141 Red Pill (1/2)

Inside the black car, Tereza sat on the back seat while holding a few documents. The car was driving fast to a certain destination that Tereza asked the driver. Adjusting her legs, she viewed the city scenery beside her, she felt nothing.

When the car was going into a tunnel, she saw her reflection on the window. Short bob hair, red lips, red-wine woman suit which she wore, and her flower pendant on her neck. She held her pendant with her left hand and she could feel the flower spirits words who tried to console her. She snorted and ignored them, 'They are also useless.'

Tereza who loved dresses and long hair was gone. She wasn't like the beautiful goddess that people admired again, she was the beautiful ferocious demonic that everyone fear. One mistake pricked her annoying feeling, she would become a ticking bomb, exploding and destroying some people's lives.

She looked at her new phone, which she ordered from one of the servants to bring a new replacement an hour ago. She inserted her former SIM card, turning the phone on, searching for the message icon, and trying to text to someone. But before she could write something, a sudden phone call came through to the line, it was Hikaru. She picked up the call, brought it to her right ear. ”What is it?” She asked flatly.

{Big Sis, where are you? Do you know you still have a conference this afternoon, right? Mr. Rei Ishii and others are waiting for your attending confirmation. Didn't you read their e-mail?}

”I read it. I said I will attend a little bit later than usual because I still have a matter to finish. Tell them to proceed the grand opening for Haresora City and introduce the Flower Wisdom Park first without me.”

{A-Alright. Do you still have another message that I need to tell them?}

She nodded slightly, ”Tell them to put minimum and selective to the reporter questions. Especially about me or my husband. It means no private question and only took a question that has related to the projects.”

{Don't worry, Big Sis. They know what they're doing. Also Mr. Jo Miura and Mr. Kei Ono have a message for you, they said, you don't have to push yourself too hard.} Hikaru stated it with a soft voice. Tereza fell silence when she listened to him. He continued, {Big Sis, I also want to say the same to you. You've been working nonstop since Mr. Han...}

Stopping his explanation, she said, ”Hikaru, don't say any words or else I will make your mouth shut up directly.” With intimidated tone. She didn't want to hear his next statement. She had enough with his and people preaching, she knew already so please not to remind her again.

Hikaru sighed from the other side of the phone. He also felt mournful, but what could he do? He couldn't mend her broken heart. He could only support big sis by cheering her up with words, helping her managing Appeal company, and other things he could do within his ability. But, was it enough? No. In fact, it was useless to Tereza.

{Big Sis, I just want to tell-}

Tut...tut...tut...

Tereza cut his phone call. Her eyes were sharp, squinting her eyes looking at building in front of her. It was XC Prison.The car was parked in front of the building. She went out from it, striding her legs to the entrance, she showed her ID card to the guard. He nodded and guided her to the special prison section in the basement.

When she stepped in, she could hear a lot of screaming surrounded her. Women, men were in the same place, but in different cells. Tereza could hear various shouted, ”Let me out! Let me out!”

”I'm not crazy!! She was the one who kills him not me!!”

”Momma! Momma! Aghh! Dad you!! Agh!!”

”Help! Help! wu...wu...wu...”
