We sat in my bedroom as I waited for her to tell me why she called me here. She stopped me from entering the gateway to go and see her brothers that she needed me to do something. She wanted to tell me something important I needed to know before I enter foe world.Why was it that all the dreadfour had something to tell me when we meet? Hope talked to me about something that gave me hope. Thought gave me something I needed to think about. Only Death never spoke to me.Probably because he was still hurt by what my parents did to him. Which is understandable because they were only in this state because they betrayed them. I can imagine what he was feeling because that was how I felt about what Maria and Pit did to me.I looked at Void as she paced up and down. Watching me in the side. We both have no time for this. She knows her brothers are getting worried because it took me the all day to talk to them about Revoc’s location. She actually came to get me. Or was this whole thing planned

I sat in the room alone. Trying to think about what Void just told me. She decided that I needed time to think about things. To think about what I was going to do and the best way to deal with my emotions. To be able to separate my emotions from my actions. Because that will supposedly allow the carnage to kill me.When I asked her about the carnage, she just told me I will find out about it when I go to foe. That was also what Carl and Roland told me about the things they thought I was not ready to hear. That it will be better I find out for myself.But after she left, she allowed me to cry on her shoulders. To let it out as she said it. That Maria broke my heart beyond anything she had seen so far. And who am I to argue? She is the damn goddess of sex.She told me I was trying to act strong, and that everything was okay by chasing after what I shouldn’t be chasing at. Yes, Revoc followed me, but she told me I might as well want to follow him and punch him. Because at the moment I ne

“I told you guys what you wanted me to do will cost me. Look what you have done to me. I shouldn’t have listened to you guys,” Maria spoke, with tears streaming down her cheeks.Her parents sat opposite her. Listening as she complained to them about what happened at the party.“If you didn’t make me want to sleep with Pit because you wanted his father to work with you, then I would still be with Justine. He was a good-for-nothing son-in-law. But look at what happened here. At least he loved me,” she cried all the more.They just looked at her sadly. If only they didn’t force their daughter to sleep with another man for money, then none of this would have happened. Maria would still be with Justine and she would have been living the life of an even rich woman.But all that was gone now. There was no going back to it.“I’m sorry, my daughter. You know, we were only trying to do what is good for the family. We thought you being with Pit will help us since his father’s company does well,”

I looked at her as she looked down. Avoiding my questions. I mean, what the hell made her think she could follow me here? I was already worried about the dangers in this place. The carnage the place holds was worrying me enough. And just last night I was talking about her with Void, and here she is in the land of foe with me.I tried opening another gateway, but it was for nothing. Nothing worked at the moment. I looked at the dreadfour but they just gestured their hands. signaling they can do nothing about that.“There is only one gateway out of foe. You can’t open your gateway,” Carl spoke, and I saw the terror in Maria’s eyes.Before I could even speak, Joseph began, “we will leave you two alone. You have a lot to talk about. Guys, let’s give them space. We need to find shelter because the sky looks like it will start puling down soon,” he spoke and gestured for them to walk ahead of us. Keeping them from earshot.I just glared at him as he smiled my way. That was why he was smilin

I didn’t even know what to say to her claims. On one hand, I would believe her because they sounded believable. And she looked like she was telling the truth. She even cried as we walked, but kept that between us. Everyone seemed to be busy with whatever they were talking about.But again, I couldn’t believe her because she was her. She could lie because I wouldn’t allow her in my heart, she thought the only option for me to allow her in my heart was by lying to why she did what she did. And Joseph was helping her with that.I still haven’t talked to him about what he has just done. Because this was stupid. Allowing her to follow to the land I myself had no idea of was not clever or helping me. He just killed me, actually. Giving me more things to worry about.Then she brought up the thing of her getting married to me even when I was poor. That she didn’t consider my status then, so why would she care about me having money now? And I have to say, this was convincing. I just walked in
