That last date
I am on my couch watching a movie , drinking a hot coffee and waiting for her call. She has not been calling me for the last couple of days. Now I am worried. My mind is puzzled. I am trying my hardest to not act weird because she did it many times before. Suddenly my phone rings and it was her.
she said," I just called you to say that I am done with this relationship. It doesn't work for me. So it would be better for you that we should break up."
I am stunned. Everything was good between us. Maybe it is just me who thinks that way. I ask her why and she cut my call. I call back and my number is on black list now.
Three months have passed. I am moved on(maybe,it was my first relationship). But I started to hate women. How beautiful this world can be if there are no women. One night I decided to go to some club and drink. Now I am in there , ordering vodka. Suddenly a beautiful girl (so beautiful) comes to me.
She said ,"hey, I am Riya ,you are Sam, aren't you?....I told you that I definitely recognise you at our first meeting."
I hate these girls. I started to date random girls on various sites. But they ended up because somewhere in my heart there is hatred.
I just wanted to say,"who Same ,are you kidding me, I don't know you darling."
But I don't and it is just because of her innocence. Her beauty attracts me. I couldn't say no. I became her Sam for tonight. I know it sounds wrong but I need someone in my life at this time. I thought we would chat a little and then I would tell her my real name.
She sits beside me. We talk. She is very comfortable around me. I am totally impressed by the way she acts. I have found my new innocent target.
We chat a little bit. Then she begins asking me some personal questions related to Sam(the real one). I hesitated but I don't want her to start to doubt me. I try my best because this is not my first time. She is not my first target.
We are drunk. Not much but drunk. Vodka doesn't work on me. I am conscious. We decide to go somewhere else. Now I approached her to go somewhere else with me where only two of us are present.
We are now in my car. On the way she said," you look different in pictures. You are very handsome in person. You haven't brought my gift. Where is it?." I haven't any idea about gifts. I think now is the time I should tell her reality.
But I don't . I don't want to ruin this night.
We go to my farmhouse. It is so dark,stars are blinking,and the moon is in his full mood and also me. On the way she asked me about messages and I haven't any idea what they were. Now I am thinking maybe she feels something…. something wrong. Then I say to myself if she doesn't feel safe she won't come with me. Maybe I am overthinking.
Suddenly she said," I don't know but I am not feeling well. Something bad is about to happen."
I said," but why? Are you ok? Maybe you have drunk out of your capacity, that's why this is happening to you."
She seems convinced. I park my car and we come outside. We go to the main gate. I have keys and I open the door. My farmhouse is cool. I mean it looks cool inside because it is one of my choices. I spend a lot of time here. We both enter.
She notices a wall ,a blue coloured beautiful wall with pictures of swans. My ex girlfriend liked swans. I painted this for her. Yes you are thinking right, I am an artist. I look at her and she just stops walking.
She said ," how do you know that I like swans?....I have never told you this. And how do you know my favourite colour?"
I am surprised. How can it be such a coincidence?. She also likes the same colour and the same bird. How?
I asked her," is it a prank?"
She replied," tell me now. You are testing my patience."
I said," hey stop yelling. It can be a coincidence. Relax. My ex girlfriend liked it so I had done this for her. It is just a silly coincidence, nothing much."
I don't want her to doubt me.
Then she goes to the kitchen that is open and attached to the hall. She opens the fridge and takes a bottle of water and drinks. I stand here and look at her.
After that she said," I have an urgent call. Can I receive it?....I mean I need space."
I replied," of course" and went outside.
After 10 minutes she comes outside and yells," where is your fucking phone? You are making me fool. I called you. You are not Sam. You asshole. Since when have you been stalking me? That's why you know about my favourite colour. I am going to call the police. You lair."
Oh fuck. She has recognised me. I should have told her. Then I said to her," hey I am sorry I just wanted to tell you but I couldn't. I thought you would not allow me to be your friend. And I am a nice guy, you can trust me. Really sorry Riya."
She is in rage. She doesn't want to listen to me. She is calling someone. And I know it is Sam...real Sam. She talked to him for 10 minutes. I am standing in front of her looking at her.
I said again," hey Riya I am really sorry if you want to go you can but don't include police. I will even drop you wherever you want."
She replied," I can go by myself. And don't think I left you like this . I will complain against you. "
After that she goes outside the farmhouse. And I can not do anything . I didn't want to hurt her. She is really a nice girl. I should have told her.
Next morning I am waiting for the police. I definitely know she would tell them. I switch on the TV. There is a news channel. I hate news but I don't change the channel because I am too lazy in the mornings. A woman anchor is telling a story about a girl. She is saying that she was 24. She is being murdered. Police found her dead body near my farmhouse and her name was Riya.
I am shivering right now. How? Was it Sam? I should have stopped her. I should not have let her go. But now I can not go to the police because then I will become their first suspect.
Really sorry Riya.
The end.
