Professional Lakorn Watcher
ACT 23
If only it were that easy to take back words, Edward wishes he could do so. He ran fingers through his hair and thought of something to say to ease her pain that he just inflicted, but he knew it was too late to apologize. So why not just continue with the hate? He curved his lips into a smirk, going in for the pretentiousness of it all. What's the point of trying to redeem himself when everything seems unredeemable? In just a few hours, his beloved is going to be taken back with her parents. And then, back to the dark place he will go. So why not just go in for the kill and make Emily hate him? Edward thought that was the only thing left to do.
"Ohh... you just can't wait to go see that boyfriend of yours huh? Fine, then you'll just have to wait a minute. I have to go talk to Mr. James about using his car.." Edward says walking past her coldly.
Why does he insist on doing this? She thought. So if he wants to play this game, then fine, she'll go along with it. She wipe her tears and built up the guts to slash back at him. That's what he wants afterall, she thought.
"In that case, forget it. I'll just walk. I'd rather walk than be here with you any longer." Emily wiped her tears and limped to the room to grab her stuff.
"Wait! You know, you can't put pressure on that ankle. You need a splint." Edward grabbed her arm, but she pulled it away. "Uhh.... Wait here, I'm going to talk to Mr. James.. I'll be right back."
"No.. it's not neccessary. I told you.. I'll walk. Beside, you've always wanted to torture me. So.. there you go." Emily protest and pulled away from his grasps and limped to the chair to grab her stuff.
"But it's raining outside! What if you slip again??" Edward stood there, searching for the right thing to stop her from leaving.
"I guess my other ankle will just have to break then huh?!!" She started to raise her voice.
"Look, it'll just be a minute. Mr. James just got to his office. I'll be right back." Edward started for the door, but was stopped from Emily's screams.
"I said you don't have to, God damn it! You've wasted enough time on me. And I want to do you a favor and get out of your life, before I waste anymore of your time, okay!"
He paused at what she said and search for the right words. Anyything to stop her from leaving, but the anger and shock from the Connely's was just too much to bear. He walked towards her angrily and grabbed her shoulders, wanting to tell her not to leave cause he doesn't want him to leave. But when he opened his mouth, only angry words came out.
"So you admit, you want to hurry home so you can be with that boyfriend of yours then right??" Edward shook her as he glared into her eyes.
"What if I said yeah??? Would you let me go?!!" Emily challanged.
"No!! Not until you let me drive you home!" Edward barked, startling Emily.
His grip on her shoulders felt tighter as she stared ibto his eyes, searching to see what exactly is going on with him. One minute, he is Edward the sweet and gentle guy, the next, he is Edward the jerk. Whatever, it is, Emily wasn't about to take it anymore. Enough is enough she thought. All she wanted to do was listen, be someone he can confide in. That's the least she could do after everything he's helped her with. But what is this hold he has? Why is it so hard for him to let her in, she thought. And then the thoughts turned into anger when she thought of what he said to her earlier.
"Let go of me, Edward!" Emily shouted as she tried to loosen his grip.
Hot tears were starting to form behind her eyes. This was just too much to take. So many things has happened between them eventhough they are still strangers. It's like just when he is about to let her in, he suddenly shuts her out, and she has not a clue why.
Maybe this is the right time to get the truth out of him, she thought.
"Fine. if you won't let go, then tell me... .. tell me everything."
Suddenly the glare from his eyes softened. He does want to tell her everything, but how does he start? He has no clue. It's something he's been bottling up for so long. He even became the closet thing to death to try and understand it all. Cause he himself doesn't even understand it.
"There's nothing to tell. Even if I tell you, a girl like you wouldn't understand anyway."
"What do you mean? A girl like me??!!!"
"I already told you didn't I??? You are... no different from them!"
"From who??? From who, Edward?? tell me!!"
His grip on her shoulders suddenly got harder, causing Emily to yelp out.
Suddenly. Edward remembers that night again.
*Start flashback*
Robert and his buddies were standing around their fancy cars, still talking about the party as the police investigated that area. The 3 bodies were on still on the ground waiting for the coronor's office to arrive. Their white sheets stained with blood. Edward kneeled down, holding on to Emmy's hand and then his mother's. And as for his father's, he couldn't even look at the sheet, cause that was the bloodiest of them all.
That night, he felt like his heart has been cut into pieces. It was the most surreal feeling he ever felt, as if it was a nightmare that he couldn't wake up from. Everything around him was a blur, except for the three bodies before him. He couldn't even hear the police trying to get him to calm down and back away from the bodies. The only things he seemed to hear was the beating of his heart and their voice.
Robert: Damn.. how long will this take.. I got to get to a fucking party! Fucking dumb drivers.
Mike: Haha.. I guess they couldn't tell if our lights were blinking or not. Haha..
June: I've got to get home.. don't think I want to party anymore tonight.
Robert: Girl.. where do you think you're going?? (whispering) You want people to be suspicious??
June: Robert, the joke has gotten to far. I just want to go home.
Robert: Bitch, if you go home now, I swear.. (whispering)
Mike: Dude.. leave her out of this. She's just scared.
Robert: Man, if you can't control your bitch, then next time don't bring her alright???
Joey: Guys, com'on.. just enjoy the rest of the night okay? (whispering) Besides.. no one's got nothing on us
Was he the only one that could hear this? Edward's head was throbbing as he weeped holding on to their hands. And then the unthinkable happened. After some questioning, the police allowed Robert and his friends to go.
Robert: Officer.. like I told you, we swirve to the right to avoid the driver. I don't know if she was on crack or some dumb tourist, but she doesn't know how to drive!
Officer: Well.. that's it for now then. If there is anything else you kids remember about this accident, call the police station okay?
Joey: Sure will, Mr. Officer.
Officer: Wait a minute... Are you... the Robert?? Captain of Salem College team??
Joey: You're looking at him officer.
Officer: Wow.. my son loves you!! You inspired him to join his high school football last year.
Robert: Well, tell him I said hello then, officer.
Officer: That will do. Thanks son, you guys may go now.
Everything was so vagued and blurred. All he could remember were watching those people laugh and hop into their cars and drove off. That was when he knew he had to find out just what happened here. His mother, father, and his beloved; all gone, and somehow he knew it wasn't just an accident. Edward gritted his teeth through snot and tears as he held onto their lifeless hands.
*End of flashback*
"Edward!!! who am I not diffferent from??!!!" Emily shouted and tried to loosen the grip.
That's when Edward snapped back into reality. His eyes hardened and his jaws tightened.
"You're no different from those people who killed my parents and Emmy!!!! You folks are all alike.You smile at other people's pain! You think the world is revolved around you!!!" Edward shouted in her face while holding her shoulders.
Finally, Emily was able to peel his hands away from her shoulders. When her hands were finally free, she slapped him across the face. The sharp sting cut deep into his skin. He held onto it and glanced at her. Her whole body was shaken and tears ran down her face. She opened her mouth and spoke through shaken voice.
"I am nothing like them... nothing, you hear me!!!"
"So how'd you end up at one of their parties?!
"Robert invited me, so I accepted; I thought that I should make some friends, since I had none back home okay! I was a loser adopted child that her own parents didn't want!! I had no one, okay!!! Is that what you wanted to hear!!!!!!!"
"So thats it? You want to jump on the first wagon you see?"
That's when Emily slapped him again. She took a closer look at him and stared straight into his eyes.
"I'm sorry I ever met you. From now on, you and I are through. I will stay out of your life.. you won't ever see me again, I will make sure of it."
She searched his face, but he looked away not wanting to see her, not wanting to acknowledge what she just said. When he didn't answer, she wiped her tears and grabbed her bag and was about to leave, but suddenly Edward grabbed her arm and pulled her into his embrace. He wrapped his arms around her, and buried his face onto her shoulders. She tried to pull away from his arms, but they were so tightly wrapped around her body. She was struggling to get out, but after a second, she relaxed when she felt his whole body shaking. That's when she relaxed herself and then wrapped her arms around him too. She leaned her head on his chest as the tears flowed out of her eyes.
She didn't understand what was going on, but whatever he is doing now, it felt so good to be held tight his arms.
"Emily.. please don't leave..." He begged.
Spoiler:
