Please Love Me, Mr. George

“My death could be the only way to stop you from pestering, right?” I said while looking at the flickering streetlight in distance. Something pessimistic started to crawl on my heart.

He let out a spooky smile, “I won’t let it happen. I can’t live for the rest of my life without you.”

I remained silent.

I knew fear didn’t work. My life still needed to go on.

“Just leave Dennis! We can live a happy life together just like when we were kids. Dennis doesn’t deserve your love!”

I lowered my head and smiled. How hilarious! When everybody insisted that I didn’t deserve Dennis’s love, only Leo perceived something opposite.

“There is no way turning back. Grandma had gone and so did the mulberry tree in front of the door. Leo, just leave me alone and stop ruining my life, okay?” though I knew it wouldn’t work, I still told him my wish.

He still stared at the dark sky. His eyes turned to be blurred but still dark. After quite a while, he finally uttered, “I have tried so. But it didn’t work!”

‘Forget about it!’ I was a bit tired of this lame talk. I stood up and looked at him, “Drive me home.”

Now I figured it out—he didn’t intend to hurt me this time. Otherwise, he wouldn’t spend so much effort taking me here. He just fancied seeing my helpless eyes soaked in horror. As a predator, he only wanted a prey to kill time.

So I was sure he wouldn’t do anything harmful to me by now.

He sent me back to H Villas. After he parked the car, he locked the door again and fixed his eyes on me, “What about a night kiss?”

“Huh, don’t ever think about it!” I said with indifference while looking at him.

His desire for control seemed to surge up. He furrowed his brows, leaned against the seat and looked at me from above domineeringly, “Tell me! What if Dennis sees you staying in the car for long?”

But then he nodded and continued, “Well, but now he must be tending his beloved lady in the hospital, I reckon. So he might not have time to care about you.”

While speaking, he approached. But the clear smell of tobacco from his body displeased me.
