Sophie

My body trembled violently on the cold floor as the poison burned through my veins. I can't believe I have been poisoned. And by the man I had always loved and the best friend I treated like a sister.

My eyes were barely able to focus as I stared at them with hatred which burned through me as severe as the poison was.

They were both smiling.

"Wh-Why?" My voice was barely a whisper. But it was clear enough for both of them to hear me.

Piper moved closer, her lips curled with disdain as she looked at my body shivering on the floor while she stood over me. Her red heels stopped inches beside my head.

"Tsk...tsk..you poor thing. Did you think Lucas would love someone like you? You are just a nobody if it weren't for your family" Then she glanced at Lucas, who also moved closer now.

I watched in disbelief as his hands wrapped around her waist and he kissed her forehead lovingly. Then he glanced at me.

The usual softness I always thought I saw whenever I looked at him was gone. In place was a look of pure disgust. My heart dropped.

This was the man I gave everything to. The man I thought loved me as much as I did.

"Piper had always been the woman I loved not you" He sneered

"If she hadn't asked me to get closer to you in order to get your inheritance and help to destroy Cassio, I would have never considered you"

Destroy Cassio?

Yes, that's right. I helped these two villains help destroy my husband. Calling them Villains when I had been helping them all along? What does that make me?

I only hope the damage I did could be reverted. Cassio had always been a smart man, so I'm sure he'll find a way to overcome it.

I tried speaking but was only able to let out a cough. A cough that was accompanied with blood.

Guess I was dying now, that's good then. Death is a good way to repent.

I sucked in oxygen greedily as much as I could before opening my eyes and regarding the two in front of me.

"H-How unfortunate.." Cough "Th-at you...you were unable to" Cough "..to get my inheritance then" I couldn't help smiling a bit at that. I loved Lucas and would do anything for him. I would have given him the whole of my shares in my parents company and everything I inherited from my grandfather if it weren't for the fact that, my Husband, Cassio had stopped me from doing so.

I hated him for it because he seemed controlling at that time. I was an idiot. He had warned me many times not to trust Lucas but I had argued that he was jealous because I loved someone else that was not him. Now look where that got me.

A poisoned shivering mess in the cold floor of my rented apartment. The place I always met with Lucas and Piper in secret so we could plan how to destroy Cassio.

I felt a kick on my side but the pain doesn't even register because the one I'm feeling in my heart was much worse.

"Fucking stubborn bitch, you can go join your husband in hell now" Piper spat and my barely opened eyes widened.

A ringing sound took over my ears, creating a sort of headache that I had to hold my head in pain.

What did she just say? Cassio was dead? How was that possible?!

My eyes lifted to the two in front of me, waiting for them to tell me it was some kind of joke and that Cassio was actually dead. That I hadn't somehow caused it.

Piper bent before roughly grabbing my face to make me meet her eyes.

She grinned as if she knew what I was thinking about.

"Yes, he died because of you" Probably seeing the horror in my expression, she smiled triumphantly and continued.

"He loved you so much, did you know that?" My heart dropped.

" Of course you don't because you are stupid and could never think for yourself. Which was why you don't deserve anything you have and serves you right for losing everything. You never appreciated all that you had, so why should you have them?" She then snatched her hand away from my face, making my head hit the ground. She moved back. Then Produced a clean handkerchief to wipe her hand like my face was disgusting.

Maybe it was because my tears were uncontrollable now and mixed with the blood coming out of my mouth.

"Because I'm such a great friend" she continued "I helped to take away things you didn't appreciate. I had Lucas message him that you were in danger. And because the idiot loves you, he immediately got in the car and got in an accident on his way. The accident we planned by the way, is that right, love?" She turns to Lucas who smiled lovingly at her.

I couldn't believe my ears. Cassio died while trying to save me? What the hell have I done to deserve such a treatment? I had always hated him!

My breath came in short gasps now and I could feel myself slowly losing consciousness.

"Rest in peace now, dear friend. I'll take care of everything else for you" I could hear Piper's gleeful words but it seemed so far away. Like something from a far memory.

My last thoughts were that it was good I was dying. I could make things up to Cassio in the otherworld. That is if he wanted me to. And if he doesn't, it wouldn't stop me anyway.

***

My head hurts.

The feeling was really terrible and vaguely familiar. It was like waking up hung over.

Hung over?

My eyes snapped open and the burst of white light immediately made me shut it.

Damn! Who opened the curtains!

Curtains?

What the hell!

My eyes immediately opened, even with the blinding light from the opened curtains, I managed to open them and see clearly where I was.

The first sight that greeted me was the sun shining directly into the room. Which was weird because I remembered dying after being poisoned by Piper and Lucas. My eyes moved from the windows to look around the room which I'm now realising was my room. The one I had at Cassio's house.

Cassio, my poor husband who died because of me.

The tears returned now as I realised I was still alive while he was dead.

Did someone find me and took me to the hospital? Is that how I'm alive?

Looking around the room though, it was strange. It didn't look like this the last time I left it.

Taking the white duvet away from my body, I noticed I was wearing pink night wear. Another absurd observation since my last pink night wear that looked exactly like this was tossed away about two years ago. I started wearing black and white after.

Maybe someone got another one for me? That would explain it.

I climbed down the bed and the moment I saw my pink slippers, I froze.

I remember clearly throwing it at Cassio after he told me Lucas was only using me and that was two years ago. I remember telling the maids to burn it because I didn't want anything that had touched Cassio, and they did. So how come the slippers are still here?

I put it on and the feeling was the same. Maybe if I go out, I'll get an answer to all my questions.

But as I moved away from my bed, something got my attention and I turned to the mirror.

Staring back at me was a long haired version of myself, the one I had abandoned two years ago.

There was no sign of me ever being almost dead except I looked like shit, which brings me to the first feeling I had. I was hung over.

But how?

Did I lose a part of my memory?

Curious, I went to search for my phone to check the date. But It wasn't the new phone I saw, it was the one from three years ago.

I tapped it, it turned on and the date staring back at me gave me a whiplash.

February eight Twenty twenty-four.

Holy Mother Mary, Jesus and Joseph....did I just wake up in the past??!!!!!
