《A festering world》Prologue
Advertisement
I was in my bed listening to my music, It was nearly 5 PM, I would have to take my sister out of school and but I received a message from my childhood friend, Sarah, she was my neighbor when we were young, we were friends since the age of 6 but she had to move out of the city when we were 12. She came back 5 years later. When before she was a normal 12 years old girl with strawberry blond hair and dark brown eyes, she was now completely red-haired and a lot more mature, she never told me what she doing overseas but I can guess that it was not easy. After nostalgically remembering these moments, I checked her message, she said she saw my girlfriend, Marie, going to a hotel with a guy, she sent me a picture and indeed, this was her, I also recognized the guy with her.
His name was Alexandre de Vivier, her French correspondent, she also sent me a message earlier, saying she was going to the library with him to study. I'm not hot-headed, I was not going to go on a crusade, I needed to be more subtle, I sent her message to say that I was on my way to the library.
I took another road so that I can see her get out of the hotel and I saw her, she hurried herself to reach the library before me, this was not going to happen if she arrives first then she could say that Sarah was lying and modified the photograph, My (ex?)girlfriend and I know that Sarah was a bit jealous of my relationship with Marie so she could use this argument, It won't work since I trust Sarah more than Marie but I won't say that to her since she can be hysterical when flustered.

I arrived at the entrance of the library, I looked for her in the case that Sarah was indeed lying but she was not here, so Sarah was truthful and Marie really cheated on me. I saw them at the corner of the street so I hid behind the library door, to surprise them.
They reached the door and got in the library, their clothes were a bit messy, they must have dressed in a hurry, I got out of my hiding spot and when they saw me they were startled, Alexandre tried to stay natural but I could sense the discomfort in his voice:
" Hey, John how are you doing?"
"Hi Alexandre, I was doing fine but something unexpected happened."
"Something happened? Are you alright?" Was it genuine concern I saw on her face or was it only a facade?
"Yeah something happened Marie, Sarah sent me a message saying she saw you and Alexandre going to a hotel together."
"Sarah? John, I know you trust her a lot but she always was jealous of our relationship, she lied to you."
"She also sent a picture of you two" I showed her the photograph "Furthermore, you and Alexandre have disheveled clothes and are sweaty, which mean you dressed rapidly, then got out of the hotel and rushed here to arrive before me, so, what do you have to say for your defense, Marie?"
She widened her eyes at my explications and opened her mouth but before she could say anything a blue box appeared in front of us.

Two imposing guards stationed at the entrance saluted as she passed by, stopping before the foot of a raised dais. “My Lady.” She reverently said, bowing deeply to the woman sitting on the throne. Eyes lazily opened and a smirk slowly forming on her tinted lips. “So it's time.” ••••• How does one act when luck granted power unimaginable. To rule? Become rich? Murder?
