"Cousins" I mumbled
Never in my life would I imagine falling for someone against the norm. Incest taboos! How would I restrain myself from falling to the trap when I am at the brink of the hell, unknowing if this guy would take responsibility for what am I feeling.
On second thought, this is not my real body. But the thing is, the perception among the other people towards us is crucial.
They might detest us of our situation.
But the hell would I think of the others?!
And why am I bothered?! Like I would let myself drown to this guy.
"Have you taken your medicine already, Gab?" so-called mom asked.
"A-ah--" I hesistated.
"Let me take care of her, aunty," Mark intervened.
The woman sighed in relief. "I will leave Gabbie to you, okay? Monitor her from time to time, Mark." she pleaded as she tapped the broad shoulder of this guy. "And you," she pointed at me. "Don't be a stubborn kid to your cousin." and snorted a laugh.
I just gave her an awkward nod as a response.
I composed myself towards my room finding the antibiotic that so-called mom asked me to take. There's no to worry about, there's a glass of water prepared in this room.
I was about to take a sip of the tablet when someone disrespectfully expunges the motion of my hand into my mouth.
I glared at that guy arrogantly waylay me. "What?!"
"Are you insane? You cannot take other medications without a prescription."
I rolled my eyes in frustration. "What do you think am I doing? Isn't my medicine?
"It's a scopolamine."
I unconsciously released the tablet that falls onto the cold floor. He devilishly grinned as he smirked, exposing his dimple. Cute. That's when I observed his perfect jaw line. The Adonis-like broad body plastered. Clean-cut hair with a brood dark chocolate eyes that derives my soul every time he intends to look at me.
"And where's my medicine?" Diverting the embarrassment.
He took something in the drawer and motioned his hand on mine with a tablet.
It was a sudden moment when our skin touches that my heart flutters treacherously.
I gazed in his eyes with doubt trying not to smile in gushes. That glare turns to intensive stare as if deriving his soul. "Silly, if you are going to eat me now instead of the medicine, go."
The rise up to my cheeks, I cupped it to cover my shaming face to him. "D-Do you think you have that g-gorgeous face to be adored?"
He chuckled. That sexiest chuckled I've ever heard. He comes closer to my ears as he whispers, letting me feel his warm breath and a newly-shaved shower that tingles my stomach. "Why the sudden stutter, hmm?"
"C-Can you keep the distance b-between us? You're invading my privacy" I said trying not to make my sound in delight.
"Am I a threat to you?"
Then he led the distance between us. He caught me off guard of his actions, no words appeared in my mouth. That's when I realized that I held my breath for a second then I sudden burst of heaved breath. I just withdrew a daring glare.
Afterward, he exited to the door, leaving me in peace. Thank, God. Every time seeing him was very significant, every stare was breathtaking, every chuckle was music to my ears that I will never sick of listening even a thousand times and that feeling must I stop as soon as possible.
No-no why am I thinking about it. Are you crazy nut, Jee?!
This shouldn't get deeper. I must not dig a hole for my grave. I must restrain this feeling that wavers every single day.
But I think that is not a problem today. My core problem is the mission I am taking on this world. That grandma could only answer that big question playing in my mind. What should be my first step for me to be able to free myself in this fantasy and how to escape in this deserted room without being noticed.
Nevermind, the usual. Once again, I slightly open the door and tip-toed my feet, doing best as I can not let him hear my footsteps. The place was very quiet which only my fast heartbeat could hear in the four corners of this room.
So far, so good.
I was in the living room and about to open the door.
Succeed!
I quickly ran to the way of the street. Thrill filled me in as I escaped to that house. Walking into the door-to-door houses, seeking for help in the direction of the police station where that grandma has been chased.
"Hey" somebody called.
I diverted my head to someone called me. As I looked into his bluish orbs of eyes, he gave me a dazzling smile. "You are lost, I guess?"
I shouldn't trust anyone in this world but in the second thought, I must swallow my pride for me to be able to surpass my mission.
This face of this guy wouldn't seem to harm other people, I guess?
"A-ah, yeah? Can you tell me where is the nearest police station right here?" I asked trying not to roll my eyes and to sound sarcastic.
"Oh, there's a near police station right here," and he precedes his hand to show the direction in proud.
In spite of doubting minds, I insisted to follow him. I hesitantly composed myself as I started to follow his preceding.
As I gazed at my sight everywhere, it's becoming further into the crowd as we walk in the narrow place of dreary eerie silence, covered with dried leaves just like in the Earth. You would feel that you're not in a very wrong place.
Not in a fantasy you will never wish.
"A-Are you sure this is the right way?" I spoke in nervous.
He shifted his head in my direction. "Yes, I am, my dear."
Before he returns his head towards the direction, I saw he smiled mischievously as if planning something wicked. Then I came back to my senses and started to compose myself to run but before I planned it, I saw two more guys at my back seeing those devilish grins on their faces same goes beside me, another guy appeared from nowhere.
Anger, frustrations, fear and nervous mixed my emotion. I heaved a deep sigh as I pleaded them kindly.
"s**t!" I whispered in the midst of holding anger and nervousness.
Then they harassed my thigh up and down. I yelped in panic. Then the proximity of them becomes near.
"Please, Please don't" I begged. My tears began to flow incessantly.
No, not this one. Not this way I'm gonna lose the battle.
"Please, father. Don't do this to me. Oh, please please please."
I pleaded to chant "please" a thousand times but he doesn't hear my sentiments.
Why my life has to be like this?
He is becoming near at my distance as I heard the chain of belt unbuckled while I'm on the corner pathetically begging to stop what would is he doing. He started to wear off his pants, leaving his boxers with a bulge in the center shouting with wildness.
He harshly held my chin up to dote his manhood on my mouth. At that moment, I already felt disgusts to me. My life became dark as he leaves me in the room, satisfied.
Many times I tried to kill myself but there's a person always in my mind that I must protect. That I must give comfort. My loving, Prince. Until now, I'm torn between killing myself or to cope with it just for my younger brother.
I heard a loud gunshot not so far behind our area. That's when I realized that the men harassing me lately started to run in panic, leaving me behind.
I looked at the heroic guy who salvaged me in hell.
"Miss, are you okay?"
I just gave him a stare.
Words disappeared from my mouth as if shocked in my what just happened and the memories that flashed on my mind.
The next thing I knew is I found myself in the police's nest. Ridiculed by what just happened. Do I have to experience that harassment before fate brings me here?
"Here," I held high my gaze as he offered a cup of water.
I took it.
I handed the glass of water and started to drink, at least gave me relief that removed the lump in my throat. I already gave them my statement with regards to the case and I requested to visit some grandma that's been jailed here.
From the very first place, I don't know why they captured that pity grandma, that woman (the mother of this body) mistook her as kidnapping me.
Anyways, that's not the important right now. Afterward, I saw her walking towards my direction analyzing who will be her visitor. When she saw me, she comes closer to where am I sitting with and handcuff.
"I bet I know the reasons for your intention here" she assumed.
"It's about what you said yesterday, my mission in this world," I replied hoping no one could hear me.
"I need to know what will it be for me to be able to go back to Earth, and how will I even get here in the first place?"
Silence filled the four cornesr of the room.
She heaved a deep sigh and began to speak.
"Are sure this is the right time to know the truth?"
If not now, when so I must know as soon as possible. "Y-Yes"
"Can you take it?"
I just gave her a daring glare.
She gave me an evil grin. "Your body and Gabbie's body has been exchanged for a purpose since I already informed you that we are living a year advance in your world, what might happen to you in this generation might affect the life of your real body, Jee's body,"
"You will find it yourself sooner what's been the real purpose why. Nobody knows what might be happening right now in your world. The way you survived this mission is the success of your life out there. You will decide your own fate." she stated.
I just gave her a stare while trying to absorb everything. "May I know why did you know all of this?"
"Far beyond the truth, Jee. It's far beyond your belief. I'm living more than 900 years, and I'm not the typical human you been encountered."
"But the most conflict of your mission is that Gabbie is suffering to a condition and you have to know what that is and you must keep yourself alive within the due to the next explosion of the hyperspace which serves as a portal for you to be able to go back to where you really came from. If you have been succeeded it, you'll sleep when moonlight comes and the soul will initiate to reverse back."
"If you failed, it will cost you a life, Jee, it will cost you big time."
