The taxi driver reluctantly agreed and took the man to a hospital nearby leaving Alyssa with the corpse. She asked a pa.s.serby about the man"s address and hired another taxi taking the corpses with her towards his house.The house was located in a run-down place with not a proper building to be seen. Every building was broken. "This place doesn"t have a proper drainage system." She thought, when she saw human feces all over the place. The taxi moved forward and she saw people collecting water from a drain. They were even fighting if other person collected more water than needed.
All she can hear cries of children, their mothers beating them, fights taking place between spouses or random fights taking place in the road between two groups.
This area was in total contrast with the Royal City. Living there Alyssa had never thought that a place like this could have existed in Coral Bells.
The taxi stopped near a run-down place. It was a very small house made of bricks. Only some of the areas were cemented. She alighted from the taxi and knocked on the wooden main door of the house. The door seemed old and hollow. The wood had probably soaked a lot of moisture so it felt a little wet when touched. The door was so weak that a single kick from a child can break it.
When her first knock went unanswered, she knocked once again. She heard footsteps coming towards her. The door opened and Alyssa saw a heavily pregnant woman in front of her. The woman seemed to be in her late twenties. She was pet.i.te and beautiful. Seeing her Alyssa became hesitant. Thousands of questions ran in her mind. "What if the news shocked her? What if this news harm her baby? How should I deliver her such news that her husband is in hospital and the rest of the family is dead?
What should she do?
Alyssa didn"t know the mental capacity of the woman. Neither she was familiar with her nor she knew how to deliver the bad news.
It was also said that werewolves are most unstable during their pregnancy. There are either worse mood or great mood, nothing in between.
She said, "Sorry, I came to the wrong address. Sorry, once again for disturbing you."
After saying that she returned to the taxi and told the driver to take her to the cemetery. She buried the corpses together and wrote – "Foundation of Revolution". Something that she will always remember. This will cause a change that will occur in the future.
Alyssa went to school with a heavy heart. She knew she had to face Dianna. She cannot hide from her forever. She also knew that Jacob is a coward when it comes to confessing something or when admitting his wrongdoings.
She entered the school building and was soon greeted by her friends. Dianna was among them. Alyssa gauged her facial expressions. Dianna seemed sad but not devastated. Her eyes seemed puffy and Alyssa thought she might have cried the previous night. To get a better understanding of the situation she directly asked her, "How"s your relations.h.i.+p with Jacob now?"
Dianna was startled with sudden questioning. The question was heavy and all her friends knew this so everyone was trying to avoid this topic as much as possible.
Dianna hesitated for a while but truthfully answered, "I… I don"t know what"s going on between us. He keeps ignoring me. Tomorrow we even kissed he was even talking sweetly but I don"t know what happened next, I just asked him his reason for ignoring me these days and the next second we were arguing. And since then he is not answering any of my calls. I… I really don"t know what to do…."
In the end, her voice broke and tears started dripping from her eyes.
Alyssa clenched her fist in anger. That son of a bi*** kissed her yesterday when he was busy kissing that sl** Anri. Alyssa wanted to murder them.
Alyssa glanced at other direction when her eyes met Jacob"s eyes. He was frowning and staring her with hatred. He mouthed something. Alyssa read his lips it was, "Don"t you dare."
His words flamed her anger. She focused her attention on Dianna and solemnly said, "I have something to tell you." Her voice was loud enough for Jacob to hear.
"But not here. Let"s go to our spot." Alyssa added. She held Dianna"s hand and walked past Jacob. When they were walking towards their spot the heard a loud bang from their back. Dianna wanted to turn and see what was happening. But Alyssa held her hand tightly and whispered "Let"s go."
They arrived at their spot. It was a deserted place where Alyssa used to come to cool her off from all the bullying she was receiving. Later when she met Dianna, it became their spot. And as the group grew, that spot became their group spot.
Alyssa sat under a tree, on the gra.s.s and patted the s.p.a.ce beside her for Dianna to sit. Along with Dianna, Marcus and Kale also sat.
"Do you trust me?" Alyssa asked.
Seeing Alyssa so serious Dianna didn"t try to joke. She nodded her head.
The atmosphere became tense. Everybody"s face held a serious expression. Alyssa looked towards their faces and after a short pause, she said, "I am truly very sorry Dee for breaking this bad news to you but I have to say it. Jacob is cheating on you." She stopped for a while to let the news sink. She gauged Dianna"s reaction. She can see different emotions running on her face.
She then continued, "I saw Jacob with someone else the other day, cheating on you. I gave him one day time to confess everything but he backed out."
Dianna was in disbelief. When she thought everything was going alright in between her and Jacob, and their relations.h.i.+p was getting better, everything went downhill.
"But….. But we were getting better. I…. I... How ?" Dianna was at loss of words.
They were even kissing and flirting yesterday. They were happy. She was happy and he seemed happy too. So how can he cheat on her with someone else? How can he kiss her after kissing someone else?
"But… we kissed." Her voice was so low and was so painful. it held so much pain and hope that it stabbed Alyssa"s heart. She held her hands and said, "He was faking it. I think he is cheating on you for a long time. Don"t think about him. You will be alright. He is not worthy of your tears."
Dianna hugged Alyssa tightly and cried like a child in her arms.
Marcus and Kale scooted closer and hugged Dianna from the back. Kale even started crying along with Dianna. After a while, Dianna controlled her emotions and wiped her tears. Then she looked towards the crying Kale and smiled. She pinched his cheeks and said, "I wish I had a boyfriend like you." This make Kale turn crimson and everybody present laughed at the scene.
