Chapter 4: The Chase

...Chapter 4: The Chase...

...Evalyn's POV...

...I was walking home but it's a long walk since the place I was working is 4.5km away from home. It is near to a park called Ayala Triangle Gardens. I go there when I'm taking a break so I did but not because I'm taking a break from work, I'm taking a break from my grief after I lost my mother who had been poisoned by someone so I took a walk in the park till I get exhausted. I saw a bench with a teenage boy sitting so I sit beside him just because it's the nearest bench to me. Before the moment I sit on the bench, I saw the boy looking at me with an expression as if he is taking a glance at me. I looked at him but he is looked away with a blush on a face. When I saw the blush on his face, I sat on the bench with a smile and a feeling I never felt before. I giggled because of that feeling. He heard it from his side so he looked at me again. The moment I saw this, I can't stop but thinking about smiling, looking at his eyes, blushing. I can't think of any feeling other than being in love. I don't know why I would be in love with a teenage boy and someone younger than me but it just happened. The boy saw me smiling, looking at him and his sparkling eyes, and blushing. I noticed that the boy is looking at my eyes, took a bit long glance at me. I feel a connection between us. Some people don't care but most who are worried about the boy is the foreigners that looked like Americans and British people but the boy didn't care and just continued looking at me while I looked at him. So we started talking. It turns out that he is 14 and I'm 21 so we have a 7 years old gap but that didn't matter to us. The boy's name is Valence....

...Ayala Triangle Gardens Dialogue:...

Valence: Uhmm, Hi! M-my name is... Valence. You?

Evalyn: Evalyn. So you were looking at me hmm?

Valence: I-uhh no no, Uh-I didn't. Hehe.

Evalyn: Well, the way you look at me is as if you had a crush on me, is that right?

Valence: WHAT! Uhhh... Well, not exactly, it's just I saw a light in you.

Evalyn: Awww, don't be silly.

Valence: N-no, it's true. It's just I never expected how beautifu- I mean, pretty you are.

E

valyn: Hmmm... Oh wait, I have to go now, it's getting late.

Valence: W-wait!

Evalyn: *running* Good luck on your studies!

...Evalyn's POV going home:...

...I was running home because it's getting late and I don't want to walk home in dangerous night so I went running till I get exhausted so I stopped by to rest a bit in the bus stop when suddenly a heard a walking noise. It's getting louder and louder till I know what direction is the sound. It was to my right and it was a woman. I can't see clearly who that was till she walked pass the light post and I found out that It was Yella with a disgust in her face as if I'm disgusting. I noticed her hands are behind her like she is holding something behind her. So after saw these things from Yella, I suspected that she was holding something that you hurt or kill me based on her facial expressions. Instead of getting worried and scared, I'm getting ready to run from her if she is near enough to me but then, I noticed another thing, her facial expressions changed as if she figured out my plan so I predicted what she is gonna do. She is near enough to me so I ran. As I predicted, she threw a knife at my leg to stop me from running. I dodged it quickly and continued running. She quickly took the knife and chased me. She again threw the knife but not towards me. It went towards the light post near me and the knife handle hit the light post and deflected the knife towards me. I saw that the knife blade is coming right at me so I quickly dodged it. Then again she took the knife quickly. I would think to grab the knife quickly if she threw the knife again. She did threw the knife again but this time by throwing it at it's handle the make the knife bounce towards my legs. The knife almost hit me but I dodged it again. Then I realized something, why didn't she hit my back? It's easy to hit it. I guess she wants me to die slowly. But why? I tried to ask her but it's seems she is too focused on killing me. I was still being chased till I saw a light post that has enough space between the light post and the wall so I went through it and kick her as I went the other side of the light post because I predicted that if I went to the side of the light post that is not between the wall, she would go the other side but the kick I would give her will hit the wall first before it hits Yella. So I went the other side that is between it and the wall so I would freely kick her to the other side without my feet hitting anyone other than Yella. Why would I know this? Well, it's common sense! Of course I would go to the side where it has smaller space so I would kick her to the other side where the space is much large. In fact, I didn't predicted because it's common sense, I think. As she got down to the floor, I saw two things that was dropped from her. The first thing is the knife which I took quickly before she did and the second thing is the thing that shocked me. An injection that has the fluid that poisoned my mother. I was going to hate her but then I told her something before I killed her....

...Evalyn's POV lecturing Yella:...

...You know Yella... I would have hate you for killing my mother... She didn't deserve this... I was trying to work harder in order to cure my mother but... You are a hindrance to me... I just didn't fight back because... I don't know why... Maybe... I... Am... Weak... But then I remembered something... Life... Is cruel... That's one thing my mother told me... Maybe the death of my mother... Is the only thing that... Stops her from suffering from her disease... We don't even know what disease is it because we didn't have enough money to check up... Ever since my father died from that accident... I'm the only one who provides money and food for my family... Just the two of us... Me and my mother... But thanks to you... She stopped suffering... But that doesn't mean... You are forgiven... Murder is a sin... And every sin has a price... The wages of sin is death... So as her daughter... I'm going to get my revenge for my mother... But don't worry... Your death won't be painful... After your death is something you should be afraid... The fact that you told me one day that you don't care about getting to Hell... Well... I hope you prepared... I would have want you to go to Heaven but... It seems you don't regret every actions you committed... Despicable... Bye... Bye... Yella......

...To be continued......
