Aileen finally wakes up after a long sleep. Her body is in tremendous pain, it is as if somebody has
hammered her body with a stone the night before. But none of the physical pain can compare to the
pain her heart is feeling right now.
It is as if her heart is getting bitten by thousands of ants, it hurts so bad. The most important thing to do
right now is to rush to the hospital to see Aaron for the last time. Aaron is the man that she loves the
most. They finally confirm their love for each other, nobody ever knows that such a tragedy will unfold
not long after.
Aileen suddenly thinks of what Aaron said to her before. He mentioned that she would be filled with
regret. Is this what he meant by it? She will not have rejected him and let him go, only if she knows that
he will commit suicide after that.
She is a bonafide idiot!
Aileen cannot suppress her emotions to rush to Aaron at this instant. She wants to go to him the
moment she opens her eyes and regains consciousness, she doesn’t care about what is going to
happen after.
She suddenly realizes that she is stark naked and there are tons of forceful kiss marks on her body. It
must’ve been Richard’s doing, he was very violent last night. Her past attempts to seduce him never
work, but for some reason, he was in the mood last night. He was violent and forceful, worse than an
animal. He doesn’t care for her consent and she cannot fight back at all.
She feels disgusted just thinking about it. But now is not the time to be thinking about that, she isn’t in
the mood and she doesn’t need to.
What she needs to do right now is to quickly go to Aaron, and see him for the last time. How she
wishes that the news about Aaron committing suicide is just fake. She wishes that he will suddenly
appear in front of her again, alive and healthy.
Aileen has decided to not seek revenge after this incident. She only wants to be with Aaron from now
on. She hopes that she still has the chance to be with him, hopes that she still can turn the tide, hopes
that it is not too late for her to change her mind.
She bears the pain that her body is suffering, put on clothes and immediately proceeds to her
destination.
But Richard appears without warning and stops her at the door just as Aileen opens the door.
“Where are you going?”
His voice sends shivers down her spine, the way he questions her makes her feel uncomfortable. But
she doesn’t care less, she just wants to leave this place. The place that only brings her sadness and
gives her nightmares.
“Wherever I go is none of your business.” Aileen finally learns how to revolt, she knows that she cannot
be obedient anymore. Once she even went out of her way to plead her brother to let him go. It was a
huge mistake. But it is too late for regrets.
The only thing she has in mind right now is to rush to the hospital and to see Aaron again. She is
hopeful as long as she hasn’t seen his body. She hopes that it is just like the last incident, that he is
only playing a trick on her.
Yes, that’s right. That must be the case. Aileen tries to persuade herself desperately.
“Are you going to look for him? He is dead!” Richard yells harshly at Aileen.
“I don’t believe that he is dead. I’m going to see him right now. And I’m telling you, I will not be together
with you anymore.” Aileen musters the courage and talks back to Richard.
“You bastard, didn’t you always want to drive me away? Well, now I’m making your wish come true. I
will not be seeing you ever again.” Aileen is now filled with regret, how can she make such a mistake
back then? She only wants to leave right now, only by leaving Richard she can find happiness again.
“What are you saying?” Richard cannot believe his ears. Aileen actually said something like that. The
Aileen he knows is obedient and never talks back, but today she is overbearing and arrogant. He
cannot believe that she is rebelling.
“I’m making it clear, I’m done with you. I’m severing our relationship and you can have your freedom
back. I will be free again as well. From now on, we don’t have anything to do with each other.” Aileen
just wants to leave this place as quickly as possible.
She walks past him after dropping the bomb and takes large strides forward. But to her surprise, her
wrist is yanked brutally just after she takes a few steps.
A powerful slap then lands on her cheek and Aileen falls to the ground helplessly. Her face is throbbing
in pain and she cannot believe that he hits her so hard.
“What are you doing?” Aileen yells at him angrily. But it is as if Richard has lost it, he is crazy mad. He
is not going to let her go, as she challenges his bottom line.
“Do you know why I did what I did? I wanted to torment you since you wanted to stay by my side all this
time. Don’t think you can just leave me like this. You will never get to see him again, I’m not going to let
you see him, not even his corpse. From today onwards, you can only think about me, I won’t allow you
to think about another person.”
Aileen is astonished at what Richard is saying. She would be happy back then, but now the torment is
worse than hell. Richard just looks like a mad person right now, more the reason for her to leave him as
soon as possible.
Aileen just wants to leave him, only by leaving him she can feel relief again, and won’t have to suffer
anymore.
But Richard walks up to her again as soon as she stands up. He yanks her hair and pulls it backwards.
She feels pain in her scalp and it feels like he is going to break her head anytime.
He hits her head against the wall and her forehead starts to bleed. Aileen feels immense throbbing pain
in her head.
“Are you enjoying this? Remember this moment. Don’t ever think of looking for another man ever
again.”
The way he talks is so sonorous, it makes Aileen fear for her life.
“No…” Aileen’s head is bleeding non-stop.
