Realization dawned on Jennifer, “When you said I should do whatever I was good at, it was a test?”
“Bingo! Now you see it!”
“Damn you!”
“Yeah, damn me for seeing you were nothing but a ticking time bomb and you know what they do? They detonate when you least expect them to. That’s why I have to get rid of them,”
“Get rid of them?” Jennifer read in between the lines and her eyes widened, “Oh shit!” She cursed and the sound of her heavy panting was heard on the phone as she tried to make a move wherever she was.
Deborah guffawed villainously, “Don’t hate me Jennifer but I had no choice but to do this,”
“No, no, you can’t do this, Deborah! How dare you?!”
“At least I got you out of that mental asylum and gave you peace of mind. But you don’t have to worry, now you would experience the eternal calmness of the soul,” she added, “And don’t worry about your son, you’ve borne the cross for him so he’d be spared from this damnation. Goodbye, Jennifer,”
As soon as Deborah finished speaking, there was the sound of a blast, and Jennifer’s line went dead immediately.
“May your soul rest in perfect peace, my partner,” Deborah said, yet an unapologetic smirk crossed her lips.
She picked up her phone and logged into her note app where she penned down her plot and went down to Jennifer’s name only to write gone with the wind.
At the same time….
The sound of a blast in a residential area caused quite a scene as people gathered around to investigate while the rest called for help. However, none of them got to notice the limping lady that had fresh scars on her neck down to her left arm. She sneaked right through the crowd and climbed into the car of a man that had left his door carelessly open because he was busy getting the burning house on camera.
“Hey!” He shouted when he realized what was going on, however, Jennifer had already taken off.
Jennifer was in deep pain but her desire to survive pushed the excruciating pain to the back of her mind. She had to stay focused and get help before it was too late.
When Jennifer got an idea of Deborah’s plans, she at once without second thought flew out through the window. But the heat and force of the blast hit her more than she expected. The concussive force tossed her away like a bag of rice and away from the sight of whoever must be spying to see if the job was done.
There was a body to cover up her tracks. The housekeeper – that Deborah had no idea about – was the unfortunate victim in this blast. Jennifer bought the house with the hope that she and Neon would live there together hence it was always kept clean.
It would take time for the forensic department to identify the victim but that report of a burnt body would satisfy Deborah for now. However, nobody would see her coming. She just had to survive tonight.
Not long after, Jennifer parked the car at the side of the road and then made the rest of her journey on foot while making sure to avoid cameras that could capture her. Not long after, she pushed through the heavy door of an animal clinic.
“I’m sorry but we’re close for the night….” the young woman trailed off when she saw her state.
“Help me…” Jennifer lost consciousness.
The third point of view:
“Can I help you with that one?” Theodore offered help to his sister who was buried in projects.
“And make you miss your date? No way,” Eve refused him.
“You do know you would always come first in my heart,” He pouted.
“Yeah, I know you love me so much brother, but it’s time you got a girlfriend,” Eve added, “And I pray you said that the next time she’s here with me,” She smirked.
Eve knew her brother really liked Ailee, she’s been observing the way he never takes his eyes off her even during practice whenever she was cheerleading. He’s totally smitten.
Well, she likes Ailee too. Contrary to her expectation at first, considering she’s from an aristocratic family, she’s kind, beautiful, and a natural-born leader. The way she handles the cheerleading team with expertise and care increases her respect for her.
Theodore grinned in embarrassment causing his sister to roll her eyes, “Idiot,”
“But then …”
“Just go, I’ll be fine!” Eve stood up from her seat beginning to push him out of the class, “I’ll be fine, or have you forgotten that I can protect myself? Moreover, this school has more security than our place does,”
“Fine,” Theodore finally agreed, “Stay safe,” He pecked her on the forehead, “See you when I’m back,”
“You too,” Eve waved at him and watched him till he disappeared down the hallway.
“Finally!” She groaned, stretching out her body as if a huge weight had been lifted off her shoulder. Since it was just the both of them in the family, Theodore had made it his duty to look out for her since he was the eldest twin, saying it’s his big brother role or something.
With a deep breath, Eve Donovan went back to her seat and was so engrossed in her assignment that when a shadow crossed the corner of her eyes, she was startled.
“Shit, who the fuck was that?” She sensed whoever passed by was familiar.
Without a second thought, Eve got off of her seat and stepped out of the class only to see the outline of the figure cross the corner of the hallway.
Intrigued and curious about what whoever that could be was up to, Eve followed him at a distance. It was a male and his back was extremely familiar so she continued to stalk him. It wasn’t until he cut off at another corner of the hallway that Eve got to see his side view and she gasped, “Allen?”
What the fuck was he doing here? The school was over. Or maybe he had practice or maybe not? The way he was sneaking around told her that he was up to no good.?No, she had to find out what he was doing?
At once, Eve moved stealthily as she followed Allen’s trail only to meet an empty hallway. Allen was nowhere to be found.
“What the fuck?” Her brows furrowed at once. She had been sure she was right on his track, how did he varnish? Did he move faster?
At once, Eve quickened her footsteps and came to a T-road only for someone to push her into the wall.
“Why are you following me?” Allen growled at her.
However, the next thing Allen knew, Eve had already substituted their position and he now had his face pressed to the wall with his arm behind his back in an elbow lock.
“Before you touch a girl once more, make sure she’s doesn’t have a black belt in judo,”
“Hmm, impressive,” Allen muttered and with great speed and reflex freed himself out of the lock only to have her in the same position she put him.
