I needed to hate you to love me (part 10)
Amy slowly blinked her eyes. Bright lights shined above her making her eyes burn. She forced herself to keep them open but she couldn't possibly do so. Everything felt so energy draining. She even her breathing, two figures standing before her were blurry.
She finally opened them wide, trying to take in her surroundings. Maria ran to her side within seconds holding her hand.
"God Amy you are alive" she said with a soft tone, trying to hold her tears.
"I was so worried" Adrian came behind Maria, his smile was genuine and sweet
Amy tried to smile but all the memories stormed in her mind.
The way the car flipped. The sight of her bleeding. The agonizing pain on her skin everytime a piece of glass would rip her skin apart. And then she saw Kamilah, smiling amusingly at the scene.
She winced holding her head.
"Are you alright? Do you want me to call a doctor?" Maria was so sweet, so caring, Amy wondered how she even turned her head to look at Kamilah, a murderer, a manipulator.
"No..no its just..all the memories coming back" she said squeezing her lover's hand reassuringly.
"What do you remember?" Adrian crossed his arms looking at her patiently
Amy closed her eyes taking a deep breath "pain, sadness, vulnerability"
Maria stroked her palm, her eyebrows frowned
"But most of all i remember Kamilah, laughing at us, she did it she--"
"Amy.." Adrian looked pitifully at her "Kamilah returned to New York its impossible--"
But Amy groaned "Maria at least you believe me?" And she didn't, she wanted to but maybe the accident caused her trauma.
"I will go get a doctor" she said leaving the room.
Adrian paced back and forth lost in his thoughts until Amy broke the silence
"Maybe the state you were in made you see illusions Amy" he said careful with his words, trying to be compassionate
"No Adrian!!" She now raised her voice frustrated "she would do anything to ruin my lif--"
"Would she? She loves you Amy, she told me so nights ago how could she put you in danger?"
Her thoughts were a mess. Maybe Adrian was right, after all Kamilah left and she would live happily with her fiancé, finally living their dream.
The doctor walked in the room, Maria followed him behind,his smile was warm "How are we feeling huh?"
Amy shrugged "As fine as i can be"
He wrote something on his clipboard, a dark expression in his eyes "Your wound was almost fatal Amy, you were lucky you survived. All you need now is rest, please dont do much effort to move"
Amy nodded as tears ran down her cheeks, Kamilah was probably somewhere laughing at her victory but she refused to give up that easily.
As months passed by Maria took care of Amy. Nightmares was something she experienced often. The glass spraying everywhere, the sound of the metal breaking, the smell of blood. Everything made her suffocate but Maria was there to hold her each night.
She didn't contacted Kamilah since the accident. Its been 4 months and her consciousness hasn't calmed yet. No one believes her, they were all so consumed by her composed posture, her strong personality that they described her as an angel, when in reality she was the devil.
"I know she hurt you before but she wouldn't go this far"
"Would she though? She loves you Amy"
"I am your best friend and as much as i would like to be at your side, i don't actually believe she would plan to kill you"
And then it clicked. She didn't want her to get hurt, she wanted her fiancé to have her fate.
She stood up from the bed signing pouring herself a glass of whiskey. Maria was working late tonight, after the protests Amy did reassuring her she would be fine.
Something fell off. The room suddenly felt more cold, a presence could be felt near the shadows
"Will you pour me a glass too? I need it" a voice said making Amy jump. Turning around she wishes its just a nightmare put it wasn't.
There she was standing Infront of her. Kamilah.
A shiver ran down her spine, she hasn't heard that tone in so long. The figure appeared and she let the glass fall to the ground, glass spraying everywhere.
She watched as the glass flew freely around her legs, the images of the accident a painful memory. She could feel it ripping her skin apart, she could still smell the blood running down her body painting her red.
Everything felt to much, her legs failed her as she let her body fall to the ground. Her eyelids slowly closed, all the pain consuming her.
Her head felt heavy, her body numb. Opening her eyes she found herself on the bed next to Maria. Was it really just a dream? But then a slight pain from her legs made her wince. Pulling the sheet she could see fresh cuts in her knees, it wasn't a dream.
Maria turned around reaching for Amy. Her warmth was inviting but she stood still, the realisation hitting her.
"What happened mon amour?" she asked gently pulling Amy closer.
"Kamilah was here last night" she spat out in disbelief
Maria laughed "oh baby what did i tell you? I wont let her hurt you, it was just a nightmare"
Amy pulled away. Why would nobody believe her? Maria should be the person who would understand her better than anyone but she didn't, she was to close yet to far.
She stood up in hurry trying to find something to wear
"No dont Maria, you dont listen to me, i need a walk" she put on her jeans pulling up the zipper "alone"
Maria was now standing near her walking slowly "Mon chou its just impossible for her to--"
Amy groaned "Leave me alone Maria" and like that she took her coat and left their house walking down the street.
The cold wind hit her face as the tears ran fresh down her cheeks. Why would nobody just listen to her? She knew everything she experienced was real. She wrapped her hands around her self sitting on a bench looking at the night sky.
"Its dangerous to be alone, especially when you consider me evil" Amy heard behind her. She froze, her heart raced. She refused to turn around because that meant facing the reality.
Kamilah sat next to her, her eyes fixed on her smiling "We meet again" she purred as Amy looked beside her gasping. She was indeed there, real.
"Kamilah.." she breathed out like in was a sin, an awful word.
Kamilah smirked "We need to talk dont we?"
