Revenge

EDWARD JOHNSON:

I couldn't hold anymore any longer after hearing what Lily had told me.

I somehow managed to hold myself together hoping whatever Lily told me just now turns into a lie..

Hoping, maybe, she must have mistook Stella with someone else...

My baby sister doesn't deserve to die....

I went over to the table and scooped up my bag from the chair I was seated into. Amy looked up at me confused.

"Are you leaving? Is everything okay?" She asked in her sweet voice.

I wish I could spend some more time with her but right now, I have something really important to go to.

"Uhh.. Yeah, I... I kinda have an emergency. I am really sorry Amy, I never wanted to ditch you like this." I said meaning every word I said.

"That's okay! I hope everything would be positive." Amy stood up, scooping her bag too she said and we both walked together to the cafe entrance and then parting our ways.

AMY WALKER:

The moment I left the cafe I started getting calls from my father.

I was in no mood to pick up his calls. He was just so irritating right now I could talk to anyone but him.

I don't even wanna look at his face, forget talking.

But his continuous calling me was getting on my nerves and so, I finally picked up

"Thank god Amy, you picked up!" Dad said taking a deep breath.

"What is that supposed to mean?"

"Did you eat something?" He asked ignoring my question.

"Cut the crap Mr. Walker! I don't consider you as my father anymore!" I said.

"Amy, why are you getting so infuriated?" He asked.

"Seriously, dad? Do you think I don't know what you did? You're a robber, you're a gangster, you're a murderer, you're a rapist too and now you raped a girl even younger than your own daughter? Tell me how should I consider you as a father, huh? Am I even safe with someone like you? Why dad..." I just couldn't hold it inside me any longer..

I started crying over the phone.

My dad is the most horrible person in this world.. Now, I know this.

"Amy, I won't ask for forgiveness, but please, the things I did, for that do not punish yourself like this. You haven't eaten anything since morning, and I am really worried about your health. Don't talk to me if you don't want to but at least eat something!" He said

Ofcourse! He cares for me!

But it would be so much better if he could be a little more considerate of other people too.

And why does he do this.. Why??

"I'll eat, fine? First you tell me one thing... Why?" I asked again.

I know he won't answer like always but still I keep trying.

"Amy, I love you. You're the only person I care the most about in this whole world. Please eat something. For the sins I commited, you don't have to pay the price. Eat something please!" He said and hung up.

I was so mad at him. And he is right too!

Why should I punish myself for his deeds?

He won't become sane..

He would not change!

And I know this for a fact.

My stomach growled loudly and taking this as a signal from the universe, I headed back into the cafe and ordered my favorite Pepperoni Pizza and a Cheese Cake with a Hot Chocolate.

The combination was weird, I know.. but nothing in my life was normal too, except Chris.

Two years more, after that I'll have nothing to do with Mr. Walker and his shadows.

.....…......

After eating so much I was full upto the brim.. The food kind of helped me to become sober too, to take my mind off certain things.. Involving my dad and his dark world.

Just when I came out of the cafe an hour later and started walking towards our college gate with slow steps enjoying the cool soothing breeze, I felt a hard hit at the side of my head and soon I slipped into the darkness.

EDWARD JOHNSON:

One look at my sister and I was devastated.

She was there, her body was half burnt.. She was naked, the clothes they had found was thrashed and burnt.

I couldn't help but taking that piece of cloth in my hand sink to the ground and cry.

A police officer put his hand on my shoulder for sympathy.

"Don't worry son.. everything will be alright!" He said.

Alright?

How will any of this ever become alright?

I lost my sister, my only family..

The only person in this whole world who reminded me that I have someone to look after, to turn to, to care for, to call my family.

After her, now, I was completely alone in this world...

And this man tells me everything would be fine?

"How did this... happen?" I asked my voice breaking.

"Your sister's body was spotted by the woodcutters in the dawn. We examined her body and it has been found that she was beaten by belt, her hands were tied to a tree, she was raped and then her neck was slit. After she died, alcohol was sprayed on her body and then she was burnt."

Something inside my heart just broke when I heard the officer explaining how brutally she was killed.

She was just thirteen, a minor. My baby sister!

She didn't even grow up so much to understand anything and was raped by a man like that?

What kind of a black hearted guy he must be to trash a little girl like that?

"Do you... Happen to know who could be behind all of this?" I asked, with my dried throat

"We do not have evidence as such but I guess, there could possibly be only one man behind this brutality, 'Mr. Adams Walker'". The officer said.

His voice contained fear in it, fear of Adams.

So, that sick bastard is a mafia?

I don't care!

I fucking want to avenge my sister!

I fucking want to inflict him the pain my sister went through... multiplied into infinity.

I just have to know that bastard's weakness.

I didn't react much and heavy footed got up to sign the papers so that I could take my sister's body for the funeral.

But, I have vowed to not bury her in peace unless I send that Adams Walker in hell with infinity times the pain he caused to my sister.

At the doorstep I accidentally overheard two cops talking amongst themselves

Officer 1: "Poor boy, he was an orphan and used to work day and night for his and his sister's future. I really pitty him."

Officer 2: "Yeah, and it's sure that Adams is behind this, didn't you see, how he came in the afternoon to collect his 'A' marked shirt, the evidence against the criminal and nobody even tried to arrest him? He appears to be a really powerful guy!"

Officer 1: "Isn't there anyway to take him down? Maybe he has some weakness?"

Officer 2: "Weakness? Adams?? I don't think so... But I have heard he has a daughter. Amy Walker. Man, that girl is pure soul. Poor girl is stuck with a monster father like him."

Officer 2: "But, I have heard Adams loves his daughter a lot and that he would do anything for her!"

Officer 1: "Who wouldn't? A father can certainly do anything for his child!"

Amy Walker?

So, Amy is Adams weakness?

I'm sorry Amy, but I have to use you to avenge my sister!

I hate the guy who hurt my sister!

She was like a daughter to me!

And your father, killed her!!

I'll do anything to avenge my sister from your father.

I'm so sorry Amy, but you and your father need to pay the price
