Procrastinated disaster.
William and Eddie face to face..
"Actually, I came for the walk in the garden.. " I said.. Stuttering.. Trying to divert William's attention from Eddie..
But he was looking at him only.
He just nodded at me.. But was still looking at Eddie.. Oh god.. What if he.. Hurts him.. No no.. I can not let that happen.. Eddie being hurt because of me..
" William, actually... " I wanted to take his attention from Eddie but before I can complete my sentence he cut me off.
" I didn't expected to see you here.. Anytime soon.. " William said.. Bemused by Eddie's presence.
What.. He knows him.. Obviously why he won't.. Eddie only told me that his dad works for William.. So it is obvious of him to know.. Eddie.
But why is he saying like Eddie is someone who often visits this place.. Eddie's father works for William not Eddie.. Am I missing something here.
" Yes, was passing by.. Thought to drop by and say hello to new Mrs Henry.. " Eddie said pointing at me with a smirk..
Damn it..
He'll make William suspicious of us..
" Ohh, that's good.. You two can carry on with whatever you were doing.. I'll take a leave.. And yeah.. Say my hello to Christian.. " William said.. And left..
Wait what.. William saw me here. All alone. And he didn't got any suspicious.. Well this is a surprise.. He doesn't even allows me to talk to Eric.. He thinks that may be Eric would try to make a move on me.. Or he'll may be I'll try to trap Eric and would escape from here. Eric is such a gentleman.. I know he has seen me with Eddie but he never told William a thing. He can see me plight and understands me well.
But William didn't doubted Eddie.. That's a huge surprise.
" What was that..? " I asked Eddie all perplexed after William left..
" What was what..? " Eddie countered.
" Don't try to pretend.. You and I both know well how William is. He can't stand a man around me.. But you.. He didn't even did the slightest to you. How.. And who is Christian..?" I asked him..
" Ohh. That. Actually my dad is his trusted man.. He has been working for him since last 25 years.. So he obviously knows me and due to my dad's selfless service towards him, I get this benefit of doubt. And my dad's name is Christian.. " He explained..
But I haven't seen William trusting people so Easily. But than I haven't seen enough of him in just a month. All the time I saw him was when he was being brutal to me.. I haven't seen him with others so may be he just has that attitude around me.. Not others.
" Okay.. " I said in response.
" What about my question.. When are you going to answer that.. Liz..? "
Holy hell his questions.. And his way of calling me liz.. Damn.
" Look, Eddie.. Nothing can happen between us. Nothing.. I'm married to someone for whom your father Works. And you and I both know this that. If William finds out about us.. Than it will not end on us. But.he will hurt yours as well as my family.
So it's better for both of us to be at a distance from each other. "
I said trying to explain him to stop his with his stupid demands .
" No.. Not happening Liz... No one and nothing can stop me from wanting you.. And I can see that you want me too, and don't you tell me that.. You are married woman.. Who loves her husband cause we both know that is not true. And I don't care what will happen after this,but for now all I want is you. . " Eddie exclaimed irritated. And confident.
What the hell... What does he think of himself.. Who the hell is he to order me around.
" Just listen to yourself Eddie.. Who are you..ha.. Within a week or two you fell for me , now you want me.. And on top you want me buy the crap. No way.. I don't believe you.. Look it was nice to meet you.. But everything comes with an expiry date..may be for our friendship this is the expiry.. Date. " Though I wanted to keep on screaming at him because of the way he treated me earlier but it us not going to help anyone of us.. Thinking that, I tried to explain him one more time... But he went too far..
" I will tell you who I am, Liz .... If you don't come to meet me tonight at the rest river side than I myself would go and tell your husband all about us.. And than we both will see the consequences.. " He said.. Warning me.. Almost threatening me.
What.. Just a while ago.. He said that he wants me... Now.. He is blackmailing me.
" No.. You will not... Do any such thing " I said.. Scared.
" I definitely will if you will not come to me tonight... Don't take it as an empty threat Liz... I can.. Do what I said. , your desire has made me go all crazy now nothing in this world could stop me.. " Threatening me he left..
I stood there in the garden all shocked.
Whole of the day I did not eat, did not do any thing.. Eddie's words were swimming in my head. What if he actually did what he said..
Than my whole family including me will be destroyed..
Hell.. What I got myself into..
I thought I found a friend.. But he is turning out to be someone more dangerous than.. William.
The clock struck.. Eight.. Time to go and meet Eddie cause if I didn't than may be it'll be the end before the end. If he actually did what he said than everything will end but after I'll meet him today, I'll clear one thing straight to him that no matter what I'll never be with him not after seeing how psychotic he is..
William was not home yet.. I used the opportunity to escape.. I told Eric to prepare the car.. He being the nicest person in here agreed without any hesitation.
Than I slowly started walking down the stairs to sneak out before anyone can see me.
Though Rita is understanding and knows my condition, she used sympathetic towards me but emma.. She somehow wants to drag me into trouble so I keep my distance from her.. She has tried many times, I don't know why but she does not like me.
Slowly I was about to leave but I heard weird noises coming from the basement..
I followed them out of curiosity.. When I reached there.I saw a huge door.. It was open.. I pushed it and entered. It was totally dark.. Not a single source of light
Suddenly the sounds stopped,
I took few more step inside the dark room
Asking " Anyone in there...??" I kept asking when suddenly the door closed on its own..
Damn it... I ran.. Towards the door.. Started pushing it pulling it.. Doing all the things to open it.. But to waste. It was still closed.. I started knocking and banging at the door hoping that someone from the outside will hear my voice.. But than I felt a hand on my shoulders....
And.....
