The nervous look on his face, the anxious eyes that stared at her, his puzzled lips that desired to respond. He was shocked though why she asked him that question. Could that be why she was so sober that she couldn't control her tears.Alex licked his lower lips and stared back into her eyes. What was he going to say? “I love you?” If he truly loves her, why was he treating her like a jerk and making her believe that there was no such thing as love.He shoved his face towards the drawer and took the glass of water she had offered him earlier so that he could take with the painkiller tablets which she prescribed to him. He didn't take the drugs, but only gulp the water and then stare at her again.It was like though those eyes of hers were monitoring every move he made, and it made him uncomfortable. Perhaps, he should have a quiet place where he could think about his life and his behavioral aspect mostly towards Natalie“Why do you ask?” He muttered with a sad gaze at her, and she sni
The ringing sound of the doorbell woke him up. He muffled and jerked up from the bed, feeling all lazy, tired and stressed. He scrutinized the room and realized where he slept, expecting to see Natalie beside him, but she wasn't there.A sigh left him as he recalled her question of last night. He wondered how she was going to react if she figures out that her sister was dead.He folded his lips and exhaled. Somehow, he felt like apologizing for his mistakes and try his best to bring out the good once again in him. Alex shut his eyes as her tears from the earlier hours disturbed him. Perhaps, those tears hurt him as they sank into his heart that he had to answer questions which had been lingering around.While he was asleep, he kept dreaming about her, he noted that they really didn't have any fun moment with her, and it made him more guilty. Perhaps, that look on her face made him realize how his relationship with her had been and now, he wishes to make it up to her.“Natalie” he mutt
He scoffed, sniffed and snickered as he couldn't believe the fact that Natalie was with someone else, and it was actually Rodger. Seriously? When did they start their love story behind his back? The fact that he was obsessed with this woman made everything more tough that he cursed at everything around him.Tears streamed down his eyes as anger and jealousy filled him up that he couldn't control himself from screaming in the rain.Guess the passerby must have wondered if a mad man was in the rain as well. The fact that he realizes that the woman he loves was cheating on him got him pissed off that he was unable to bear the grief. He paced slowly back home. His wet body plastered everywhere with water, that he didn't mind as he was void of thoughts. The memories of seeing Rodger and Natalie kiss made him madden and nervous at the same time. He stood at the porch staring at his mansion which seemed like a cage that he needed to break free. Everyone was leaving him, and now he felt that
His intentions was to end everything and now, he was intending to commit suicide. He got to the rooftop and glanced below his mansion as he could view the height at which he stood. There was feeling of remorse written all over him that he couldn't think anylonger but just wish for death to come. His heart stopped beating at every place that his eyes gaze upon made his skin scorch hot. His eyes took a glimpse at the sky which was cleared of the cloud. Perhaps, it was anticipating for what Alex's next plan could be. It not surprising that the sky would bear witness of his death because it was going to be in an open space. Certainly, he thinks that's the only way to end his guilty conscience or the grief, betrayal among other things that had taken place in his life.It would just be perfect with no one asking or blaming him from killing himself after all, his execution might be death or life imprisonment. He was standing on the guardrail. The rain had subsided and only the cool breeze b
It was like though everyone was suspicious of the other as the state was unrest. Rumors had it that he must have vanished into thin air and would appear with full vengeance to destroy the world.He was now becoming a myth or perhaps legend of evil. More appalling was the fact that his disappearance was causing chaos in the state.Rodger was at his place of work, though, he hadn't given up yet on Alex because none of their safety could be guaranteed as long as Alex was still out there. His eyes were on the screen of his laptop as he was seated close to the window.What he was busy with was trying a possible way to track Alex down. He had been having sleepless nights since the disappearance of Alex. Deep down, Rodger could feel that Alex could come out of the blue and attack both him and Natalie.That was something he was avoiding because judging from what was going on. He believes Alex wouldn't let this moment by. It must have gotten to Alex's ears that he and Natalie were now together
"You killed my sister, made my life miserable, became a serial killer and now you're claiming rights! I hate you so much! How could you despicable man! I should have killed you when you requested me to" She nagged struggling to get lose from the chair. He shrugged his shoulders and rolled his eyes around the place."You're at fault also, for cheating and I hate cheaters... I love you so badly...""You're obsessed Alex! It's not love! And I would never love you don't you understand!" She raged groaning as hatred for this man possessed her mind and head. How could he say he loves her when all he does was to hurt her.He wasn't going to get away with his crimes and she would see to it that he doesn't. However, how was she going to do that when it seems like she had been caged in this place and having nowhere or a means of escaping."It's love and I hate you seeing you with other men, have a taste of your medicine with your lover" he raged ruffling his hair as Natalie squints her eyes at
While she spoke, Alex recalls when he was young and during those moments, he recalled when he pretends to be a naughty boy and cause trouble in the neighborhood.Natalie was always with him and the fact that she always stood by him gave him hope that he was never going to be alone, and it made him feel guilty that he was doing that. Alex glanced at the window as he was lost in imaginations over what was going on. Though it was frightening, but he could tell that he could make a change. He suddenly remembered in his neighborhood how he plays around and make his parents yell often, Tim before relocating with his stepfather and siblings who were pains in the neck.The chirping of birds, rowdy crowds and bright display outside the plane made him relieved, it felt like he was in a new world, away from the darker side.He strained his body, made a twist of the waist, swung his arm and smiled with satisfaction. Sitting for long hours made him sick, and he was glad the whole scenario was over
Natalie woke up only to realize that she was still with Alex, though in her imaginations, she had slept off before the arrival. She wished everything could just be normal but she was abducted and could do nothing about it. Natalie could perceive that he had brought her to another room.The bright illumination from the florescent light which shone from above snapped her eyes into full force. Her eyes gazed at the white ceiling and peaceful quietness.The sweet fragrance lingering around the room caused her nose to sniff. Her eyes rolled down and met the blanket she was covered with. It was different and this time, she had clothes on.Natalie cussed at why she still has to meet the same scene and there was no going back. Immediately, she flipped the blanket off her wondering if she had woken up in another place.She rolled her eyes, and gasped when she recalls what transpired last night. It could only mean she was still in this stranger's house. Frustration sway all over her face as th
