An Inevitable Fate?

She quickly rose to her feet and dashed out of the room. When she reached the stairs, she slowed down cautiously. Even after reaching the living hall, she couldn't find any living thing. She tried opening the main door but failed.

Ah! Why was it locked?

Looking through the windows, all she could see was greenery. There weren't many houses, to begin with. So, it wasn't any neighborhood.

She didn't know this place at all.

Just what was this place? Did she brake into someone's house while she was drunk? Or... she got kidnapped?

Her eyes went wide thinking about the kidnapping. Just in time, a roar of the engine came from outside. Someone was here!

F*ck! F*ck! F*ck!

She ran up, climbing two stairs at a time and entered the previous bedroom. She was perspiring all over her body.

God, she never knew she could run so fast.

She hastily closed the door behind and stood near the bed.

On hearing the sound of the lock being opened and followed by the steady footsteps, she got terrified!

Rachel needed to leave this place as soon as possible. But how?

While thinking her eyes landed on the long glass window. She opened the window and saw a small balcony. Something flashed in her mind and grinned like an idiot. This was the only way out...

With determination, she climbed down the balcony. She held on to some pipe, attached to the wall.

When she almost reached the ground, she lost her footing and landed on her b.u.t.t. Ouch, that hurts!

"AHH,"

She cried out as she fell. Though it was just a one-storied building, it hurts when they fall, okay? Especially if they fall on their butt!

She was sprawled on the ground, like an amoeba. She wanted to get up and leave, but she just couldn't move. Sigh!

Inside the kitchen, Aaron was arranging breakfast he had brought. When he heard Rachel's loud cry, his hands shook violently. With fear, he ran and dashed into the room.

But it was empty. Shit! He had a bad feeling about it.

"Rach?"

No one answered. He went and searched inside the bathroom. But, she wasn't there as well.

Just as he was about to leave the room, he caught sight of the opened windows.

As he went there, he saw her lying motionless on the ground. Seeing that his heart almost came out of his mouth.

He cursed inwardly and ran down the stairs, went to the lawn.

"Rach!" He shook her as he called. She was drenched in sweat.

Actually, before, Rachel had closed her eyes momentarily, she wasn't unconscious.

But when she heard a familiar voice, she started sweating all over again. Hence, she refused to open her eyes.

Seeing her not moving, Aaron took her in his arms and strode inside the building. He then slowly placed her on the couch. Without wasting a second, he went to the kitchen to get some water for her.

Rachel slowly opened her eyes.

Damn it! What's wrong with this guy? What was he doing by taking her inside? Should he not take her to the hospital? She had planned this, so she could escape from the hospital. Now, what should she do?

Sensing the footsteps getting closer, she shut her eyes tight again. She would pretend until the end! Hmph.

Aaron took some water and sprinkled it onto her face.

"Rach, wake up! Please, wake up," He almost went mad, seeing her not moving at all.

On the other hand, Rachel was praising herself.

'Awe, Rachel, why didn't you go to the entertainment industry? You could have won the National award with your acting skills. Aye, what a waste to the industry. They lost an amazing actress!'

She smirked.

This slight smirk didn't leave Aaron's sight. He was speechless!

Did he just got played by her? Then, he should... play along!

Rachel's thoughts were stopped when a scheming guy's hand closed her nose. Oh! shit, what now? Soon she ran out of breath and was about to open her mouth to breathe, but suddenly, something soft touched her lips.

Chuck that! Now, what was this slippery thing c.a.r.e.s.sing her lips?

She understood. God damn it! It's his lips? More precisely.... his tongue?

Finally, she opened her. Seeing the close-up version of Aaron, she felt like puking. With all her might she pushed him forcefully.

So forcefully that, he staggered a few steps and fell onto the floor. Wow!

Rachel wiped her lips from the back of her hand, roughly. She glared at him with her burning eyes.
