"Please, let's just go home–" But they were adamant to question her. She cursed under her breath before closing her eyes."You kissed me all of a sudden! I didn't agree to it," she reverted the blame to the man who kissed her but he scoffed. "You kissed back," he retorted. "I did not!" She breathed heavily as she angrily looked at him. Silvester could only hold back the fist he clenched from punching his brother. The three of them are in the freezing weather yet none moved an inch. "Let's go." Silvester grabbed her hand yet his brother was being stubborn and stopped them. "She's coming home with me," he uttered in determination. The two men argue with one another as Dianne's left hand is held by Silvester while her hand is held by his brother. She was staring into oblivion, tired and annoyed by this. "Enough!" she screamed before pulling her hands away. The two of them stopped with their nonsense and stared at her. She sighed before stomping her way to Silvester's car and getting
She opened her car door before grabbing a gun from the hidden drawers before closing it back again. The presence of the person stalking her can be felt by her. The night was ominous while she tried finding a shovel nearby. The person was still following her. She was being cautious with her moves while the gun was hidden from anyone's sight. She heavily sighed before moving forward and stopping in her tracks. She pulled out her phone and called Silvester. He said his greetings but she pretended to have a different conversation. "Yeah, I'm alone. My car is stuck so I have no way of leaving," she uttered before kicking a pebble away."What?" He was confused."I might have to walk for a while. Yeah," she murmured with a disappointed voice before putting the phone back in her pocket as she started walking. At least if something does happen, a recording will be there as evidence. The long shadows of the cars around her while the feeling of the cold wind and snow was making her tremble bu
THREE IN the morning, Dianne suddenly woke up from her bed with sweat running down her neck. Her breathing was ragged and it still felt like she was dreaming. Her vision was woozy as if she had just ridden a rollercoaster. She held her head before looking around the room and checking the time. She groaned in frustration before covering herself in blankets from the cold. Silvester returned her to her home once they were done with their… 'date' as one can call it. She fell asleep immediately though nightmares consumed her throughout the night. Chloe has been living rent-free inside her mind and it gives countless jumpscares in her dreams. Not only is she a nuisance in real life, but also in dreams. Dianne fell back asleep and woke up at around nine. She yawned loudly before looking for her car keys. She felt so tired yet had to go to work and deal with, well, finding a new assistant. With no idea how to fix her relationship with her friend, there's no choice but to find a different
THE DAY was as bright as the sun. The heat was almost unbearable to handle yet Dianne was sitting comfortably on her chair inside her office. While her mood is the opposite, she felt gloomy and dull compared to the weather. The sudden knock on her door distracted her from working. "Come in," she uttered before sighing. One of her employees came in with her head bowed. A bouquet of flowers was in front of her as she held it carefully as she brought it inside. "What's that?" Dianne asked as she eyed the flowers. "A man dropped this off earlier and told me to give it to you." Confusion filled her as she thought of Mr. Romano doing this. That man stopped messing with her but now came back when Chloe was out of power. "Throw it out." Her command stunned the woman but nodded her head. She was about to exit the room when Dianne received a message. "Wait." The woman stopped at her boss' command. "Hand it over," she murmured and her employee smiled before putting the bouquet on her desk.
SHE WAS walking as if someone was following her, almost afraid of her own shadow as she walked through the hospital halls, trying to find the place where her biological father was situated. Until she eventually found the door. She held the doorknob tightly with her mind clouded in doubt. She breathed heavily before gathering the courage and opening the door. The cold air from the inside greeted her body. Her eyes scanned the room before going in and closing the door behind her. She looked around the place until her eyes landed on the man sleeping in a hospital bed. He was taken out of prison and charges were dropped because of Kronos' influence and money. So now, he's recovering in the hospital. She gulped as she held the bed while examining his face. He looks similar to her yet some features were different, probably from her mother whom she's unsure who is. She felt unsettled by the words uttered by Silvester's mother that it disgusts her. The room was silent until a doctor enter
PEOPLE have been searching for the whole night, trying to find her. Every bridge and river they came across, they made sure to search the area to find where she was. The media has caught on to the events that she went missing after falling off a bridge. But there were still no clear signs of her. "What if she intentionally jumped?" one of the people observing the police uttered that Kronos heard. "Maybe she didn't want to get married," one speculated, making the crowd gasp. He continued listening to the recording of the phone call Silvester and Dianne shared while walking down the bridge to meet his brother who was scanning the water. "She's not dead! More should search the area to the end of the stream to find her!" Silvester screamed in anger which no one had seen before. He was a calm lawyer that maintains his emotions in tough times but he's losing his temper now. Kronos breathed heavily before closing his eyes. "Silvester," he called out before opening his eyes. His b
THE BIRDS were quiet as they watched over the people below that were taking the body of the deceased to an ambulance. No one was uttering a word, just pure silence that was louder than anything. Their silence showed their emotions more than any word can express. The frozen dead body that was near the river showed no face, it was beaten to a pulp and unrecognizable. The woman's body resembles Dianne and they feared for the worst. Their heavy breaths created mists in front of their mouths as the cold hugged them. At last, one of them couldn't hold it any longer. "I c-can't–" Angelica broke down crying as she started running back to the bridge. Harrison ran after her, leaving the brothers standing there while looking at the frozen river. "I'll avenge her death," Silvester uttered. "So you think it's her body?" His brother nodded before sighing. "Everything matches her features. The tattoos on her back, the countless scars from bullets, and lashes on her body are almost identica
SHE WAS walking like a feather falling from a nest. She was silent as she can ever be as her body moved out of the room she woke up in. Her eyes scanned parts of the room and the house was unfamiliar. It was smaller than it seemed to be at first. The porcelain white walls complement the wood floor and furniture that goes along with the pink accent of some of the decorations. She clenched her jaw before spotting the rows of stairs going down. Everything was silent, the halls were dim as there was only minimal lighting. It was ominous but she had no other choice but to take steps down the stairs, hoping to not see anyone or if she does, she hopes they were not an enemy. As she reached the bottom, she heard someone humming a song as the water from a sink continued running. Everything downstairs looked like it was from the 70s because of the old chairs, and bells for the doors. She clenched her waist as the pain of walking was getting to her. The soreness of her body was so unbearable
