and sat down, taking my heels off. What had gotten into him?

 

'Why didn't you tell me about Salmon?" he asked as he turned around.

 

"Salmon?" I repeated.

 

Ivan was coming towards me, and anxiety had crashed into my head. I quickly got up to escape from Ivan as I rushed towards the bathroom. Ivan had managed to grab me and pulled me towards him. My back was against his chest and his arm were around my waist as he held me tightly to himself. My heart was beating fast.

 

"I only want to protect you. You have no idea how much you mean to me," Ivan explained. I stood there quiet in his arms until I realised that I liked it there but I couldn't be there.

 

"I can take care of myself!" I yelled as I freed myself from his arms. My brain started hurting and I didn't want anyone near me. I started pushing Ivan towards the door so he could get out.

 

"Crystal, listen to me," he said. But I didn't listen to him.

 

"You have to trust me," he begged. I pushed him out the room and locked the door. I sat down against the door and held my paining head as I started crying.

 

"Crystal, let me in," Ivan banged. I got up and overdosed myself on sleeping pills and lay down on my bed. I was desperately wanting to run away from my past.

 

*4AM*

-Crystal’s Dream-

She was home alone with Salmon, watching a movie. They were sitting on the couch with the popcorn when Salmon pulled Crystal’s face and started kissing her.

 

“Babe I love you so much,” he said.

 

 “I love you too babe,” Crystal said.

 

Salmon grabbed Crystal by the hips and placed her on his lap with his arms around her waist. He placed his head on her shoulder and Crystal started brushing her hand through his hair. Salmon’s hand was making its way underneath her shirt which made Crystal uncomfortable. She got off Salmon.

“I need to go to the bathroom,” she said as she headed to her room. Minutes later Salmon went to her room and found Crystal lying on her bed. He locked the door and went and lay next to her, hugging her from the back.

 

“Salmon?” Crystal called.

 

“Yes babe, I’m here,” he said. For a few minutes they lay there peacefully until Salmon’s hunger for Crystal body couldn’t take it anymore. Salmon decided to put his hand in Crystal’s underwear which made Crystal react.

 

“Salmon stop!,” she yelled. Anger started to rush into Salmon. He turned Crystal and jumped on top of her.

 

“What is your problem. We’ve been together for 1 year and you still won’t let me touch you,” He exclaimed.

 

“I don’t want sex,” Crystal told as she tried getting out. Salmon pushed her back on the bed.

 

“But I want it and you will give it!” he yelled.

 

“No I won’t,” Crystal rejected. Salmon was getting really pissed. He forcefully tied Crystal’s arms and legs to the bed.

 

“I was being nice all this time but today I will get what I want,” he pleaded.

 

“You jerk, is this what you were with me for?” Crystal questioned.

 

“Yes!,” he exposed.

 

Exposed his really face. Crystal was left in disbelief. Salmon took out a scissors and started cutting Crystal’s shirt and then her underwear and bra. Crystal was lying there crying, begging him to let her go but that monster didn’t listen. He dug his face into her boobs and ate them like a beast. Making his way down her waist he started eating her pussy. Crystal laid there helplessly, crying. Salmon took his dick out and thrusted it into Crystal, making her scream in terror.

 

*Crystal*

My eyes had opened wide. I felt so restless and my heart was thumping, trying to get out of my chest. My eye’s started raining as I saw that dreadful night again. My body felt paralysed. These pills were no good I really had to find a way to get away from those memories. I was so confused that I wondered out of my room and ended up outside the house. I sat at the stairs in front of the front door.

 

The breeze felt good as it dissolved in the heat of my body. It was still dark outside. My mind felt some peace. "leaves move* I got scared but it must have just been a bird. *leaves move hardly again* I got up to see what it was and as I walked down two steps a saw a shadow. I turned back quickly to run inside as I bumped into someone.

 

"There's someone there. please don't leave me," I begged as I hugged them tightly.

 

"Crys, I am here, don't worry," Ivan convinced. 

CHAPTER 16: The Farewell

Ivan's POV:

 

Crystal was so scared and wasn’t letting go of me. I Picked her up and took her to my room. She was still mumbling "don't leave me," with her eyes closed as she cried. My whole shirt had been soaked in her tears. I sat her down on my bed and gave her a glass of water. I removed her hair out of my face. She had heavy breathing and was shaking.

 

"Crystal, I'm here. Calm down," I assured but she kept on crying.

 

"What are you scared of?" I asked as I held onto her hands.

 

"S-Salmon," she cried.

 

"Why Crys?" I asked. She just cried.

 

"Crystal, tell me," I begged as I shook her.

 

"That night..." she cried with heavy breathes. She started losing conscious.

 

"Crys, tell me," I encouraged.

 

"My room" she said as she fell on the bed.

 

"Crystal, Crystal!" I shook her, trying to wake her up.

 

I had never seen Crystal like this before. I was worried. I put the blanket on her and sat on the sofa. I could see the restlessness on Crystal's face as she kept on moving side to side on the bed. Mr Chen and his family were leaving at 11 today. It was 7am and I didn't decide to wake Crystal Up. I went downstairs and asked the maid to prepare breakfast for the family. I apologised on Crystal's behalf as she was not well.

 

"It's fine. She must be really worn out," they understood.

 

After the breakfast preparations I walked up to my room and got ready. Crystal was still sleeping. I chose to wear a white Nike hoddie with white sweatpants and white Nike joggers. I took a shower and changed.

 

--------------------------------------- 

Crystal's POV:

*10:45am*

I woke up and stretched my arms realising that I was in Ivan's room. He was sitting on the couch on his phone.

 

"Good morning," I greeted with a huge smile. He got up and hugged me. My eyes were still full of sleep, but his hug felt so good.

 

"You're awake?" he giggled.

 

"No, I'm still sleeping?" I giggled. Ivan was going to break the hug but I held on. I wanted to enjoy this.

 

“Crys?” Ivan called.

 

“Mhm,” I mumbled. He said nothing afterwards.

 

I looked at the clock and it was 10:45. Mr Chen and his family were leaving in 15 MINUTES!!

 

"Ivaaaannn-" I yelled as he cut me off saying "I prepared their breakfast and all we have to do is see them off."

 

I wasn't even ready and I didn't have time to get ready. I quickly got up and ran to the bathroom. I washed my face and applied some makeup on. I brushed my hair leaving it open. I didn’t have time to change so I grabbed their gift and headed downstairs with Ivan to see them off. They were sitting on the couch waiting for us.

 

"I am so sorry, I didn't realise the time," I apologised.

 

"It's fine Crystal. We want to thank you for a lovely trip. We do hope you feel better soon and may God bless you. You're a bright child," Mrs Chen appreciated.

 

"Thankyou so much, We had a lovely time with you," I commented. 

 

I wished Mr Chen and his family a safe flight with the bouquet of flowers and their gift. As I handed them over, Mrs Chen pulled me over for a hug.

 

“Crystal, we are so appreciative of your effort. We have never experienced a lovely holiday. You made us feel like family. God bless you" she said again.

 

"I am glad I made it memorable. I hope to see yous soon," I wished. Michelle just stood there on her phone with her attitude. I felt really sad. I felt like my parents had been with me. I stood their sadly as they walked out. It was such a great time. 

Ivan's P.O.V

 

I could see that Crystal was sad. I nudged her shoulder and whinged "I am so hungry". She turned to me as I looked at her and kept blinking.

 

She giggled "let's go". I followed her to the dining table where there was so much variety of delicious food. I picked up a glass of juice and toast. I just remembered that I wanted Crystal to meet my best friend Hunter, who had also been returning from overseas.

 

"Crystal, my best friend is coming back. I want you to meet him. We will be going out to a coffee shop to meet him at 2pm".

 

"Oooo, you have friends too," she giggled.

 

"Of course I do," I said.

 

"Oh yes, Ivan, I will be going back to my house tonight," Crystal said. My expressions changed.

 

"W-what.. but why," I questioned.

 

"I don't need to be here anymore, the guests are gone," she said. I really didn't want her to leave. I was having such a great time with her.

 

"Don't worry, we'll still see each other lol," she said.

 

She walked up to her room to pack her stuff. I wanted to get her a gift so I told her I was going out for a while. But before that I took a visit to the doctors. I sat down with my family doctor and explained whatever I had seen happen with Crystal. I even told him about her blank out times, where she’s remembering something but passes out and acts like nothing happened after. The doctor couldn’t come to any conclusion since he doesn’t know her medical records but suggested that I take her in sometime to makes sure everything is well.

 

After I was finished at the doctors I drove to the city which had the best gift shops. I picked up a few teddy bears, chocolate bars and a few decoration pieces which she liked. Took me a whole 2 hours to gather all the things but I knew she would like it. I wanted to spend some time with her before she left but the traffic was so severe. I knew I wouldn't be home by another hour. 

--------------------------------------- 

Crystal's P.O.V

 

I was in the room finishing packing, so I could get ready to meet Ivan's best friend. I chose a silver thin strapped, slip dress that fell 30cm below my waist with silver medium length heels. I curled my hair and wore a diamond jewellery set. I put on a light pink lip gloss and silver eye shadow with normal face makeup. I grabbed a silver, glittery purse and changed my phone case to a transparent one which had a silver rose in the middle.

 

*door bell rings* 

 

It must be Ivan. I went down and opened the door. A guy with dark brown curly hair with tanned skin, muscley body was standing there in a vanilla shirt, black pants and black shoes.
