ACTS OF AGGRESSION

POV- EVANGELINE HOPES

------------------------------

After finishing dinner, we said our goodbyes.

YOU ARE LATE...

I heard the comments from Zeraf. As usual, he wants to pick a fight with me. I refused him, so he called me while I was entering my house.

OH MY... WHEN DID DR. ZERAF TAKE CARE OF ME?

I HAVE ALWAYS TAKEN CARE OF YOU SINCE MY CHILDHOOD. SO DON'T CHANGE THE SUBJECT.

WHAT HAPPENED? WHY ARE YOU SOUNDING PISSED OFF?

DID YOU HAVE DINNER WITH THAT ODIN GUY?

YES, I DID. NOT ONLY HIM, I HAD DINNER WITH MY FRIENDS AND BOSS TOO.

OH...

WHAT'S WITH THAT ANSWER OF YOURS?

IT'S NOTHING, I JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE YOU REACHED SAFELY.

I DID REACH SAFELY. SINCE WHEN DID YOU START ACTING LIKE MY HUSBAND?

CLICK...

He hung up on me. Damn you, Zeraf. I cursed him. While taking a bath, I started thinking about my father's death. Why did he do that? Even if he wanted to die, he should have left a note, but he didn't. What is it? We found the blade he used to cut his veins. But the timing is what makes it suspicious, and there are no inscriptions on his body either. What am I missing? The timing suggests that someone planned it between 12 PM and 3 PM. Damn... I finished my bath. Then I quickly grabbed the case files for the 1977/23 MYLA RAPE CASE. I opened them with excitement and started reading.

The next day, I went to Zeraf's hospital for my check-up. As usual, Zeraf made me wait for him. He purposely scheduled my appointment late. Impatiently, I rushed to his office, only to be shocked by what I saw. Zeraf and Miranda Colin, his cousin, were engaged in a passionate kiss position. I can't see them clearly seems it's like it.They were giggling and looked intimately close. I didn't know what to do. A sudden rush of hatred surged through my mind. I could feel the aggression building up within me towards that woman. I knew she was after him, but I didn't know Zeraf's feelings. I tried to calm down and took a seat. After a few minutes, I saw that woman go into the lift. For some reason, I felt tired and fell asleep.

Again, I heard someone screaming. It was filled with pain. But strangely, I found it melodious.

I TOLD YOU TO STAY AWAY FROM IT.

The smell of blood overwhelmed my senses.

Ange... Ange... I heard Zeraf's alluring voice. I opened my eyes. He looked at me in disbelief. I saw that my hands were covered in blood, and I noticed a wound as well. I had cut my veins. I was lying in the casualty ward of the hospital. Zeraf stood near me, furious.

I didn't understand anything for a moment.

What happened? I asked him

What happened? Excuse me, Ange, can you explain what is going on with you?

What are you talking about, Zeraf? I don't understand.

You don't understand? Are you joking with me?

What do you mean?

People are saying that you took out a pair of scissors and cut your hands in front of them.

What? Did I do that?

Zeraf just stared at me. It was as if he was studying me, trying to find the truth. He was about to say something when we were interrupted by a fellow nurse.

Doctor... It's an emergency. Dr. Miranda is in the ICU. Someone slashed her throat.

What? He was shocked and rushed towards the ICU.

At that moment, unimaginable anger welled up inside me. Zeraf, you were supposed to take care of me. Why are you going after another woman? That's why someone has to pay. Now, I feel like smiling...
