Chapter 2 - Chapter one

[Christmas]

Exactly at noon, I decided to go outside in my room, bringing my black backpack where I putted all my things that I'm going to use tonight. I haven't heard anything from him as she tried to go inside my room recently. Maybe he is in his work by now. That's a good thing because I can go now. I immediately walk downstairs and run through the door but my forehead knotted when I can't turn the knob. It's like the door was locked from the outside.

"What the hell?" I try turning again the knob but it was really lock and I know who did this. Carlos! He is really had something in his head. I run towards the backdoor and it was locked at the same time. In frustration, I pulled my hair and headed back in the living room. My eyes averted at the window and a smile formed on my lips. I walk through the window and open the sliding glass before I go out. "I guess he forgot to lock the window. Tsk."

Beep!

"Christmas!"

As I heard the familiar voice calling me, I glance at my back and there I saw Kashia, riding with her new car. She texted me that she is going to fetch me because we are going to mall before we headed at their house. I hurriedly enter at the passenger seat and throw my bag in the backseat.

"So, what is this you are going to tell me?" Kashia asked, driving the car to the nearest Mall here.

"Later I will tell you," I answered and leaned my head at the headboard of my seat.

We are now here inside the mall, strolling, holding our Starbucks we bought in the first floor. While we are walking here with some bunch of people around us, we keep talking about what happened to me earlier. I can't stop to feel nervous while I am telling it to her.

"Woah! You can't be serious, right?" she asked after hearing all what I'd said.

I grimaced. "I'm serious, Kashia."

"Yeah, right. How does your mom meet her Babyboy boyfriend, huh? My gosh, Christmas! He is just almost your brother at his gap to you and your mom is planning him to replace at your dad? Is she out of her mind?"

"I don't know. I don't even know a single thing how did they met. Mom just brought him in the house and introduced him as my sooner new daddy. Gross!"

"It's just funny. Hahaha. Carlos was your mom's boyfriend but he had a desire for you. What did he say? He wasn't really after to your mom because it was you, he wants? Hahaha. Why he didn't just court you instead of your mom?" she asked, laughing at my situation.

"Tsk. As if he is my type." My face was really frowning this moment because on how she acting.

"Cheer up, girl. After you tell your mom about this, everything is going to be normal like before when he wasn't yet around in your lives."

"I hope so."

We continue strolling and never talk anymore about the creepy Carlos. Kashia brought me at the massage center to ease the stress in my mind then after that we decided to eat first before we leave. We are in the middle of our meal when my eyes saw the man I almost curse in death. He was walking, holding a paper bag outside and he fucking look at in our way!

"Kashia, let's go. He is here," I said and quickly stood up in my seat.

"What? Who is here?" she asked and instead of answering her, I grab her hand and walk fast out in the mall, "Christmas, what is going on?"

"Christmas!"

"Wait." Kashia get her hand and stopped walking here in the middle of the parking lot. "Who is that man calling you?" She asked, looking at Carlos who is running towards us.

"That is Carlos, we have to—ahh!"

"Where did you think you were going?" Carlos grabbed my arm tightly in front of my best friend! "Did I tell you that you are not going anywhere?"

"The hell I care on what you'd said! Get off me!" I forcedly took my arm from him. "Let's go, Kashia." I drag her heading to her car.

"Christmas! Come back here or I will come after you!" he shouted angrily without minding the other people here in the parking lot.

"Oh my gosh! He is really creepy," Kashia said as we get inside her car.

"Don't mind him just drive." I look at the back where we left him but he wasn't there anymore.

Kashia start driving the car away from the mall but my feeling was still nervous. My feeling become worst as I saw the car of Carlos tailing us from the back. What the hell is wrong with him?!

"Kashia, we have a problem," I said, biting my lower lip while checking his car from the rear mirror, "He is following us."

"What?!" She quickly looked for a second at the back. "Oh my gosh! Why is he following us, Christmas?"

"I don't know. Just drive fast so we can get in your house."

"Okay, okay. This is crazy!" she replied and drive speedily.

We are almost twenty minutes in the roadway and I didn't saw anymore Carlos's car that tailing us. He surely gave up and go home in the house. It's already getting dark and we are still not at Kashia's house. We still have thirty minutes before we arrive there.

"Are he still following us?" she asked worriedly.

"No. He is already gone—"

Bump!

"Ahh! What the hell was that?!" Kashia asked frustratedly when a car hit us from the back.

I look at the back and my eyes went rounded as I saw it was Carlos who bumped us. "It was him! Drive faster!"

"Oh my gosh! Christmas! This isn't funny!"

"Just drive—"

Bump!

For the second time, Carlos hit us again and I can see his devilry smile from here. What is he really wants? What is he really want from me? He is really out of his mind.

"Christmas! He is scratching my car!" she shouted angrily.

"I'm sorry, Kashia just keep on driving please. We are almost nearly at your house," I begged.

"You owe me for this."

"Don't worry I'm going to replace your car if I become rich," I replied, still looking at his car.

Bump!

"Argh! He is really pissing me off!" Kashia look at the same time at the back.

As I face back in front the way, my eyes went rounded seeing the truck coming straight on us. "Kashia!" I shouted and turn the steering wheel from our left but it seems like a wrong move. The last thing I saw before I pass out was Kashia who's bleeding and unconscious.
