Nicole POV
I ran out of George's room, I couldn't believe what I saw, three years of our relationship and when I finally came back, he cheated on me, he didn't even wait for me, all he ever wanted from me is sex all through, but I never allowed him.
I can't believe he would do this, I trusted him, I love him and this is how he repaid me? by destroying my life? This is beyond expectation
My heart felt like it has been stabbed multiple times, I wish I didn't see that at all. George how could you do this to me
You brought me joy like no other man ever could at a time I needed it most. You brought out the best in me by simply being you. Your love has lifted me to the greatest heights imaginable.
I am deeply hurt, and my heart will undoubtedly be scarred because of what you did
I don't think I'll ever find a love as true as George's, and I'm not sure I ever want to try.
Haven't I experienced sadness enough!
Firstly my sister is dead, and the only person whom I thought will cheer me up, I just saw him with another lady
"Argh, why?"
"God is this a test from you or suffering"
I yelled on top of my lungs
I kept on crying while working home, I didn't even bother to take a cab home, I just walked in the heavy rain....

Fifteen minutes later...
At least I got home, all I need now is to just relax and forget what happened.
I entered home, but my parents are not around yet, maybe still at the funeral service. I just decide to lay down and rest, I went up to my room, which is Evie's room, we used to sleep in the same room before I had left for high school. I entered and still saw some memories of Evie and the pictures we took together.
If Evie was here now she will say" Nicole, don't be upset, you don't need George, I told you he is not perfect, don't worry, I am always there to hug you tight Nikki"...
But she is not here to hug me tight, she's gone, why is this happening to me?
I cried my heart out and knelt weeping on my bed.
"Why does the universe want to punish me?"
Tears took over me and I lost to it, I tried so hard to control my tears but it was useless, I need someone to comfort me
I cried profusely on my bed, so hard that my bed became soaked, soaked with tears
Raising my head a bit,
something caught my eye, I saw a shining box, under Evie's bed.
What could that be
I used my palm to wipe my tears, then walked towards the bed
I bent down, took the box, and words were written on top of it, it says "Evie's property, don't touch"
Then I realized that Evie always keep her diary and other secret stuff In this box, I have to open it, I know Evie very well, she always writes and put her darkest secrets in this box, thus has to help me
I have to open it, but unfortunately, it was locked
" Damn"
I cursed
I need to find the key, this might be the last memory I will have of Evie.
I searched every nook and cranny in every house
"where could it be," I asked
I need to find it, maybe I should ask my parents, they might know of this.
I went downstairs and saw my parents sitting on the couch, thanks goodness they had arrived.
" Mum, Dad"
I called getting their attention
" Nicole, you are home, you left the service so early? What happened dear?"
mum asked worriedly
I don't need to tell them what happened today with George
" I just needed to clear up some things in my head"
"Ok dear"
Dad said
"What's that in your hands?"
" I just wanted to ask you, I saw this under Evie's bed and I think this can help me find what am looking for, do you have any idea where Evie kept the key of this box," I asked
"That an unusual box, I have seen it before"
"Unfortunately, we don't have the key honey, I didn't know she had a secret box"
mum said
"Me neither"
Dad shrugged
"Okay mum, I searched everywhere in the house, but I couldn't find it"
" Sweetie, if it's not in the house, then there might be some possibility that it's can be in the school"
Dad said
I rose my head up immediately
" Yes Dad you are right, it's gonna be in school"
I said snapping my fingers
"So that means...
" Mum, dad it means that I have to finish my last year in Evie's school"
" I don't know sweetie, I don't want you to suffer the same way Evie did"
Mum said worriedly
"Mum, the reason why Evie was always bullied, is because she is naive and does not know how to defend herself, but I am not a coward like her, I will go to that school and make sure they all pay"
I said with devious eyes
"Nicole, don't take revenge"
Mum said sternly
"We will see about that"
I muttered
"Of course I won't take revenge Mum, I promise"
"Alright"
"Now, can I go to the school?"
I asked curiously waiting for a yes
"Are you sure you want to go honey?"
Dad asked
" Yes dad am sure"
I answered
" In that case, it's your decision, tomorrow morning get ready and pack your loads, you are going to Richmond boarding high school"
Dad said
"Just be careful Nicole"
"Mum, I can take care of myself, I travelled out of the country before remember?'
"I know but in some cases"
"Just let her go"
Dad said
"Fine"
Mum arched and immediately went upstairs
Immediately Dad followed her
After that, my parents went inside to sleep while I was still on the couch
They made my sister suffer, now it their turn, I will make sure I make their lives a living hell, no one will go home scot-free, and good thing it is a boarding school, no one will even think of escaping, that a promise"
My thoughts drifted to what Evie said in the hospital
"I promise to avenge your death, I promise you that Evie"
"And this Jackson stone guy, watch out dude, you are safe, Run Jackson stone Run"
