Chereads / Is This First Love? / Chapter 25 - The meet up

Chapter 25 - The meet up

After our wedding had passed, and we were now leaving together, a lot started to happen.

He started to show his true intentions.

Everywhere I went with him he was always there to remind me to behave, be polite and say good things about him. When we both know he wasn't a good guy. He was the devil!

Soon after, he came home one day and just got mad and told me I needed to go and work.

I never saw any problem with working so I decided to look for a counselor job in school because that's what I was studying in school.

Went in for my interviews, they liked it and hired me. Yes, a 18-year-old close to being a 19-year-old was the counselor working at a highschool.

At first I thought it would be great to work, but then when I told him where I was going to work he got angry, nearly laying his hands on me.

The next day when I should start working he said he's coming to work with me.

I told him he can't, because he has his own job to attend to, but truly I was just saying that not to have him walking around behind me.

He cursed and said, "Do you think I'm a fool? I'm not silly enough to let you work at a school where you can find someone else to replace me!".

When he said those words, my guess was that he's just jealous and never wants me around guys that are close to my age.

I never cursed with him and allowed him to come with me, then the other day he decided to work there as a history teacher.

In my mind I was like, "Is this guy stalking me? Can't he go to his own work? I don't need a bodyguard!".

Soon after he started working, it's like he was watching me and his excuse for watching me was that "he doesn't want his treasure to run away cause he will find it and punish it".

He was basically classifying me as a treasure, a thing not a human, not a person, not a young lady that needs to live her own life without having a bodyguard.

Then when Rina started school, I was just turning twenty. Then I saw her file come up, and it was hurting to know she was going through such a horrible life.

I decided to speak to her but then realized that she wasn't so opened so I was going to give her space so she could figured it out then Joseph got upset about something to the point he put his hands on me and I wasn't going to take it so I fought back then he called Rina to speak to me when he knows I was hurting.

Guess I should thank him for helping Rina to be more open with me, but not happy that I had to lie to Rina, making her think that I loved him.

I love nothing about that man! He's a monster! He's the devil in my life!

Sometimes I wish I could just run away from this life I was living and hoping to be reincarnated in a better life where I found true love on my own without my dad's help.

I understand Rina must think of me that I act childish around her and when not around her I'm matured but the truth is I want to be immature most times but being in a mature situation you have to act mature, because if act immature everything will come tumbling over.

And it doesn't take a wise one to know that.

"Mom, I'm leaving!".

"Max, it's around 19:27. You have school tomorrow!".

"Hahaha, I know mom, but this is important. I will be back!" he smiles as he kisses his mother on the cheek.

"Alright, be safe!".

"I will!".

After Max left home, he met up with Liam at a cliff, which was their favorite place to speak about important issues.

When Max arrived, he walked from his bike to the end of the cliff, where he saw Liam standing, waiting for him.

"So, what's the problem?".

"Let's talk somewhere more private…" Liam said, then pulled a remote controller, tapped on a red button, then a rock that was on the cliff opened in half and a handle was present in it.

He pulled down on the handle, then removed his hand, and then the rock closed again.

After the rock closed, the ground of the cliff opened up with a stair inside that leads underground.

"Is it that serious that we have to meet up at our secret base?" Max asks, then sighs after.

"Come Max,".

As they both walked down the stairs, the ground started to close again.

"So, what's the problem?" Max asks as he takes a seat, then lays his palm on a device that scans his palm for his DNA, while Liam was getting a scan of his eyes.

After both scans were finished, the dark empty room they were in suddenly lit up and all the gadgets, devices, weapons, tables, and decorations started to appear in the room.

The room was no longer a room nor an empty dark room, but a secret hideout that they called the "Dark Base".

"Max, do you know the top secret undercover unit that protects the world in the shadows?" Liam suddenly asks as he picks up a tablet and swipes the information on a big screen that came up on the table that was before Max.

"Yes, I know it. They are called the Dark Society, where we got our name from as the Dark Knights,".

"Good, you know them," Liam sighs.

"Why do you sound so worried? What's up?".

"Dark Society wants you to help on a new mission that they have,".

"Okay, what's the mission?".

"Wait, why do you sound so okay and not surprised? They figured out who we are, Max!".

"Liam, calm down. I have worked with them before," Max said as he scratches behind his head.

"Wait, you have worked with them before? I don't understand,".

"Yes, I have worked with them,".

"When?".

"After I left the juvenile, I got a call from this secret force. They abducted me and soon I realized I was in China. They asked me to do a mission with them, but then I refused and since I knew where they were, I had to stay there until they convinced me or killed me. Eventually, being around them, I picked up some more fighting skills, including the fighting with weapons. One day they got behind a mission and couldn't solve it. I looked at the mission and figured out what was missing. Then I earn my spot on their team as a top undercover enforcement for them. Then after a couple months I decided to come back to Canada, and that's when you hit me up and told me about this base that you had built and suggested we be vigilantes,".

"So, why never tell me about this?" Liam asked, annoyingly.

"Because I never thought I was gonna work with them again,".

"Well, you are now!" Liam angrily shouts.

"I'm sorry Liam!".

"Let's just get to the point about this mission they want you on," Liam said as he was ready to close this argument that they were close to start.
