Chapter 29- Truth

I raised my gaze and a gasped escaped my lips. I was in shock, my legs wobbled with each second that passed by. My throat felt dry and it was getting harder to breathe. I stared, trying to convince myself that this wasn’t real. I was hoping that I would wake up any second now. I whimpered because I knew this wasn’t a dream. My legs were starting to shake incredibly strong; threatening to give out any moment and collapse, but I made sure not to let that happen. 

I was standing in front of my REAL attacker.

A tear escaped my eye, but I quickly wiped it away; I wasn’t going to let him see me like this. All the memories came back to me in that instant, all the times I had spent with him. How did it all lead to this? Did our friendship really mean anything? So many questions were running through my mind; I finally picked one.

“Why?” I asked.

Why would he ever do this to me? Why would he kill everyone important to me? How could he possibly live with himself?

“Why not?” He snickered.

I glance down at Max; the crimson liquid that has made a puddle around him. A wave of emotions runs over me, knocking me down to my knees. I could feel my pants and hands getting drenched in the blood but I don’t care; the guilt I hold inside of me is greater than anything right now. The hatred, anger, grudge I held against Max, kills me with guilty. My real attacker laughs as the guilt washes over me making me realize that I had hated the wrong person.

“Why?” I repeated over and over again.

“I love you, Rose” He says seriously.

I look up at him as he steps closer to me; our eyes meet and lock with each other.  All of a sudden I get this strength to stand up and look him in the eye.

“I hate you, Tyler.” As I say his name, a lump forms in my throat. Saying his name out loud; makes it real. It’s admitting that I had hated the wrong person, when I should have listened to him. It’s admitting the loss of a brother. It’s admitting that I had been so close to a murderer. It’s admitting, defeat.

I see a frown form on his forehead, “Don’t say that.” He says with his voice ringing throughout the room.

“Take that back.” He says as he takes a step closer to me. My bravery is quickly taken away and is replaced by cowardice. Making me involuntarily take a step backwards; my legs tremble with every second that passes by. Silence surrounds us, the chirping of a cricket and the wind blowing against the window is the only thing that can be heard.
