Chapter 162: Heartfelt words 3
"Yes, but I will take just four pieces. The rest, I want you to share it amongst the kids playing at the park over there" Maijune said and removed the money in her pocket to give to the man.
''You are quite a nice person, Miss'' the man said as he took the money from Maijune and added ''but do you really want to disappear and leave this body?''
Maijune looked at him and frowned ''what do you mean?''
''I'm talking about you and those other three girls that share this body. You are clearly the smartest one and deserve this body more than anyone else. So, why do you want to give it away?'' the man said.
''Who are you and how do you know about me?'' Maijune asked seriously and the man laughed.
''I am someone who can make sure that this body belongs to you. I can take away those three girls that compete with you. That way you will be able to spend the rest of your life peacefully and be by the side of the man you love. You must be curious about who I am, right?'' the man said and removed a card from his pocket.
''Here, if you are curious about what I can do, then visit me some time. Oh, your candy floss. It must be for them, seeing that you are buying four'' the man said and laughed eerily before pulling the bicycle truck to the park where the children were playing.
Maijune stood at the same spot for a long time until she could no longer see the man and his track. She looked at the candy floss in her hands and imagery figures of Mai, June and August appeared beside her.
''Who is that man? Do you know him?'' June asked and folded her arms.
''I don't know him'' Maijune said.
''Then, how did he know about us? Is he a psychic?'' August Maijune asked.
''He is not a psychic. He is just someone who must have known us for a while. From his words, he must have paid attention to us to know about our condition. That man can't be trusted'' Mai said coldly and her eyes darkened.
''Maijune, are you going to meet him?'' August Maijune asked.
''Why? Are you afraid that I might go and see him and get rid of you? Don't worry, I don't have such dark thoughts'' Maijune said calmly and looked at the candy floss 'I just lost my appetite'' Maijune said and saw a trash can at a distance. She went to it and was about to toss the candy floss away when she saw a child crying and stopped.
The little boy looked at the candy floss in Maijune's hand. Maijune walked to him and handed the four candy floss to him and the boy took it and said to her ''big sister, thank you''
Maijune smiled and nodded her head before walking away.
''Maijune, be careful and don't get convinced by whatever nonsense that man spouted just now'' June said as they walked together. Maijune ignored her and went to sit on a bench at the park. The others also sat with her.
''We made a promise to let receive treatment and become one. If you break that promise I will never forgive you'' Mai warned Maijune.
''Shut up, Mai. I am not in the mood to argue with you'' Maijune said.
''You are wavering you bitch'' Mai said and malice flash in the eyes of Maijune. She turned swiftly and said to Mai.
''Why? Can't I waiver? You think I am so filial like you all? What exactly can August Maijune do for herself that makes you all so confident to enough to fuse into one with her? Look at her? She can't even take care of herself properly without us'' Maijune said looking at August.
''You are wrong. I can take care of myself. Have you ever asked me if I could handle the things that you three are keeping away from me?'' August asked and they all kept quite.
''You people have always treated me as if I was so fragile that I could break at the least provocation. The way I have become is all because of you. It is the way you all tried to keep me away from all the memories that are important to us. To me. Why don't you ever trust that I can handle whatever you three are keeping from me?'' August asked.
''We were trying to protect you, August. The past is cruel and we love you too much to let you go through all that pain yourself'' June said.
''Is that why you prefer to seduce men and play around trying to forget everything that is eating you up?'' August asked sounding sarcastic.
''Hey, I take offense to that. I didn't all that for you. I was the only one who thought of releasing the pent up stress by playing with handsome men but I never went overboard even when I played with them. Aaron Saint was the first man we all slept with. You ungrateful bitches should thank me because unlike someone here, I don't make bombs and think about how to make poison or kill someone everyday'' June said throwing the blame at Mai and Maijune.
''Wow, you little pervert. How dare you look down on my talent? Thanks to me you all are still alive. I have been developing antidotes all the time because God knows what kind of situation you will find yourself in at any time''
''Did you just throw subtle shade at me Mai August June?'' Maijune asked sarcastically.
''Well, it seems that you are not so dumb after all'' Mai added and the argument heated up. While the girls bickered, only one person could be see by passersby and they found the situation awkward and scary. Some even thought the girl had a mental problem since she was sitting in front of a hospital.
''Wow, look at you psychopath calling me dumb'' Maijune retorted.
''Psycho? How dare you call me a psycho, you monster?'' Mai said back.
''Monster? Well, I am a monster who killed more than 100 men just to save your ass'' Maijune said.
''You didn't save my ass. I am perfectly able to save my ass. If you are talking about the people you saved, then that should be them and not me'' Mai said hurriedly.
''But, you are the one who almost got us killed when you tried to commit suicide'' August Maijune said.
''That's right. And you were the one who set father's laboratory on fire that year'' June added and looked at Maijune.
''That was because Lorca wanted to steal all the tests and research findings about our condition. You bunch of ungrateful bitches want to throw me under the bus?'' Maijune said and looked at them.
''Now that we are all letting the cat out of the bag, how about we find out if our little Missy hear has the guts to hear the entire truth and be able to deal with it?'' June said making the others turn quiet.
''The truth? Are you three willing to share all your memories with me?'' August Maijune asked curiously.
''Yes, but the question is can you handle the truth?'' Maijune turned to look at August Maijune. August Maijune turned quite.
''See? She is wavering. She doesn't have the guts. I told you. August Maijune isn't August Maijune without us'' Maijune said.
''Let's forget it then'' Mai added.
''No'' August Maijune spoke out. I can handle it. I have been wanting to know the truth about what you three are keeping away from me and that hasn't changed'' August Maijune added.
''Okay. I will share my memories with you first. If you can handle it then, Mai will share hers with you. June, you are the one holding the truth about the accident involving Aaron Saint. Are you willing to share it with us all?'' Maijune asked and looked at June.
''That. Do I really have to share it with you all?'' June asked skeptically.
''Well, well. Look who is all talk and no guts then? I knew you were hiding the truth from us about that accident. Tell us. How did we meet Aaron Saint?'' Mai asked.
''We met when Lorca asked Maijune to kill Aaron Saint. Maijune thought she could save mom and dad by doing what Lorca wanted but our parents were already dead by then. Lorca just hid it from us because he wanted Maijune to kill Aaron Saint'' June said.
''You were asked by Lorca to kill Aaron Saint?'' August Maijune asked.
''Yes. Why? Can't handle the truth now?'' Maijune looked down on August.
''Go on. I want to know everything'' August Maijune said.
''Well, Maijune started stalking Aaron Saint and even found out where Liyah Myers lived back when they were still together. Aaron Saint went to the club after catching Josh Saint together with Liyah Myers. Maijune hate being in clubs and that was when I took over. I followed Aaron Saint to the club and watched at a distance as he drowned himself in liquor. When he was intoxicated and got up to leave, I followed him. He got down from an interception to vomit. That time, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't make Maijune to appear so I took the gun and aimed it at Aaron Saint when he got back into the car. I was so scared that I didn't noticed when the gun had fell from my hands to the ground and when I bent down to pick it, the car came crashing on me at full speed''
''Stop it, that's enough. I don't want to hear any more of it'' August Maijune screamed as headache took over her. She vaguely saw Aaron Saint running towards her as her body collapsed on the bench
