CHAPTER 12

AMETHYST'S POV

This has been happening to me for three days. There were foods coming to us every time it was time to eat. And every time mama asks me where they come from I just say I ordered them.

I don't know why Aivan wants me to tell him everything I do. It's so annoying. But that's all I did, I have no choice tho. I always just tell him everything I do when he asks. Yes, when he just asks. I don't automatically update him.

I'm just scared that he'll be true to what he said that he would come here in my place in case if I reprimanded him.

I'm just scared what he will do to me or to my family if ever.


And here I am lying down to sleep because tomorrow I will go back to work.

"Work again. Back to reality," I whispered before closing my eyes as I adjusted my position. I was next to my sister who is now already sleeping.


WHEN I woke up I had prepared myself for work. I ate and took a bath. When I got dressed, I first looked for mama so I could say goodbye and I saw her in the kitchen and she was washing the dishes we used earlier.

"Mom, I'm leaving," I said goodbye to mom as I peeked into the kitchen.

"All right, honey, be careful," mama smiled at me when she looked back at me.
I immediately left after that since I might get late.

Fortunately, the one between my thighs was now already fine. I can walk well and I don't look like a jellyfish anymore when I walk.

I just commuted until I get to where I work.

"Twiiiin!!!" Bella greeted me as soon as I entered the door of our office.

"Hey! How are you?" I greeted her back before we hugged each other.

"I'm just fine, how about you?" she replied as soon as we let go of the hug.

"I'm just fine, too," I said with a smile on my face.

"Hey, I'm sorry, huh? and I haven't been to you." I could hear a guilt in her voice.

I was shocked at first because the snout of this doof went long and that made me laughed a little.

"What are you talking about? That's just fine," I said with a smile.

"I know you're busy," I added.

"Don't worry, on our next rest day we'll going pamper!" she excitingly said.

"Owemji?! Are you still wearing pampers?! I'm already using a napkin," I said to her so she hitted me. Pampers is a diaper brand.

"You're such a fool," she said while shaking her head at me.

"Just kidding, all right, all right." I just smiled to her and we went to our stations to start working.


We kinda don't like our shift now since we are morning shift. Because what we really want is night shift. We want the night shift differential!

Bella is my best friend for a long time. To be exact, it's been a decade. Yes, we have been supporting each other for ten years. She was also a witness to Earl and I's love.

Like me and Earl, Bella also stopped studying and chose to work to help her mother educate her three other siblings. Her father is gone. He passed away when we were in grade eleven.


What happened next is just the same routine at work, we spent almost eight hours in front of the computer and entertaining the callers.


"Twin, I'm sorry we can't head home together," Bella told me as soon as she got close to me.

"Awh, don't worry, it's just fine." I smiled as I'm fixing my belongings.

"Can you tell me why?" I asked afterward.

"It's Junjun, she got into a fight at school." She even gasped for breath.

"Oh? Then I think I should go with you," I offered.

“Oh, no, no, no, no, I can handle this. It's fine. Just go home so you can rest right away." She smiled and refused.

"Let me help you," I insisted.

"I said, it's fine." She even made her eyes widen.

"Are you sure?"

"Oum, I'll also teach him a lesson." We just laughed at what she said.

"Don't be to harsh, huh?"

"I can't promise,"

"You're really crazy. All right, bye!" She came closer to me so we could do cheek to cheek.

"All right, bye! Be careful!" she said good bye and hurried out.


I, on the other hand, immediately finished arranging my belongings so that I could go out and go home.

While I was on the ride in the bus, my phone suddenly vibrated, sign that someone texted me. I looked at who was texted me and saw that Aivan’s name was registered on my phone monitor so I just ignored it.


Later on, it vibrated again so I just looked at it.

"8 pm at the Montecillo hotel."
"REPLY." I just blinked at his texts.

"K fine," I replied simply. '

'Dang, what does he want this time?' I asked in my mind.


When I got home I checked the time and it was only 4:47 pm. So I decided to go to sleep first. I'm not that active on social media so instead of surfing on the internet, I'll just going to sleep. Yet, sleep is the most important thing for me aside from eating.

Yes, I'm a sleepy person and I'm beautiful too, so I can already be called Sleeping Beauty if ever.


I changed my clothes first before I went to bed and I just slept right away..

---
I feel something taping my cheek.

"Big sis." Crystal shook me so I opened my eyes.

"Hmm?" I asked in a sleepy tone.

"It's already 7:30 pm, get up, you might have a hard time sleeping later," she told me so I sat down first and Crystal left the room first.

After a few moment, I laughed. "She acted like she's the one older in us," I whispered.

"ring, ringring," my phone said. That means someone texted.
I immediately looked at it.

"Don't be late." My eyebrows met when I read this text.

"Who's---" My eyes widened as I remembered Aivan.

Wait, what if I'm late? Who do he think he is?

"What if I'll be late?" I boldly reply.

"ring, ri---" I immediately looked at his reply.

"I'm gonna go to your house." I just rolled my eyes at his reply. I was still thinking of something to reply to him when he suddenly texted again.

"And kill your family." My eyes widened at his reply and later on I felt annoyed and angry.

I shivered with anger as I typed on my phone. "YOU'RE SHAMELESS!!!" I reply to him.

"You know that I can do that," he replied immediately.

I just gasped because I know he could do it. I just got into frustration with myself.

"Ok, Amy. Breathe," I said to myself while closing my eyes. I inhaled and exhaled three times until I felt like my chest wasn't that heavy anymore. And I sighed again.

"Amy, go ahead, let him ruin your life. Since he already ruined you, tho. The important thing is, you can protect your family." I smiled bitterly.

"Can I be late at least 20 minutes?" I ask him in the text.

It only took a few seconds for him to reply.
"Reason?"

"I just woke up, I fell asleep,"

"Ok. If 8:21 and you're not still there. I will go to your place." I blinked at his reply.

Wow, he is very time-bounded.

"K fine," I just replied and get up from the bed so I could get ready.

I took a shower and got dressed. I was wearing a fitted shirt and jeans and sandals on my feet. I don't want to make an effort in getting dressed so that I can turn him off. Who knows if he got turned off he will let me go?

Speaking of the deal. He said two months or equal to eight to nine weeks. So, seven to eight weeks more.

Hayst, It's too long. Is he serious? I really don't understand him. He can just get nothing from me.


"Where are you going, honey?" mama asked as soon as I came out of the room.

"Uhm, to Bella, ma. We're just to bond with each other. You know, catching up." I smile at mama so she won't worry.

"Oh, all right, just be careful, the two of you. Don't come home too late," mama reminded me.

"Yes, ma, all right." And I just left immediately.

I got out from the bus and checked the time.

"8:17," I whispered.

I still have three more minutes.

I walked and later on I saw Aivan's car parked nearby.

I did walk-run to get to his place immediately.

I immediately knocked on his car door when I got close to it. I heard it got unlocked so I just went in immediately. I was still a little out of breath when I got in here.

"So, you really plan to go by 8:20, huh?" he says immediately.

I looked at the time.

"8:19. At least I still have one more minute," I said proudly, causing him to look at me sharply and I made me flinched.

He turned his gaze back to the front and handed me a bottle of water. I took it and drank it. I just also looked to the front.

"Did you already eat?" he asked me afterwards.

"Nope," I replied sparingly.

"Good." I immediately turned to him because of what he said.

"We are going to eat. Because maybe if you already ate, what I prepared will be just useless," he said and I just nodded.

Seriously, I am clueless in everything. He's indeed a psychotic!

Later, he started the engine of his car and then started driving it.

Wait, he said he prepared something. What did he prepared? What, show? What kind of show? Killing? Brutality?


Because it was not in his looks that he would going to ask me out for a date. But he said he prepared something. Maybe he cooked or he asked someone to cooked for us.

Then after we ate, he will also eat me, you know what I mean.


I felt that my hairs on my whole body stood up because of my last thought and then I just slowly closed my eyes.

Manifesting that nothing would happen to me! Help me universe! Save me with this brutal guy!
