CHAPTER 5

AXEL’S ROOM***

Axel sat on the bed, the mask was already removed from his face.

He brought out his phone and almost immediately, a message came up on his phone.

? WHEN ARE YOU COMING HOME, HONEY? YOUR DAD AND I WON’T DO ANYTHING ANYMORE, JUST COME BACK HOME AND STOP HIDING FROM US ? The message reads.

“Bunch of liars” he mumbled, throwing his phone to the bed.

He brought out a cigarette from his pocket, he lighted it before putting it in his mouth.

He stood up and removed the jacket and face cap, still smoking heavily.

His phone rang and he went to pick it.

“Hey buddy!” Aaron’s voice was heard.

“Hey”

“Heard the freshmen are having their party next week, wanna tag along?” Aaron asked.

Axel puffed out smokes from his mouth.

“As long as there are girls to fk” he said.

Aaron laughed over the phone.

“Of course they will, we can’t just go there in vain” he said.

“I’ll inform the rest”

“Alright”

“Have you gotten home?” Aaron asked.

“Yea, just now” Axel replied.

“Okay cool, let’s talk later” the call was disconnected.

Axel threw the phone to the bed and walked out of the room, a stick of cigarette in between his lips.

He went to the kitchen and brought out a bottle of alcohol. He took a glass cup and went back to his room without casting a glance at his roommate’s door.

MELANIE’S ROOM***

“You mean you have a guy as your roommate?” Paisley, Melanie’s best friend asked. They were both on the phone.

“Yes. You need to see the way he dresses Paisley, it’s totally out of it” Melanie shook her head.

“Living with a guy in one house, that’s really cool” Paisley smiled.

“What’s cool there? I really hate it, I wonder how Ace is going to react when he finds out I’ll be living with a guy. He won’t get mad, would he?”

“Don’t worry he can’t, I’ll come over tomorrow” Paisley said.

“Okay. So, how are you doing?” Melanie asked.

There was a sudden silence and she could hear someone whispering from the background.

“Pais, are you okay? Who’s there with you?” Melanie asked.

“No one, let’s talk later. Bye!” The call ended abruptly.

Melanie stared at her phone.

“What’s wrong with her?” She mumbled.

She shrugged and stood up. She was about to go out of her room when she remembered the assassin was at home.

“What if he’s in the living room? I should just stay here” she sighed and went back to the bed.

THE NEXT DAY, MONASH UNIVERSITY***

Melanie walked to the class and quickly took a seat by a corner, the class was yet to start. She just decided to come early.

She brought out a book from her bag when she felt someone beside her. She turned and a light ‘wow’ escaped her lips when she saw a girl beside her. She was looking cute and innocent.

“Hi, I’m Lauren” Lauren introduced.

“I’m Melanie, you’re beautiful by the way” Melanie complimented.

“Thank you. Are you offering this class?” Lauren asked.

“Yes”

“Same here. Do you mind being friends with me?” Lauren asked.

“Of course not, I’d love to” Melanie said.

They both smiled at each other.

“Melanie? I’m so sorry I came late. Actually I…” Paisley stopped talking when she saw Lauren beside her.

“It’s fine, you can join us too” Melanie smiled.

Paisley stared at Lauren before taking a seat with them.

“Lauren, meet my best friend, Paisley. Paisley, meet Lauren, my new friend” Melanie introduced.

“Hi” Lauren and Paisley chorused.

“By the way, have you seen Ace yet?” Paisley asked.

“Not yet. We can meet after the class” Melanie muttered

The lecturer entered and everywhere went silent.
