Lahat ng Kabanata ng Shadow : Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 10

Amari POV: I must have dozed off because I felt a pair of hands wearing cold metallic rings touch my shoulder tenderly. Looking up I find myself staring at his silhouette "Hey sweetheart" I can't see his face but I know his smiling "Ahhh you touched me," I say almost screaming but I close my mouth shut. He places his finger against his face as he peels back to stand straight "Sorry, I'm just so excited you've never done that," I say softly. Shadow is a boy I met a couple of months ago every since then he's been coming over and reading me stories. He doesn't know it yet but in the future, he's going to be my boyfriend "And I'll never do it again but I know how much you wanted to talk so I woke you," he says his voice suddenly deep. He must also be growing up too "Your voice is getting deeper," I say smiling and he grunts "Yeah, I guess," he says nodding his head. Today for some reason he smells like the way my mother's car smells when something is broken and there's just smoke

Amari POV: Last night I couldn't sleep. A man kept screaming in the early morning to be let out. I cried during the whole night. I'm stuck here and my parents haven't tried to come rescue me. I don't even know where I am. I just want to go home. I'm still chained to the bedpost like a sad dog. I have no more tears left to cry over after this Sounds of locks being unlocked are heard before the door swings open "You a menace little lady," a male voice says. He comes to sit next to my bed in a wheelie chair. I don't say anything I just turn and I stare at him. "Well darling all you have to do is behave and take your medication and in no time you'll be out of this place free to go," he says tapping a syringe filled with a strange liquid. He brings it close to me and I try to get out of the chains away from him but it's useless "Calm down darling, it will all be over soon," he says rolling up my sleeve and injecting me with the syringe. I don't scream and I don't cry I mean what can I

Amari POV:I can't believe it's been 5 years living in rehab. I'm 14 now. Whilst other girls get their coming of age parties .I stare at a Tv screen 24/7 , drinking 10 pills a day, getting injections and honestly I'm getting tired of this life. A few years ago I got interrogated by a police officer about Shadow . I didn't believe it at first I mean I could of hallucinated it all .It's hard growing up with my condition. Sometimes I cry myself to sleep and other days I pull out my hair and because of that they decided to shave my head.Could Shadow be real ...ah no the doctor said I need to stop thinking about him and I'm going to do exactly that.Flipping through the channels I hear a knock at the door. Yes they gave me a door and now I get to leave my room whenever . I'm getting better well better at not hallucinating "Come in" I say looking at the door. A girl with blonde hair comes into view and I smile "Hey bitch" she says throwing her tote bag on the floor"Ahhhhh your back ,

Amari POV:"Jason" I yell into the phone"You sound mad , what's wrong" he quizzes"I don't know what sick joke your playing but what the fuck Jason" I scream"Amari I don't know what your talking about" he says truly confused "The fucking teddy bear Jason , you know exactly. I just got out of rehab and you pull stunts like this" I drop to the floor and I sob"Amari I didn't get you a Teddy bear" he says and my eyes widen. My heart starts beating really fast in panic "Then who the fuck did Jason...please...please just say it was you" I sob even louder"Amari I think you should calm down" Bella tries to touch my shoulder and I shrug her off"Don't fucking touch me " I stand up and I back away from her. Happy 16 birthday sweetheart Love S The note haunts me.There is only one person I know with the intials S and it can't be him because his not real. His not "Jason....please - please just say it was you " I plead into the phone"Amari , I honestly don't know what your talking abou

Amari POV: It's been a year and I haven't heard from my dad well it's not like I wanted him to call or anything. After we got kicked out of my childhood home we went to live with my Aunt and Uncle well until the incident. Flashback "Hey Amari" Uncle Will says coming into the guest bedroom I'm sleeping in "Hi," I awkwardly smile. It's not like him to come in here "Where's Bella " he quizzes looking around and closing the bedroom door "She uhm went to go visit her nonna," I say raising my eyebrow. I'm feeling uneasy right now but I'm telling myself it's fine. He starts coming towards me and I slowly start backing away pressing my back against the headboard "So how old are you now" he quizzes sitting on the edge of the bed right by my feet "I'm 16 " I hesitantly say bringing my knees closer to me "Oh wow your growing, you know in other countries kids your age are allowed to give consent" he chuckles as if he's trying to convince himself. Shivers go down my spine and I clutch hard
