His Mad Obsession

Chapter 2

                        Chapter 2

"Wow, how did you manage to get us a good apartment?" 

Vanilla throws herself on the couch.

"I don't know, I just booked us an apartment, and ta-dah! They say that they checked all the people who will enter El Diablo. Maybe they saw that I'm rich and pretty." 

I rolled my eyes because of what she said.

"So you mean they assigned this apartment to us?" I asked while unpacking my things.

"Hmm, maybe? Stop asking questions, how about we roam around and explore this place for a while?" 

I stopped because of what she said.

She has a point. Maybe we should explore this place for now. I have to find my brother as soon as possible. 

But what if he's not here?

No, I shook my head because of my thoughts.

My instincts are telling me that he's here.

"Yeah, I think we should," I answered.

She smiles.

"Okay! I will just change, wait for me, huh?" 

I just laughed.

She doesn't have to be excited. We're just going to explore this place but I think we should be careful. This place is a home for criminals. Damn, who would think that we will go here? We must be out of our minds, that's right. There's danger in every corner. 

Jackson says that at night, there are gang wars everywhere. People die every single day and you can go clubbing as long as you want. 

Freedom for other people, yeah.

For others, this place was like heaven. You can do whatever you please, and you can also kill.

Aghh, I don't want to witness a murder.

"Wow, look at this mall. This place screams luxury." 

She's right, the mall is massive. It has different cuisines, there are also brands like Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Gucci, and other famous brands. I can't believe my own eyes. 

I stare at those people laughing and enjoying themselves. At first, you may think that it's just a normal mall but no. Women are wearing super shorts and tops while smoking. 

Tsk, a p********e.

Some men are eyeing them like crazy. 

I laughed.

They coated this place with luxury but it's still dirt cheap for me. 

"Let's go," I said.

"Okay, what about eating desserts? I'm craving for something sweet, eh?" 

I nodded.

"Sure, I will eat everything now." 

We both chuckle. 

Vanilla and I love food. It's just that it's our hobby to eat. 

We opened the door in some dessert restaurant and relaxed for a while. 

"Waiter!" Vanilla called the waiter.

"Yes, Ma'am? This is our menu." 

My forehead creased as I looked at the waiter.

He looks like a foreigner and he looks rich too. I stare at his watch, why would a waiter wear a Rolex? 

The hell? This place and its people are strange.

"Aurielle? What's your order?"

"What's on the menu?" I asked.

"Well, I think this restaurant is a French restaurant. See for yourself." She said and handed the menu to me.

Crêpes, French Macarons, Tulipes, Lemon-Berry Savarin?

All French desserts.

I looked at the waiter because there was something in his smile.

"Ahm, I will have a Creme Caramel and Nutella and Berry Crepes," 

"Alright, I will have Palmiers and Cappuccino Souffle." Vanilla smiled at the waiter. "By the way, you look handsome."

My eyes widened.

"Vanilla!" 

This woman has no shame. The waiter chuckles and wink at Vanilla.

"Thank you for the compliment, Madam." He said. "But how about drinks?"

I rolled my eyes and answered.

"We will have apple juice, thank you."

The waiter smiles again and bows his head before leaving.

What's wrong with him, he's smiling as if he's programmed to smile every day.

"What's wrong with you? Flirting with the waiter?"

She pouted.

"What? Can't I? I'm single and pretty, I can have any guy I want." 

Single my ass. 

I was about to answer when I heard something.

"Let go of me!"

"You who*re! I own you, you can't go anywhere!"

What is happening? I saw a girl being harassed by a man. But to my surprise, people are just watching the scene. They look like they are enjoying it while the woman is crying for help.

"Ouch, help, please!"

"I will kill you, b***h!"

Vanilla and I gasped when the man pulled her hair and choked her.

"Oh my gosh, am I going to witness a murder here?"

I sigh and stand up.

I can't watch this.

"Aurielle!" I heard Vanilla calling me but I just neglected it.

I can't believe that people tolerate this kind of abuse. They're sick, some are just laughing and some are taking pictures. 

Are they normal?

Everyone gasped when I kicked the man so he could let go of the poor woman.

"Who is she?"

"What is she doing?"

"Is she out of her mind?"

I didn't mind the people around me and just looked at the girl who was silently crying and gasping for air.

"Are you okay?" I asked.

She looks at me and I can see that she's trembling in fear. 

"Who the hell are you, b***h?" 

I closed my eyes when I heard the useless jerk who almost killed a girl. 

"Are you gay? Why would you hurt a girl?" 

He glares at me.

"Are you new here? Woman, maybe you don't know the rules but don't mess with me. That woman is mine, I will do whatever I want because that who*re is mine!" 

I stare at the woman.

"Does he own you?" 

She gulped because of my question. She looks terrified but I just gave her a warm smile.

"Don't be scared, does he own you?" 

"b***h, back off!"

"N-no," 

"What did you just say?" The man shouted in anger.

I smirk.

"See? You don't own her, so leave her alone." 

He gritted his teeth.

"Get out, come here b***h! I'll teach you another lesson!" 

"D-don't!"

My eyes widened when he pushed me and pulled the girl. His eyes are red because of anger. 

"No!" I shouted when the man picked out his knife. 

"Aurielle!" Vanilla calls me but this is getting out of hand.

He was about to hurt the woman using his knife when I quickly stopped it using my hand.

"b***h let go of me!" 

"No! Let go of her, you crazy!" 

Damn, this jerk is strong but I can't let him kill a woman in front of me.

"P-please help!" The girl cried.

I cussed when the knife hit my hand. 

"Ooh, interesting."

"That woman must be crazy, she doesn't even know the rules."

I sighed and punched the man in the face. I'm done, I'm going to kill this jerk.

I punch him again and again, he drops the knife and releases the girl. 

"I will kill you!" He said.

"Sure," I kicked him in the face and pulled his hair. "You son of a b***h, who permits you to hurt a woman, huh? Don't you have a mother?" 

"Aurielle!" 

I didn't mind Vanilla and just punched the man in the face. I can see the blood on his face but it doesn't satisfy me.

"S-stop." 

My hand stopped in the air when I heard the poor girl beg. 

"Please, s-stop. Y-you're going to kill him." She said,

Damn it.

I stare at the man and she's right. 

What did I do?

I took a step back and stared at my hands.

I gulped.

"Aurielle, oh my gosh! Come here." Vanilla holds my hand.

"V-van," 

She sighed.

"It's okay, it's okay." She whispered and pulled me away.

What did I do?
