Visitor from Last Night

Chapter 6

Hi kitties

Alicia

I was still confused by what William had told me. Which debt is he under and that debt, too, was given by me?

I came out of that thought because, well, he is the only one who can explain me better than anyone else. I looked at the card which he gave me. He is the president of a company. When I was still in America, I hardly attended any business parties. My brother used to tag along a lot. So knowing him is almost close to zero.

I should call him to ask him this, but what would I say? I am curious already. I picked up my call as I couldn't hold on to my curiosity longer. The ring was going and after few minutes he picked up.

"I didn't expect that you would call so soon." He said and chuckled.

"I wanted to ask you something." I said.

"Yeah, sure what is it?" He asked.

"About which debt you were talking about?" I asked and he chuckled.

"Dear, this is not the right time to reveal it. Soon it will be revealed about the debt I have been talking about." He said and hung up. The time is not right...

I sighed. Why did I in the first place, even think that I might get my answer?

"Will you be here for the rest of your life?" I heard Sam's voice and I glared at her and she chuckled.

"I am going home." I said.

"By sitting over here only." She said and I shook my head.

"I will take my leave now. Bye." I said and went to take my bag and went out and started to walk away. Today my shift ended quickly, but I wasn't feeling like going home right now. But do I have another place to stay? I sighed. There is, but I don't want to disturb them. I will just go home.

Today it was nice when I saw Alfredo. He has changed a lot in these two years. No doubt no girl couldn’t resist him. I chuckled at my own thoughts. I don't know how others would be. I know that now I am far from them, in fact very far from them, so it will be hard for me to know anything about them and whatever information I get about them is through news only, and I know that they are doing pretty well without me as none of the news was holding anything about me.

I looked up and saw that I had come quite far and the bus stand was behind. I couldn't go home by walking only, so I went back to the bus stand and settled myself there. Today, when talking to William, I felt good that there was someone with whom I could share my things. He must be twice my age or maybe more. He is a good person by personality, but I don't know what his true self is. I am doubting myself if I had done something wrong by telling him everything about me? And even if he has any intention, he must change them as he will get nothing by coming after me.

I saw my bus coming and as it stopped in front of me, I climbed up and got a seat for myself. During my whole ride I was looking outside.

There are many things which we don't know that will happen in the future, just like in my case. I hadn't thought that someday I would be able to stand up for myself and would do something which may hurt someone else's feelings but would make me gain the freedom which I wanted. There are people who hurt others to gain something. Am I one of them? I don't know if maybe this decision will someday show my result, or maybe I am seeing the result.

My stop arrived and from here my house is ten minutes away by walking. I was walking, looking at the ground only. In my head right now, many things are there which I haven't thought about. Today I have described the view towards life, but have I ever actually given it of? Or was it just what I felt at that time?

And when I explained it to him, he smiled as well. I don't know what he knows, but after what I have seen in two years, that is what I came up with. I reached my house and knocked on the door and soon Brandon opened the door.

"How was your day?" He asked. It is like a regular routine that he asks me that same thing. I am glad that there is someone who asks me that question on a daily basis.

"Good" I said, and he smiled. I freshened up and sat down with my thoughts.

"What happened?" He asked, and I decided to ask him the question which was wandering inside my mind.

"Brandon, suppose someone curbed your freedom. Will you hurt them to get your freedom?" I asked him and for a while he didn’t say anything, which made me wonder if it was alright for me to ask such a question to him.

"Yeah, I will. It is my freedom and I have the whole right to it and no one has that right to curb it and even if I had to hurt them to get my freedom, then I would." He asked.

“What if they are near and dear?”

“That makes the situation a bit complex because they are also important along with my freedom. But why are you asking that?” I sighed.

"Because I had hurt someone just because I wanted freedom." I said, and he looked at me.

"Whom?" He asked.

"My parents, no, in fact, my whole family." I said and he didn't say anything.

"Has something happened that you have to hurt them?" He asked and I nodded.

"There are many which irritate me a lot, but I don't want to talk about that." I said, and went outside the house to get some fresh air. The wind blew, and I felt coldness run through my body.

"Are you crazy? It is cold outside and you came outside." He said and wrapped me in his jacket.

"I just need some fresh air." I said and started to walk away.

"Does your past hurt you a lot?" He asked me and I nodded my head.

"It will hurt only because I have hurt someone who has brought me into this world." I said, and he nodded.

"I don't know what has happened to you, but I hope that soon you get what you deserve." He said and started to walk with me.

"Tomorrow must be your holiday." He said and I looked confused.

"What is tomorrow?" I asked him.

"Tomorrow is Saturday." He said, and I remembered.

"Yeah, tomorrow is my holiday. Tomorrow someone else will take my place." I said, and he nodded.

"Sometimes you don't feel lonely living in that house?" He asked and I smiled.

"I do feel it, but now I am habitual to it, and why are you asking so many questions? Have you contacted your family?" I asked him and he shook his head.

"Why?" I asked him.

"I will do it, but not now." He said.

"Don't you want to go home?" I asked him.

"Not now. I like it here. Sometimes I wished to have a small house and wanted to live a life like this. I think that they have already gotten the news that I am not in my hotel, and soon they will find me." He said and I nodded. I don't know why, but I don't like the idea of letting him go, but he doesn't belong here, and his life is not destined to be here. He has a big empire to control and no one can stop him. I hope they will find him soon and the unwanted feeling which I have towards him will fade away soon.
