DAVID
About last night and Alicia’s confession, I already knew how she feel about me but it’s not just right cause I feel literally nothing for her.
I know I cut her really deep by telling her my heart was taken already. I feel for her though.
But it’s good thing she bottled up this morning cause with the way she spoke to me, she was a bit relieved.
It’s really gonna be hard for her to move on especially if her feeling for me is true.
There’s nothing I can do. I can’t split my heart. Ana is special and she’s the one I’m in love with.
****
As I drove along the highway, I managed to keep to time cause after admitting Ana’s mom , I’ll drive down to Mark’s place.
The kids are at home with rose so it buys me enough time.. and intend to use it well.
OSCAR
“Have you heard from Alicia? Cause I’ve noticed her absence anytime I come to your place for a visit” Oscar spoke out as he sat on the couch smoothening Nora’s hair who laid beside him, her head resting flat on his thighs.
“I haven’t seen her for the past days now.. she left the house without a call or a note telling where she’s at the moment” Nora retorted.
“You could have called at Least, just to know ”
“I know I’m supposed to call. But I just couldn’t. I don’t know why. Besides she shouldn’t have left in the first place without telling me.
She’s okay wherever she is… Why should I bother myself?”
A small frown stretched on her face.
“Nora. I don’t want it to seem like I caused a crack in your friendship with Your best friend… Cause I’ve noticed that ever since we started dating, you too haven’t been in good terms… And u Don’t like it.
Yes she broke up with me .. it was her choice. Not anybody’s fault.
That shouldn’t affect the friendship you two have been building up for a long time now”
Nora sat up from his thigh, facing him.
“Oscar you don’t understand. Alicia has been the one a bit distant from me lately.
If not, why would she leave the house without contacting me..
If she really cared about me, she would have tried to call. I just can’t force her back to me. ”
Nora stressed out. A bit hurt by the sudden realisation.
“Nora….” Oscar called, covering her hand with his.
“Call her tonight if she doesn’t come home. Please”
“Alright” she exhaled sharply… Placing her head on his shoulder.
ROSIANA
It was noon already and the kids were already fast asleep in their rooms.
Anna decided to stay in the sitting to watch some movies just to while away her time since there is nothing to do and David isn’t back yet.
While watching,… Alicia who was still around suddenly emerged from the room and decided to join her.
It was a comedy show so they watched and laughed heartily. It didn’t take long before the power went out. Depriving them of the show.
“Geez. I can’t believe the power is out…” Rosiana groaned.
“Powers don’t go out easily unless there’s a fault somewhere.
Where’s David? He should help us fix it or rather call the electrician” Alicia spoke out.
“He isn’t back.” Rosiana sighed out. Already missing him.
“That’s bad. So we gonna stay this way?” Alicia arched. Looking frustrated.
Already feeling the boredom that eluded the day.
“I guess”
“Where are the kids? The house seems queit”
“They’re having a nap,” Rosiana retorted.
“Uhm… Alicia, I’ll be back . I’m thirsty I need to drink water” with that, she got up and walked out.
ALICIA
Immediately she left, her phone which rested on the seat buzzed as a message popped in.
I picked it and stared at the screen. It’s from Mike. That name sounds famil—-
Oh Mike! Mike from the other day…
? Don’t forget today’s meetup at marigold’s resorte. I’ll be expecting you.
Love?? from Mike ?
I quickly dropped the phone. A date with Mike?
Does David know about this? It’s definitely not my business.
I’ll be leaving the house today and I’m scared that will be a more chance/reason to loose David to Ana. I’m scared.
Soon enough, she came back to the sitting and I welcomed her with a smile.
“So, Rosiana, I’ll be leaving today… Before I leave, do you have anything interesting we could engage in?” I asked. I’m really bored sitting here.
“Uhm… Well I uhm…I
“Why don’t we go swimming? There’s a pool beside the house. We could swim a little before I go. It’s gonna be cool for this hot noon” I suggested.
“Swim?… I c-cant swim” she looked terrified
“Don’t worry, I’ll teach you. I got to learn too. It isn’t hard”
I stated with a smirk stretched on my lip.
“But…
“Stop acting like a child. Just come along” I pulled her as we walked out.
[ Fast Forward ]
We stood before the pool with just our bikini’s. Dmn she looks so hot. No wonder David couldn’t resist her.
The thought alone made me even more angry. I just wish I could take advantage of this moment.
I stared at the pool which was a bit deep and wide. This is no pool for learners. But still, I’m gonna teach her here.
“Are you ready?”
ROSIANA
I stared at the pool and my heart heaped heavily. I Don’t have a good feeling about this. Not at all.
I stared nervously at Alicia and then to the pool…
“Are you ready?” She asked.
I couldn’t answer. This isn’t right. I can’t swim and the water is just too deep for learners like me. I could drown.
“Alicia. The pool is too deep and the current is a bit high. I don’t think I can swim in i—-
Before I knew what was going on,… I felt myself pushed into the water.
I flapped my hands helplessly trying to gain balance. I can’t swim… I just can’t.
I managed to raise my head above the water as my leg floated in it..
“Ali… Alicia I’m drowning. H-help me” the more I talked, the more I felt myself going Deep.
Alicia just stared blankly at me… Watching me struggle with the water. God. This is my end.
JANIETTA
Janietta woke up from sleep feeling a bit hungry. She needed Ana to serve her lunch… It’s noon already.
She searched the sitting for her but she wasn’t there.
Alicia too isn’t inside The house. Could it be they were both outside talking?
She’s so hungry so she’ll have to borrow Ana’s time for some minutes.
She walked out but still no sight of anyone. She slowly walked to the side of the house where she began hearing muffled screams.
She traced it towards the direction of the pool where she found Alicia standing above the pool and OMG!!! Is that Rose in there struggling with water?
ALICIA
I don’t know why… But I just had the urge to push her into the water.
I don’t really know why the urge came. Maybe it’s because she stole the love of my life ?.
I feel anger within me and I just can’t help it.. but stare down at her as she struggled with the water…
I stood there, rooted to the ground and unable to do something.
I felt controlled and I couldn’t help myself. My broken emotions were getting the best out of me. If she can just go this way, leaving David for me..
No one will suspect I have a hand in this.. they might take it as domestic accident.
Or that she lost balance in water and drowned.. i just don’t know.
But whatever it is… It feels like I’m under a spell.
I sensed someone’s presence behind me, but before I could turn to see who it was, the hand pushed me into the pool.
“How dare you!!!” She shouted.
It’s Janietta.
I found myself inside the pool too. Lucky for me, I can swim.
“You are trying to kill Rose? Help her out Dmn you!!” She panicked hard when she noticed Ana struggling to breathe.
As at now, I don’t really care. I wanted her to be extinct.
So, I swam out.
“Help her out please… I can’t swim too” she cried out in a pleading manner.
Instead, I walked out without uttering a word.
Deep down, I could feel the weight of what I just did but physically, I couldn’t control myself.
JANIETTA
Jannie stared as Alicia walked away. She is so evil!!!
Quickly she ran into the house, took Ana’s phone and dialed her dad’s number. There was no answer.
She dialed for ten consecutive times but still no answer. This time, her heart was already in her mouth… Pounding so fast.
Since no answer, she couldn’t waste anymore time cause Rosiana was loosing her life. She ran back to the side of the pool.
She took a deep breath and dived in… Conscious with the fact that she too can’t swim.
She pushed closer to Ana who was slowly loosing consciousness.
She tried pulling herself and Ana out to the edge. She tried for few fruitless minutes until she too started loosing balance.
She just realized, they were both drowning. The more she tried to swim, the more she went deep into the water..
“Help.. somebody h-help…,” Her voice was breaking. And it could barely be heard.
Ana can barely breathe… In no time, she too will stop breathing too… Unless someone comes to their rescue!
