A Psychopath'S Obsession
A farewell smile

I was still sitting in front of the mirror, where Aunt Teresa was still combing my hair. Ah, she was the woman yesterday. I'm connecting from Theo. He said whatever Theo did to me he didn't like it, so when I was here I didn't have to worry about Theo being violent anymore.

"From the first aunt wanted to have a daughter, but could not because she had to be hired with the Cavalry family. It's okay, they're a good family. And Theo, he's also a good kid so don't worry if he beats up or does anything rude again" Aunt Teresa said, tying my hair.

"Auntie... If so, why not just go out? This job seems to be curbing" I replied lightly as aunt Teresa told me.

She simply smiled knots, while finishing the final part to tie my hair. To be honest, I was very happy, Aunt Teresa was very good at tying hair.

"There are some things that are not as easy to talk about dear, at least aunty getting a successful child like Theo it does not matter" he said with a smile while hugging my neck.

I think again maybe Teresa's aunt really wanted to have a daughter. He saw again with his ability, and his behavior was like more pampering girls. It's impossible to do the same to Theo.

I still can't forgive him, maybe he brought me here. Not coming for a few days, but still I still can't forget what he did to me. The scar may have faded a little, but this memory is still clear.

"Emelin, what are you thinking?" aunt Teresa asked when she realized my daydream.

"No problem... It's just that I'm thinking something. It's not important, so it's okay" I said with a sincere smile.

"Alright, " said Aunt Teresa, holding my hand.

At first I thought we were going to have breakfast as usual. But as I passed the dinner table, I was honestly a little curious. Especially when you get out of the house, and wait a while outside.

"Auntie? Why are we standing here?" ask me after a few moments of standing here.

"Auntie is waiting for aunt's child... He said he was going to stop by the house for breakfast" he said, wiping my hand which he still held.

I slightly raised one of my eyebrows, a sign of confusion. But here's another one too I suspect, is Theo whom Aunt Teresa meant.

"Sorry aunt whose child, did auntie mean it's The-"

"I'm home, sorry to wait so long" there was a bass sound coming into my ear.

Spontaneous I directly lead to the source of the sound, where right there is Theo who is tidying up his clothes. Not to mention beside him, there was also a man who kept smiling towards me.

My body immediately shivered for a moment, where I tried to run away from here. But the results were futile when the baby Teresa took my hand, and prevented me from leaving.

"Auntie! Meaning aunt... Aunt Teresa! Ja-don't tell me if aunt betrayed my trust too" I said with tears coming out.

"Son... Take it easy, trust your aunt" said aunt Teresa, adding to her hand.

I looked at Aunt Teresa in disbelief. While looking towards the direction where Theo was already in front of me.

"Sorry we're a little late, i-" Theo said to a halt as Teresa's aunt slapped her.

'This person wants to get me in trouble' I said silently as I stared firmly at Aunt Teresa.

A strong slap, even my hand felt sore. What happened here, there is still no clarity.

"Is it sick, baby?" aunt Teresa asked as she rubbed my slightly reddened hands.

"Eh-?!" spontaneous word for surprise.

I don't know what Aunt Teresa thought when she did something like this.

"And to you Theo, who taught you to act so arbitrarily like this. You know you put him here, with a scar that's almost all over his body. At that time I was silent because I was speechless, but right now I can say that what you did was not right" Aunt Teresa said in a slightly raised tone.

Is this angry? Would Aunt Teresa be angry like this? The question came up when he saw Aunt Teresa's face. I've never seen a side like this, all I've ever seen is a mother's sincere smile.

"To live in a world like this, don't I always make mistakes. This is also a natural thing, it doesn't matter if I kill him like the others" Theo said suddenly as he opened his voice.

It's a more pressing situation than usual. I don't even think about getting into this situation. Equally a pressing and powerful aura, why can Aunt Teresa be this strong to scuttle me now.

"Well, then kill him now!" aunt Teresa said in a higher tone.

Shortly after, Aunt Teresa immediately took me right in front of Theo. With a face that was now right in front of me, between fear and anxiety mixed to keep one.

"Kill him Theo" Teresa's aunt returned with a gun, and gave it to Theo.

"AUNT! I GUESS KA-"

"Shut up!" He shouted while placing Theo's hand which was given a gun right in front of my head.

I looked at Aunt Teresa and Theo in turn. This cruel world, Aunt Teresa could even gain one's trust by behaving like a mother. Where undeniable, he lives in a world there with Theo.

I have my eyes flowing, with no words coming out again. My trust in her is a mother, long gone. And now there's nothing I can do anymore, just the smile I'm showing.

Aunt Teresa once said that if she died, she wanted to say goodbye with a smile. So that the face that is remembered is just a smile of happiness, gratitude, and trust. And now I do.

"Thank you" I said with a smile and looked at Aunt Teresa.

Although I can't stand the tears, at least a smile can still be done.

What's more now, staring at Theo with a wistful look. When the gun was cold right on my forehead. Honestly it's cold, with the same thing the last time I smiled staring at my own death.

Mama once said, death can lurk everyone. Death is painful, but do not be afraid of death. Because you don't even know when death comes. It could be tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, or the present.
