The Betrayal (3)

Edward's words kept playing on her head, the immerse hatred that he had for made her head ache as well as her heart, her eyes were red, painful and swollen, it made it unable for her to see the truck ahead of her and,

 "*CRASH* *BOOM* *SIREN*," Alexa's car had salmasualted twice in the air and then crashed upside down, Alexa managed to struggled out of the car with blood covering her face there were glass pieces pierced on her skin and her left knee was hurting so bad it felt like it was broken, Alexa groaned loudly and painfully she dragged herself close to her one car door and sat beside it, she then held her hurting knee close to her chest it was really broken and had shifted a little away from its original position Alexa cried out in pain as she looked at her knee, suddenly footsteps were heard, Alexa's joy knew no bound as she called out to the unknown person that was approaching, 

 'Could that be the driver? How come doesn't so hurt, like someone who just had an accident? Alexa, get it together all that matters is that you find someone to take you to the hospital, so you don't have to die here from infection, from all this glasses that has entered my skin, I doubt that without immediate help I may die here,' Alexa thought and then the steps be. Ame louder, followed by a phone ringing,

 "Help! Please I am right here, help me, hey anyone there, help!" she called out in pain, then the person's voice rang,

 "Yeah, yeah it's done," the unknown person's voice rang, it didn't look like he was talking to her, he had picked the phone call, Alexa drew close to where the voice came from, she had a bad feeling about this certain person and tried to listen to his conversation to clearher doubt,

 "Yes, it was brutal, yeah, but it isn't serious, it was a just few scratches, along with a cut on my head and my arms, but I think it's for the best, it would make it look really like an accident, no, I don't think she survived it, of course I didn't leave any trace that would make people know that it was an intentional accident, well… I plan on pretending to be a drunk driver, who lost control over his truck, yeah, I will double check and even if she is lucky to be alive I am with my gun and I will gladly use it, I will be back maybe by tomorrow after I'm done dealing with the police, see you later love, why can't I call you that, have you forgotten your promise, yeah, bye," the man ended the call and then kept the phone inside his pocket and looked around, he was about to leave cause he was very sure that there was no way that anyone could survive the accident, then he heard some movement nearby along with a soft cry, he quickly brought out his phone from his pocket and on the torchlight, after which he also brought out his gun from the back of his pants, he walked quietly but slowly towards where the noise came from and when he finally got there, he made a sharp turn to surprise the person that was hiding, but he found no one there only a pool of blood, he looked around and then sighed, before he eventually brought out a cigarette and lighter out from his pocket and lit up the cigarette, he blew in and out of the smoke unconcern of his surroundings. Alexa managed to crawl to the other side of the car, she felt that the voice of the unknown man was too familiar to take lightly, as she tried to remember how she knew the man; she cautiously but painfully left her previous position, and all she knew was that the unknown man was sent by someone to get rid of her, she hadn't seen the man's face so she couldn't jump to conclusion although her mind kept telling her that it was Ella. Alexa had almost made up her mind that it was Ella, when the man started humming to a song, and then it dawn to her, this particular man was Smith, her other best friend, Cassandra's Personal Assistant, he was always on beck and call ready to do anything, he had asked Cassandra to be her his girlfriend, but she rejected, telling him that the only way she would be his girlfriend was if he had impressed her enough for her to fall in love with him and for the past two years he was her personal assistant, running errands for her, it wasn't that he was not rich or handsome enough to make other girls fall for him but he had falling deeply in love with Cassandra and was not ready to let go. Smith was a drug baron and a highly respected mafia, but love brought him down to a simple and neglected PA of a girl,

 ' So if Smith succeeds in killing me, Cassandra will finally accept him and they may get married immediately, but why does Cassandra wants to kill me, we were close right from childhood,' Alexa thought and then tears almost fell from her eyes

 'what am I saying, SIGH* if Ella and Edward could betray me, why wouldn't Cassandra, but I have done nothing to offend her, so why all this?' Alexa asked herself and then she heard Smith's footsteps again, she held her breath, until the steps vanished and she breathed a sigh of relief, she raised her body upward a bit and peeped from behind the car, planning to double check if Smith left, she turned

 " Ah!" Alexa screamed and then fell back to the ground she was face to face with Smith, who was smirking wickedly, he had climbed on top of the car very quietly that Alexa didn't notice. Alexa began to move backward as she tried to get away from Smith, but her broken knee was not helping instead she hurt herself in the process, by crawling on broken pieces of glass, seeing running was not helping at all, Alexa picked up: glass, woods and stone throwing them all Smith but he avoided them easily and walked towards her after he had jumped down from the top the car, he pulled out his gun again and approached Alexa slowly but steadily, Alexa didn't give up and continued throwing things at Smith and then she picked a big stick and threw it at him but this time smith didn't dodge it, but rather caught it and snapped it in two, in a way telling her that his patience had ran out, Alexa fidgeted and stopped throwing stuffs, and spoke to Smith in a soft but stern voice, she tried so much to hide her fear, but who wouldn't be afraid n this situation,

 "Smith... What the hell are you doing? Does Cassandra knows what you are up to? Does she knows that you are planning on killing her best friend?" she asked,

"Yes and it was only in your head that you guys were really best friend," Smith said wearily and paused looking at Alexa with pity, he had a menacing and killing look on his face, "To tell you the truth any time I see you I always feel sorry for you," Smith added

"Why? I'm the one who always feel sorry for you whenever I see, a slave because of love," Alexa said and spat blood on Smith's handsome face, he only chuckled and then cleaned it, he then looked coldly at Alexa, he lifted his gun and began trailing his fingers on it, he exuded the charm of a bloodthirsty mafia, as he walked closer to Alexa , who was stuck and couldn't move anymore, her floral gown which had torn had gotten stuck between some tree root and she tried to loosen it but to no avail,

"I guess you are really dumb as they say or even dumber, cause if you weren't, you would realize that both of us are the same, I mean almost the same cause I wasn't fooled and was told straight forward, unlike you who was fooled, used and made to waste, how many years… oh right, 8 years of your life, not that you would have made good use of it if you weren't fooled, but you wasted it on someone who saw you as a piece of shit and hated you," Smith said as he got to where Alexa was and squatted to her level, before continuing what he was saying he opened his mouth to talk but was interrupted by Alexa,

"please, I have heard more hurtful was than I could handle can you please just stop talking, I was not dumb I was just in love, I was blindly in love and didn't notice that it was a one-sided love, I didn't notice the grooming hatred and the lying teeth, I was just in love," Alexa said a her tears threatened to fall, but she held it.
