When the darkness and the cold night's air come, I don't want to close my eyes eventhough I feel very drowsy since the past hour. I try my best to be awake, I drank two cups of black coffee so far, to fight against the drowsiness. I'm anxious to be asleep, worrying the dream I'll get when I shut my eyes, I will meet Blaze again in dream--and that is the last thing I want right now.
I got my first part-time job after my class, I work in a loundry center located at a very pertigious area. It is surrounded by high-class apartements and offices, and the loundry where I work in, is the biggest store giving loundry services in the area. It will take more time for me to go back home, because it's quite far from my home. The salary is mouthwatering for a part-timer and the owner is a very kindhearted woman, Miss Fia is a nice and warm person who accepted me working from 5 pm until 11 pm. I will start working at Sleek Laundry tomorrow after my last class.
At first, my mom didn't prohibit me to work, she didn't agree if I must go home after 11 at night and alone riding my old bicycle through the night, but I convince her, courtsy to my karate-black belt when I was in junior class. I never afraid about going home at night by my self, but there's only one reason that always terrified me lately, the devil or should I call him, Blaze my green-orb temporary lecture.
Just by thinking about him, I feel haunted. Staying up all night, it will be another daily activities for me starting from tonight. My body, I really hope my body can endure this nocturnal torture. I must stay awake in order to be safe from that evil creature's terror.
***
I yawned for like a hundred times already, yes I did success for two night in a row, for the nocturnal-journey of mine a.k.a staying up all night. But the side effects really kicking in, at the second day--I can't keep my eyes open at class.
Thankfully, I can understand the lesson taught today, because I always listen for the first hour and sleep until the class over, and it seems the main lesson always at the very beginning of the session. Right now, I have a very black circle around my eyes, and I never use a concealer or have any.
"You must not stay up, Laila. You don't have to study until morning, this is just the beginning of the semester, take it easy!" Lidya giving me another preacher of hers while chewing her fruit salad at the cafetaria.
She doesn't like how my face looked right now. She starts giving preacher about the side effect of staying up, starting from the dull color of hair, hairloss, dark circle, dull face, acne, dry skin, black spot and so on. Like I care! Huff she doesn't know the reason why I fight to stay not asleep. The seconds my eyes shut, his shadow is appearing, I wonder if there is a spell to block this kind of things. I did browse for that actually, they said to prevent bad dream we must hang a dreamcatcher-scoff.. I think it will take more than that to repel this evil terror. Should I call a shaman to jinxed him? Oh.. But he is the devil! Could a shaman fight againts a devil?
I smile reluctantly and emptying my cold coffee. I would never tell her about Mr. DeVille or Blaze to her, because I can guarantee she will laugh on me or worse... call me crazy. Lidya has been stalking the new lecture all day and night. She tried to find any social media account of the guy but nut succeed. Everyday before the first class starts she wanders around the lecturer offices or the cafetaria. She often saw him drinking his first coffee at those places.
Suddenly the devil himself sit across our table, with his straight but intimidating face, he gracefully folds his hands on the table and looking into our direction. O... I really hope that Lidya is the object of his intimidating eyes, but my prayer always fail me, because its me he is looking at. My mind try to give me a positive thought, maybe he needs a coffee, it's a public area! I think again, my eyes wander at my surrounding, there are tons of empty table! Why he sit here! That was mind trying to betray me!
He wears a white long sleeve shirt without a tie and a white trouser. So the devil want to act as an angel-scoff, his face is too sinful to be an angel. He keep his eyes on me without blinking, he makes me suffocate inside the full-conditioned cafetaria. Lidya try to fix her hair, she display her ten thousand megawatts smile that always works to melt everyone.
"Lidya, I will go outside for fresh air, maybe at the garden. I can't breath... now," I said, standing up and bring my backpack along, I glare back at Blaze, sending him a sign. Showing him that I can fight back, I will go outside the room running away. What a coward, but I don't care. I haven't slept for two days in a row, I am bitter.
Lidya nods her head. "I come--" her sentence stopped by the time she meets Blaze eyes giving her a sultry looks. Lidya snapped, "Oh... God... it's Mr.DeVille! I can't leave him alone, he was giving me a sign, an acceptance sign! " she whisper-yelled at me with her eyes as big as saucer, "what should I do??" Now her face reddened. There is a wanting looks in her eyes, she doesn't want to leave me, yet the opportunity is too appealing to be left.
I gulp loudly, "Greet him! Eat him, whatever!! We'll meet again at class. See ya!!" I leave her flushed at the cafetaria and walk away as fast as I could. " I wish Lidya could eat him alive literally, so that I could be free from the terror. I really need a good sleep, my head is drumming loud with pain. Feels like the was a carnaval in there, a bad with a false note carnaval. I need dreamless sleep.
Arrived at the garden where colorfull trees and leaves spread out beautifully with benches at every each corner, I walk speeding through the mahogany, flambouyant, frangipani, and pine trees, and breathe in the fresh oxygen provided by the trees. I am realived to escape his gaze, at once I want to fight him, while my heart beating fast and my brain told me to fight back erveryhing that he has done to me, but my heart cowers, too afraid to be in the same room as him."You can't runaway from me, Laila."I turn sideway and suprised, Blaze's tall figure stand right in front of me. Spontaniously I want to step back, but I can't move my feet... again... I can't feel my feet. I hate this.Is it... another dream? Is it real?"There won't be any difference, whether this is a dream or not... cause I'll always be by your side," his big hands touch my face... warm. "Don't stay up again," he said softly, it
The relaxing lavender scent and the beautiful scenery in front of my eyes, awed me. I want to roll and feel the purple field my self. When I think about it, without me realizing it--I am rolling aroung among the beautiful purple flower. I smile unknowingly and look up to the forget-me-not bright blue sky with cloud spread randomly-white like cotton. The cool breeze flows through my face, my neck, my arm and my open feet. I realize I wear a long flowery dress. I want to stay like this forever. Peace, calm and soothing.Suddenly Blaze bows his head right in front of mine, his fresh breath warms my face. His green eyes looking at me with a tender look, his smile-his beautiful face. "Do you like it?""Yes, I like it! This is... perfect, Blaze...!""Then, give me a present for making you happy...."I smile and welcome his kiss. Our lips touch and
I tried to concentrate, I process what Lidya has said. The lecturer was young and she has black pair of eyes? But why I saw different? I blink my eyes, trying to process her sentence. "What did you said?"Lidya cross her hands in front of her chest. "It should be ME, Laila... to ask you that question. You better sleep at night... you ARE hallucinating in bright day, and worse-at the class.""I'm not hallucinating or even dreaming!!" Now I'm confused. "That was... English, right? Our previous class? Teaching tenses?"Lidya nods her head. "YESS." Her eyes are bulging big, she has a bad temper after the lost-opportunity to flirt with DeVille moments ago."So it was not a dream!!" I said agaibn.Lidya frowns her forehead... and laughs. "Maybe there's something wrong with your eyes, you better wear eyeglasses!! Or... You need a vitamin, are you sick?"I gulp... sho
I am stunned and absolutely pissed-hearing his husky voice on the line, my heart's rate rises in a split second.What should I do?"You just have to come here, and fetch this packet of clothes. It's your responsibility, or you'll be fired from Sleek Laundry?"I strengthen my grip of the phone's cable. I could hear the thunder roaring wildly outside. It will be raining hard by the time I go back to the apartement. But, the sly devil is right, it IS my responsibility, and I don't want to be fired. This is my first day working, and I don't want to ruin it."Come to my penthouse, top floor of the building. I will be waiting, on my bed... naked, and ready for you!" He whispered the last words.I hear a click on the phone--the devil cut off the line... the devil... hissshh!! Can't voodoo work for him? I want to stab the doll alone then. Hundreds of time. I, making a mental note to find s
I stand firm-too stubborn to do his bidding and looking back at him with different looks to the beautiful face man with evil heart--he sits relaxly leaning his shoulder to the sofa, his eyes intensely looking at my everypart. I will not do his order to sit!! Never!! I will take the packet and go-far away from here."Laila!! Sit here!!" He commanded me."No!! Where is my packet??" I stand still, too stubborn to obey his bidding.He never lifts his gaze away from me. And, suddenly, without me realizing it, my feet move they're own accord, walking forward-heading to his direction.What the.."Stop!!" What happened to me??"Stop!!"Blaze smirks, his green eyes leisurely enjoying the view. I really hate this."Stop!""Stop!""Stop!"I repel the mantra over and over again, but it seems like my brain refuses to deliver the order to my
Blaze lifted Laila through a door and led her to a bedroom. He throwed down Lailla into the matress. He pressed down his front body to Laila's."Wha...what are you do...doing?" I asked, freakinh out with the intimacy."It's me and you...pleasuring our body, one to another," he answered smirking down to a blushed Laila."Don't you dare!!" I threatened,"I..I wil..""Will what? What will you do my Laila," He asked and moved his face closer to Laila, "all you have to do is enjoy my touch".He tried to kiss me, trapping both my hands into his bigger ones. But when my lips just milimeters away, I turned my face to the left and the right. Angry he hold my face forward and kissed me hard and wild. I tried to bit his lips by opening my mouth, but that move proven to be wrong. Blaze deepen the kiss and entered my mouth. His tounge touched my tounge sparking an unusual electricity inside of my body.
Blaze lifted me, and took me to his car. An expensive red color car made from European country. He made me sit next to him at the passanger seat. The car has been personalized with the owner's taste of color. It has all-grey-premium leather skin seats, a dim lighting at the back seat and a simple-yet sophisticated dashboard. The cars shout expensive very loud, even Laila could notice it."You don't know my house!" I state absentmindedly."I Do know your house! Your room, even your underwear drawer!" Blaze answered looking straight to the empty street. It was raining hard and dark, yet he drove very fast."I know about your size, your top and bottom size. I know about the strange position at your front teeth, I know about a scar hidden under your hips, I know about your sensitive spots.. All of it.. Wanna hear?"This devil! How dare him!I kept silent until I
