Chatper 8:In a State of Shock

This chapter is dedicated to A_Fantasy_reality.

Book me: How to live.

Maya and Jose after meeting at a mental health support group find out exactly what is to live but can they learn how to live through death.

Oh, God! Please help me.

I silently prayed, may all this be a bad dream.

"You won't get anything from me", The man spat.

"Really?", Alex asked.

It was pretty dark but I could make out what was happening.

Alex bent down and looked the man in the eye and

Oh my God!

He shot him in the leg.

He screamed. I let out a gasp. I quickly covered my mouth. Thankfully no one heard.

Wouldn't people around hear this?

"Scream all you want because no one will come here to help you cause our men are the ones who live nearby. So you will not be spared today", Alex said in a scary tone.

I was shocked!

I couldn't move from my hiding spot.

I just wanted to wake up from this bad dream.

I wanted to just wake up.

Unknowingly a tear escaped my eyes and rolled down my cheek.

I touched it. The tear came not because I was scared but because I didn't know who was the guy who looked like my brother was.

I thought I knew him.

Of course, he annoys me, he irritates me and I always say I hate him.

But... At the end of the day, he is my brother who used to be there for me when I most needed him.

Even though he never says it, his actions prove it.

But the person I am looking at right now was a guy who was torturing someone for a reason unknown to me. I really wanted to know why..... Why was he doing this?

Should I go up to him?

Would that be a foolish thing to do?

"You know Alex's temper, so why are you testing him huh? Just tell it and die peacefully or...", The guys with Alex spoke smiling at him.

Alex shot him in the stomach.

"Next will be your heart so if you don't want to die now then speak up", Alex growled.

The man's screams filled the air.

How can no one hear it? Where are the cops?

I wanted him to stop this but I can't move, out of shock and fear.

I shouldn't have followed him in the first place. I should have just ignored it and slept peacefully in my bed.

Then why did I come here?

Now, what will happen? Will he do that to me if he finds out I saw all of this? I don't know who he is now maybe he will do it.

The guy Alex shot painfully took something out of his pocket and gave it to Alex.

Alec patted him on the shoulder and said

"You made the right choice. Rest in peace"

With that, he shot the guy in the chest. The guy fell down.

I have never in my life witnessed something so horrific nor did I wish to. And that to my brother doing this.

I wanted to scream but no voice came. It was like someone was clutching my neck. It was getting hard to breath.

I was gasping for air.

I heard the guy with Alex say to the men that came with him to take the body and dispose of it.

They will be coming this way. They will see me. I should run away from here.

But my legs were numb. Fear took over my body and I couldn't move.

I felt like I was dying.

I wish I could just be invincible.

But that is not possible.

Suddenly I felt something cold on the back of my head.

I was afraid to turn and look who it was. I was scared to death.

"Who are you", I heard him ask. "Speak out or I will shoot you".

Maybe killing me would have been great cause I couldn't handle all this. I felt like Falling to the ground.

He grabbed me and pulled me to my feet. I didn't resist. It was like I lost control over my body.

I heard him shout.

"We have a witness here".

I looked at them but Alex and the other guy didn't even turn to look at me. I heard the guy say.

"Finish him off".

Hearing this made me even more scared.

Do they just kill people like..like it was nothing?

"Actually it's a she", The man chuckled.

The guy turned to look at me. The first thing I saw clearly were the emerald green eyes that shined in the dark.

He just stared at me.... shocked?

There was deadly silence.

Alex turned his head maybe to know why the guy was not telling them to kill me.

Alex looked at me.

He also looked shocked and he said something that I couldn't understand.

They both ran towards me. Alex grabbed me from the man and cursed not knowing what to say.

What will he say anyway? I just saw who he really was.

I saw the emerald green eyes clearly this time. I looked at his face. It was clear this time.

I thought I couldn't be more shocked than I was... But I was wrong?

It was James.

I get it now. That's why he asked me if I saw something. The reason he was at the Park was not that he was bored but because he was there with Alex.

Nobody spoke for a few minutes.

The air was filled with tension and it was killing me. I was scared. In my entire life, I wasn't scared like this.

I wanted to look at Alex in the eye but he avoided even looking at me. The same was the action of James.

Are they going to kill me?

After being in a state of shock for a long time. I got my control back. I couldn't handle this tension. I broke the tension.

"I am a witness so why aren't you killing me cause it was what I heard you say earlier without even looking at me", I asked weakly instead of in a questioning way.

"We will kill you now".

***
Do you think will kill Isabella?

Did things just become complicated?

What will happen now?
