Chereads / The Legend Of The Four / Chapter 5 - Karma Is A Bully

Chapter 5 - Karma Is A Bully

I was christened Amelia Rose Allen, by my parents on the day of my birth. I was born and raised in New York, America.

My friends and family called me Mia.

When it came to money, my family was very rich and my parents always got me everything I wanted.

I was spoiled rotten by them, whenever I asked for something I would usually get that on the same day.

My mom was a little bit against spoiling me but my dad didn't cared about it because according to him, all the hard work that he is doing to get that money is to make sure that his family his happy.

This made me grow up arrogant and stubborn, the pampering by my parents was not the only reasons behind it, the other one was my looks.

Wherever I would go, I would be flushed with comments about how good I look or how beautiful my hair or eyes are or how I'm making the dress that I'm wearing look beautiful just by wearing it.

It was to be expected, as who wouldn't get such comments if they had my looks.

I had beautiful golden blonde hair which went well with my light blue eyes and as a cherry on top I had fair rosy skin.

I won many beauty pagenats because of my looks and by the time I was in high school I had many secret admirers and my locker would be filled with many proposals and confession letters.

In school I would make some of the nerdy students do my schoolwork and when they didn't listened to me, I would put pressure them in doing so and I would often use my boyfriend for this, who was a part of the school's soccer team.

I never actually loved my boyfriend, he was just a toy of my whims who always did what I told him to do.

I know it is wrong to manipulate someone to do my dirty deeds and also making other people do your work forcefully, but the me at that time couldn't care less about other's feeling.

My life at that time was perfect, I was the most popular girl in my schools and had many friends, my wishes were fulfilled always and I really didn't had to care about thing that much.

But then out of nowhere tragedy struck our family.

My dad had a really bad car accident and he went into coma due to it and it was sthe start of our downfall.

The company that my dad used to run was snatched away by the shareholders and we were given only a small pension which barely kept a roof on top of our head.

My mom and I had to move out of our big house and move into a small apartment and I also had to withdraw my name from the private school and had to join a public one.

All of my friends left me and even my boyfriend, which was to be expected as they were only with me for my money and nothing else, but it still surprised me that I had no one one my side.

As if this wasn't enough, my mom started drinking day and night, there was no sight of the loving and caring mother that I once knew and love, all that was left of her was a drunkard.

She would also come back late at night and would always be accompanied by a unknown man, each day the man would change and would be gone by the morning and sometimes she would not even come home.

I was not dumb to not understand what she was doing and I fought with her on many occasions just because of this and she would just shout at me and tell me that whatever she is doing is her business and it provides the food that I'm eating and if she was drunk enough then she would even hit me.

I would visit my dad in the hospital everyday and would tell him about everything that's going about in our house and would cry and beg him to wake up.

I didn't cared about money anymore, I didn't cared if we lived in a big house, I didn't care if go to an expensive private schools and I didn't cared if I got the most expensive gifts for my birthday. I just wanted my mom and dad to go back to normal, I just wanted my family to be the same again.

One day I was returning late at night from the hospital, I was hurrying home as the streets around the house weren't safe for a girl to use in the dark.

I quickly opened the door to our apartment and went in. No sooner did I went in I could hear noises of a conversation, coming from my mother's room so I went to her room door and decided to peek at what she's doing.

There was a man sitting on my mother's bed which I recognized as one of my father's company shareholders who I've met before in parties and he was completely naked and my mom standing near him, only wearing a bathrobe. I didn't wanted to look but at the same time I was curious about their conversation so I kept on doing so.

"You know I'm a man of my word, all you have to do is give me yourself and I'll make sure your daughter gets into a good college and gets out of this hellhole for good" he said with looking at my mother with eyes filled with lust.

"I'll take it up and you must help me let my daughter get out of this place and ill do whatever you want " my mom said to him with dead bleak eyes.

I couldn't dare to listen to their conversation anymore and I ran out of the house while tears were pouring out of my eyes.

Knowing that my mom had to do all this and suffer all of this, just for the sake of me, I couldn't handle this.

I didn't know where I was running until a something suddenly jumped in front of me out of nowhere and that's when I realized how far I've run and currently I was in a dark alleyway with and I there were two men standing in front of me.

"Where are you running like that, maybe we could be of some help?" asked one of the man and it was clear that he didn't had any intention of helping me.

"Were you crying? Don't worry, now that you've found us we could make you happy" said the other man with a malicious tone.

I knew that if I tried to run, then I could be easily caught by them so I need to distract them somehow and find a way to escape and thats when an idea came to me.

I quickly jumped over one of the man, catching both of them off guard and tackled him to the ground and ran away from them as fast as I could.

By the time they satrated chasing me I was already out of the alley and was now on a road when suddenly a car came out of nowhere and hit me.

I could see the two men retreating back to the alleyway as they didn't wanted to do with me anymore and the driver got out of his car and started panicking and quickly called an ambulance.

My body was filled with pain at the same time I couldn't move my body at all.

All I could think at that moment was not the pain but it was that I wanted everything to end at that moment so that my mom would finally be free of my burden and now that she wouldn't have to sacrifice her body for me.

And I just wished for my dad to make a healthy recovery and my parents could go back to normal and they don't miss me much.

I could hear the ambulance's sirens nd it's blue light flashing over my body and that's all I remember before I woke up in the white room, aware of everything that had happened to me and my family.

This is how the story of a rich selfish bully who manipulated others came to an end.
