Escape from breaking

Chapter 8

I felt hurt. I opened up to the only person I thought cared but he got disgusted and left.

How did I even conclude that he cared? I knew nothing about him. I trusted my instincts and destroyed my walls. I felt there was something about him that drew me closer to him. I felt safe around him, which is strange.

Nothing was going to change what life brought me. My life was going to remain miserable. Maybe I was not meant to live.

Tears clouded my vision as I regretted what I had just done. My heart felt empty.

I wanted to be with my mother and I knew how that was going to happen. Nobody will stop me.

My body felt weak as I stumbled on my way to the bathroom. I looked for something that could help ease the pain in my heart: anything, maybe pills.

My eyes fell on a blade inside the bathroom drawer. A sigh of relief escaped my lips as I held the blade.

It shined brightly at the dimly lit bathroom. I observed it before placing it on my wrist. The cold metal pressed against my wrist as I sliced it open.

Blood oozed out of the cut as I clenched my teeth to stop screaming. Red covered the white tiled floor.

Black dots clouded my vision as I sat down with difficulty. I wanted all the pain to go away. Both physical and emotional pain. All the nightmares and torture of this life.

I am going to finally rest. My eyes turned blurry as dizziness washed over me. Everything ended in black.

Andy's pov

I walked out on her before she could see the most dangerous, ruthless side of me. I wanted to kill that excuse of a human called Dave.

How could someone hurt such a fragile girl? I know I am a monster too but I don't hit women and children

How can someone abandon his family?

Rage build up inside me. I wanted to release anger in my system before I murdered someone.

I walked downstairs to the gym room and found a couple of my workers training there.

I went straight to the location of the punching bag. I vent out my anger as I punched it repeatedly.

Every punch more powerful than the previous one. My knuckles started bleeding as sweat dripped down my face and back. I continued until the punching bag flew off the chain.

Blood dripped from the splits in my knuckles but I did not care.

Everyone minded his own business knowing not to get near me right now.

Thank my childhood friend for ignoring my state and coming up to me. He is lucky I can't hurt him.

"f**k man, are you on your manly man periods?"

I felt irritated at his voice as I glared hard at him.

He raised his hands in surrender and left my sight.

I went back to my room and changed into something decent. I then headed to April's room only to find an empty bed.

She can't escape because the security around here is very tight. So I think she is just wandering around.

The bathroom door got my attention. It was wide open but no sound came from inside. There was no sign of someone.

I got curious and headed to the bathroom. There on the floor lied a body covered in blood. I froze at the sight as panic arose in my body.

This could not be happening. No no no ....

I felt a heartbeat on her wrist but very faint. My heart dropped. Please don't do this to me April.

"I know you are the right one. You are my queen."

Please don't leave me. My throat clogged up as tears formed in my eyes.

My knees gave out as they felt weak and could not hold my weight. I kneeled next to her body as I wrapped up her wrist to slow down the bleeding. She had lost too much blood.

I lifted her body and rushed her to the clinic. Everything had already been set for her as the treatment commenced as soon as I placed her on the bed.
