KARMA: FALLING FOR MY ENEMY'S SON 10. THE FIRST DEATH
Those who are heartless, once cared too much…I'm startled awake by the loud hurried banging on my bedroom door. Slowly sitting up straight, I tossed the covers aside and crawled out of my bed. I sleepingly made my way to the door and wrapped my hand around the handle. I pulled it open all the while rubbing my eyelids with my fingers in an attempt to ward the droopiness away. “What is it??” I asked, suppressing a yawn.“Have you seen the news??” Bruno asked, pushing past me and shamelessly let himself into my bedroom.“No, why?? What happened??” I asked, letting go of the doorknob and walked back to my bed. I had only just slept not long ago after spending the entire night just writing. I planned to stay in bed today but well... Bruno happened as always. When did he even get here??“When did you even get here??” I voiced out my thoughts but instead of an answer, Bruno grabbed my TV remote from my bedside table and turned the TV on. With my brows furrowed together in confusion, I watc
KARMA: FALLING FOR MY ENEMY'S SON 11. REAL BETRAYAL
You get what you give, remember that shit…With those questions in mind, I quickly rolled out of my bed and ran out into the hallway. I tiptoed down the stairs to the living room, where most of mom's screams could be heard. Stopping on our living room's entrance, my eyes widened when I saw her crying on the cold floor with Arthur, Lorenz and his best friend Shane in the room standing over her. As usual the ring leader, also known as my so-called boyfriend, had his hands tucked away in his pockets while his best friend did his dirty work. Shane had his gun pointed at my brother to stop him from approaching mom. I stared at Arthur in disbelief, there was no better word to describe how his betrayal made me feel at the moment… he actually brought them to my house‽‽ all his weird questions made sense now, he was faking his concern for me just to find out my whereabouts."Hello Angela, surprised to see me??” Lorenz started, looking at me as I stepped out from behind the wall. I shook my hea
KARMA: FALLING FOR MY ENEMY'S SON 12. MONUMENT OF THE PAST
She's gonna forever say “I got this” even with tears in her eyes…An hour later, the car pulled up outside the psychiatric hospital. I looked out the window at the once beautiful building now run down with paint peeling off the walls. My eyes burned with tears as once again memories from my past threatened to come forth. Mom loved this place, she loved doing good by everyone… found peace in helping others but in the end that didn't matter because only selfish people get to live longer.Sniffling, I looked down at the screen of my phone and wiped the tears from under my eyes with the tips of my fingers before getting out of the car. I took a couple of deep breaths in to steady my heart that was already fighting to spring out of my ribcage and slowly made my way up the pavement toward the entrance. I got this, one step at a time and I finally made it. Walking through the sensor glass doors, a middle aged woman in a doctor's uniform, presumably the hospital's new manager approached me, a
KARMA: FALLING FOR MY ENEMY'S SON 13. FLOWER SHOP
She's the type of flower that can still grow after a forest fire…“Order for Eva” putting my phone down, I got up when the cashier called my name and walked up to the check out point “...One caffè macchiato and one Lungo” she said when I stopped in front of her. Placing a paper tray on the counter between us before putting the cups in it and informed me with a smile “...that will be four euros” I nodded and looked inside my wallet for some change before giving it to her.Mumbling a small thank you, I turned around to leave with the lattes in one hand and my bag in the other when all of a sudden my phone rang. Forcing me to take my eyes off where i was going and look down at my bag to get it. So I didn't notice someone coming straight at me.“Oof” I groaned, as we bumped into each other. The lattes in my hand spilled over us as they fell and over my phone now on the ground. “Fuck, I'm sorry” the person apologized, making me scowl at how familiar their voice sounded. I looked up and im
KARMA: FALLING FOR MY ENEMY'S SON 1. OUT OF COMA
This is a story of how I die but am still living... "You thought being pregnant would make you Mrs Magliolo??" He growled, gripping my chin tighter between his fingers. I frantically shook my head, let alone being his wife. The thought of marriage alone never crossed my mind. My everything trembled in fear of his anger ...I had never seen this side of him. Warm fresh tears streamed down my cheeks like waterfalls as I tried to pry his hand away from my face, but his grip only grew tighter …so tight I could feel cracks forming on my jawline like streams to an ocean. "You were wrong" he punched me in the face before finally letting go. The force of his punch forced me to fall back on the ground and scrape my elbows when I used them to break the fall. I couldn't feel my nose and the sudden metallic taste in my mouth only enlightened me on the reason why, he broke my nose. As if that wasn't enough pain already he moved closer to me and, gripping a fist full of my hair pulled my head up an
KARMA: FALLING FOR MY ENEMY'S SON 2. NEW IDENTITY
I will remember and recover, not forgive and forget… “ ...five months ago, you got in an accident. You jumped in front of my car out of nowhere and almost lost your life but I rushed you to the hospital just in time. The doctors fought for your life that night" he explained and let out a soft chuckle, unknowingly answering my unasked question and shoved his hand inside one of his coat's front pockets to pull out a card. At the mention of the accident, my hands unconsciously wrapped around my stomach to feel a bump ...my baby bump but they were met with nothing. My stomach was flatter than that of the girls you always see in sportswear going to the gym. "My baby??" I croaked, my lips trembling as everything that happened that one ominous night came crashing down on my still buzzing head all at once. I heard the doctor let out a sad sigh and felt a hand on my shoulder a second later. “We couldn't save your baby, I'm sorry" he said, gently squeezing it in an attempt to comfort me but i
KARMA: FALLING FOR MY ENEMY'S SON 3. A WALK DOWN MEMORY LANE
So much pain for someone so young… "...there's something you need to know..." I coughed at his words, almost choking on my food. I hated that sentence, I never heard anything good after those six words had been said. Dr Sanchez pulled out the card from earlier and let out a nervous sigh before giving it to me. Turning it around between my fingers, I frowned when it turned out to be a photo instead of a business card like I had expected ...a beautiful picture of a Spanish girl smiling happily at the camera with a chihuahua lounging on her lap. She was wearing a white dress with her thick silky black hair pulled to the side, cascading down her left shoulder in soft waves. The blue highlights complimented her eye makeup beautifully. " ...after the accident your face was ruined beyond repair so I asked a specialist to perform plastic surgery on you and give you a new face..." he said, finally giving me the answer I'd been dying to hear but not exactly what I had expected. I froze at his
KARMA: FALLING FOR MY ENEMY'S SON 4. ONE STEP AT A TIME
You took everything from me. Now, I'm going to destroy you… Gently stepping back from our hug, Dr Sanchez held me by my shoulders arms-length away in front of him and said "Well you've met our housekeeper Priscilla already, now it's time you go to bed …you need to rest” I shook my head disagreeing and said “I've rested enough” he sighed, having kinda expected my response and said “then I guess I should introduce you to your new life??” I nodded and he let out a soft chuckle taking my hand in his. He led me up the long staircase to the first floor, stopping in front of two black doors. He pushed them open revealing an office and stepped inside the dark room. Flicking the light switch on, he turned to me and said "Come" beckoning me to come inside and walked to a locker by the corner. Prying it open, he took out a box covered in dust and placed a few photo albums on top of it before carrying it to his desk and gave the albums to me, two of them belonging solely to his daughter. "No
