I Hear You Novels & Stories

“But once you hear it, there’s no going back.” I swallowed hard, my heart hammering against my ribs. “Just tell me,” I said, bracing myself.

NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! But then...something happened. I heard something I never thought I would hear again... A heartbeat.

“I’m leaving, Ma’am. Your boyfriend is jealous.” Jesabell’s eyes widened at what she heard. It was a whisper, but she heard it clearly. She caught Tyron’s furrowed eyebrows and darkened face right after she glanced at the phone.

“Get out! Get the hell out of my car!” Relieved, I push the door open without a second thought and flag down a passing cab. Ignoring Marcello as he storms out of his car, I slide into the back seat and give the driver the airport’s address. Marcello’s roars fade into the distance. “Get lost!” “And don’t you ever come back!” Even now, he can’t bring himself to say one soft word. And that just makes my decision feel even more right. I pull my phone from my pocket and turn it off.

Mason laughed. “I can’t believe a word he says anyway. I cannot trust that what he says is actually the truth. I would’ve never gotten any answers because anything he would say I couldn’t believe was the truth.” Mason looked sad as he stopped talking. “I just wished he would stop haunting me.”

“Or I’ll go against you in a way you’ll never see coming.” Whether she didn’t hear me or just didn’t give a fuck, her moans drowned everything else out.

He snapped. “No, I just think that even earlier too, you were mad with me because I was always following around, and now when I am not, you are calling me names. Next what I will be, currently I am an attention whore, then I might be something bigger, like what, the “S” word. Should I spell it for you?” I wheeze. “Don’t put words in my mouth. You know what I am trying to say.” “I am not putting words in your mouth. I am just repeating what you have just said to me.”

Zack collapsed on the floor like a broken man, his laughter hollow and crazed as he said to me, “The day I walk out of prison will be the day you die!” I pressed my lips together and shook my head. “You’re never getting out…”

It must be the baby inside my belly who intentionally made me hear her whisper! It was her whispers that told me my parents were dead, and it was her who slowly guided me toward the abyss. But was this really my baby’s whisper, or was someone intentionally making me hear them? I was agonizing over what it really was, but clearly, the others were not planning to give me any more time to uncover the truth. My parents walked out from the backstage area before they pointed at me and scolded me loudly.
