Chapter 6

Author: Perfect Timing
My heart sank at the news.

Even though I had anticipated a day like this, it still felt unreal to hear about it.

“Alright.”

Before I left, I put on a thick layer of foundation and added dark eye shadow to make myself look sick.

I wanted to sell the act.

I was happy with what I saw in the mirror.

It was already late when I reached the hospital. Bella tried to stand up when she saw me.

But she huffed and puffed and could not do it. She stopped trying and looked a little embarrassed.

“Eleanor, you’re finally here!”

She started crying.

I felt immensely satisfied as I looked at her huge frame.

When I walked over to her, I smelled something bad.

The smell came from the woman lying next to her father’s feet.

Bella’s mother had gained a lot of weight. Her mouth hung agape.

The horrible smell was coming from her mouth.

Bella looked a little embarrassed when she saw me trying to cover my nose.

“Eleanor, where are your parents?”

To continue with the act, I pretended to

    I was flustered as I rushed to comfort her. “Are you alright?”However, the hatred in her eyes made me pause. After a long while, she caught her breath and snapped, “Oliver is a piece of trash! Eleanor, where’s the camera I gave you?”I stared at her in surprise. “It’s at home.“Why? What’s wrong?”She took a deep breath. “You should head home and destroy that camera.“Remember, you have to destroy it completely!” After that, she hailed a cab. “I need to head home now.“I’ll call you later.” When I saw her leaving, I felt relaxed. [Alright, you can stop texting me now.]After I texted fake Oliver, I pulled the drawer open. The polaroid camera that Bella gave me was inside. As for the texts that she had seen earlier, I had fabricated them. I knew Bella too well. She was stupid and vain. I looked forward to the moment when she and Oliver would turn on each other. I looked at the camera in my hand and let the memories wash over me. Apparently, if I destroyed thi

    The fiasco finally ended when Bella paid the man fifty thousand dollars. The crowd had dispersed. Things had finally calmed down a little when Bella’s mother started to eat bugs. Bella stomped her foot in anger. “Mom, what are you doing?!”Her mother had lost her sanity. She could not even recognize her own daughter.She stared at Bella with blank eyes and drooled. “I’m hungry. I want to eat!” Bella teared up. “Mom!” The funeral ended hastily. After all, Bella was taking care of her mother on her own while she took care of the funeral arrangements. She was overwhelmed. After the funeral ended, Bella finally decided to send her mother to a mental hospital. A day before admitting her, Bella took her mother for a full-body check-up.The doctor told her that everything was normal. There was nothing wrong with her. Despite the results, we could all tell that something was seriously wrong with Bella’s mother. After she sent her mother to the mental hospital, Bella wanted

    I did not return to the office. Instead, I went home. I quickly fell asleep on my bed. I was mentally drained. I was afraid of making the wrong move that would send me back to hell. Thankfully, everything was still under my control. I did not expect Oliver to call me and woke me up.“Eleanor, quick, come over!“Bella’s mother has gone insane!” Then, he sent me a video. It was interesting, to say the least. Bella’s mother knelt on the ground and ate a sparrow. The crowd was terrified as they ran away. However, I noticed Bella standing in the corner and gulping excitedly. When I reached there, the police were already at the scene. They quickly brought the situation under their control. Bella’s mother was curled up on the ground. She was not responding to anyone. She did not allow anyone to touch her, not even Bella. A few sparrow feathers were spilling out of her mouth, and her mouth and hands were covered in blood. She murmured incoherently. She should ha

    She could not control her emotions. Her hair looked a little frazzled. “Bella, what’s wrong with you?“Why is it that I can only take a photo of my family with the camera and nothing else?”Bella seemed a little anxious when she realized that she had lost control of her emotions.She immediately said, “No! No, that’s not what I meant.”I stared intently at her, as if I could read her mind. She licked her lips and apologized to me. “Eleanor, you can, of course, take photos of whatever you want with the camera I gave you!“But I really wanted you to take a photo with your family using that camera.“The films are quite expensive. I know you’re rich and able to afford them, but I hoped you’d use these particular films for you and your parents.”I looked at her. I could see that her forehead was beaded with a thin layer of sweat because she was very nervous.She was trembling uncontrollably, too. Finally, I agreed to her request. It was only then that she seemed to relax.

    I spent the next week at work and refused to meet Oliver. He was happy about it, as he kept meeting up with Bella. Then, Bella posted something on social media. Even though she deleted it immediately, I still managed to see it.[Help! What should I do if my family starts growing fur?]She had even attached a photo of her parents. I felt like it was time to visit the hospital again. It was 10 a.m. when I reached, and the hospital was just starting to get busy.I had informed Bella that I was coming to visit that morning, so she was waiting for me at the entrance. “Hi, Eleanor, showing up empty-handed?” She stared at me in annoyance. I smiled awkwardly. “I did prepare something, but I forgot it in the office. I’ll bring it over on my next visit.” She looked pleased after that. I followed her into the hospital ward. It was only then that I noticed the two people on the hospital beds. They looked very different. Her father was very skinny and resembled a monkey. He
