Lahat ng Kabanata ng Beauty in Black: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 9

Amaya felt uneasy back at the library. Something wasn't right and she could feel it. She was so unrelaxed and everything wasn't feeling normal. She had come to the library to study for her fast approaching exams and everything was going on smoothly until now. Her left pinky finger had began shaking on it's own,a sign she had always had since she was a kid when things were about to or were already going wrong. She tried to focus back on her studying again,but couldn't. She suddenly felt restless. Standing up,she grabbed her bag and packed up her things,she was going home. She put on her face mask,dark sunglasses and a scarf before heading towards the library's exit. Getting out of the library,she flagged down a cab,since she hadn't come in her car. After telling the cab man her destination,she got in and they drove off. She stopped some distance from the house,since she knew they were in hiding and paid they cab man. She stood there till the cab driver was out of sight before tur

BACK TO PRESENT...... Amaya's whole body shook,as she cried bitterly. She had lost her family in the twinkle of an eye,and she was yet to believe it. "How could a human being be that heartless to kill people without remorse? How could a human being be that beastly as to kill little children without second thoughts? Innocent children who haven't done any wrong." Amaya wondered. "Please forgive me Ethan and Norah" she said inwardly and sniffed. "I promised to always protect you both, but I couldn't even lift a finger. I watched you both die and I couldn't save you". She cursed herself mentally. She was still lost in thought when a hand tapped her shoulder. She flinched in shock and almost reacted with a punch. She turned swiftly to see a girl who looked her age, standing behind her and wearing what looked like a maid's uniform. The girl was pretty,with big brown eyes,an oval face, small red lips and a slim figure. Amaya looked at her open-mouthed for almost a minute before t

Amaya watched silently as Esme catwalked gracefully out of the corridor. She folded her fists in anger, and bit hard on her bottom lip to stop herself from crying. How her life had turned into a heap of rubbish in the space of barely twenty four hours. She sniffed back her tears and braced herself for the worse. Sophia saw the pain mixed with anger in Amaya's eyes and gently pulled her into a hug. Amaya stood unmoving, her blue eyes distant. Sophia saw her unresponsiveness and slowly broke the hug. "Let's go inside" She beckoned the already crying Amaya. They walked into the room and Amaya dropped to the floor, crying her heart out. She wished she hadn't gone back home, she wished she had stayed back at the library. "He still would have found you. Didn't you notice that he seemed to know everything about you?" her inner voice said. "That was true", she thought, "he still would have located her". She sighed and buried her face in her palms. Sophia saw her emotionally down cast

Amaya stayed restless in her room, expecting to be called by the boss at any second. She feared what would become of her, but tried to hide her fear. Her palms were sweaty, same as her forehead and anyone could notice that she was slightly shaking. "You need to stop panicking Amaya. Look at you, you're drenched in your own sweat already" Sophia spoke out when she couldn't tolerate Amaya's restlessness anymore. She felt pity for Amaya, but panicking wouldn't solve the issue. "I know Sophia, but I can't help it. I've gone through hell in the hands of this man before, and I'm about to go through hell again. Do you think it's easy?" Amaya asked at the verge of tears. Sophia sighed, walking over before wrapping her hands around Amaya, drawing her closer. Amaya broke, sobbing quietly. Sophia had no words to comfort Amaya and just held her tighter in the embrace. Amaya slowly disengaged from the hug and walked into the bathroom to wash her face. She stared at her reflection in the mi
