It's been two years since he has gone to study abroad.

I still remember the day I came to live in this house after my parent's death.

I still remember the day when he suddenly came into my room. 

I was looking at him with shocked eyes because of his actions. He locked the door and started coming in my direction. I knew that I was in danger but I can't move my body.

Bloody hell, my body was held by the cold gaze of his blue sea-colored eyes. 

With long steps, he was coming towards me, and in a flash of seconds, he was in front of me. He grabbed my hair making me look into his eyes, my eyes were close afraid of meeting his cold star but the next word from his mouth made my eyes short open.

"Who was that man Jane with whom you were laughing and talking answer me. Who was he," he shouted in anger. I took in his appearance his jaw was clenched and his eyes were burning in anger.  

H-e-he saw me with him. 

I knew I was in danger. Now, what should I do was the big questions for me. 

Warm tears filled my eyes ready to slip out from the corner of my eyes by remembering that day. The memor memory of that day still you heard it right.

Against His Will

I slowly turned, not looking at his eyes. My head facing the floor. 


"lookup," he said in his angry voice. I didn’t dare to look up because of the fear of him killing me. 


“I don't like to repeat myself,” he said while grinding his teeth. 


Then l slowly lifted my head and faced him. I was still biting my lower lip. I kept my gaze low, not daring to look in his eyes. 


 "Look into my eyes when you're facing me,” he said, his voice was so cold piercing right through my soul which made me immediately look straight in his eyes. 


What are you thinking Jane? Complimenting your murderer's eyes. I immediately remove that thought from my brain. 


He was staring at me trying to read my emotions. 


"Are you trying to avoid me?" he asked me in a demanding voice. I bite my lip harder. 


He… he...knows that I am avoiding him. 


“What... me... No… No. Why would I avoid you?” l answer him while laughing nervously.
