Chapter 2: Broken Hearted

My love for you is just like the winter,

Always so cold and un-returned.

For once I hope u will look at me,

But that is all but a wild dream…

I did not know what to write to me, less say. I observed his every movement. But one day, I saw him, walking with Pillica, the sister of my neighbour, Horo Horo. They were laughing happily and whispering to one another. I just could not stand this kind of behavior. What am I suppose to do? Walk up front and scream or shout in their ears? That won't do. But I must take revenge. No one can take him away from me. Never! I stalked them, their every movement. He escorted her home, and even kissed her on the forehead! ARGH! I had done so much for him. No way am I going to lose to that girl…

After he left, I walked up and smiled at her, holding a dagger in my hand. She greeted at me, but backed away when I grinned slyly, taking out the dagger. Suddenly, it started to rain. The lightning flashed, and Pillica screamed, but I covered her mouth and dragged her into my house. I advanced towards her, like a cat, across a cave floor. Pillica backed further to the corner. She thought of her brother. He might just have returned from school and might be searching for her. Pillica sank lower and tried to push backwards through the wall surrounding her. I took out the dagger once again, daggers poised above her. She closed her eyes tightly and hoped the ending would be swift…

"PILLICA!" Horo Horo screamed as he flung open the door. She was nowhere to be found. He panicked. Had something happened to her? Is she in any danger? His heart raced faster. He had promised her demised mother that he would take good care of her, as his father was abroad on a business. He knew nothing about his mother's death. But this is no time to find blame. He knocked rapidly at his neighbour's house when he heard a loud scream coming from his house. Is Pillica with him? What are they doing? He knew that he was a scary person. He was rumored to have killed a many people who do not obey him. What had her sister do to offend him? Just then, the door opened. All was quiet…

"Erm… is anything the matter Horo Horo? You seemed so agitated!" I asked, calming my nerves on just what had happened. She was not the first person I had silenced anyway. "RETURN HER BACK TO ME! I KNOW SHE IS WITH YOU! SHE MUST BE!" "I have no idea what you are talking about! Please leave." I said, closing the door. A pile of ashes laid gently next to my foot, hidden out of his sight…

Horo Horo panicked. He knew something had happened between his nieghbour and his sister, but what exactly was it. It was up to him to find out. Maybe he can start by finding it out from a guy that his sister is meeting more often lately… Could it all be related? He have to find out, and fast. No one knows what might happen next…
