Demons Exist, Angels Do Too!

She walked straight to the driver's side, He was going through his phone, he looked up and smirked.

"Am sorry, I didn't mean those words, they just came out of a rush" she apologized.

"Am trying to help you and you are behaving like a child, you shouldn't take my kindness for granted" he came down from his car.

He walked straight to the station, there was a small building with an open counter.

The station man was an old man with a slim body, he looked hungry and greedy.

"Can I get a bus going to Swilleview?" he asked the man over the counter.

"Yes, It's will cost you 30 dollars," the station man said with a greedy face."

"What 30 dollars to swilleview? That's way too much, swilleview isn't far from here" she told the station man.

"Then you can trek to swilleview, that's the last price no less" he continued with his writing.

She looked around to see if there was another station man who will attend to them, but it seemed he was the only one available. She turned back to the man.

"We can't pay that amount, the money is much for a twenty minutes journey and ..."

Her savior interrupted her " sir, please give her a ticket, am going to pay" He ran his hand to his suit pocket brought out the money, and gave it to the station man.

"Thank you sir here is your ticket" The bus will soon be leaving.

Bellezza felt ashamed at the moment, she wished the grounds could open and swallow her! The station man won over, she wanted to negotiate the price, it wasn't fair when she sees corruption taking the lead.

She collected the ticket. "Thanks so much, I pray we met again and I should be in the position to help".

"You are welcome, get to the bus and make sure you get home safe, It's already late he said".

Bellezza watched as he drove away, monsters exist and angels do too! She met both today!

She sat close to a window In the bus and hoped for the journey to start soon. She knew her mum won't be worried about her because she told her, she was going to sleep over at Zoe's place.

Bellezza Addison lived with her mum in swilleview, she had a little brother who was still In his fifth grade, George Addison. She had two best friends Jove and Zoe, these three loved adventures, crime investigating, and going for a search parties.

When She closed her eyes, the only image she could see was the forest creature. Her heart raced faster, Bellezza opened her eyes to be sure of the environment she was in. She was still on the bus with other passengers. She became relieved.

***

Twenty Minutes later, The bus stopped in front of a cream building, she looked to the side and caught sight of a red Toyota car, She made her way to the house.

Bellezza got to the front door and turned the doorknob, but it was locked, she slipped her hands to the back of her pants and brought out a key.

She opened the door and saw that the lights were off and No one was in the living room.

Quietly, climbing the stairs, she made her way to her room and locked the door from inside.

Bellezza sat down on her bed and cried out her heart. She felt guilty about the previous incident.

"How am I going to explain to everyone what happened in the woods," she said running her hands back and forth in frustration.

She wasn't going to tell anyone about it, not even her mum. Calming herself down she lay on the bed to rest and with no time she fell asleep.

***

The next morning she woke up with a fever and her wounds were yet to heal. She stood up from her bed and walked to a giant mirror in the corner.

Bellezza saw her reflection in the mirror and she was not impressed.

Bang!!

The door slammed open, A woman in her late thirties entered the room. She was still dressed in her nightgown and she looked worried.

Bellezza stopped what she was doing and turned her head towards the door. She screamed.

"Mum!"

She didn't know her mum will come to the room, at that hour. it was too earlier for their drama, she brought down her shirt to hide her wounds.

"What happened to you, Belle ?" Her mum said drawing closer to her. "You got yourself into trouble right?"

"Am fine mum don't worry?" she said avoiding her mum's gaze.

"You aren't, you look pale, dirty, hungry, and tired" her mom's face frowned. "Didn't you take a shower before sleeping?"

"I was too tired mum," Bellezza went back to her bed and lay down. She was feeling dizzy at the moment.

"You are bleeding Belle, aren't you going to tell me what's wrong with you ?" She sat close to her daughter. "Am not going to take *am fine mum* for an answer" she mimicked.

Hot tears rolled from her eyes down to her cheeks. Her lips parted "Mum, Jove is Dead" was all she could say.

She fainted.
