Freak

His Anger

Eve wanted to share everything which is troubling her, but she chooses to keep her mouth sealed. She rests in her grams arms for few more minutes before the room.

Flora knew very well that Eve is fibbing just to save hers and John relation, she’s too innocent to recognise that there is nothing left to be saved, her uncle John is now a completely changed man, who is only filled with bitterness towards her.

“Why he is no longer considerate and kind..?, He was completely blinded by his hatred towards Eve that he didn’t want to see the truth.....” Flora thinks rubbing her temples, she was upset as because of her son’s behaviour, her whole family is breaking apart.

“Sorry, Denzil, Sorry for failing you.” She sobbed missing her elder son, If he was alive then her family picture would have been different filled with affection. How will she face her son after her death?

John’s word still stuck in Flora's mind making her heartache more and more whenever she thinks about it, “Eveleen is responsible for their death, it was her who push them to go on vacation just for her selfish reason.” From last one year, she was trying to pursue him that his perceptions toward Eve are wrong.

How can a kind and sweet girl like Eve is responsible for her parent’s accident, it was their fate, she also lost her parents there is no one to blame except for God.

***********

Meanwhile, at Dallas in Colon Empire, John was sitting on the chair of President which once belongs to his brother late Denzil Colon.

He was younger always a rebellion in his family and as Denzil was elder than him, he was appointed as a president and soon got married to an Indian girl Lauren Sinha, was a pure example of an angel.

John was close to his family especially his big brother, but there was something about Lauren which made him lost his mind, he was captivated by her mind and beauty. What else he can do except stay quiet and keep his feeling with him as she was his sister-in-law now. He began observing her from distance. He becomes distant with his brother but their bond never changed a little.

Soon everything starts changing when Eveleen was born, He starts burning with jealousy with his brother. He had everything which he never gets, power, position, a most beautiful wife and now a lovely angel-like daughter.

But now when he received a promising position in the Colon Empire, he lost his family. He had a loving wife Jessica Colon, who is also his assistant.

He should be more generous towards Eveleen but how can he ignores the fact that his brother Denzil and Lauren died when they were going out on Eveleen’s 16th birthday, He even tries to convince them not to go but because of Eveleen’s request to go to the beach house, they left and died on their way. It was the darkest day for the Colon family.

He loathes Eveleen from the core of his heart and blames her for everything, The way his mom responded him on call and hung up on him like he doesn’t even exist for her it makes his blood boil. “Now she turned my mom against me. That little......” he thinks to himself swirling on the armchair trying to ease his heighten animosity toward Eveleen.

He starts grinding teeth to control his outburst and called Jessica in his cabin. His eyes were red with rages. When She entered in, She senses the temperature and tension in the cabin without uttering a word she sits in a chair in front of his working desk, When John feels her presence he turns his chair around to face her.

When Jessica saw her husband drinking at such an odd time she got worried for him, She stares at his red eyes and shutters in low voice feeling afraid of his anger, “ L....Love, W.....wha...what h......hap.....happened...?”

John bangs his fist on the desk making Jessica flinches a little in her chair, “ I’ve told you to not do anything extra for her and you crossed me...? Did you forgot your place....?” he moved closer to her only to grab her jaw roughly in his large hand. “ Stop interfering and messing with me..... Got it???”.

“But John she.....she's Denzil and Lauren's, daughter your niece, how.....” before she can complete her sentence a hard slap landed on her white cheeks making it instantly red.

“Get lost” John roared at Jessica, She runs out from the cabin covering her right cheek, heavy tears streaming down her eyes. She was shivering in fear.

“I’ve been treating her like s**t, still, she’s clinging to me. Shameless woman...Fuck I hate her....” he thinks about his relationship with Jessica, he only married her for his convenience but she starts developing feeling for him, and he can’t love Jessica as his love and heart belong to someone else, He doesn’t have a heart anymore all he had is coldness towards everyone.

Jessica on the other hand in ladies room crying her heart out, it was evening and other staff were gone, She was all alone with her Devil cold-hearted husband, “ Why he’s now cruel to me.?, When 14 months ago on Lauren's Birthday, Lauren introduced her to John. Who were the most the gentle and the kind man she ever saw in her entire life. But everything has changed when Denzil and Lauren died, and she gets married to John more the sack of convenient.”

“ I tried everything to earn his love, even bearing his every abuse and torture. I didn’t even visit my best friends daughter Eveleen after her death whom I cherish like my own daughter.... Why? Just because of John. And because of him, I can’t feel the joy of motherhood. It should put to an end, I can’t tolerate him anymore.” She thinks to herself wiping out her tears, taking the pledge to get over him and leave that toxic man as soon as possible.

She knew that Flora and Eveleen will support her in her hard times whether it is because of John or someone else.

***********

In New York, Eveleen was curling under duvets weeping and snuggling her bunny hard trying to hide from her pathetic life. Her eyes were swelled cause of continuous crying.

When she felt like her tears have dried out and her throbbing head giving her a harder time. She set straight and clutch her mom's pendant and said with cracked voice. “ M....mom D...d....dad, wh......why di...did you le....leave me..? I should have d....died instead of you...... I I m....miss you so so so much..I I love you..”

Eve walked over the dresser and sit on the stool in front of it. She looked closely over her reflection and said in between sobbing. “me, I miss them. Look at us how unfortunate we look without them.” She sighed heavily picking her comb up, Eve starts to detangle her hairs. She knew that grams will call her for dinner soon and she doesn’t want to frighten her grams with her ghostly appearance.

In the dining room, Evan organized dinner and called Flora and Eve to join before the food gets cold.

Flora was sitting on a head chair, Evan on her left and when Eve enters in she ignored their stares and sit on the right. She keeps her head low to hide her swollen eyes.

Flora didn’t ask anything, as she already knew the reason behind her silence.

Evan saw Eve, her face looks pale, eyes colourless and swollen, “ Is she......” before he can form all words in his mind flora elbowed him indicating not to say or ask anything.

Evan was breathing heavily as he knew he couldn’t stop about thinking why she’s upset, So he uses a trick to control his thought, he starts counting, “1....2......3.......4......5......6.....7.....8....”

Eve glared at him, “9.......10.......11....” Evan proceeds counting further ignoring Eve's eyes.

Eve knew well that he’s doing it just to give her some space but it was only annoying her more. “Evan!” Eve said in a firm warning tone.

Evan gave her questioning look, as he doesn’t know what he did wrong he scowls in a way that both of his eyebrows kissing each other, with pouty lips and crunching nose. His expressions were entertaining. “ don’t do it, Evan... ” Eve said this time with a small smile and not so fussy tone. Eve found him funny same as Shaggy in Scooby-Doo cartoon.
