Flowers For a Loved One (Yandere Boy)

Chapter 2

I finally arrived to the place I had been dreading all day. I'm home again, it feels different in the afternoon than in the morning. In the morning it's peaceful and quiet. I tell myself, that i'm a different person in the morning but in the afternoon reality slowly hits the closer I get to this place.

I got to the front door, just staring at it. I looked down to my feet and noticed a flower on the ground a dried white rose. A single white rose, I wonder if my father bought flowers and dropped one on the way inside but that would be extremely out of character for him.

I gulped as I took the keys that were in my hands and slowly opened the door. The atmosphere was dark and putrid, the smell of an endless pit of alcohol and a house that hasn't been cleaned in months.

"Alice" an almost whisper came from inside the apartment as the door opened, even though he called my name he didn't mean to cal for me. Shivers went down my spine as this black whole of a home, leaves me no choice but to go inside. I closed the door behind me, it was dark and I could almost see shadows trying to pull me in deeper.

He was looking for my mother.

"Ive missed you" the voice said as it came into the light of a small window, the sinister look and those blood shot eyes covered by his reading glasses. The clothes that he has been wearing for days. He began to walk towards me grabbing my arm and pulling me closer to him.

The darkness began to consume me, my bag dropped on the floor but I held onto the rose. Even if it wasn't for me, or a mistake, I cherish this rose.

His face got closer to mine "You look just like her" he muttered, his breath had a horrible stench to it. The bottles of beer scattered on the floor, some that had been there for weeks. His hand lifted and smacked me on my cheek, i collapsed to the ground.

I looked at the rose, imagining what it could mean for me, freedom. That one day I could escape the nightmare that is my life. I could hear him unbuckle his belt as he folded it and began to whip me from every direction. I kept the rose in my hand not wanting to let go. Tears streamed down my face, but I couldn't bring myself to scream for help.

Even if I did scream, no one would come to save me because this is not the first time I have been consumed by the darkness in this apartment.

"I'm only doing this because i love you" he cried maniacally as he continued to whip me until blood
started to ooze from the wounds.

Is this truly what love is?

I closed my eyes and waited for the pain to be over. For the darkness to turn into light because I know it would come. He would have to stop at some point.

"Go get me some booze from the store" he said as he lit up a cigarette.  I wiped the tears on my face and stood up from the ground, my uniform covered in blood. I ran upstairs to my room locking the door behind me. I collapsed on my knees as the tears continued to stream down my face, I want to leave but I have nowhere to go.

After I showered and got dressed, I headed out to the store to get him his booze. If I don't do what he says he will hurt me, not that it matters, he will hurt me regardless.

The convenience store wasn't too far away, as I arrived I greeted the cashier whom was an old gentle man, he had been working there since I arrived to Osaka, and we've gotten fairly close to each other since I come here almost everyday.

I walked straight to the alcoholic beverage isle, and grabbed my dads favorite beer. There was another man down this isle, he had a familiar aura to him but kept his face hidden with his hoodie. I felt like I recognized his build but I couldn't quite recognize the person. My brain has been in scrambles, I can't think straight or remember anything of importance lately.
