VERGLAS (Complete)

GOD MOTHER

When i noticed that the stranger is actually a girl all this time, I scream immediately,  “YOU ARE A GIRL?” My jaw drop to the floor, and I stand dumbfounded. I Am completely shocked and surprised. 

Whoa!! She is a girl, and  not an ordinary girl, but a beautiful redhead with sea-green eyes. She has a perfect body any guy can die for, and her hairs flows with the air, making her look like a mermaid. She is so good looking; I keep staring her looks, for a second I thought she is a Hollywood celebrity. I doubt my own sexuality. I am drooling over her and I have never drooled over a girl before. She is so damn hot.

She looks keenly at me and and smirks wildly, and finally says something after observing me from head to toe, “we are lacking the time so we will introduce our self later, and we need to leave this place immediately as they must have known by now that the cop is dead. We can’t take any risks for our lives.” She holds my hand tightly and drags me out of that station.

I did not understand what she actually meant by her words so i ask her instead, “Wait, what are you saying and why did you kill him?” I ask her but she did not answer my question and keep continue to drag me out of the station. After covering a great distance from the station, we reach to a stranded area. she persists me to leave the place but I can’t resist anymore, so I ask her furiously, “Who are you? What do you want? And why did you kill that cop? Do you have any idea if the Police will find out about the crime, they will put in jail for murder?” I raised my voice and yells at her because she is not answering any of my questions and ignores them like a plaque.

“hey! I am talking to you. Are you deaf or something? What the hell is your problem?” I snatch my hand back from her grip and try to run away from her. I Can't tolerate her miserable attitude for another minute.

I just take a few steps ahead and a sheet of thin ice forms in front of my feet, blocking my way. I fume and turn back to face her; I notice her playing with her finger and makes random circular patterns in the air. i sigh and ask her, “What?”

“I said that we have to leave right now,  and you will do what I will ask you to do. We can’t stay here for a long time as the enemy is out there and they will do anything to get their hands on you. This is a simple thing to understand. Now you know why we have to move quickly from here.” she blurts out aggressively and I retaliate too.

“NO! I  won't listen to your bullshit and I am not coming with you. How can I trust you, we barely know each other plus you have just killed a cop in that coach like it was nothing you? You could be one of those private detectives that my foster mother sends out for me get in jail.” I speak in a single breath without interrupting in between. I Am out of breath and shaking in fear; more of that, everything which is happening around me is completely weird, and inhumanly. The things that happens in books and movies are now happening with me. I think I am going insane or I Am in a deep sleep and dreame all of this.

She takes small steps and approaches me, and puts her hand gently on my shoulder, “Listen to me girl, I am not the only one here, who killed someone and on run away. And the police is chasing you too.” she says.

She continued, “Listen, we have to get out of here to somewhere safe. Okay? Then I will give all the answers of your every question. By the way, I am Daphne.” She gives me a heart-warming smile. I don’t know, but I want to trust her even though she is a stranger, but still my intuitions wants me to believe her. Well, what I can say now? I don’t really have a choice. i have no place to go so I am going with her.

“We should take another coach to Toronto, it’s almost early morning and we will still find one.” I shrug while giving a suggestion. But she shook her head.

She says “first thing is that we are not going to Toronto or anywhere near Toronto, and second thing is that, we don’t need a bus when we have our own personal vehicle. I have my car parked somewhere here in a walking distance. We take that.” She says excitedly. i look at her with blank expressions.

I just nod my head and follow her all the way to her car in utter silence. Not so far, we hear a siren; and assumes that it is a police car's siren. Crap! “It’s police! What to do now? We will go in jail for murdering two people and we will spend our whole life behind the bars. I Am dead, so dead and the worst is that I Am still a virgin and never kissed someone” I was in shock.

“what the hell are you muttering? Stop panicking and behave like a human. Don’t worry, I will protect you; just get inside the care and stay hidden.” Daphne yells and opens the door of a sleek black BMW and gets to the driver’s seat. I quickly move to the passenger’s seat and toss inside. 

I ask her than, “what’s now? where we will go?” I raised my brows, and the tension seems to increase but she was sitting with a calm demeanor and suddenly she throws me to the backseat, “stay back and stay low, no matter what. I don't what you to get in trouble.”

This bat s**t crazy chick threw me at the back seat, and I fall on my back, breaking it I guess. f**k! it will be a bad ache for life. “How the hell am I supposed to do that? Are we in some kind of f*****g car racing series?" I whelp a cry and adjust myself on the seat, but she yells again.

“I told you to duck down, so do it now. Stay low and you will be fine.” I saw her throwing a fit of rage and I did not bother her with my questions anymore, so I did what she said. I lay on the back seat but my back is hurting badly, I guess it’s injured. Great senorita! i have a broken back now.

She is driving so fast like the car is talking with the wind, but I still lying and holding on to the seat. Suddenly, she slams on brake hard and I fall down from the impact. “Ahh!” I cry in pain and she turns her face back to look over me.

She frowns and offers her hand to me, “Take my hand, I told you to stay low.” 

I sit back on the seat with her help, “I think you have injured your back!” said Daphne.

I looked at her with disbelieve, “you think? My back is seriously injured, and it's because of you.” I yell at her. “Oh crap! It’s hurt, badly. I guess I can’t walk anymore. I Am disabled now!”

“You don’t have to cry every time, I thought you're a big girl now. Just lay down here and I will drive carefully now. Okay!” she shows concern, and I nod my head. She starts the engine and drives again, and soon I drifted to sleep. It’s been the whole night that I took a wink of sleep.

After sometime, the girl named Daphne wakes me up, “Eira, we have reached the safe house. Come out now.” I open my eyes and sleep still dripping from them. 

I say nothing to her and came out from the car. My stomach was growling in hunger and making grumbling noises, “Ah! Shut it” 

We get inside the motel, which looks very comfortable. Daphne went to the reception for interrogation and I admire the small but a well-maintained lobby of the motel. Daphne approaches me and gesture to follow her. I roll my eyes internally and walk in the direction Daphne went, as if I have any option. Daphne opens the door, and the room was really nice, not very luxurious but still comfortable to spend the night. She thanked the bell boy and put my bag on a small couch.

“Go, and get fresh, I will order some food for us. You must be hungry?” she asks me with a warmest smile. I went to the washroom and it was a nice bathroom with a tub. So I took a shower. I am almost done when I hear a knock on the door, it’s Daphne. “hey the food is still hot, come out faster.’

I wipe myself with a towel and wear another pair of clothes that I bought with me. They are not that good, but something is better than nothing. I put my old clothes back into my bag and went to the room. The aroma filled in my nostrils and my stomach made a terrible sound. Daphne grins and asks me to sit on the couch. “Here, have noodles and pasta. I hope you like it.”

I eat noodles as I was starving. She keeps looking at me; and I felt awkward, so I ate a little slowly, maybe she had never seen an animal having its food. While eating, I remember that Daphne called me with a different name, “can I ask you something?” I ask her.

She nodded simply as it stuffed her mouth with the pasta. “What did you call me earlier? When we were in the car?” she stops eating and looked at me. She is lost in a trance, I guess, as she was trying to remember something. Great, she is dyslexic, I guess.

She clears her throat and said, “Silver, I am sorry, I have to tell you something very important.” I look at her, “I am listening.”

She sighs and said, “This is not the first time I followed you or save you from something. I always kept my eyes on you, since you were in an orphanage and till this day.” My jaw hits the floor (sarcasm).

“Why? That means you knew. .. I mean you were there.. How?” I babbled at her, waiting for her to say something.

“Because I am your GOD MOTHER
