Chapter 59 Focus on the goal
Susan wondered why they were kissing. Amelia was in the mountains when the others decided to marry Jude. She couldn't possibly know about the decision. Were they having a relationship on our backs? Were they cheating on us? A lot of questions came to her mind.
As Susan's mind raced with questions, she couldn't shake the feeling of betrayal that gnawed at her gut. Had Jude been unfaithful to her, carrying on a secret relationship with Amelia behind her back? The thought sent a surge of anger coursing through her veins, mingled with a sense of hurt and confusion.
But as she looked into Amelia's eyes, Susan saw only sincerity and confusion reflected back at her. There was no trace of guilt or deception in her gaze, only genuine concern for her well-being. Could it be possible that Amelia was just as unaware of the situation as Susan was?
With a heavy sigh, Susan pushed aside her doubts and fears, reminding herself that now was not the time for accusations or assumptions. They were both in a precarious situation, trapped in a mysterious cave with more questions than answers. Their priority should be finding a way out and reuniting with the others, not dwelling on suspicions and insecurities.
"Amelia,"@@@@
Susan began, her voice soft but firm.
"We need to focus on getting out of here. Whatever happened between you and Jude... we'll deal with it later. Right now, we need to stick together and find a way back to safety."
Amelia extended her hand towards Susan like she was inviting Susan to join them. 'In your dreams girl'. Susan thought to herself. But unexpectedly her body moved towards Amelia. Susan felt that she didn't have control over her own body.
As Susan's body moved closer to Amelia, she felt a strange sensation coursing through her veins, as if some invisible force were pulling her towards her friend. Panic surged within her, mingling with the confusion and fear that already clouded her mind.
"Amelia, stop this right now. We need to go back to the shelter, everyone is worried about us. It's too dangerous to wait because if they come Looking for us, there is no surety that they will get here alive."
Amelia kissed her lips so Susan couldn't talk anymore. In the middle of it Susan saw Jude's face. He was holding an evil smile. She remembered the things that happened down the pyramid.
As Susan felt Amelia's lips press against hers, a sense of foreboding washed over her. In that fleeting moment, amidst the haze of desire and confusion, she caught a glimpse of Jude's sinister visage, his malevolent grin sending a shiver down her spine.
Suddenly, everything clicked into place. The illusions, the manipulations, the twisted machinations of the island's sinister forces, all of it became painfully clear to Susan in that instant of clarity. She realized that she was being ensnared in a web of deceit, a pawn in a game whose rules she could scarcely comprehend.
With a surge of defiance, Susan pushed herself away from Amelia, breaking free from her grasp. She cast a steely gaze at Jude's mocking expression, her resolve hardening with each passing moment.
"No more,"
she declared, her voice trembling with a mixture of fear and determination.
"I won't be a puppet in your twisted games any longer. I came here to find someone. I want to take them back to my family. Whatever you may do to trick me won't work. I'm going back as soon as I find her. I'll find a way to break this hypothesis."
She wanted to turn around but she couldn't. Her body didn't let her move. She realized it's the second face of it...
