It has been two weeks now that Cathy wed and relocate. Susan drag her tired body to the empty house. she is more than lonely in here apart from that the house is too big for only her. She made a mental note to find another apartment.
She has promise Cathy she will visit her but not now, the coast must be clear before she does that. No one knows she is still alive. She looked around the empty house and sigh to herself. After her accident she is s always afraid to be alone.
She recall while she still work at the restaurant in the suburb she recollect how she always made an excuse just to stay behind near people. She is more afraid of darkness too, she can't stay one minute without light. She close her eyes and hot steam tears ran down her cheek.
Thou her life is fine now but she can not help but reminisce about the past. " Mother , where are you? I miss you so much.... Suzy miss you! why do I have to be like this? why do I have to suffer ....why, just why?" She continue to sob silently talking to the empty room. She pour out her emotion that she has hide deep in her.
She always cry herself to sleep every night and first thing in the morning that it has become an habit. ' It is almost a year now, those bastards must be enjoying my money now' .
' She started laughing hysterically at the thought. " I will make you pay!!!! You made me suffer you will suffer times ten of what I suffered." She calm herself before she drag her feet to her room to bath since she had eaten dinner with Jerry before coming home.
