187 She gave up
Keisha
The maid dropped the food on the table and left while he sat on the couch looking at me, I didn’t say anything or touch the food,
“Are you trying to starve yourself to death?” He asked but I didn’t say anything,
“Pick the food and eat,” He said calmly looking at me
“Why don’t you just kill me?”
“You want an easy death so bad, but you made someone suffer for years”
“I already regret all my past, I wish I can turn back the hands of time”
“And you think you can?”
“I can’t, and that’s why I regret everything I did. I already hated myself and wished I could just die and stop existing. I disgust myself. I can’t even forgive myself even if my enemy forgives me. Do you think it’s easy for me too?”
“You’re paying for all your sins, and don’t think you don’t deserve any of the tortures you’re going through”
“Can I ask you one question?”
“What?”
“How did I offend you, I can’t remember having issues with anyone like you in the past, so how did I offend you and why do you hate me so much?”
“You really do not remember my face?” He asked and I shook my head
“I don’t even know you”
“Does Dom, and Tana ring a bell to your ear?”
Immediately he mentioned those names, it occurred to me who he was
“You’re Viper”
“Correct” He smirked, I scoff inwardly knowing who he is, now I know he’s not going to let me leave this place alive, not when he knows everything I did to Dom and Tana
“Why don’t you kill me, I know you’re the last person that wants me alive just kill me already”
“I won’t be giving you such an easy death” He smiled and stood up
“Can I ask for a favor?”
“What favor?”
I breathed out heavily as tears rolled down my cheeks,
“Whenever you meet Dominican and Tana please tell me I’m sorry for all I did to them especially Tana, tell her that I know she would never forgive me, but I want her to know that I regret all I did, I can’t even forgive myself”
“Why are you saying all this to me?”
“Just help me pass the message to her, I might not have the chance to say that to her”
“Hmmm” He nodded and made his way to the door, he was about to pull the doorknob when he halted on his step and turned
“Eat your food you will be needing the energy tonight,” He said to me and finally left. I never knew that a day would come when Viper would be the one to kill me, I can’t believe I secretly love him regardless of the torture he puts me through, how did I end up falling in love with him this much and yet knowing that he will never find out about my feelings and he will be the one to kill me, all this hurts me so bad”
My body has become so numb that I can no longer feel pain, as the day goes by I’m becoming a whole me person, I can’t even look at myself in the mirror, I don’t even love myself anymore, the only thing I feel for myself is hate and disgust, my past is now hurting and hunting me more than ever, I cannot continue to live like this, there’s nothing left for me in this world anymore,
I’ve made up my mind, it’s now or never, it’s better to be dead than to be alive, and wish I was dead, I rather die maybe in my next life, I will get the chance to live a better life, after all, if I die no one is going to ask of me, it’s not like anybody cares about me, I stood up and walk straight to the bathroom, I got there and walk to the jacuzzi, I turned on the water to fill up the jacuzzi,
I took off my dress, taking one last glance at myself on the full-length mirror, I looked away immediately, I hated the sight of me, I now looked unrecognizable beyond repair, I can’t even stand myself anymore, my whole body was covered with so in cuts and bruises, I don’t even look like a human being cause the punishment given to me is so harsh and inhuman, I have bandages all over my body, I wonder what other punishment is he planning to give to me tonight,
I walk back into the room checking the whole drawer to see if I would see anything that belongs to him, I want to hold onto it, maybe in my next life I can reach him using it, I checked all the drawers but found nothing, I was about to give when I sighted a bangle beneath the last drawer, it was a golden mixed red bangle, I took it with smiles and wore it on my right hand, I walked back into the bathroom,
At least I had something to hold onto, something that will remind me of my love for him,All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
I stepped into the jacuzzi and laid flat on it, I was now covered with water, it’s more like I was under the water, I closed my eyes knowing I will never wake up again
In my next life I wish to be a better person, someone Viper will not have deep hatred for. Maybe in that life he will love me just like I love him, but for now, this is the end of me. I held onto the bangle so right and everything went dark…..
