Chapter four

Red and Sting came in. Soon enough they all started to eat. 

While they were eating Sarah decided to start the introduction which she actually forgot about. 

"Sofia, this is Red, my boyfriend" Sarah said while placing her hand on Red's hand which is on the table. 

It is a round table so Red and Sarah is facing each other and Sting is facing Sofia. 

"Nice to finally meet you Red." Sofia said and smiled. 

"The pleasure is all mine dear" Red replied. 

"This is my good friend, Sting" Red said. 

Sting raises his head for the first time after sitting to eat. He looks in front of him and sees Sofia's hand and then her face. 

"Umm, my friend doesn't do handshakes." Red said. 

"Oh." Sofia says and drops her hand. 

"She is the girl who was threatened by her boss. She is actually beautiful from close up." Sting thought. "She's just going to give her body up like all bitches do. How cheap." Sting added still thinking. 

That was the first time Sting complimented a woman's beauty. 

Red noticed that Sting is lost in thought but didn't notice that it is because of Sofia. Red tapped Sting and he came back to reality but didn't show any sign of surprise.

"What's the matter?" Red asked. 

"Nothing..." Sting said. 

Flashback... 

Sting was passing by when he heard Sofia and her boss. When Sting heard Sofia's boss ask her to sleep with him he said to himself, women are always cheap, always after money. He was about to leave when he heard Sofia begging instead of agreeing. "At least that's something different for now." 

Back to reality... 

"She will give in to his desire to have her sooner or later." Sting said. 

"What are you talking about?" Red asked. 

"None of your business" Sting replied. 

"Well talk about rude" Sarah said. 

Sting glanced at her with evil intent. Red was trying to get to know Sting as a friend. That's why he invited him to tag along to his girlfriend's home. Sting never wanted to come but he just agreed to come since he had nothing better to do. 

"Why are you looking at her like you are some sort of murderer?" Sofia asked Sting. Sting smirked at her. 

"What I do is non of your business bitch" Sting replied. Sofia's mouth fell open. She walked to where Sting is sitting and slaps him. 

"What did you just call me?" Sofia yelled. 

"You can't just come into someone's home and insult them!" Sofia added. 

Sting stood up immediately and grabbed her neck. 

"You fool! How dare you slap me! Now I will teach you a lesson you will not forget in a hurry!" Sting said.

Sting drew out a knife and is about to stab Sofia. 

"Stop! Pls!" Sarah yelled. 

"She is the only one I've got. Don't kill my sister!" Sarah added and began to cry. 

Sofia was choking as Sting's hand still held on tight to her neck tightly. Sting used the knife on the table to make an "s" mark on the left side of Sofia's chest. 

"Let this remind you of your mistake. Nobody dares me." Sting said and grinned. Sting lets go of Sofia's neck. Sofia drops on the floor and starts gasping for breath.

"Oh Sofia, I'm sorry, so so sorry." Sarah cried as she held on to Sofia.

Sting left but Red waited behind for Sarah and Sofia. 

"I'm so sorry I invited him. It's all my fault. I should have came on my own." Red said, feeling very bad about his action. 

"Please leave. If this is what your friends do, only God knows what you are like. I don't want you two near I and my sister." Sarah says, sobbing.

Red looked at her in surprise.

"Is she breaking up with me? No, but we... we just started dating..." Red thought when a tear drop rolled down his right eye. 

"Ok... I'll leave." Red said to Sarah. 

At Sting's house... 

"So that bitch thinks she can lay her hands on me and get away with it? Well, the game has just began." Sting said and smiled as if plotting something devious. 

At Red's place... 

"What is wrong with Sting! Look what he has done! I was only trying to be friends with him but it turns out this is the only thing I will benefit from a ruthless Serial killer. He even murders women! What was I thinking?" 

Red kept yelling and yanking on his hair.

"Stupid! Stupid!" He said to himself.

Back at Sarah's place... 

"Sofia I'm so sorry, this all is my fault... " Sarah says to Sofia who was already lying on her bed. 

"Why did you speak to Red that way? I can see he really likes you and you like him too." Sofia said. 

"As long as he is friends with that Sting of a guy you are not safe Sofia." Sarah said. 

"He is the same guy who almost killed me at the club," Sarah added. 

"What! And you let your boyfriend invite him here!" Sofia said. 

"He only wanted us to get along that's all, but it obviously didn't go well." Sarah said. 

"You think!" Sofia yelled. 

Sarah burst into tears. Sofia could feel that she didn't want to loose Red.

"It doesn't mean you should leave Red, it's not his fault. He is really a good person." Sofia said. 

"But...", Sarah said. 

" Don't worry about me, I'll be fine" Sofia interrupted. 

"Thank you!" Sarah said and hugged Sofia. 

"You and Sting will make a good couple don't you think? " Sarah said. 

Sofia looked at her annoyed. 

"You both got anger issues, just at look the way you left your seat just to give him a slap." Sarah added and laughed. 

"How dare you pair me with a murderer." Sofia said and starts hitting Sarah with a pillow. 

Sarah starts to laugh and hits her back as well. 

"I love you sis." Sarah said. 

"And I love you too" Sofia replied. 

One week later... 

Sting wakes up early and takes his bath. He leaves the house before his parents can even wakeup. 

This was actually surprising because doesn't really wake up that early unless he is on a mission. And indeed he is on a mission but not to kill. He is on a mission to deal with Sofia. 

"Let me see what she tells her boss." He said to himself and smiled with evil intent. He sees Sofia enter her boss's office and sits.

"So, what is your decision?" Her boss asked. 

"I'm sorry sir but I'd rather be jobless than do such a thing with you" Sofia said. 

"What! Get out of my office you fool! That's what you want. Your loss not mine!" Her boss replied. 

"Thank you sir" She replied and stood up. 

When she stepped out she saw Sting at the entrance of the restaurant.

"What are you doing here?" Sofia asked and Sting laughs at her. 

"How do you plan on getting money now? Will you become a prostitute? Or maybe you would ask your sister to do it instead? Oh, I know! You will beg people's parents for money since you are orphans" Sting said and laughs at Sofia so hard so that his words will sink down in her soul. 

Sofia didn't say anything but ran away crying. 

"Next time don't mess with me." Sting said feeling satisfied. 

It was very difficult for Sting to fake a laugh because he almost never laughs. 

Sofia ran to a bench in the park. Still crying, she sat on the bench. 

"How will I band my sister survive now? Why does this have to happen to me? To us? Why! God why?" Sofia cried aloud. 

"Young lady what is the matter?" A man's voice sounded. 

"I got fired because I refused to sleep with my boss" Sofia cried. 

"So terrible" The man said. 

"is there any way I can help?" He added. 

"Sir, I only need a job." Sofia said. 

"Ok, here is my number" He said, giving her a card. 

"Contact me tomorrow for a job as a house maid" he added.

" Oh thank you sir, thank you." Sofia replied. 

"Don't worry, just wipe your tears." The man said and stood up. 

The man who was speaking to Sofia was known as Mr Biggio. No one knew the source of his money and no one bothered, as long as he gave it out to them. 

Mr Biggio bumped into Sting while Sting is on his way to the park to watch Sofia cry.

"Isn't that the human trafficker Mr Biggio?" Sting said to himself. 

"What could he have discussed with Sofia?" Sting wondered as he went straight to Sofia. 

"I know you've come here to watch me in pain, but you know what? That nice man over there just offered me a job as a housemaid." Sofia said, pointing at Mr Biggio. 

Sting laughs and says to Sofia, "I don't think you want to do that." 

"Oh, and why not? So I can follow your stupid advice? No way." Sofia said and walked away.

Sting watched her as she walked till she was out of sight. 

"Maybe I should tell her about the man. After all, if she dies her sister would be alone. Wait, what?
