Chapter 5 He Is Back Again

• ALESSIA'S POV
• He was back again.
• He was back again while I was still struggling to get him out of my fucking mind.
• I left the hospital early because of that incident earlier.
• Maybe whatever happened was because I haven't slept for a long time, due to how hectic my job was.
• I didn't even have the opportunity to cry my eyes out after the betrayal from my ex-fiance and my supposed best friend.
• After the ordeal with the devil, I scurried out of the club with the hope of going home to get some rest.
• My head was banging and my eyes were blurry, but unfortunately, I was called for an emergency surgery.
• I ended up having just an hour of sleep at the worker's lodge.
• This week has been an hectic one and after the incident of not being able to get the devil off my mind, I asked for permission to go home.
• I turned off my phone so I won't be called back for any emergency surgery again.
• Upon getting home, I took a shower and headed towards the kitchen to fix myself something to eat.
• I was still cooking when I noticed something unusual.
• I felt the hair at the back of my neck stand, and couldn't shake off the feeling.
• Stopping what I was doing, I turned around, looking sharply at every nook and cranny of my apartment.
• I searched everywhere, but didn't find anything unusual.
• I exhaled in relief and ate dinner before heading towards my room to get a goodnight rest, hoping I could get everything off my mind.
• Upon getting to my room, I noticed the light was turned off, causing a frown to appear on my face.
• “ Wasn't it on when I came in?” I muttered, walking fully into the room, trying to locate the switch.
• I wasn't with my phone, so it was hard to locate the switch, not when I felt my nerve cracking and the hair at the back of my neck standing, once more, like earlier.
• ‘ What is happening again?’ I muttered, fear creeping into my skin.
• Before I could locate the switch, I was able to come across my pepper spray.
• I grabbed it with both hands, ready to spray everything on the stranger who dared break into my apartment.
• “ Who are you? Come out now!”
• I said, trying so hard to sound courageous, but I knew deep within me that I was melting in fear.
• What if it is a man?
• What if he is trying to rape me?
• What if he was sent by Rachel?
• Different thoughts flew into my mind, but I took a deep breath, steadying my breath, so as to shove away every negative thought.
• “ Come out now!” I raised my voice once more, holding the handle of the pepper spray.
• I knew someone was hiding in a dark corner inside my room, but I couldn't see even a thing.
• “ Here I am, Bunny. Did you miss me?” A deep dark voice came from a dark corner.
• The name Bunny sounded awfully familiar, but I couldn't come in terms with the fact that the person I was thinking about was the same person who broke into my apartment.
• He wouldn't go to such lengths.
• We have no connection, since he didn't know me and I didn't know him either.
• I shook my head, trying to get him out of my head.
• ‘ He isn't the same person.’ My subconscious mind said to me.
• I kept believing that he wasn't the same person, until the light turned on, and the person in the dark corner stepped out.
• A gasp escaped my lips, and that was when it dawned on me that I was doomed.
• He went out of his way to find me and even stalked me.
• “ You….you..you!” My voice failed me, as my eyes widened in shock.
• I took a step back as my waist couldn't hold my weight any longer, so I fell heavily on my butt.
• Was I cursed or something?
• Why was misfortune chasing me?
• I got betrayed less than two days ago, and that same day, I came across the devil, and now, he was clinging onto me, changing my normal life into an abnormal one.
• “ Why do you look so shocked? I bet you weren't expecting to see me.” A dark smirk graced his lips.
• These were the longest words he has ever spoken to me, but I was too shocked to even think about that.
