Being torn apart in turmoil, we set off to a thick forest. We decided to

stay there overnight. Soon, the clock struck midnight. I saw Edward,

sleeping soundly beside a fire pit. Cold night breeze swept passed my

face gracefully. The hooting of owls was the only sound that made the
place lively. I lifted my head up and glimpsed at the majestic beauty of

the sky. All these sceneries brought back my deeply hidden unraveled

memories of Deborah. We loved each other so madly. Our lives were

meant to be beautiful. However, we broke up six months ago just
because of the fact that I was so obsessed with my work. No matter how

much I coaxed her, she rejected me. She even got married to another

man. The animosity against her for deleting me from her memory raged
within me.

I surveyed the spot and soon zipped open my backpack. I budged a
fridge-like box and injected a green fluid within me. Moments later,

brown hairs grew all over my body and my mouth jutted prominently.

From the corner of my eyes, I saw Edward, jolting up. On seeing me, in

outrage, he gaspingly said, “So, you’re the third person”. I gave him a
malicious smirk. I won the battle for Transeo Pectineum.

Soon, a nurse stalks into my ward and my thoughts of the past comes to

an end. Giving me some medicines, she strides off the ward. My eyes
once again fall upon my abominable physical appearance. Indeed, my

appalling appearance was because of the serum that altered the DNA of

my cells. I do know about the adverse effects of injecting the serum to
me yet, the determination of killing Deborah blindfolded me of my

indiscriminate act. I could still not kill Deborah. I do not want to harm her

anymore. I want to live the rest of my live as a half-dead human being
with no vengeance in my heart. Looking outside the window, I count my

last days which will soon come to an end.
