XIENNE
A sudden flashback came up to my mind.
“You are beautiful, Xienne. But you know what? There is something with you that I didn't like,” said Samantha.
I looked at her. Did she approach me in my sit to say that thing? However, I just looked at her. I did not speak. I do not dare to fight back on the things they do. I don't have the courage.
She knew in herself that she could not get any answer from me. “You are also smart. There’s a lot of reasons to envy you. But you’re pathetic,” said Samantha.
I will never retaliate. Because revenge is only for people with narrow brains, the capacity of the mind is small. I am not that low. I won’t stoop down on their levels.
I was so annoyed when she hit my forehead with her index finger.
“What? Won't you say anything? Say something. Make me mad,” she said. Emphasizing every word that comes from her fucking mouth.
I stood up abruptly that created a loud irritating sound to the ears. They startled. A few seconds later, they all shouted.
“FIGHT BACK! FIGHT BACK! ” They chanted.
Tsk. I won’t satisfy you all. I will not fight back.
"Tsk. What a stupid fool," said Clark.
They are all waiting for my next move. I looked at Samantha who has a little smile on her lips. I exhaled heavily. Without doing anything, I left the room.
Cold water poured over me as I walked out the door. I ignored the coldness I am feeling and even managed to see who had poured me a weight of water.
It's Ace. He even laughed when he poured it on me. I heard my classmates laugh out loud. The students are looking at me now.
Why are they like this? Is this how college students think? They are like children. I wonder how big their brains are.
I wiped my tears. This is already too much. They are overdoing it. I was kind to them, I managed to be good at them even though it was hard and then they would repay me like this for my kindness. It's not right!
My mom was right, it is not good to be always nice and kind. Because others will abuse you. I went back into the room and grabbed my bag. I am going home. I walked quickly and ignored the guard who was calling my name several times.
It is not yet time to go out, I know. But because I was so annoyed and angry, I am ready to ditch my classes for today.
END OF FLASHBACK
That happened last year. Even I was very mad at that time, I still forgave them even if I did not hear even a single sorry from them before. They are not even sorry for what they are doing.
I do not know that I will also eat what I had said that I will not avenge no matter what happens. But I failed.
I was at a bar with my classmates. I was just forced to come along. They forced me. Why? Because they would not have a servant without me.
And also, I took this chance to take revenge. Now is the best time to repay Samantha who is now a bit dizzy.
I had been watching her for a long time now. I have been planning to kill her for a long time. I pretended to be another man and I sent her a message every day.
She had no idea that I was the one behind her secret admirer. I'm glad Samantha is a fool.
I took my phone from my bag and typed a message for her.
To Samantha:
“Meet me at the abandoned house near the mini stop grocery."
Soon as I sent the message, she grabs her phone from the table and giggled. Stupid.
“Guys, I need to go. Joshua wants to see me,” she said.
I rolled my eyes.
“Who’s Joshua?” asked Jen
Me. I am Joshua. Hmmm.
“Remember the guy I've been telling you? The one who texts me every day? I think this is my secret admirer. And I think he’s handsome. Do you know that? HAHAHAHA. His typings every time he texts me are always complete.”
Her friends laughed. “Okay, just be careful. Don't trust that man too much," said Kate.
Samantha nodded. I stood up. I am alone here in a corner. I no longer bothered to say goodbye to them. They also do not care, anyway.
I went out to her first. I hailed a taxi and was told to drop me at a nearby ministop. I even saw in the side mirror of the car Samantha coming out of the bar.
I received a text from her saying she’s on her way. I didn’t bother to type a reply.
I covered the hood of my jacket over my head. It is ten o'clock in the evening. I even checked in my bag to see if I was carrying the knife. When I looked at the driver in front of him, he glanced at me and seemed to have something to say.
"Why?" I will ask.
"Nothing, miss." Then he smiled at me. "I just wanted to ask if you are still studying?"
I nodded. “Yes. College student.”
He nodded slowly and smiled. “That is great. What course are you taking? ”
"Nursing." I proudly smiled.
A killer nurse. Cool, isn’t it?
"Good for you. You already know what you want then. My son is about to graduate from Senior High but he still does not know what he wants to get in college."
I guess that's how it really is. Many young people are not yet sure what they will get when it comes to college. Others do not know if it will be practical because of lack of money or get what they really want.
Others do not really know what they really want to be.
"Is that so? Let your child think about what he or she wants. Maybe he will know it soon. ”
He stopped talking and just smiled. I felt my cellphone vibrate in my pocket so I picked it up immediately.
From Samantha:
"Please, reply."
Tsk. Can't she wait? I just don't know if she can still be excited about what I will do to her later. The driver stopped the vehicle in the front of ministop.
I immediately paid for my pair and thanked him. "Take care, future nurse." I smiled at what the old man said. It almost melted my heart knowing that someone called me as a future nurse. In another word, he's looking forward that I will be one.
I do hope that his son will know what he wants to be as soon as possible. His Dad is already aging. I am sure that few more years, he can not go to work anymore.
I walked slowly towards the abandoned house. There are no people on this street. Houses are happened to be far apart and if anyone asks for help, no one will hear.
CCTVs are no longer working. The existing establishments here have long been abandoned by the owners.
Upon arrival, I immediately sent a message to Samantha saying that I was already here and waiting for her. I wonder what will be her reaction once she sees me here and not the Joshua she was expecting to see.
It is not my fault if she's too stupid. She is already the one facing her death. She's the one who came nearer to it and not the death itself. That is the problem for people who do not think wisely before doing anything.
She fell from my trap that I did not think that will really do. Any minute from now, her blood will scatter here at the abandoned house. No one will hear, no one will help and I think that is the best for me but worse for her.
See you in a bit, Dear Samantha.
XIENNEI went to the dirty sink of the house. There are no left things here. I saw gallons of water at the bottom of the sink. It's good so that I can wash my hands later.I heard the door slowly open. A smile flashed on my lips."Joshua?" said Samantha.I slowly uncovered my head by lowering the hood of the jacket then faced her. There was a look of shock on her face, she did not expect to see me."Surprise, bitch."My two hands are inside the pocket of the hoodie jacket. I am holding the knife inside. I gave her a demonic smile.“What are you doing here? Are you alone?” she asked.“Have you seen anyone else here besides me? No one, right? I'm just alone. Stupid.”His eyes narrowed. She crossed her arms. "I am expecting someone here."She stood u
XIENNE"Seriously, why do you look frustrated earlier? Is there something that happened to you?" asked Nikolai.We are still here outside of the mini grocery. Silenced enveloped the both of us for I did not answer his question. I looked at him, never breaking it. I examined his whole face that is undeniably handsome though he looks like someone who should not be trusted easily.“Nothing. I just have a very personal problem and I don't want to talk about it. Quit asking.”He shrugged his shoulders and got some chips and immediately put them inside his mouth. He chewed it too noisy that I found it so infuriating.I rolled my eyes. He then laughed which made the chunks inside his mouth go out.Yuck.“What's so funny? And can you please eat cleanly? You're so gross. At least, serve manners while eating,” I said.He wiped the excessed chunks of the
XIENNE“OH MY GOSH! SAMANTHAAAAA!!!” Jen shouted the moment we came here in the abandoned house.We came here with the police officials.The shock was evident in their faces. They could not say anything for they can not believe what happened to Samantha.She is almost unrecognizable. Her eyes are still wide open, looking at the ceiling. Some of my classmates vomited, even Clark. The stink of Samantha’s body is can not be accepted by our body system.“All of you, go out. We are going to take care of her body. And, Miss Jen, one of the detectives will ask you for some question regarding of her last words before she left you,” the Chief Police shouted that made us all leave the house.My classmates are all silent. Who would believe that their Dear Samantha will be found dead and almost unrecognizable.Samantha is pretty and my stabs made her face pretty bad. It i
XIENNE“What’s the update with Beatrice and Samantha’s death?” asked Lexy.I never thought she would be serious about being friends with me. She always shadows me wherever I am going. It’s been a week since Samantha’s death and they still plop Jen as the primary suspect which was good for me.“I don’t know. Beatrice’s case is close to being a case close. They can’t find any evidence which can point to someone as a suspect,” I answered. “Meanwhile, about Samantha, the officers are currently approaching Jen’s boyfriend if she’s really with him that the murder happened.”Lexy was constantly swaying her feet while we are sitting here on one of the benches in the Science garden. She turned her gaze up at me, examining my face.“I really admire your beauty and your wit,” she confided.She really does speak randomly.“Tsk, shut up, Lexy. Go back to your class, you might be
XIENNE“I think I like you, Xienne,” Clark whispered.I looked intently at his eyes, only to see sincerity with it. He smiled a little.Is it true? He really does like me?We are here at the back of the University, there are not many students here.I remained silent for his sudden confession bug me. Clark had been good to me since we were sophomores. Now, he’s confessing to me.I won’t deny it, I like him, too. He has the looks, nevertheless, I think I am just infatuated by his looks.“Can I court you?” he asked.I blinked my eyes, my mouth was hung open for I do not know what to say. He is waiting for my answer. I breathed heavily.“Uh! Clark, I will be honest to you, I have a huge crush on you but I do not think I can commit. Studying is my first priority and being in a relationship is the least. I’m sorry but I n
XIENNEDear Diary,Now I already have a plan on how will I kill Ace. Though my plan would be so hard to make it happen successfully I know it would be all worth it. I trust myself. I will seduce him and get his trust and attention then I will do my dirty little plan. Thinking of it gives me a huge excitement. Surely, killing him will give to me great satisfaction. But for now, I need to do my first step. It is befriending them all to earn their trust in me. I will play good and kind just like I was before. A good girl. I don’t care if they will abuse my kindness again, the most important thing is making them all stupid and then killing them all. No one dared to be good at me from them, and they deserve what I am going to them, D. Watch and I will make all my plans happen. Wait for it, D. That’s all for my entry today. Got to go!-XienneI closed my notebo
XIENNEIt’s getting dark but I am still here at the University. I am on the rooftop, breathing fresh air that gives a soothing feeling. Knowing the fact that maybe there’s only a few students, professors, or staff here in school left, did not give me fear. I would be really glad if I will know that I am the only one left here. Being alone somehow gives different comfort. You will have time to think, clearly and wisely.A felt someone from behind. However, I didn’t move. I just feel around. I waited for him or her to move or approach me. I wasn’t scared because he didn’t know what I could do to him.“Haven’t you come home yet? It’s getting late,” said Nikolai.I just looked at him, I did not speak. I sighed heavily. I thought I can be alone here just for today. I do not feel like interacting with anyone.
XIENNEIt’s already midnight yet I still can not sleep. I am thinking if I could continue my plan to Ace. I know it would be really hard because I still need to make him fall in love with me first. I need to get his full attention, make him fall deeper and harder.Meanwhile, about Nikolai, I never thought he is a member of a fraternity. I just saw him as a weird and creepy guy, that’s all. Nothing much.I still can get off my mind what he had said to me before when I first saw him. He told me that he can see me. That he is watching me. Whatever the means about that, it really gives goosebumps to me.I am thinking that he is not just a normal guy. So I need to be careful around him. Who knows if he is stalking me? I know, I am too paranoid for thinking like that but I need to be extra careful.A text from someone pulled me back to reality. I did not waste any time and checked who it
