My Serial Killer (Chapter 1) by Adnan Essam (pocket ebook reader .TXT) 📖

what's my dad gonna do when I tell him how the two of you attempted to sexually assault me" She threatened them.

They both dropped their jaws and let go of her quickly.

"Good boys, now, stay right there"

They both froze in their spot, now they know they can't touch her because if they do, she will have their fingerprints on her and will sue them.

She walked to Max who was still dizzy from the blow, not surprising since Kira had a lot of books packed in her school bag. She crouched down and slammed his face and pressed it against the ground, she then sat on his crotch, placing her pen on his neck. She leaned closer and whispered in his left ear.

"If I see one more scratch on him ... I will kill you!"  Her eyes were widened, almost like a wildcat, staring at her prey and for some reason, she smiles but it was more of a wicked smile.

Max couldn't speak, he was shocked and scared. This isn't Kira, this is not the girl he fell in love with nor is she the girl he dreamt of. He felt like he was being held by a psychopath. Fear knew his way to Max's heart upon seeing that cold look on Kira's face.

"Good, glad we've reached an agreement" She pushed herself up and picked her bag. "Oh, almost forgot" - She glared at Max by her right shoulder with the same cold look - "If anyone finds out about what happened today, there will be some major consequences" And with that she walked off.

Kira went back home. She opened the door and-...

"KIRAAAAAAAAA!!!" - Smith ran to her for a hug but, yet again got ignored.

He sat by a corner like a child who just lost his lollipop, mumbling and complaining to himself like a five years old kid - "My daughter doesn't love me anymore, I wanna die" **;-;**. Mike passed by with a glass of water as he saw his dad like that - "How humiliating"  -"Fuck you" - Smith replied.

Meanwhile, Kira was sitting in her room, thinking about Leo and how she could help him. She was also shocked about what she did with Max, yes, she hit him and threatened him but she was so scared, she doesn't know how or why she did that all she knew was that she couldn't bear the thought of Leo getting harmed again.

On the next day, Kira went to school as usual. Leo didn't show up for the second time. She spent her day at school as usual and decided to check on Leo again. She went to the same spot to watch him. She saw him climbing on a metal ladder, heading up to one of the windows of that old building he lives next to.

He was barely able to climb up with just his left hand and left leg. His right leg was still injured since the incident with Kira and his right arm is all bruised due to the beat up he took from Max and his friends, however, he still managed to reach that window, he put some food on a piece of paper on some birds' nest to feed the baby birds. He then climbed down and sat back to the wall, reading his notes and minding his own business.

Kira spent some time there and was late as she didn't pay attention to the time but then she decided to take a bus back home. Right then one of her father's colleagues saw her. When he returned to the station and had a conversation with Smith he told him he saw Kira by that alley and he should tell her to be careful around it as bad people usually hang out there.

Kira returned back home but this time her father was waiting for her with a serious expression.

"Where were you?" - Asked Smith.

"We had some extra lessons and I had to take them" - Kira Replied.

"You're lying" - Smith was pissed, it was the first time she's lied to him.

"No, I'm not lying, and why are you questioning me?" 

"Don't talk to me like that, I'm your father and I'm worried about you" 

"I DON"T NEED ANYONE TO WORRY ABOUT ME, FOR GOD SAKE PEOPLE LEAVE ME ALON-.." - Kira Yelled back in anger.

Smith only felt his hand when it slapped Kira's left cheek. Kira felt the slap then looked back to her father, shocked by the fact that he just slapped her for the first time. At that moment, Smith knew he crossed the line by slapping his precious daughter and he should have been wiser.

She ran upstairs, sobbing, she quickly locked her room and dropped herself on her bed. Smith tried to catch up but she closed the door to his face.

Smith waited in the living room with Mia. hoping Kira will calm, for them to have a civilized discussion until ... they heard a sound outside the house, Smith opened the door and check it out and then he saw Kira running away.

"KIRA!" - He quickly grabbed his coat and tried to catch up to her. But, he lost track of her already.

Kira was walking down the street and it was after midnight already, her feet took her to the main street by the alleyway where Leo lives until some bulky guy encountered her, he seemed high and was holding a knife in his hand.

Kira was so scared she didn't know what to do. He walked to her and grabbed her arm.

"Come on, we're gonna have some fun together, hehe" - He tried to pull her.

Kira screamed - "Help! Somebody! HELP!" - she was too scared to think straight.

"Shut up, I'm warning you!. SHUT THE FUCK UP!" - He got sick of it and stabbed her in the stomach. Right then Leo heard the screams and rushed outside. He saw Kira laying there with a blood pool around her. He quickly took off his shirt, ripped it and tied it up around the wound.

Kira's phone rang as her father was calling her. Leo grabbed the phone and sent him a message of their address while applying pressure on the wound.

The wound had to be cleaned up but Leo couldn't leave Kira like that. They need help, Leo can't shout either. He applied pressure with his left hand and grabbed a stone from the alley beside him. He tossed it to the bar's window with all his force.

The window broke as soon as the stone came in contact with it. The owner came out totally pissed - "WHAT THE FUC-..." - he halted upon seeing Leo and Kira on the ground.

Leo made a gesture to him for a bottle of alcohol. The owner ran back to the bar while calling 911 for an ambulance. He ran back to them with a bottle of whiskey and poured some on the wound. Kira screamed due to the pain and stings caused by the alcohol, her body was bending right and left, her torso moved up due to the excessive pain.

**Leo had flashbacks of how his mum was dying and he couldn't do anything about. A deja vu of the same situation happening with Kira, he felt so powerless**

Kira's breath went slower and slower until her heart stopped beating. Leo panicked. He gestured the bar owner to apply pressure on the wound while he placed both his palms on Kira's chest, trying to perform CPR.

He pressed down hard enough to make her chest move inward about 1.5 to 2 inches and he kept repeating it over and over again. He then connected his lips to hers trying to blow some air into her lungs, over and over again until she gasped and her heart beat again.

And finally, the ambulance arrived. They took Kira in and that's when her father arrived.

"Oh God!" - Smith panicked. He quickly got in the ambulance, scared to death for his daughter's life.

Leo couldn't get in the ambulance, they didn't let him and he didn't know the way to the hospital.

He decided to ask the school's staff in the morning.

Meanwhile, the hospital staff took care of Kira as best as they could but there was bad news. She lost too much blood and she needs blood transfusion or else she'll die in a few days.

Her father raged - "How is it possible a hospital like this can't PERFORM a simple blood transfusion?!!!"

"Sir, please calm down. Your daughter's blood type is "O" negative and it's very rare. I'm afraid there's nothing else we can do unless you have a donor who's ready to do the blood transfusion but it has to be "O" negative" - The doctor explained.

Smith was in a very bad shape, watching his daughter connected to all of these medical devices, helpless there while he could do nothing to save her.

On the next morning, Smith went back to work to ask if any of his colleagues is "O" negative but unfortunately he wasn't lucky enough.

Mia did the same but still no luck. She passed by Kira's school and went to the director's office. She ran out of options. She panicked every time she thought of how her daughter will die like that.

The director was understanding and made an immediate announcement for all the students and school staff to gather outside in the main yard.

He explained the situation to them and requested if any of them is "O" negative. The students all looked at each other and started whispering, seems like none of them is "O" negative. Mia fell on her knees, sobbing as she completely lost hope of saving her daughter until she found Leo standing in from of her with a grin on his face, holding a note with his left hand and his right hand extended to Mia as a way to offer her help.

Mia looked at the note and it said - "I'm "O" negative. Don't cry" - tears poured down her cheeks as her prayers were finally heard and now there's a new hope for her daughter's survival. She wrapped her palms around Leo's hand - "Thank you, thank you, thank you".
