A teachers affair
Page 51Esmae’s POV
I woke up to a rustling sound. I felt the bed for Derek but, he wasn’t there, so I immediately got up and looked around.
“Derek?”
No response.
I started to panic.
”Derek!”
I shouted.
Suddenly the door opened.
And Derek appeared.
”Baby, I’m right here.”
I wrapped my arms around him.
”where were you? I thought..”
”Shhh, baby. I’m right here.”
”Never do that again!”
.
.
.
I suddenly woke up from my dream and heard the same rumbling sounds, only so much louder.
I emerged from the bed.
I realized that Derek wasn’t with me.
”Derek?”
no response.
I started running out the bedroom door.
”DEREK!”
I screamed.
I roamed the hall to find blood everywhere.
Then Derek’s body on the
ground.
”Derek! What happened?!?”
i asked as I saw all the stab wounds in him.
There were at least 3.
I immediately put pressure on his wounds to stop the bleeding.
He reached his hands to my face.
I started to cry.
”I’m sorry b-baby.”
He whispers.
”No,no....you do not get to do that! You don’t get to say goodbye because you are going to be okay. Do you understand me Derek. You don’t get to say goodbye!”
