Mom?

The image of a woman that seemingly did not leave my head had pinned me to the state of a statue. A woman who looked just like her from behind stood firmly a few steps away from me. I was in a very very dark place.

"Mom?" I called out.

She turned around. Her hands were tied with a handcuff and her tears were blood. She was quivering.

"Look what you did," she mumbled and motioned her head at a weird angle.

Dad and my little sister were laying lifeless. They looked so pale. I rushed over to them and observed that they both got shots in their hearts. Bullet wounds.

I snapped back my head at my mom as I heard a gunshot go again. The image of her collapsed and I saw Damien was holding the gun.

I screamed at the top of my lungs as my whole world was collapsing. My family. I was supposed to protect them. It was because of me.

It was because of me...

The headache now I was feeling was just like being hit by a brick. Damn. Why was I always had to wake up with a terrible pain somewhere on my body every damn time? 'Was it my fault? He wouldn't hurt me if I obeyed him.'

I shot up awake and took a look around me. What? It looked like I was in a motorhome.

I shuffled around a bit and checked the place. Everything here was clean and neat. I mentally noted that I have to go back to Damien before he went crazy and most likely trying to keep his oath to 'make-me-regret'. I hoped to never get on that side of him.

My bare feet touched the dry grass as I stepped down through the open window. As almost I tried to step my fourth step, a voice rumbled out of nowhere " I thought you trusted me,"

I snapped back at him and narrowed my eyes at his figure sitting few feets away from me. How did I not notice him??? It was the guy who saved me, Mateo Devin. But his stare made me feel uneasy...a lot.

"Going somewhere?" he said with folded hands.

"What about my parents? Are you saying that I should hide somewhere else after putting them into the mouth of the beast?!" I snapped angrily.

"I did try to save your parents. But Damien is no fool either. He had secretly set up plans to keep your parents in his grasp." he said calmly as if it was a sort of business.

"I'm not sitting here and letting that bastard torture, my parents, for my sake," I seethed.

"So what? Are you planning on hitting him and begging him to let your parents go?" He mocked.

"I. Didn't. Ask. Any. Of. You. To. Save. Me. Or. Anything. Like. That!" I snapped back angrily.
"Do you think I stayed stuck with him for over a year for no fucking reason?! He will fucking kill them!!!" I cried as I couldn't control it anymore.
