CHICAGO LOVERS

MURDERER💣

The night seemed long all of a sudden and I kept starring at the picture for what seemed like forever, why did I look like her exact copyright? I had her eyes, her lips, her nose and her face as well. My mom left me when I was very young and I have never seen any of her photos because dad burnt all of them and whenever I would ask him for her photos he would always ignore me or insult me, but the only words that I remember him saying is that I look exactly like her.

"What's going on in your head my little princess?", he snapped his fingers getting me out of my thoughts.

"So what are you going to do, kill me?", I asked trying to sound courageous.

No my dear, the only difference you have from the other girls is that you are strong and courageous even at the brink of death, actually I like you a lot, so no I wont do anything to hurt you", he said sending relief right through my brain, or was he just playing with me? Because that's what people do when they want to put you up for s*******r, they just mess with your head and kill you softly.

Either way I wasn't taking any chances whatsoever. I gave him back the picture and sat up straight in a flight mode waiting for his next move, because if he was planning on attacking me I'm not going down without a fight. All I could see in my head was a clear view of how our fight was going to be and I saw myself throw the glass of wine right at him and taking off through the flowers but where would I be going exactly I had no idea where I was.

"Let's have a drink", he said clapping his hands making me wander back from my brain fight.

"It's getting late Jack don't you think we should be heading back home, I told you the situation that I will be in if I am extra late at home", I asked sheepishly. But what if I was being drugged? What if he was putting me up to be r***d or something? "You're absolutely right, then let's get you out of here."

As we were heading out I looked to the side and at the dark end of the flowers I could see a banner with the words 'murderer', I got shocked by what I saw but I looked away and when I turned my head to see if what I saw was true, I found nothing. This was starting to scare me. What is going on around here. I hurried towards the car and took the front seat right next to Jack and looked at the backseat to see if there was anyone there to strangle me or something because after what I saw back there I was starting to have trust issues. I saw the coast was clear and he started the car and drove off. After thirty minutes of driving he stopped by a supermarket and told me to wait for him for he wanted to buy a bottle of water.

As I was waiting for him a car passed by and I saw the same banner I saw back there at the garden with the words 'murder' on it. I was startled by the car door opening and Jack came in with two bottles of water. "Here have one", he said while handing me the bottle. I looked back to the car that was passing by only to find nothing.

The drive was long and boring because none of us said a thing but that was understandable for my part because there were flashes of the events that happened minutes ago and back at the garden making me think more of this as a ghost hunt, and that mere thought gave me the chills, but on the other hand maybe they were all just playing a trick on me to get me scared but I wasn't going to give them the satisfaction. We came to a place which I was familiar with and I led him home.

Looking at the time it was 10pm and all the lights at our house were off except for the lights outside. I stormed off from the car without saying a word to Jack and entered silently into the house because I have the spare keys so it was easy to get in. I tiptoed upstairs and straight to my room. I wasn't surprised that my dad wasn't waiting for me to scold me or anything because he couldn't care less if I died out there.

That's what he'd always wished for anyway.
