GaryGary Chadwick had never expected his own wife to try and kill him. In the morning of the trial, Gary received a call from Rhea Ildian asking him to go to the trial as one of the plaintiffs. The middle aged lawyer had always been wanting to expose his wife’s cruelty of her abuse, so he agreed. While the lawyer prepared to go to the courtyard, flashes of memories filled his view.In the beginning, Gary thought Rose’s abuse was a way for her to teach Elaine like how a parents would do to teach their children a lesson. However, his three own children never received punishment as harsh as Elaine’s. She was abused day in and day out while having to do the housework as well as studies. Gary ignored Elaine’s sufferings for the first couple of years all because his wife whipped up a lie saying that Elaine’s parents have done something terrible to her in the past.However, the sufferings continued, and mental abuse towards her began to g

NathanNathan Michaelis had been swallowing several times to ease the discomfort he felt in his chest. He felt like dying, but at the same time, he’s still alive and well. The recurring vibration of his phone shook him from his taxing activity.“Hello?” Nathan answered, ignoring the caller’s ID.“Nathan.”Instantly Nathan frowned. This voice at the end of the line sounded alright recognizable—a deep and smooth voice of Carson Dimitri, the person that he loathes yet he couldn’t seem to escape him. Carson’s voice would always bring a mysterious sense of peace whenever he heard them, yet this time, that one words leaving his mouth added more to the excruciating pain he’s experiencing. What is wrong with him?“What is it?” Nathan cleared his throat after that. The discomfort in his chest be really killing him slowly at this rate.Carson fell silent as if hesitant to tell. Su

ElaineThe poor girl named Elaine was once again inflicted with damage to her emotions. Unlike her surroundings which were pretty loud and chaotic; siren coming from the ambulance bellowing through the air from the distance and the paramedic doing their job, security and defense team securing the peremeter and the other spectators who were bustling into chattering among each other, Elaine felt her senses pretty numb for someone who just witnessed someone close to her being shot right in front of her eyes.Her daze lasted even until the ambulance went away. Only her guardian, Rhea Ildian’s voice managed to shook her out from daze.Elaine shot her gaze up to meet Madam Rhea’s.Despite adam Rhea asking her condition, the middle aged woman was trying haard to not show any sign’s of trauma or discomfort for this young girl who probably faced many more fears than her. Yet her feelings still spill out to reflect upon her eyes. Still, she picked

(Elaine’s POV)Currently, I am in a pretty inconvenient situation. I blame my gut feeling for coaxing me to follow it’s orders, as right now I am walking through a long way of inside some woods, of somewhere I didn’t know. I just suddenly got transferred here like magic.I gave up on wondering where I am the moment these ivies and vines began moving on it’s own and attacked me. It might be just the trick of my mind, originally, but that doesn’t matter anymore if the plant literally tried to pull you back into the bushes. Only God knows how terrified I am at that time, which actually happened just a few minutes ago.Right now I am trascending through the path of the woods. With the entrance of the woods already closing behind me, there was only one way and that was to go forward. I really wondered why am I sent here when I was visiting Asher.Suddenly memories of him flashed through my mind as I trudged the gloomy path. That&r

(Asher’s POV)The first emotion after I regained my consciousness and stayed dormant for a few seconds was shame. The clips of scenes when Elaine was saying the words I have said to her inside The Flesh previously haunted my mind in a repetitive cycle that I slowly mustered the strength to one of my arms just so I could cover my face in embarrassment.I was definitely shocked to hear those words. “We’re in this together.” Was the last words I said to her when we’re inside the poison region of The Flesh. If she remembers my words, doesn’t that mean she heard my confession?“No way…” I croaked, ignoring my scratchy voice from just waking up.Apparently my voice is loud enough for this deadly silent room, that Elaine was awoken even by the subtelity of my voice.She blinked her eyes as her head tilted up. Seeing as I was lying down with my eyes open, she immediately shot up and exclaimed my name.
