The Woman From Hell

I had been to Susan's apartment before, and it could be said that I knew my way around this time.

I put the cradle somewhere I could see it then put in a clean underlayer. After that, I put Timothy and Wendy in and started cleaning the house.

No one had lived here for a long time, and the furniture was covered in dust. Just when I was about to change the water in the pail, the doorbell suddenly rang.

I walked over and looked through the peephole. A familiar face came into view.

It was Marius.

I gave it some thought before opening the door anyway.

"Sis Wan, why did you move away without even telling me anything? Is there something wrong with me? Tell me, I can change." Marius was standing at the door with eyes filled with hurt. His voice was trembling when he asked. I lowered my gaze. I did not know where to start.

"It's not because of you." I did not intend to hide anything from Marius. I did not ask him how he found out about this place either. I just said, "You remember how I said that I'm the reason Shannon got hurt, yeah-" Marius interrupted me before I could even finish. "Sis Wan, that's your own guess. There's no proof that you're the one who caused that car accident!"

Marius was really agitated and reached out to grab my shoulder.
