Laying on the big bed, I chewed the end of my pen as I stared blankly at the first question In the “Mathematics handout “i was holding ….

“If A=2x-y+3y ,B=x+2xy ,C= 3y+xy . Find the value of A+B+C ?

I swallowed hærd, Can this ever be solved?no I don’t think so!

moving over to the next question , what I saw got me all frustrated that I tossed the handout on the bed and picked up the next one , Literature in English.

I smiled , hærdin loves literature so much!

I went through it and noticed all of the questions were drafted out from two particular novels , Lord of flies by William Golding and the Grape of wrath by John Steinbeck

Shit!what will I do now! there is no way I can answer all of this without reading the novel, where will I even get the ………. wait a minute! hærdin has lot of books in his shelf and being a novel freak , he will surely have both novels……

And in a rush , I got off the bed and dashed out of my room to hærdin’ room and on entering his room, the memories of the s€× we had this morning flashed through my mind

I licked my l-ips smiling as I walked over to his book shelf

The books in the shelf were all squeezed together that I had to search carefully so I won’t cause a tear

I found none of the novels in the upper shelf so I moved over to the middle shelf and was about searching through it when a old looking book with deckled edges caught my attention….

I pulled it out and stared at it

It was the original manuscript of a book written in a handwritten similar to that of hærdin but this was not legible , it was as if it was written by a little kid ……..

 

Opening the first page , I perceived something strange, the name of the writer and the title of the story had been torn off …

why? Who could have done it?

I read the first page of the story and immediately loved it , it was the story of a little girl Mona who was bored with her home and decided to go on an adventure……

I smiled , this will be damn interesting! but why do I have the feeling that I have seen or watch this before? …. well! Does it real matter?

Sitting on the bed , I opened the pages one after the other as I read through it , I was so mesmerised in it and couldn’t just put it down…….

But who could have written this? Is it hærdin, if yes , why hasn’t he published it? or has he….

The sound of my phone ringing disrupted my thoughts …..

 

I brought it out of my jean pocket and on checking the caller , it was Mike

Oh dear! I completely forgot about him!!!!

I received it

hello Mike! I greeted first

hi Hazel! Are you still coming? he asked

Sure. I answered and he chuckled

Then when will that be? It is already 16:00pm……..

16:00pm! I repeated , glancing at the huge wall clock in the room and yes , he was right

Omoo! I never knew, I was so engrossed in studying that I failed to notice!!!

he chuckled softly, it is alright, so will you still make it today?

Of course I will , I will be on my way now

Alright dear! he said and ended the call…

Standing up from the bed , I Kept the manuscript on his reading table and then walked out of the room to my room

*

 

Entering my room, I quickly changed my clothes , plaited my hair into a loosed bun ,applied little makeup, picked up my bag along with my phone and then headed down the stairs ….

Luckily for me , I met no one in the sitting room so I happily scurried out of the house to the taxi station

*

 

The taxi stand was a bit crowded so I had to join the queue

And after waiting for about 30 minutes , it got to my turn

Finally! I muttered

I hopped into the taxi and on telling the driver my destination, he drove of …

hærdin Castillo

Immediately the school bell rang , I shrugged my backpack on and stood up drumming on Richærd desk as I waited for him

Stop it man, you are disturbing me with that . he queried

Ooops! Sorry

I quickly withdraw my idle hand and tuck it in my pocket

But do I really need to wait for you? I asked , staring down at his book

Yes hærdin! he simply answered as he proudly solved an equation incorrectly

I chuckled, I can see someone is getting ready for a fail.

What do you mean by that? he asked , looking at his book and then back at me

Nothing. I lied

Please Castillo don’t do this to me , save a friend. he pleaded and I sighed

Fine! I will explain it to you but not now

And why not now? he asked with an arched eyebrow

That is because Hazel will be worried sick waiting for me and I don’t want that to happen. I explained and he grinned like an idiot

Dang it! You have lost your heart to that girl!he retorted, standing up and we both walked out of the class to the car lot ……

 

*

Bye Castillo and don’t forget to Skype me this night . Richærd reminded as he got into his car which was beside mine

Sure I won’t! I promised

I got into my car , started the ignition and drove off heading for home

*

On getting to the mansion, I honk the car horn and the gate was opened up by the security man

I drove into the compound and parked in the garage; on alighting, I looked around for Hazel but didn’t see her

Why is she not here? Or is she playing hide and seek with me?

with my hands in my pocket, I walked straight to the sitting room and on my entering , I found that Rebecca of a girl setting up the dinning table ….:

Seeing me, she left what she was doing and rushed to me

You are welcome hærdin! she greeted with a large smile and I smirked

She never learns!

Ignoring her , I climbed up the stairs to Hazel room

She was the one on my mind ! She was the one I was itching to see!

I pushed the door opened and walked in to see the a messy room

Her clothes were on the floor , the lecture handout scattered on the bed ,her make up kit turned upside down

I shook my head in disbelief

Bringing out my phone from my pocket, I dialled her number but it rang without her picking up…….

What the hell Is going on?

I dialled it again for the second time but it was still the same and was about dialling it for the third time when a message popped in

It was a message from her , I quickly clicked on it

” I cant pick up, I am in the taxi”

I sighed in relief as I typed in a message

“Where are You? Where are you even coming from?… I sent it but it went to the message pending list!!

What the f-ck! Did she switch off her phone?

I quickly dialled her number to confirm and yes , it was switched off ….

She is f-cking gonna explain this !!!

*

 

Disoriented , I went over to my room and on entering, I tossed my back pack on the floor and was about going over to the bathroom when I sighted the manuscript laying on my desk ……

I picked it up and stared confusedly at it

How did it get here? who kept it here? Is it my mum? no , it is Hazel….

my mom knows my dos and don’t so she can possibly the one …..

why did she search through my book shelves? What was she looking for?

I exhaled deeply, flipping through the pages of the book , thank Goodness i was smart enough to tear out the pages with the title and the name of the writer …

But what if she read through it? my subconsciousness asked and I panicked a little

Why didn’t I think of it? Is this the reason why she switched off her phone? has she find out anything about my past?

Oh God! This is exactly what I have been scared of, when the girl I love will start asking questions about my past!!

Alighting from the taxi , I paid the driver and walked down the path to Mike house absentmindedly as I was lost thinking about what to say to hærdin when I get back to the mansion….

I knew he would be pissed off by now but I had no other option but to switch off my phone…..

*

Getting to the front of Mike’s home , I knocked on the wooden door

Come in . a voice answered and I smiled knowing it was Mike

I pushed the door opened and on walking in, I gasped in shock

Mike was seated on the sofa with only his briefs on and not only that, he was smoking and drinking heavily

My heart skipped a bit as my skin tingled in fear

Retreating my step , I turned around and tried to run but it was too late , Mike caught me by my arm and then made me face him ……

And where do you think you are running to? he asked , licking his l-ips as his eyes roamed all over my body….

 

I have been waiting all day for you!

No Mike , you are drunk please think clearly . I pleaded as he smirked

No Hazel! I ain’t drunk , I fu***”cking know what I am doing. he retorted and before I knew it , he pushed me roughly to the sofa …

Oouch! I gro**aned in pain as my but*****tocks landed on it

he chuckled, I really love the sound you made just now , i will love to hear more of it when I screw your tight puss*****y h0le …..

Pus****sy h0le! What does he mean by that?

I am gonna fu***””””””ck You till I loosen your h0le . he continued , belching and the foul smell of alcohol filled the air

Please Mike , you really can’t do this to me, remember we are friends. I reminded and he scoffed

Friends! hell no! I wanted you to just love me but what did you do? you chose to love a teenager who is three years younger than you , why? Just tell me why?Is it because he is cute or because he is rich ….

I shook my head negatively, it is not him being rich or cute , it is about him being in control of my heart . I tried to reason to him and that was it , he rushed to me and held me by the neck as he pinned me down to the sofa

I gasped for air

Pleeease Mike you arrrre choking meeee. I managed to say and he released his hold on me a little as he kis*sed me roughly …..

I tried wriggling my body out of his hold but couldn’t, he was so much stronger than me ……

hærdin! I called , breathing into his mouth and he pulled away from the k-ss, glaring down at me …

What did you say? he asked with a straight face as i broke down in tears

Please let me go! Please let me go ! I pleaded but he did not budge; instead he k-ssed my neck and began su****ckling on it ……

I closed my eyes as tears rolled down my eyes

How I wish I listened to hærdin! how I wish I told him where I was headed ! how I wish I never switched off my phone!

You are so sweet Hazel! I heard the bast**””ard say and my heart churned with anger

I really need to do something! I can’t allow this basta****rd take advantage of me!

Opening my eyes, I looked around the room and my gaze landed on the empty bottles laying on the table beside me

I stretched my hands trying to reach for it but that was when the idiot chose to rip off my shirt

No! No! I scre-med , covering my exposed b*ra with my hands but he flung my hands away , unclasping my b-ra as he took a ni***””pple into his mouth and suc***kled on it hungrily

Basta***rd! I scre-med and in a split it a second, I reached for the bottle and smashed it against his head

Arrrrgh! he grunted in pain as he fell to the floor bleeding

I jolted up from the sofa , picked up my torn shirt from the floor and then rushed out of the room like a crazy woman

And With my hands folded across my exposed bo000obs , I kept on running till I got to a busy road ; then I hurriedly put on the torn shirt and held it tightly with my hands …..

 

I had no money on me as my bag was still in the bastard house and my phone, yes my phone , it was in my pocket….

Bringing it out , I switched it on to see 20 voicemails messages all from hærdin …..

Oh Hazel! what have you done?

I dialled his number and he picked it up immediately

Haz! Where are you? Are you alright? Why did you switch off your phone? he asked in a rush and I broke down in tears

What Is it Haz! Why are you crying! Please talk to me …….

It is Mike , he triiieeeedd to hurt me. I stuttered and the line went quiet

hærdin! I called softly

Where are you ? he asked coldly

Ontario bus stand, do you know there?

Yes!he answered with the same cold voice and ended the call….

I stared at the phone for a while and then collapsed on the floor crying, ignoring the stares and murmurs of passers by

Will hærdin ever forgive me? I wondered as tears rolled down eyes

hærdin Castillo

*

*

 

This is bull shit ! I retorted angrily as I got off from the bed

Putting on a slide slippers, I picked up my car keys and dashed out of the room , scurried down the stairs and rushed out of house ignoring my mum curious stares

I signalled the security man to open the gate as I got Into my car ; and on starting it , I drove off to Ontario bus stop ….

Thankfully! It was a place I know since it was closer to my school ……

*

*

 

A lot of things were running through my mind as I drove in high speed to the place ….

Why did Hazel go to Mike place! Is it about the Manuscript! If no, why the hell did she go there ? I thought I warned her clearly to stay away from him

Damn! This is all f-cked up!

*

Getting to the bus station, I sighted Hazel at a corner sitting on the floor as she held to her shirt tightly

What the hell happened to her!

I pulled up in front of her and on alighting, I rushed to her

Haz! I called , squatting beside her and when she looked at me , I saw her bloodshot eyes

hærdin! She called as tears rolled down her eyes

What happened to you? I asked gritting my teeth as my eyes searched through her body

The love bites on her neck ! her torn clothes! her pointed nipp****les which clearly shows she was without b-ra!and even are scattered hair all point to one thing, Rap*e…..

Did he do it ? I asked with a surprisedly calm voice and she shook her head

I scoffed , I never knew you were dumb , did he do it ? I barked at her and she shivered in fear

No he didn’t! She answered as I huffed

Then tell me , what exactly did he do to you? I continued

Nothing. She answered, trying not to meet my gaze

Oh really! then why is your cloth torn? why ain’t you wearing a br*a? Don’t lie to me Hazel , did he k-ss you? did he suc***kle your boo000bs ? I asked hoping and praying she would say no but was disappointed

Yes! She answered as I l-ips quivered and I heard a loud bang in my head

Where does that bastard stays? I yelled

Over there. She said , pointing to a cornered path

Good! Get into the car. I instructed but she shook her head

This is not right hærdin , Let us just go home. She said , trying to touch me

Don’t! I warned and she withdrew her hands

hærdin please . She pleaded

Get into the f-ck***ing car . I yelled and she quickly stood up and did as I instructed …….

Following suit, I hopped in the driver seat and bang the door shut

The directions! I muttered and she pointed to a long cornered road

Starting the car , I drove through the path to Mike home …..

*

In what seems like eternity, she pointed to an apartment painted brown and I parked out in front of it ….

I looked out of the window and nodded

Austin hasn’t lost his taste for luxurious things!

Stay here! I instructed , opening the car door and was about alighting when she held my hands tightly

I looked at her hands and then at back at her ; she immediately got the message and let go of me

Good! What is it? I asked , staring at her messed up face

It is Mike , he is dead . She said and I became alarmed

Dead! Why! how! What killed him? I asked in a rush

Bottle, I smashed a bottle against his head. She answered and I heaved a deep sigh

Just bottle! don’t be a Drama Queen. I scolded her and alighted from the car ….

A bottle is not enough to kill the ” Almighty Austin or should I say Mike ”

*

 

Walking up to the front porch, I noticed the door was slightly Ajar so I pushed it opened and on walking in, I met ” the bast*ard” dubbing a big cotton wool on his wounded head

Seeing me , he laughed weakly

I knew you would come but I never expected it to be so fast…..

Bastard! Why did you do it ? I asked , gritting my teeth

That is because I have an eye for her first ! he retorted and I scoffed

Isn’t it obvious she doesn’t want anything to do with you? I fired at him but he laughed.

And who told you that ? you could have seen the way she was mo-ning my name when I s-ckled on that tiny nippl/les of hers. he fired at me and I faked a laugh trying to calm down the rage boiling in,side me ….

Hazel would never do that and do you know why? because her body belongs to me and me alone. I said trying to get him pissed and it worked

Bastttard! he cursed, trying to stand up but he fell back to the sofa , gro-ning in pain

I laughed mockingly at him and that was the height of it , he pulled out a gun from underneath the sofa and aimed it at me

Don’t piss me off Jay or else I will sho0ot . he threatened as I took a few step backward

his look was deadly and i knew for sure he could act on his threat

he laughed, Are you scared? No Jayden , you shouldn’t be, you readily gave up your freedom to protect your mom so I believe you can also give up your life for your girl …….

Bastarrrrd! I cursed at him as he laughed loudly

You should be thankful I am trying to have a peaceful life here in Tacoma or else I could have blow off your head…..

Sure! I know what a beast like you is capable of doing but let me give you a clear warning, if you dare hurt Hazel again I will make you regret it. I warned as he chuckled

And if you dare try anything stupid, your mother will be the one to pay for your crime. he fired back at me and a cold fear ran down my spine…
