Just One Incident|💀

"I love him more than I love myself...", Madie said running her fingers through the guitar strings.

"And why did he leave?" Raoul asked.

"Mom and dad quarrel..."

"It's normal everywhere, isn't it?"

"Yeah, but dad..."

"He's too much, right?"

Madie looked at him. Even though he's an imaginary boyfriend, he's perfect!

"He did something very wrong with mom."

"Very wrong?" Raoul asked shifting closer.

"He..."

Raoul let out a sigh. Maybe, it's something really bad and she don't want to remind that.

"One night, they were quarreling, because dad gave away our calendar to someone else, from our home when we were not there...I don't know how, why and what really happened..", she said with a shrill voice.

Raoul put his arms around her laying her head in his chest.

"He tortured her physically..and..and..

He called his brothers, it was almost midnight, his brothers came to our home and insulated my mom, with whatever slang came to their mouths...", she said crying into his chest.

"No, no, please, don't cry, you know your father is a mental, and your mother is still trying to bring him in the right way..."

"She is, I don't know, why, she could've left him a long time before?"

"Your mom is a warrior, girl, your mother is a real woman, she has the magical, the majestic power to change the devil inside your father."

"She really is magical", she said hugging him tightly.

"You'll see, everything will be back in place soon", he said kissing her hairs.

She looked up at him, smiling little.

"Hold on to everything", he said smiling back at her.

"Sammy once told me, if you want anything, by heart, you are sure to get it", she said sitting up.

"It is", Raoul assured nodding.

"If it really is, why isn't Sammy back? It's been seven days..."

Raoul didn't answer. He had nothing to say, knew he has works to do before this girl dies for her brother.

"Madie? What are you saying?" Ms. Doli asked from the balcony door. Mr. Naiyem was also there.

"What?" Madie asked nervously.

"You were speaking?" Mr. Naiyem asked.

"Tell them you were singing", Raoul said.

"I..uh..I was singing..", she replied hesitantly.

"Oh..", Ms. Doli said looking at Mr. Naiyem.

How beautiful they look together and how aggressive they look quarreling!

Suddenly, the bell rung. 10pm. Who could it be?

Madie looked beside finding Raoul was gone. Her heart pounded unknowingly as she rushed towards the door.

One gasp.

Another gasp.

"Sammy?!" Madie said hugging him smiling widely that she almost forgot in the past days..

Sam didn't say anything just embraced her back.
