"I was the one who had sent you that picture. It was all my mistake. I had never imagined a situation like this.",
"Sigh"
"Believe me I had no connection with your mother and that hitman.", Asher explained this to her.
"And your presence here is also a coincidence. Am I right?", Zoa asked.
"I know that it's hard to believe but it's true. If I wanted, I could keep it a secret…"
"But you didn't because you want to make a deal with me, Dr. Blake. Am I right? You thought that I should play a double game.", Zoa pushed him away and moved in the direction of the burned house.
"I never intended to do any harm. I never wanted this.", Asher shouted. But Zoa didn't listen to him. She kept moving.
Asher ran and followed her. "Give me a chance.", Asher shouted.
"A chance? For what?", Zoa turned and asked.
"To prove that I had no connection with your mother and anyone else that intended to harm you. I want to see you successful not dead.", Asher spoke.
"You want to see me successful. I see. Then take me back to your cottage. It's chilly outside.", Zoa demanded.
Asher guided her back to the cottage. The cottage was messy as they had left it. There was blood everywhere and this place stank with the blood's smell.
"Is there a market nearby?", Zoa asked.
"No, it'll take at least one hour to reach one. But I can manage.", Asher told her.
"Fine, here is the money and a list of things I want. Take your time.", Zoa handed a list and cash to him. Zoa was penniless but she was using that dead hitman money.
Asher took the list and placed it in her shirt's pocket. He was wearing an old shirt of his father. He could only find this shirt and a spare pants in that cottage. This was an old cottage.
Asher's family didn't live there. They only came here during his summer vacation, but they started to come here often after Asher's father's degrading health. He wanted to spend more time with his family away from the city.
It was raining outside so Asher took an umbrella with him as well. Zoa sat alone in the dim light of the cottage. Zoa couldn't bear this smell. She found an old detergent and a mop to clean the floor.
Zoa was almost finished with her work when Asher returned. Zoa had cleaned the house, and she was eating flowers. She had plucked those flowers from the outside.
Asher grabbed her hand and threw the flowers. "Are you in your senses?", He asked.
"No, I'm hungry.", Zoa responded.
"These things could be poisonous.", Asher complained.
"That's better than. Nobody's hand will be dirty with my blood. I'll take my own life.", Zoa said this casually and checked things.
Zoa's list contained the following items:
1-Bandages
2-Dressings
3-Sleeping pills
4-Snacks
5-Cup noodles
6-A blue shirt and black pants(M Size)
7-A body wash
8-A shampoo
9-Batteries and charger
But the things Asher bought were:
1-Bandages
2- Dressings
3-Sleeping pills
4-Snacks
5-Cup noodles
6-A blue shirt and black pants
7-A body wash
8-A shampoo
9-Batteries and charger
He had bought all those things mentioned in the list with some extra items as well:
1-A red very sexy and obscene night gown
2-C*nd*mns
3-A perfume
4-A lotion
5-A wine
"I had never asked for these things.", Zoa shouted.
"I thought that we were going to make up.", Asher replied innocently.
"Making up? Are you in your right mind? You spent my money to buy all of those things. I'll kill you.", Zoa yelled at him.
"I had lost my card, and my phone is broken as well. But I'll pay you with my body.", Asher suggested.
"I don't want the degenerate body of a penniless and double gamer doctor with a sh*tty tongue like his body.", Zoa shouted at him and threw all the useless stuff out of the window.
The useless stuff was the nightgown, lotion, perfume, and of course c***
Zoa took the clothes, body wash, and shampoo and went to the washroom. She also took the hitman bag with her which contained the gun, knife, snacks, money, and phone.
Zoa was standing naked under the running shower having an extensional crisis. "Why am I back here? I could have gone somewhere as well?", Zoa asked herself.
"I'm here because I was afraid that there were some other hitmen also outside. But I had sent them my dead pictures. It is sure that now there is no one out."
"But what if Asher is also on my mother's side?"
"Then I'm here to undercover the truth and keep him on my side."
"But what will I gain by keeping him on my side."
Zoa was having a meeting with her inner self. She finally decided to give that strange man a chance. She looked at her image in the mirror and said,
"Fine, I'll give him a chance. If he will not do anything perverted. I'm already exhausted. I'll talk to him properly."
Zoa was dressed properly and promised herself to have a proper conversation with Asher before unlocking the washroom door.
"I think we need to ta..", Zoa announced as she came out of the shower. Her hair was covered in the towel. She had found there.
She immediately changed her mind to have any conversation or dialogue with him after seeing him like that.
