Chapter 1 - Bitter taste of revenge

pt-1(Female lead's point of view)

|Starter|

 I stood there with a gun pointed at me…..

By the hands of.....WHO?

By the hands of the man I have loved for years! 

What did I do?!

Something this disgusting?.....so, he would have to kill me?

 

 ***

 

  3 years ago

"Hi!" I say while awkwardly giggling sitting in front of my date, "This must be Henry. Hi I'm Bella your blind date." 

This is it. He is the one! Looks so polite, handsome, fit, and a nerd with glasses. AHHHHHHHH that's all I wanted. 

"Ummm.... Hi! yeah I'm Henry....and your my date." He says while pulling a chair for me to sit, "I must say you look beautiful mam~." 

While I foolishly blush at his compliment, "Tha....thanks." Wait, did I just stutter!?

oh myyyyyy so foolish so weird. I must have looked soooooooooooooo much like a fool.

"Umm...and no need to call me 'mam' it's just Bella"[Bella]

"oh sure only if you wish~. I just can't help but call a lady like you mam. "[henry]

OMG! did he call me a lady?

"and I can't help but point out that this lady is sooo unlady like in real"[bella]

He actually chuckled, and said, "you're a unique one miss"

 

 *****

After a few mounts of talking and hanging out together .....we started liking each other more and more.....

then one day he asked me to be him girlfriend! That was sooo wonderful that I almost cried.

 

 1 year letter

 

1 year passed like that we were happy we spend our time together happily with each other. Even little things were fun.

 

But for some reason my dad didn't like him much......

 ******

Me and my dad were talking when he out of the blue told me,

"Bella. Honey I know that you love that boy. But honey please.... listen to this old man of yours and try staying alert when he is around."[dad]

sighs "Dad.....I get it that your worried. And about Henry.........he is a nice guy."[Bella]

"he takes care of me, loves me even when I mess up! he isn't like other guys"[Bella]

Dad just put a hand on my shoulder,

"Just remember what I said okay and don't say I didn't warn you."[dad]

"I would"[Bella]

 ********

 

That night I talk to Henry,

"But babe! I you promised...."[Henry]

Oh. I can already feel his puppy eyes looking at me,

"I told you na.... love we can go on that movie date later. I need to go to that place...my best friend invited me"[Bella]

"Promise?......."

His voice stays silent for some time.... more than its supposed to be. Even I can feel it through his text.... but I laugh it off and think it was just his acting like a baby with his girlfriend, guys do that right......RIGHT?!

 

 ******

After that day he became more....cold, distancing himself from me. He looked guilty and confused for some reason, a reason he won't share to me. It felt like I was losing him to some kind of.... guilt? He looked at me with those confused eyes...his gaze breaking my heart bit by bit.

He avoids looking into my eyes he use to call 'beautiful as havens'........

He pulls away the second we are too close or happy....

He became cold and distant......

I cried alone to myself for days thinking he hated me..I did something..But NO I didn't.

 *******

After mounts like that I finally snapped, "Henry........Do you even love me?"[Bella]

His eyes widen in shock but not with heart break with pure fear like some kind of plan gone wrong . Finally after staying silent for a long time he said,

"WHY WOULD YOU SAY THAT!?"[bella]

That line came sharper than expected , my eyes widen in shock . Tears started falling like pearls from my eyes .

He looked like he wanted to and almost hugged  me..............but held himself back. By doing what? scrolling.

Tears kept falling and I started punching him.....not enough to hurt but enough to vent my frustration, "Why are you acting like you don't care?!"[bella]

The suddenly he snapped, "It's because I lo..."[henry]

He stopped mid-sentence, "JUST, whatever. Bella I can't explain"[henry]

Then he thought for some time....."Bella, I'm busy and tired I'm sorr-"[henry]

He cuts himself of and walks away leaving me standing there

Alone.....

Hurt....

Maybe dad was right...NO it can't be

Maybe Henry is going through something

Or I'm just overthinking

 ***********

After that day we slowly started to fix things and trying to forget whatever happened and slowly moved on and loved each other like before.

Dad's still overthinking stuff but........meh he is getting old . Normal for him to worry cause I'm his only family. Mom died while giving birth to me. Dad said she was beautiful had blue eyes that looked like you can dive right in but never stop getting deeper.

He loved her a lot.

 ****

A month passes after that fight we are okay now.

One day I was at his house, "Babe, you know my best friend?"[bella]

"oh yeah. The one who always steals my girl from me?"[henry]

I laugh hearing what he asked, "Babe she is ju-"[bella]

before I can finish he pressed a light kiss on my lips.....and I melted in his lips as he started going deeper

BUT

wait, why does he taste the same way as the poison my dad gave me to train my body to become immune to poison?

But also so sweet 

He tastes like poison mixed with sweetness

Then he broke the kiss

his ears were red by now

 

wait a minute, OMG THAT WAS MY FIRST KISS!?

was it weird for him?

what did I dooo

 

my face started turning bright red

 

he saw my face but didn't do anything his ears were turning red

 

he stood up and went to the washroom 

 

I was too flushed and embarrass to stay in his bed in his house so I ran away

 

  that night at home

as soon as I went home I called my best friend,

"HEILY YOUR NOT GONNA BELIVE WHAT HAPPENED AT HENRYS PLACE TODAY"[bella]

 

"WHAT HAPENEND? TELL"[heily]

"did he give you something?"[heily]

"no"[bella]

"DID YALL KISS"[HEILY]

"yeah"[bella]

 

I started blushing and told her how it was 

it was so good

 it was like sweet

BUT

she was a little shocked by the "poison mixed with sweetness" part

"Bella are you sure it wasn't actual poison"[heily]

"yeah, why would my lover poison me?"[bella]

"mhm, you got a point there"[heily]

AT THE SAME TIME THE KISS WAS....UGH

I Can't FORGET HOW SOFT HER LIPS WERE

HOW SHE TASTED

HOW DAMN CUTE THAT WOMEN LOOKED 

 

 

 

 ****

After that day...

I was really confused

I didn't really know what to do 

 

am I exposed?

did she understand that I tried to kill her?

is my carefully crafted plan is going to be ruined?

 

I handled myself before I had a crash out

then texted her, 

 

Henry: My Lady...your busy today

Henry: want to go grab a coffee somewhere near

Bella: yeah I would love to, 

Bella: where are we going?

Bella: what time?

Henry: I will come to pick up my lady then, don't worry about timing or place that's my job

Bella: thanks babee

Henry: just dress up normally nothing fancy

Bella: roger

 

 ******

after that at noon I got ready and went to pick her up

she seemed pretty normal and happy in texts 

but I need to see that women 

in front of me

or I can't be sure if I got caught or not

 

  At the cafe

 

everything seemed fine 

I pulled a chair for her to sit in before I did myself

ordered her favorite tea

 

but OH GOD LOOKING AT THIS WOMEN

I CAN NOT BRING MYSELF TO TALK DERECTLY

MY VOICE ISN'T WORKING THE WAY I WANT IT TO

MY VOICE IS ALL SHAKY 

MY HANDS ARE ALL SHAKY

IM NERVOUS

MY BRAIN MAKES ME REMEMBER HOW SOFT THOSE LIPS WERE

HOW SHE WAS BLUSHING

THE WORST PART IS

IT IS ALL BECAUSE OF THE WOMEN SITTING INFRONT OF ME

 

DUDE I SHOULDN'T HAVE WASTED MY DAMN ASS FIRST KISS ON HER 

 

"Henry...."[bella]

I suddenly came out of my inner mind thoughts 

"wai- wha- oh sorry I was thinking of something....you need something?"[henry]

"noohhh, you seemed dazed that's all"[bella]

"do you want to say anything"[bella]

 

"actually...."[henry]

"yeah, I did want to tell you something"[henry]

"about the other day........."[henry]

"I'm really really sorry for so randomly kissing you"[henry]

"I shouldn't have done that"[henry]

ugh I can't believe I'm having to beg someone for forgiveness moreover my enemy

 

she looks at me

holds my face a kiss's me

DAMN THAT BOLD WOMEN

then pulls away

"you shouldn't feel sorry"

"but I just made it  fair"

 

I looked at her shocked by what she just did 

 

 after getting back from my shocked state

"so..........there's this ball being held"[henry]

"my uncle will be the host "[henry]

I hold her hands 

"he is a really special person to me"[henry]

"he took care of me from childhood gave me everything"[henry]

"filled up the void my parents didn't get to fill with their presence"[henry]

"I want you to meet him"[henry]

 

she looks into my eyes 

with those sparkles

and hope of meeting my uncle

"Henry... I would love to!"

she exclaims

 

 

 

pt-3(female lead pov)

I was super EXCITED and happy to finally get a chance to meet his family

I never meet his family in our 3 years of dating

apparently his parents died when he was 15

and he had no siblings 

 

he doesn't trust easily

has or had trust issues over me too

but I can fix him

I want to see him happy

even if it means I will have to leave him

 

  that night 

That night I was telling my best friend Heily about the ball,

"so HE FINALLY INVITED YOU TO A FAMILY EVENT?"[haily]

"congratulations girlll"[heily]

"I'm like super exited"[bella]

 

''but I don't know what to wear to the ball"[bella]

"should I wear the blue gown or what"[bella]

 

then haily looks at the options for a little while and pics up a whine red bodycon dress

 

"Wine red suits your black hair and pale skin"[haily]

"and the bodycon dress makes your curves look better"[haily]

 

"thanks girl it actually looks perfect"[bella]

 

 

 

 

Pt-4(male lead pov)

I went to pick up my "girlfriend"

whom I dated for 3 years by now

Three years... I had wasted three years... on a woman 

whom I wanted to kill

I wanted revenge by...

killing her

shooting her

poisoning her

BUT

now I somehow 

it's.... hard

for me to think I will kill that women

I got too emotionally invested

today,

I'm going to end all the sufferings

her dad died from a heart attack already

apparently it was from stress

everyone thought it was from work load

but I know what actually happened 

 

that wicked man got stressed after understanding that I came for revenge

and couldn't bring himself to tell his "princess" his pretty little sins

 

so he died

I missed my shoot on killing him by my hands

well his PRINCESS is going to pay for her father's deeds today

 The day of the ball

The day of the ball comes...

I'm ready with my formal suit and boots

and also...

my gut.

 

after getting ready 

I go to Bella's house

to pick her up of course 

  at her house

"Is my lady ready yet?"[henry]

"or...."[henry]

"should I sit and admire her a bit more before going"[henry]

 

she blushes a little 

looks cute

 SH*T

I CAN'T ALLOW MYSELF TO think LIKE THAT

 

my gaze went to her wine red dress

that dress was hugging all her curves

fits just right

enough to make her look glamorous

 

her eyes

lips

On 2nd thought I should shut my thoughts 

 

"No need to wait na"[bella]

"I'm all ready to go"[bella]

 

  at the ball

I felt.... nervous

I felt like everyone had their eyes on either me or Bella

specially my uncle

 

well fair enough,

he was the one who 

helped

me plan the revenge

train

lose weight

look like someone who girls would fond 

but bella was a hard pull

hard to play with

but all play times will be over for good

I will finally 

be free

from all that stress

sadness

anger 

everything

 ****

"Henry..."[bella]

"is it me...."[bella]

"or is everyone looking at us weird"[bella]

 I look around us

everyone was looking at us

like they want to do something

they all looked sus

 

but I couldn't let myself get carried away

 

I took her hand and pulled her into a different room 

 

she gasped from the sudden move

"what's going on?"[bella]

"don't pull my hand like that!"[bella]

"IT HURTS!"[bella]

 

I keep ignoring her pleas and walking

then I go inside an empty room

lock the door

and shove her

back

hard

hard enough to make a sound 

hard enough for that sound to hurt myself

I felt shocked 

but it's how its planed

even with my hands shaky I got angry and 

pulled out my gun

pointed it at her

my hands her shacking 

oh no

I can't move

I feel weak

her eyes

those eyes

look shattered 

 

"YOU WOMAN" I shouted

"JUST BECAUSE OF YOUR FATHER" my voice getting louder and louder every second

"I LOST MY FAMILY" a tear fell

"MY DAD, MY MOM"oh SH*T I can't cry now

"And now I will finally take revenge"[henry]

"I will kill you"[henry]

I point the gun at her my hands close to the trigger

but then

it happens 

I give up

my knees let go

I start shedding ugly tears

"why did my enemy have to be so caring and sweet"

"why did I fall for you"

"wh-"

then I felt it

something loud 

oh yes

it's like a gunshot sound

ouch!

my stomach

oh hell is it blood?

why is everything so blurry

why is Bella crying and calling for help

then everything goes black 

 To be continued
