People harshly whispered around me and I groaned trying not to pay attention to what they were saying but I couldn't, I then tried focusing to hear what they were saying but they were speaking in a strange language.
I opened my eyes and groaned "Where am I?"
"Where else would you be you Harridan! "
" Did you just curse me? Besides that word is more befitting for you since you the old one here " I sliently said
" It obvious she's fine already " She turned and angrily said to someone standing beside her.
My head was aching badly
" Why does my head feel like it was hit by Adonis? And why does my body feel like it was hit by a bus? " I asked my grandmother
" Adonis did hit you "
" But why?! "
" Because you were on the street acting like a lunatic in broad daylight, what is wrong with you? Where are you getting all this rebellious behavior from? "
" Acting crazy is not a rebellious act grandmother, I have my image to protect too" I replied sulkily. I rubbed my forehead massaging it " I don't remember anything, I don't remember doing all what you claimed "
My grandmother rolled her eyes " Of course you wouldn't remember a thing you rebellious child. I have nothing to say to you anymore for some reasons the only man that decided to marry you was involved in an accident and presently in a mental ward. He looks a mess something must have scare the living out of him. Poor boy. Adonis is here I have some important things to attend to. "
That been said she didn't give me a second look and walked out.
Jeremiah went nuts? I chuckled that's surprising, I didn't give a care.
I noticed someone was intently staring at me. I turned and looked at him " What? "
" You feel off " He said
I rolled my eyes " You always say weird things Adonis, you creep me out too. "
He gave a slight frown as if not understanding me then his expression changed in seconds to an apologetic one " I didn't mean to scare the Miss, I'm sorry "
" What are you apologizing for? " I angrily asked because he made me feel guilty for indirectly calling him a weirdo and a creep.
Minutes later he was still standing in the same spot with his head slightly bowed
" Do you still have anything to say? "
" Not exactly, but Mrs Smith instructed, commanded me to watch over you like a hawk and not let you out of my sight even if you have to go the bathroom? "
I looked at him dumbfounded " So you gonna watch me while I do what girls do in the bathroom? "
He turned red and nervous in seconds " Nnnn.. no I just repeated what I was told. "
" See why I said you creep me out? " I asked and he diligently apologized and I shook my head.
" Can I ask a question? " He asked
" Are you trying to initiate conversation? "
" No, I sincerely do have a question? "
" Go ahead, ask away "
He was quiet for a few seconds before saying " I didn't mention this to Mrs Smith because I didn't want her to worry and think about unnecessary things but you disappeared for a while "
" What do you mean I disappeared for awhile? " I asked confused
He frowned and answered " I was initially following you when you left the office and when you were with the fortune teller but then you took a corner which lead to a dead end and you were nowhere in sight "
I stared at him for seconds and angrily muttered " What do you mean disappeared? And what fortune teller. I only remember walking down the street and having this weird feeling like I was going crazy before you knocked me out cold in public! "
" But that's not how it seems, you...."
" Enough now, I have had enough with your weird talks please leave I wanna sleep.
You can stay outside the door if you like, besides I'm in no position to start acting rebellious "
I turned my back to him facing the wall.
He stood there staring at me before nodding his head and silently exiting the door.
I frowned, deep down I knew something was amiss like I was repeatedly losing my memory, but the thought that I was sick or mentally unstable made me afraid and I denied. I sighed, can't I have a normal life?
Within seconds I was already drifting off to sleep and a figure suddenly materialized in my room. He slowly moved close to my bed and silently whispered "Stupid" He stared at me for a long time before giving a evil smirk.
I jolted awake, why did my dream feel so real. I looked around just to be sure no one was in here.
Adonis is at the door and no one can enter here without having to go through the door first. I reassured myself and went back to sleep choosing to live in ignorance, but for how long?
