Chapter 10 - Chapter 10: Wrong Address

Belinda's P.O.V

"Get off me! Let go! Let me go!" I shouted while pushing him off to the wall. Spat on the floor and rubbed off his stupid kiss.

"What are you doing here?!" I asked.

He tries to speak but doesn't seem to get the right words to say. He then tries to make a step towards me.

"Don't you even dare! Don't try it!" I yelled.

"Belinda, listen to me, we've got to talk!" He Said.

"There's nothing to talk about, now leave before I call the cops because what you just did is called trespassing! I said to him as I tried pushing him out.

"Linda I'm better now! Look at me! Everything is meaningless without you!" He stated with alot of emotions attached.

Dave! Just go! Leave!

"Tell me you didn't feel anything in that kiss?!" He asked.

I quickly grab him by the hand and drag him to the exit, push him out and close the door.

He screams my name on the other side but ignore him and run back to my room.

I tack myself in, close my eyes and pray for sleep to take me over and save me from that idiot.

I wake up to Kelly's text, I immediately text back.

Me: What happened yesterday?!

Kelly: Louis invited me over, Bel things are going on so well with Louis!

Me: Wow! You two deserve it! Best of luck dear.

Kelly: So what was so urgent? Don't ask me to guess because I can't.

Me: I've got a job at LA SCOOPERS'! Starting tomorrow!

Kelly: Again! Are sure you wanna do this?!

Me: Don't worry, everything is settled. Enough with that, do you know Dave came to my house yesterday and kissed me out of the blue! I felt like throwing up!

Kelly: Next time just call the cops! Maybe then he will learn his lesson.

Me: I told him that, anyway will you come with me today to visit my parents' graves?

Kelly: Sure! Call me soon as you're ready, I'll pick you up!

I got some general cleaning done throughout the entire house. Fix myself some chicken soup and a few bread rolls.

I sat back on the couch, dip some bread into the soup and take a bite.

Mmm! Yammy! I take another bite! For some reason the blank CD crosses my mind.

I got an idea and pick up my phone.

Kelly, do you know of a technician that can check faulty CDs?

I waited for a while to see if she could reply immediately.

Within no time, she sends me a text!

Yes, we will check on him after visiting your late parents.

I finished my soup in one sip, picked my bag from my room and Checked if I still had some hard Cash. Seems I just got lucky! Fixed the CD into my bag and left the house. Gave Kelly a call to inform her that I'm good to go.

Within no time, Kelly pulls over in her expensive car. Had forgotten to mention that!

I get into the passenger's sit, put on my sit belt and then Kelly started the car.

"Can I have a look at the directions?" Kelly requests.

Sure! I hand the directions to her.

"Oh, I know that semetary! It's not even far!" She mentions .Actually two hours left and we're there!

After two hours like she mentioned, we are already at the semetary.

"Bel, you can do this, if you want I can come with you." Says Kelly.

"Here, I got some flowers for you." Kelly hands me the flowers.

Thank you, I totally forgot about them! I open the car and move out. I walk slowly to the graves which appear to be so close to each other. One indicating Melissa Parkers and the other indicating Mathew Parkers. I kneel down and place the flowers on each, light both candles and make prayers for them.

May the good Lord keep lighting up your graves. May he pardon you and may you continue resting in peace until we meet again.

Tears roll down my eyes. I feel someone's hands on my shoulder.

I turn around and see Kelly standing besides, she kneels down and embraces me.

"Cry it out, if it's going to do you any good then cry as much as you can, let it out! I'll always be here for you." She says as she holds me tighter.

"Excuse me ladies!" A voice of an elderly man startles us. We turn around in fear to see who it is.

"Don't be scared my children!" He states as he moves closer.

"Don't cry, prayers are much better for the dead than tears." He says soon as he reaches us.

"Don't make the soul restless with your tears, I'm certain it is still wondering around." He adds.

"What do you mean?!" Kelly and I ask at the same time.

"Look closely at the grave, it's still fresh, I was sitting in that corner when they were burrying the poor lady earlier this morning, I didn't see the dead body though, people weren't even that much except for two men dressed in some poor clothes even though they didn't appear to be poor." He answers in a low but scary voice.

"Bel, we've got to go." Kelly tells me but my mind seem far. I could feel her voice shake.

"Did my Aunt really have to go this far?!" I wondered.

"Bel, Bel! Listen, are you even listening to me! I think you got a wrong address!" Kelly yells.

"Perhaps the piece of paper I stole from her is the one with the right address!" I thought out loud.

"You've got another piece of paper?!" Kelly asks.

"Yeah I do, but guess we'll do it some other time when we are free." I answer and quickly stand up.

We walked back to the car and drove off to the technician's shop.

Kelly hands him the CD soon as we get inside.

"Allow me use the spirit first and if it fails, we'll try something else." He says as he pours some spirit onto a piece of cotton. He then cleans the CD.

"Do you want me to try it out, or the information on it is confidential?" He asks while looking at us both.

"We'll check it from home and give a you call, or probably come back if it doesn't play!" Kelly replies. So how much do we owe you?

"Never mind! It's free!" He replies with a smile.

"Are you sure?" Kelly asks him.

"Come on Kelly we've known each other for quite sometime time now, you've been a great support to my shop! Take it as a token of appreciation for all your support." He answers.

Fine then, thank you! We keep in touch! Bye!

Kelly sets off soon as we get comfortable in our seats.

After a four hours drive, we say goodbye to each other. I thank Kelly for everything.

"Don't think so much about what happened today, take some rest. You wouldn't want to report to work tomorrow with dirk circle around your eyes." She says and gets in the car.

I watch her leave and quickly go inside.

I don't waste anytime. I quickly turn on the television, insert the CD and it begins to load. Eventually it starts playing.

"Where's she?! Someone shoots bullets all through the room!"

"Mathew come out!" She yells!

"That's my Dad's name!" I whisper to myself in total surprise as I kept my eyes on the screen.

I watch my Aunt dragging my dad out of the guest room into the corridor.

"Where's Melissa?!" If you don't speak up now I won't even remember you are my brother! How dare you sign the only property I love into Melissa's names! That opportunist! How dare you?!" She shouted.

"What property?!" I asked in total dismay. Could it be the reason she hates me that much?!

I was still adding up things when I heard gunshots!

"Noooooooo!" I screamed! "Noo!" I cried out! She killed my dad! She killed him! Where's mum?! I search the television screen out of confusion.

Where's mum?! I break down next to the wall as heavy tears roll down my cheeks.

"If you're watching this video, there's no doubt you're crying right now! I'm so scared what your aunt will do if she finds me." Mum cries out.

I look up to see my mum crying in fear only to discover she was pregnant! I guess that was me in her belly.

The video disconnects soon as mum heard a knock on her door.

Suddenly I remember the old man's words at the semetary.

Could it be that mum was not killed, or perhaps she was killed soon after and aunt only gave me a wrong address to torment me.

I pick up the other piece of paper, open it and see another address written on it. Turn off the television and go to my room. Place the paper in my bag and lay down on the bed.

Finally sleep takes me over.

Author's note

Will Belinda be able to report for work and act as though nothing has happened or will she let the shocking truth get in the way and stop her from achieving her goals?! How is she going to deal with it. Will she let her aunt know she discovered something about her considering how well she knows her or will she swallow the sad truth and let it kill her silently?!

Thank you so much?!

More and more coming up!

love y'all!
