207-The Cause Of Her Destruction

Beatrice’s POV:

After that was decided, I waited for Pamela to scatter around so that I could check on Maura. But it

seemed like I wasn't the only one interested in looking after Maura.

Pamela was walking around the restroom, waiting for her to come out so that she could scoop her to

the side before I got to her.

I stood in my spot with a spatula in my hand, but my eyes were on Pamela when the utensils started

banging against each other. The little noise of the wind howling made me think maybe it was a storm,

but that wasn't what it was after all. Among all of it happening, I heard an agonizing howl in the

distance, but the wind and the window clapping subsided that grunt and kept our focus on the physical

attack. The earth started shaking, making US realize it was an earthquake.

The overall scary ambiance shook me to my core.

"Run to the exit!" Pamela yelled at me while knocking on Maura's door at the same time.

I nodded but couldn't stomach leaving the two behind.

However, Maura rushed out, and it seemed like she couldn't clean the tears that were shedding from

her cheeks in haste.

Pamela held her hand and dragged her to the exit while I followed them.

All the customers stood in line on the road, watching the cafe and the trees sway.

The muddy dust from the storm made my heart race in my chest.

We stayed put until the rain started pouring. And that's when the natural disaster stopped causing

havoc.

"That was crazy!'

One of the customers complained.

The storm came out of the blue,’ another one mentioned.

I scouted around and saw Maura wretchedly holding Pamela's hand and looking lost.

"Just like old times,"

The one old lady's tiring sigh was all my attention went. I turned to watch her and noticed how sparkly

the blue of her eye was.

She suddenly turned her gaze to me and fixed it on my face. I swear, I thought she could hear me

speak in my head.

As her stare got intense, I heard someone call for me and break our attention from each other.

"Beatrice!" I heard her again. Upon turning, I came face to face with Reign, who had to put all her force

into stopping before she would land on me.

'"Hey! What brought you here?* I asked Reign, watching Maddox come after her, carrying no umbrella.

Reign's umbrella helped me survive the little rain. The customers have found their way back into the

cafe now that it is all over.

"Can we talk, please?" Reign looked like she had been dealing with some mess, of course, a mess was

standing right behind her, glaring into my face.

The look he was giving me was a clear indication that he wanted to be anywhere but here.

"Sure, let's go inside," I said, walking ahead of her and leading them into the café.

We sat in the comer end of the seats with the window right next to it.

"How are you, Beatrice?" Reign asked with a sad pout on her lips.

"I'm actually very fine here," I said, not wanting her or anybody to feel bad for me.

Huh!" Maddox scoffed, looking outside the window the instant I focused on him.

"I had been meaning to speak to you regarding something personal," she whispered, almost as if she

were hiding it from Maddox too, who noticed it and didn't appreciate it one bit.

"Fine! I'll wait for you in the car.’ Maddox got the hint and got up from his seat. Just before he was

about to leave, he turned and looked my way. Our eyes connected, and I felt like he might be wanting

to talk about something, but then he continued walking away.

The fear I had of being seen with the brothers had slowly withered away. At least if there was a third

person around.

"He is not a bad person. He had just been in a terrible place," Reign rushed to excuse on behalf of

Maddox's craziness.

"I understand, Reign. I have lived with him," I said. ’What brings you here?" I watched her mouth go dry

when the attention was back on her.

"I wanted to speak with you about that nightmare session.* She recalled, making me straighten my

back and rest my elbows on the table. I was wondering when she would bring that up.

"I know you saw the girl in the hoodie, and I'm certain you saw her face too." It was shocking to me that

she knew I had seen way more than what I’d told them.

What compelled you to ask about it now?" I asked, wondering if her life was in danger.

"I just want to be wary of my surroundings. Tell me, Beatrice! Was it somebody I knew?" She asked,

taking deep breaths. I couldn't help but feel bad for her. The answer she is looking for might not leave

her satisfied. In fact, she will be more broken than ever and probably hysterical too.

"Please," she requested when I didn't answer her for a few seconds.

"Yes!’ I nodded with difficulty. It is never easy to inform someone that the one they should trust the most

is going to be the cause of their destruction.

She looked not only shocked but upset, too.

"Who was it?" This time, she clarified that she wanted to know the whole story.

I don't know what kind of chaos it would create, but she deserved to be alarmed by the danger lurking

in the dark shadows for her.

As she fixed her gaze on my face and waited for me to speak, I nodded and mumbled, "It was Dream!

It was your sister," sadly, I had to tell the truth before it was too late.

The look on her face changed from being scared to being depressed.

Her tears told me she wanted it to be anyone but her.
