Chapter One: The First Heart:
60Please respect copyright.PENANAQdvCFe7KsL
I remember that young man with green eyes, like two emerald beads, hidden behind strands of his black hair. His name was Harry, Harry Lukman. I remember the amount of love I showered upon that person, how much I loved him. I loved his eyes, and everything about him. We lived the best moments of our lives. We wandered through the corridors of love, getting intoxicated in them, and living together. Every time we laughed, I felt the bonds of my heart would explode, like a nuclear bomb about to detonate, while he remained there with his smile, enchanting me. But, but.

We were married, living an amazing life, loving each other, but he had started behaving in ways I had never known from him, behaviors I did not understand. He fidgeted whenever I told him we should go out and breathe the spring breeze. He refused my requests. He became very busy. With what? I had no slightest idea.

One day, I woke up and did not find him in bed. I thought he was in the garden. My intuition was not wrong, only in one thing.
60Please respect copyright.PENANA8dYnwSEH6L
I held my heart for a second, held my screams for a moment.
60Please respect copyright.PENANA6f3wb85mA7
I saw what my eyes never wished to see or dream of.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAxwTbq0Jryu
Any crazy lover like me would never wish for it.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAzzhaw8iq9G
I saw him with a tall woman, with blonde hair and green eyes, wearing a black short-sleeved dress with high heels.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAZe0RJnwkW5
She noticed me. She whispered incomprehensible words to him. She looked at me and gestured a farewell sign. But who was going to say goodbye, him or me?
60Please respect copyright.PENANAQTdmq4MTs2
Since that day, he no longer liked talking to me except for the basics.
60Please respect copyright.PENANA8hDPY7bWGN
Until the day came when he entered carrying a wedding ring. I knew without him uttering a word. I knew for whom the ring was. I knew.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAoT68hnsjvh
“Miss Cherry, do you accept the divorce from Mr. Coleman?”
60Please respect copyright.PENANA8UM58ZObB6
I looked at him one last look. He was cold, absent-minded, drowned in his thoughts.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAIcd80qlJ2p
“Yes. I accept.”
60Please respect copyright.PENANA8COwIsRhHQ
“Mr. Lukman, do you accept the divorce?”
60Please respect copyright.PENANAeHOWBGB5aX
He replied coldly. I wished to tear him apart and kill him.
60Please respect copyright.PENANA9oCEQBKwnH
“Yes. I accept.”
60Please respect copyright.PENANAYooojCpx01
Three months have passed since I heard his voice. He left me and took my possessions. He wrote everything in his name and in the name of the so-called Clara.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAhhOioxhskS
I think they are happy now.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAlItJQ0KSSE
As for me, I do not have an apartment. I do not own the rent. I wander in the alleys, searching for cardboard boxes to wrap my body in, and I let my tears flow over my cheeks. I loved him. I gave him all my love. I tried to offer him everything I owned. But he...
60Please respect copyright.PENANAMpTa9AcbKz
Sometimes, I scream, trying to release what remains inside me of pain.
60Please respect copyright.PENANA7hZAc6n4Ee
I do not know. I strongly desire to kill him.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAjdO1a238yp
One night, I was walking in the alley as usual, searching for something to sleep on.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAQkXC3oYBNi
I felt a cold hand sliding over my back. I let out a scream followed by retreat. I was terrified.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAGfKdFaetnv
Two men appeared as though they had just come out of a tavern.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAvPcZOdP0OT
Their smell almost killed me. But what killed me more was the knife they were carrying.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAtjNxg6ZCLL
“Please... no...”
60Please respect copyright.PENANA9TpbxbvINi
I said whispering behind my tears.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAtLiXUzAqOT
This is the end.
60Please respect copyright.PENANArFZ7e4rZDy
He abandoned me.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAOrf7EgKjCK
Death.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAgqGxWAtEg5
And he will never know that I died.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAQs2nqoK4Tw
He will never know.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAKSkbNxcNRI
Maybe right now they are exchanging love.
60Please respect copyright.PENANA3Rr9UJcITO
While I scream and die.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAVTy6ZDqQug
I want to cry.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAeKMxNq6DZ2
To scream.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAuAfiOESFfu
I closed my eyes and let myself go.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAZYKj6bAaIw
But suddenly, I heard one of them screaming in pain, followed by the other. I found them both fallen as lifeless corpses.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAVkiZgx8iz4
In their place appeared a tall man. Thin. His face was delicate. His hair was black. His black eyes appeared behind the city lights.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAOhAlpopy3N
“Do not worry. You are safe.”
60Please respect copyright.PENANAgUHmZHi0AM
“Thank you.”
60Please respect copyright.PENANAdnUX8goRCp
“You’re welcome. I am sorry for what happened to you. Are you okay?”
60Please respect copyright.PENANAt6vb86zcD0
“Yes.”
60Please respect copyright.PENANAiQ69zWIfCt
He looked at my miserable condition and my torn clothes.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAA4jhgJYU7G
“Would you like to live with me?”
60Please respect copyright.PENANA6KCubZbYuN
I was shocked by his question.
60Please respect copyright.PENANALrbc0pVqQf
“But on one condition only. That you become a killer.”
60Please respect copyright.PENANA2mZjpQSPrk
I looked at him. I did not understand anything. I felt myself frozen. A killer? I could not comprehend. I remained staring at the corpses.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAK1ziyt5fP9
But then, I remembered him. I remembered his face, my overwhelming desires to kill him.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAjL1gIMWCSo
I pulled that word out of my mouth.
60Please respect copyright.PENANA6FAyAOrbwY
“Yes, I accept.”
60Please respect copyright.PENANATPyab4skaM

There was a woman with thick black hair, wearing heavy clothes and carrying a weapon, standing on top of one of the city buildings. She received a call.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAHHotIBhoDL
“Oh, Lake, what is today’s mission?” she said in an excited voice.
60Please respect copyright.PENANARqqxupY1dR
“Harry Lukman. And Clara Litschk.”
60Please respect copyright.PENANAsVolsJgT14
“Wow. This is amazing!? Should I kill now or wait?”
60Please respect copyright.PENANAGDVRfYsfN4
“Shiry, shoot now.”
60Please respect copyright.PENANA6HctRqtagH
I straightened in my seat, preparing my killing weapon.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAzybEnYp1xA
Killing the one I liked torments me.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAMe1LFBfWUz
I stared.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAApia9U3OL3
I placed my finger on the trigger.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAnM9kM67G45
I looked at him one last time.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAu1IJ1jiiQB
The person I once loved.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAMIzDIjFkX9
Whom I adored.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAjyB21a2vSl
I now see him dying before my eyes.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAGfW1t42evw
Now.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAnZumcAk1Gc
I felt my finger hesitate.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAKzSBfbMP2y
“Now, Shiry,” I whispered to myself.
60Please respect copyright.PENANATqrA8Bd3fQ
Now.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAONmhxRb5OA
I do not remember.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAUhel5g5upW
Except the sound of the trigger.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAsD5A8hQOBH
Her scream.
60Please respect copyright.PENANALpelj5A6ua
His scream.
60Please respect copyright.PENANA1u88QV0PDi
And their blood.
60Please respect copyright.PENANAIkWoDuDlWX
“Goodbye, Harry Lukman.”60Please respect copyright.PENANAfHH6KWi6mo
