Haunted Lust

Episode Eleven (11) – “Immortal”
It was my dad, he had injected me. That was it. I didn’t see anything anymore.
That injection got me blank. I didn’t know or felt what was happening around me. This wasn’t the first time though.
Anytime I’m angry, my parents finds a way to inject me. Was this the only way to tame me down when I’m angry? Does this happen to any other person or I’m actually alone in this?
I opened my eyes to see my hands and feet tied to my bed and my mother practically packing up my belongings into a bag.
I was so weak this time around that I couldn’t even lift a finger. I checked the clock on the wall and it’s was almost 1 pm. Meaning I had been off for like 5 hours now.
Then I began to cry. I cried for the situation I was in. I cried that I was not with Kobby, I cried that I was been treated like a stranger.
“Mummy” I called her out in a soft voice. That was only when she realized that I was awake.
“Why are you packing my stuff” I asked.
“Honey, you’re not safe here, you must go to your grandma’s place, I promise I will come back for you” she answered.
I could see she was sad as well. She didn’t want to cry but she couldn’t hold it, that her tears started coming from her eyes.
“Mum, don’t cry, can I at least talk to Kobby before we leave” I asked.
Just then my mum stopped packing at the hearing of Kobby’s name. Then she came towards me, where I was tied to my bed.
“My daughter, you need to understand that Kobby is no more and that is why you’re not safe here”
What is she saying, she can’t tell me Kobby is no more. My mum is crazy too. I will add her up to my crazy list.
“Mum, don’t ever say that.” I said “look can I tell you a secret, Kobby always come here to see me and we are in love with each other. I love him and he loves me too”
My mum couldn’t hold it any longer. She was getting frustrated by my words. She didn’t want to hear anymore.
“ Stop stop stop” She yelled. “Kobby is dead. You can’t be seeing him. He is dead”
No no no. She’s getting me angry again, she can’t tell me Kobby is dead. My Kobby can’t die. He is immortal.
I was angry, I began yell at my mum. “Get out, get out” as I tried to free myself for the tied rope.
Fortunately, that of my left hand was loose. I freed my left hand and with it, I got hold of my mother.
With one hand, I strangled her neck. I wanted to teach her lesson for saying my Kobby is dead.
To be continued.
