《CRIMSON MOON (SHORT CHAPTERS)》Chapter 14: The Supernatural Investigation Society part 3
Advertisement
Alejandro arrives at the club room, Marjorie is right behind him.
"Alejandro, wait, you got it all wrong…"
"No I don't, I am not stupid...I really thought you were my friend…"
"But I am….it's just that…"
"Stop it...stop lying please….you and the others think I'm crazy...only because I want to know what happened 5 years ago...what happened to our friend Uriel…”
Alejandro grabs his chest; "You think I don't have feelings? Well I do and it hurts to learn the damn truth, that the person I thought of as my only friend only takes pity on me…"
Marjorie is left speechless, Alejandro continues to speak:
"Oh, I bet Aleister and you planned all of it…"
"What?"
"That's right, I bet you two decided that it was fun to play with me...to make me believe that you were my friend...he did it right...he did all of this because he has always hated me…you think that he wants to be my friend?"
"Alejandro…." Marjorie begins to get angry.
"His lackies always beat me up under his orders because I talk to you….don't you think it's strange that I always have bandages? I bet you're also enjoying this...that's right, you and Aleister are…"
(SSLLLAAPPP)
Marjorie slaps Alejandro with force causing him to fall on his back. He looks up and notices Marjorie with tears in her eyes, she has an angry expression and begins to speak:
"Just shut up, you don't know anything about Aleister or me...he's a kind person, he would never do that….you know why you don't have any friends?"
Marjorie points at Alejandro; "Because you're a selfish person...you don't care what others think and you blame others for your mistakes...Aleister always wanted to be friends with you but you never gave him a chance."

Marjorie continues to speak:
"You're so selfish that all you can think about is the supernatural stuff, I tried to understand why but this isn't right...something is wrong with you...you are too hung up in the past…"
Marjorie sheds tears; "Alejandro forget about the past, forget about Uriel...can't you see that you are hurting people like Victoria who lost both of her parents that night...we want to forget...please just come with me and apologize to Aleister…"
Marjorie extends her hand and smiles; "Come now Alejandro, I know that you will be happy with us, just take my hand."
Alejandro stands up and refuses to grab Marjorie's hand:
"I see that you've chosen Aleister, I'd rather be alone than be with someone who wants me dead...I guess this is goodbye. So long Marjorie, we will continue seeing each other in school but you are no longer my friend, in fact, you never were…"
Marjorie lowers her hand and sees Alejandro avoiding her eyes, she lowers her head and turns around.
"Alejandro, you are the only one who is blind.I didn't want to believe Aleister at first but now I see that he was right...Goodbye…"
Marjorie walks away, Alejandro cries as he feels that he lost a part of his life. He enters the room and sees Raul who is packing.
"Wow, that was intense Alejandro."
"Where are you going?"
"I'm done here, the only reason I was here was because I needed a club to be part of...now the Student Council President invited me to be the historian of the student council...and I accepted…"
"So you're joining Aleister as well huh...you traitor, just leave now, you are no longer my friend either.."
Raul grabs his bag and walks to the door, as he passes next to Alejandro he says:

"You're mistaking our relationship, the truth is...we were never friends to begin with…"
Raul leaves, shutting the door. Alejandro, feeling betrayed and with rage, begins to throw stuff around. He destroys the posters and rips the papers as he screams:
"DDDAAAAMMMMNNNN IIIIITTTTT"
Marjorie walks by wiping away the tears off her eyes, she doesn’t look where she is going and bumps into a girl.
“Oh, I’m sorry, I wasn’t looking...”
Marjorie sees that the girl she bumps into was Tiwa. She tries to be friendly:
“Oh, Tiwa was it? I have you for Chemistry right? I...”
“Marjorie Bellerose, I must warn you, the only one who is blind is you...I pity those who choose to be blinded by the truth...”
“Wait, what are you talking about?”
Tiwa begins to walk away as she answers; “That innocent act and that naive personality will one day be your demise...”
Marjorie is left standing not knowing what happened, she begins to walk away once again thinking about Tiwa’s words.
Aleister wearing a bandaid on his cheek walks towards Marjorie, she runs and hugs him:
“You were right all along, sorry for doubting you...”
“It’s okay dear, you know I will always be there for you...”
Aleister hugs her tightly, Marjorie has a calm expression and Alesiter has a sinister smile on his face:
“Come on, let’s go eat something...”
Alejandro is sitting in a corner, the sun is setting as he looks at the clock; “It’s almost time for my shift...I better...”
Alejandro looks at the newspaper that says:
“La Bestia ataca de nuevo...” (The Beast attacks again...)
“That’s right, I almost forgot my mission...I decided to investigate the attacks on Rio Grande City...”
Alejandro becomes optimistic once again and runs towards the door.
(PUUUMM)
Alejandro runs towards his job as he screams:
“I WON’T GIVE UP..”
The door closes and Tiwa is on the other side. She was squished the moment Alejandro ran. Tiwa rubs her nose as she says:
“Ouch, that idiot, I was going to talk to him...”
“HAHAHAHA THAT WAS HILARIOUS” Suma the owl laughs at Tiwa, Tiwa begins to strangle him.
“What’s so funny, you stupid chicken...”
“N-n-nothing, I’m sorry...”
Tiwa sighs with her eyes closed; “Now what?I was going to join the club but he got suspended...”
Tiwa begins to walk away; “Maybe next time...”
Tiwa looks at the room that is a disaster, she begins to pick everything up.
“Man, this is a disaster but I need a club, so might as well clean...”
Tiwa cleans the room with the help of her spirits. Kasumi is looking at her without Tiwa noticing she smiles and thinks:
“Alejandro, maybe there are people who are as crazy as you in the world...”
