Curling into the duvet I pulled the cushion close to my chest as my heart was beating at high speed.
I squeezed my eyes and hugged myself as my head was aching like a nail being hammered in it.
With a mind full of many questions and fears,I wished that it was not true.
Praying to God I slowly pulled my head out of the duvet and grabbed my phone from the side cupboard.
"It should not be there,"I prayed many times and unlocked the phone.
With trembling fingers I slowly touched on the message icon.
And what I saw made me even tensed again.
How come HE got my new number?
I changed my number a couple of days back but still he knew it.
I have no idea how.
Looking at the message which read
"I know where you are Anna baby,very soon you are gonna be in my arms,"
I read the message over and over again which only caused my headache to increase.
Burying my head in my hands I pulled my hair out of its roots due to the fear as well as the pain behind my head.
And as usual I began to sweat.
I could hear my heart beat rise in fear. Is HE stalking me..........
All my thoughts were stopped when I heard a knock.
The phone dropped down without my consciousness as I jumped over for the sudden knock.
"Anna,"Amy called out.
Getting off the floor I immediately rubbed my face with the back of my palm.
Taking a deep breath I walked towards the door and opened the door with a wide smile.
"Yeah,"I asked as I fake a yawn.
"Today is the last day that we are here.Dad's vacation is over.we are getting ready to go to the town so wash up quickly and get dressed."
"Uhhhh,"I placed my palm at the back of my head when I felt a strike of pain.Squeezing my eyes trying not to let my eyes fill up I smiled and faced Amy who instantly held me and asked me many times whether I was feeling okay.
"I feel a little tired. May I stay back,"I asked, holding her hand.
"I'm fine. Just want some rest,"
"Alright, Then I will be st....,"
"You go,"I ordered before she could complete her sentence."I told you right that I am fine.And I can stay alone I'm not a kid.,"crossing my hands over my chest I continued"you go. "I ordered.
"Please,"I begged with my puppy eyes which she always fell into before she could speak.
I really was annoyed at myself for ruining others happiness and especially Amy's.
Biding her goodbye I walked into the washroom to freshen up...
Trying my best to forget about the text but I couldn't as it was intimidating .
After changing into a sweater and pants I strolled out of the room to the kitchen.
Wandering around the silent house which is huge where there is no one,my stupid mind began to make ip the most possible situation too take place.
The main question which ran in my head was what if HE is here..
Entering the kitchen ignoring some sound of kuffles I heated the kettle.
How come he got my number
He is watching over me
But how
How does he know all
Is he here in the house or out
All my thoughts were interrupted when I felt a burning sensation on my palm.
I hissed in pain as it hurts so badly
And stupid me realised that my palm was on the jug till it burnt which made my skin red.
Immediately I switched off the switch from my left hand and grabbed the jug from the right...
I screamed as I felt the stinging pain,I dropped the jug on the floor and some droplets of the hot water
splashed on my feet which made me to jump back....
My eyes widened in horror when I felt that I hit on to a hard chest not a wall.....
He held me by my arms and turned me around.
I didn't know why but his touch made me feel all better..
His presence made me feel safe where the thought of me being stalked did not disturb me.
"You alright,"he asked softly as he tried to get my palm.
Instantly I hid my palm. Behind my back and faced him.
Yes obviously I looked up at him as he is tall.
"Yess,"I answered with a wide smile while I took a step back.
Stepping forward he tried to pull my hand but I jumped back and smiled at him nervously.
I didn't know why I was hiding it from him but I just didn't want to show him.
Alright
I was a little embarrassed by my carelessness and I didn't want him to hint at it.
"But you don't look alright Anna,"he told as he came forward which made me to step back immediately and my back hit on the refrigerator.
"I told I'm alright okay....,"I yelled at him. It didn't change any of his expression on his face.
Moving more closer he held my right hand which I was keeping behind my back.
"Jackkkiee,"I screeched but stopped as I saw his stare.
Oh my God he looks creepy.
I tried to wiggle away as he caged me on the refrigerator.
"Stop,"
I paused as his cold voice hit my ears.
Is he serious?
I haven't seen this part of him before.
OK once I did but he looks so scary.
"It's swollen,"he said when he looked at my palm.
"Yeah...I know its swollen..I've learnt the word swollen and you have no need of.....,"I looked up at him
and paused as I didn't want to continue because his glare told me to shut my stupid mouth.
"Why are you hiding it away from me..,"he stepped closer where we didn't have any distance within us.
To be honest this closeness made me feel nervous and he would smash on me if he kept another step forward.
"Are you trying to avoid me,"he asked as he wound his left hand around my waist and pulled me to his chest where his other hand was still around my right wrist.
"No,"I whispered as I looked down.
"Look at me,"he ordered which made me look up at him immediately.
What the hell is wrong with you Anna...
Why are you listening to him....
Who is he to order you.....
Alright you just did it now look away
Look away
My inner conscious spoke but before I could respond,
His lips carved into a slight smile as he brought his head downwards and placed his lips on my forehead.
"Do you know how you make me feel,"he whispered as his lips brushed over my skin.
And my eyes closed as he kissed my forehead gently.
