“I think that note is meant for me” I froze the moment he said so, and I turned to look at him in disbelief.

“How sure are you?”

“I am one hundred percent sure to have noticed that the handwriting belongs to Liam” I couldn’t believe what I was hearing! Liam had been so wicked to have committed such a heinous crime.

“I gotta go, I think it’s time I face my fears” He turned and walked through the student and I followed him, almost bumping into one of the students.

“What do you think you are doing?” I said holding his hands and stopping him right on his track.

“Look Elena, if there is anyone who can stop Liam right now, that person is me. It’s about time we both had the conversation that I had been avoiding for years” He had the look of determination on his face.

“Mac, don’t go. You have clearly seen what he is capable of doing, if he could do that to someone just to send a message to you, I can only imagine what he would do to you when he sets his eyes on you” I was hoping he would listen, but knowing Mac, he was a stubborn guy.

“Look Elena, my mind is made up on this subject matter and you cannot change it” He wiggled free from my grasp and walked out of the school premises. There was one last option I had in changing his mind;

“If you go and meet Liam, then you can consider our relationship over” He stopped right in his tracks and sighed, turning to look at me.

“Why are you so keen on making sure that I don’t go?”

“Because I know that he would kill you. I don’t want that happening, I want us to be together, we can run away from here, you and I out of his life for good” I could see the series of emotions playing through his eyes.

I held his hands and said “You don’t have to be the monster he wants you to be Mac, you don’t have to go to that place, I love you and I want you to stay alive for me, for us” I leaned close to him and hugged him, not giving a damn in the world what everyone would think.

We stood there for almost a minute, before breaking things up. “There is something I was hoping I would let you know,” He said.

“What is it?” I was already filled with suspense.

“I kinda now live in the same street with you. I tried telling you the other night I came to your place but he didn’t want to talk to me that night.”I looked at him for a moment and instantly the memories of the new apartment came to my mind.

“Wait a minute, your dad is the owner of the new apartment?” I asked.

“Yes, he thought it would be cute getting to shift apartments without my knowledge” For some reason, he seemed angry.

“It’s a good thing though, we would get to see each other more often” I was glad that I could easily find a place to go, away from the horrors of my house.

“Let’s get out of here, I don’t want Principal Alice seeing us here and thinking of other punishment to give to us” I laughed and we both locked hands together and left the school premises.

I sigh stepping into my apartment. Here I was going to meet my nightmare, probably drunk as usual or in the room having intercourse with Dylan – my ex-boyfriend.

Entering the living room, I saw her lying on his lap with clothes covered on her head.

“Hi,” I said absentmindedly and was about to head for my room when Dylan called on me.

“What do you want?” I was not ready for any of their trouble, I just wanted to rest.

“You must have some nervous young lady, first off you left the house for days and now your mom is sick and you just waltz past her without saying anything?” I turned to look at her to see that she was indeed sick.

“Well, that’s good for her” I replied.

“What did you say?” He stood up from the couch and approached me looking all pissed.

“Well, I said that’s good for her” I felt a hot sting on my cheek, which caused me to go down..

I couldn’t process what had just happened! Dylan just smacked me! I looked up to see him filled with rage.

“You stupid bitch, you are so unappreciative of the type of mother you have,” He said, pulling off his belt.

“I don’t have a mother, she stopped being my mom the moment you both started seeing each other” The belt in his hand landed on my skin and I shouted out real loud.

“The last thing I would have you do is insult her. She is mine and I don’t care what people think and I don’t fucking care what you think also” I was sobbing and summoned the courage to look up at him to see the rage in his eyes.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

“Dylan, why? Why have you chosen to be an asshole” I guessed it was the wrong thing to do as he whipped me yet again with the belt.

“You would not regard me with such words again, I am by implication your step dad and you would give me the respect that I so need” He came down heavily on me and started throwing a series of punches on my delicate skin.

“I tried fighting back but it was in vain because he was stronger than me”

I turned to see my mom not giving a damn that I was being beaten up. He kept on throwing punches after punches as I lay there helplessly. There was nothing I could do but just cry.

“You will learn to respect me afterward! You piece of shit” He said, standing up from me.

I dragged myself away from his presence and mustered all the strength within me to stand up to get to my room.

I wondered what was the essence of living when I knew that this was the type of life I had come to live.

Things hadn’t always been like this, I had always loved my parents until dad stopped loving mom because of her behavior and no they are about to get divorced and now mom has found the person she wants to spend her life with and he is not just anyone, she had planned to settle down with someone I called my boyfriend.
