My Boss Is A Vampire
A N G E L
Anyone can lose their way...
All you need is the courage to walk the unfamiliar a d daunting path again.
For me all you need is to have a job and earn money.
When you earn money that's how your life can be stable.
"Hey young lady! We're not done to you!" I heard the cops said from behind me. I just kept on running and trying to escape them again.
The rain started to drop hardly so I tightened my raincoat as I look for some dark place until I saw somewhere and I headed towards there.
But before I could step there. I saw a boy sitting behind the trash can. He was wearing a raincoat too he must be on the same age as me.
I was about to sit in front of him until I saw what he's doing.
He was petting the cat's hair I can't clearly see but I know that cat was dead. The cat have a big wound on its leg.
I looked at what is he gonna do. My eyes just widened when I saw that cat stood up like nothing happened.
"What did you do?" I asked that boy. He almost jumped out of surprise and he frowned me.
"You take the cat back to life...How could that be possible?" I asked him but he just carried that cat and I suddenly feel nervous.
"Don't tell anyone. "He said and stooded up.
My mind just got confused. Everyone knows that only vampires can do this thing... If I tell the police about this boy or the scientists they will pay me.
Angel Bass
“Hmmm, how many? It can be a million. They’ve been looking for a vampire with this kind of ability for a long time-
Rafael Park
“Don’t do what you’re thinking.
Rafael Park
I’m just the same as you. I know you just ran away...did you? “He asked me and I nodded.
Angel Bass
“I know you’ll understand me”.
Angel Bass
“But now I only think about money I didn’t eat for three days since I run away. I can’t even find a job because I haven’t even graduated yet...and I’m just 14.
Rafael Park
“You can say that. Because you probably have money.
Angel Bass
“You know what...I’m hungry and I don’t know whether I’m still alive after that week you’ve been talking about.
“She explained and hold back her tears.
Angel Bass
“I don’t know what I should do now...
The boy sighed and look up from the dark sky with the rain still drops from it.
Rafael Park
I bit my lips. Trying not to remember how worst the situation was.
Angel Bass
When I felt his arms swing around my shoulder.
Rafael Park
“Ok...we will eat now so don’t worry. Smiled *
Angel Bass
Like what he said. He take me to the restaurant and ordered me a food...he didn’t order food for himself probably because midnight wasn’t the time for eating.
Rafael Park
She really ate it quickly...
Angel Bass
“Sorry, I’m so hungry am I’m just stuffed,
Angel Bass
He gave me a look...it’s his gave thinking like I’m disgusting while eating.
Angel Bass
“What I’m hungry.”
Rafael Park
“You look so dirty. I wonder if I’m gonna look like you too after 3 days. Smiled and chuckled *
Angel Bass
“I wish you’d be like this and more worst.
Rafael Park
“I changed my mind. Give me the food”
Angel Bass
“No no...I’m just kidding. I said and hold the plate
Rafael Park
“What’s you’re name?
Angel Bass
“Angel, You can call me just Angel.
Angel Bass
I just nodded. And focused on the food.
Angel Bass
“You look rich, why did you run away?
Angel Bass
He looked sad when I ask him that question.
Rafael Park
“My parents want me to go under experiment.
Angel Bass
I was shocked when he said that. I mean who would parents do that to their child right.
Rafael Park
“They just want money...i know that
Angel Bass
I looked down as i understand now his history, it’s terrible when you’ll be someone’s experiment and its too dangerous too. And for all scientists are crazy.
Angel Bass
“How old are you by the way.
Rafael Park
“Do you have to know that?
Angel Bass
“Not really...I’m just curious?
Angel Bass
He’s 2 years older than me.
Rafael Park
“How about you...aren’t you gonna tell me?
Rafael Park
“No not about that anyway, why did you ran away?
Angel Bass
I wasn’t running away...I’m finding my dad.
Rafael Park
For what reason?
Angel Bass
“My dad disappeared last year for no reason. And my mom moved to the province she was strict and I hate her. Sighs *
Angel Bass
This place was my hometown...and since dad’s disappeared my mom choose to hide.
Rafael Park
“But you didn’t found your dad here.
Rafael Park
“Then why didn’t you just go home?
Angel Bass
“My mom was probably mad me.
Rafael Park
‘You’re just putting yourself on danger.
Angel Bass
“Why don’t you ask yourself first? Why didn’t you just go home.
Rafael Park
You’re a girl. Your different besides girls like you can’t find a job easily when your too young...
Angel Bass
Don’t say that, you really don’t understand me.
Rafael Park
“I should tell you this because I’m older than you.
Angel Bass
Still I won’t go home.
Angel Bass
I don’t want to.
Rafael Park
“Then i have a plan.
Rafael Park
“Let’s live in together. If we rent one apartment we share the half price...besides I looked 18 now.
Angel Bass
“No way, why would i live with you.
Angel Bass
“We just met and I don’t know who you are...plus you’re a vampire.
Rafael Park
I could see at the looks of the employees in this restaurant. This girl...I’m just trying to help her because she don’t have any money.
Rafael Park
“So what?!? If I am one. Humans are the real monsters anyway.
Angel Bass
“Vampires are monsters, your drinking human blood. Why don’t you just drink animal blood instead?
Rafael Park
“You’re kidding right. Laughed *
Rafael Park
“I’m not drinking humans blood. My parents never allowed me because if did I’ll get addicted to it.
Rafael Park
“She bit her hand and a small blood drop from her hand.
Angel Bass
“Even you smell it? Of course you would love to smell it.
R A F A E L
Angel Bass
“Even you smell it?
Rafael Park
She told me while i looked at her hand...
Rafael Park
“So are you gonna live with me or no? I asked her again.
“Rafael why are you so slow? The customer was waiting to give this to them now! My boss told me so I run towards the employee run and I took the tray of food and gave it to the customer.
Wait a minute. This wasn’t my order. I ordered for pancakes not bacons! “The customer said.”
Someone raised their hand and said “We ordered for pancakes.” So I walked towards them.
“Waiter please!” Some customer called me again.
Rafael Park
When will I be able to rest.
Rafael...hmmm..just chocolate mousse latte for me. “The girl said while she looked on my name plate.
Rafael Park
“Ok, how about you ma’am?”
I asked the other one. “Some milkshake please.” She answered so I wrote down what they ordered. I was about to walk away. But the girl held my arms.
“Call me if you’re free...by the way you’re so hot.” A knot formed on my forehead while she give me a little piece of paper. She was calling me hot but I’m a cold blooded. Vampires are cold blooded.
I just nodded and walk towards the employee room.
Rafael Park
“Angel, here’s the new order.”
I gave her the paper and she took it without any words, and make those orders.
Rafael Park
It’s been a week, when we started doing this. We actually lived in but we didn’t talked to each other. Sighs.
Rafael Park
This was just a routine now, it’s tiring but I need to do this.
After a few hours it’s already night. This was I’ve been waiting for since earlier. I started wiping the tables since we’re closed.
I was thinking too deep. What will happen if I get back home? Will my parents still forced me for the experiment. Sighs.
Suddenly I saw a cop walking in front of the cafe. I hide under the table. The cops opened the door. They entered the cafe and talked to my boss. I looked at him.
“Have you seen this boy passed by?” I heard the cops asked him. I shake my head while I looked at him.
“No, I haven’t.” My boss told them. And I took a deep breath.
“Why, what did he done why are you finding him?” My boss asked the cops.
“He was a missing kid. He came from a rich family. Who ever saw him and gave him back will probably get paid. “Maybe a million. The cops said.
“R-Really, He was that rich?” My boss asked the cops again. And he was looking at me.
Rafael Park
My parents are really doing everything just to find me. I will never go home.
“Yeah. If you saw him. Give him back quickly. “The cops said again. Then they left. I stood up.
“You didn’t tell me you just runaway. You know you should go home now.” My boss said and he held my arms tightly.
But i took it away from him.
“Why people loves money.”
“They’ll do anything just for the sake of money.
Rafael Park
I’m not going home.
You’ll just get tired if you work here. It’s better for you to go home” My boss said it to me.
Rafael Park
“You’re just telling me that so you can have the money.”
“I’m just concerned for you.”
Rafael Park
No, you’re not. People just want money. You all really don’t care about me. You will do everything for the money you didn’t even think of what I feel. You’re just thinking my advantages isn’t it? I told him.
I took my apron off and that’s when Angel came out and I grabbed her arm.
Rafael Park
“We won’t go home no matter what.” I told my boss and we both just go to the apartment.
Rafael Park
I woke up without Angel. She was nowhere to be seen in the room. But I don’t care anyway. Since it’s my day off. I just decided to go outside.
Rafael Park
I go towards the park wearing my jacket and cap. Since my skin was to sensitive to sunlight.
Until...I saw Angel on the bus stop in front of the park.
Rafael Park
“What is she doing there?
Rafael Park
I walked towards her and I sat beside her. She was wearing a red ribbon on high bun.
Rafael Park
“Don’t wear that. It doesn’t look good on you.” Chuckles.
Angel Bass
“You don’t care if I want to wear it.” Glares.
Rafael Park
“Okay fine.” I said and we both stayed silent.
Rafael Park
“Why are you here, are you going home now?”
Angel Bass
“No, I just remember my dad wherever I go here.
Rafael Park
“Is that so? What do you remember then.”
Angel Bass
“I saw him waiting here some car, and that’s the last time I saw him.”
Rafael Park
“You didn’t hate him?”
Angel Bass
“Why should I?”
Rafael Park
“Because he left you, your supposed to be mad at him.”
Angel Bass
“I’m not. I know there’s enough reason for him going.”
Rafael Park
Wow, she’s was more matured than I expected. We both are so different. She didn’t care about anything. She just know about love, while me I only know about hatred and revenge.
Rafael Park
We sounds like a complete opposite person...
Rafael Park
“If I were you. I started to hate my dad a lot buy you didn’t.” I said.
Rafael Park
She replied. I just looked at her eyes and I just realized now. That I loved the way her eyes look at me.
Rafael Park
It just look so beautiful to me...
YOU'RE A VAMPIRE TOO, RIGHT?
Rafael Park
Another few weeks past. And I always go to the bus stop in front the park with Angel every weekend. It’s just like the only time for the whole week that we will both talked to each other.
Rafael Park
I like that time when we were both there. I want to hear all about her and her stories even I can’t relate a single thing.
Rafael Park
I took a deep breath while I was walking towards the bus stop. But then someone just called me from the narrow street. The place between the two buildings. It was dark there.
Rafael Park
“Psst.” I looked at that place seriously and I stepped closer to that darkness.
Rafael Park
“Yes, come over here.” That same voice said and he laughed. It sounds creepy. I kept on walking there...until I saw the man whose been calling me.
Rafael Park
My eyes widened and stepped back slowly.
“You’re a vampire too, right?” Eat with me.” The man said while he drank the blood of the defenseless girl body. It was a young girl probably she was 7 years old...
“Why are you afraid, never drank a human blood before?” He ask me. His face looked so different. I can’t see him as a person.
He looks like a monster. His eyes were red and he have fangs, his nails was long.
Rafael Park
I panicked while stepping backwards. And it even got me more nervous...when that man walked towards me.
“Come on, taste it. I know you’ll regret if you didn’t.” He told me while licking his hands full of blood.
Rafael Park
I shook my head. But i can’t stop looking at the blood. My mind tells me to taste it. But...I don’t want to be like this man.
“Just have a taste, trust me.” He said again and moved his hands closer to me. Until.
Angel Bass
I called Rafael everywhere on the park. “What took him so long? Aren’t he gonna go here?” Maybe he go somewhere else.”
Angel Bass
“Rafael?” I called him again. And I saw him running towards me.
Angel Bass
“Rafael...What took you so long?” I ask him but he looked so dumbfounded. He looks like he didn’t heard what I’m saying.
Angel Bass
“Rafael, are you okay?” I asked him again. He shot a look at me, it was different. And it is creeping me out.
Angel Bass
His eyes was different than it used to be. It was slightly red just like his lips and a pale skin.
Angel Bass
I stepped backwards, when he just leaned closer to me. He didn’t say anything.
Angel Bass
“W-What are you doing?” I look directly on his eyes. But then...he just pinned me against the wall. His grip was so tight. What is he doing?
Angel Bass
“Get away from me Rafael.” I told him calmly. My heart raised fast. I just feel so afraid until he lean closer to my neck.
Angel Bass
“Rafael?!? What’s the matter! Get away from me!” I yelled at him and I’m trying to take his arms away from me. But it is still pinning both of my arms against the wall. He’s strong.
Angel Bass
I hold back my tears, still trying to take him away from me...until i saw some cops came. I didn’t hesitate to call them.
Angel Bass
“COPS, PLEASE HELP!” I yelled still trying to get Rafael away. Before the cops run towards us. Rafael loosen his grip and he step away from me. Just like he woke up from the reality. I quickly check my ears and neck flow down to my cheeks.
Angel Bass
I can’t believe he was about to do that to me...I hate him.
Angel Bass
Rafael told me his sorry about what he did. He is about to step closer again to me. But gestured him to stop.
Angel Bass
“Don’t come near me!”
Rafael Park
“I don’t know what I’m doing...I’m sorry.”
But the cops came. Their eyes widened to see Rafael’s face.
“You’re Rafael Park? You’re the missing kid. And now your doing that kind of thing!?
“Kid are you okay?” The cops Angel but he didn’t remove her eyes to Rafael.
Angel Bass
I glared at him. He told me that he don’t do that thing. That was the thing I’m afraid when we were with each other. I thought he will do his promise but he didn’t.
Angel Bass
He intended to do it.
“Do you know that the girl can put you to jail for what you’ve done? You just harassed her.”
“You’re going with us now, whether you like it or now.” The cops said. They took some handcuffs. But then Rafael ran away. So the cops chased him.
Angel Bass
“That’s when u realize...Should I help him?”
Angel Bass
I think of it. But then I ended up chasing those cops too. I run faster and I saw the two cops tying Rafael’s both wrist by handcuffs while he was already on the ground.
Angel Bass
Before they locked it. I pushed the cops away and I tried to remove the handcuffs. But the cops pushed me. My back hit the fence so hard that caused me to groan.
Angel Bass
Rafael yelled when he saw me groaning in pain. Then he glared at the cop who pushed me.
“Aaa!” He groaned. His neck turned red then into violet. Just like the blood has been stock in there.
Angel Bass
His neck turned red then into violet. Just like the blood flow stop flowing. My heart raised fast again. I looked at Rafael and I hugged him the covered his eyes. Then the cop stop groaning. What’s happening to him. He was turning...into a monster now.
“The kid did this to you, without touching you? But that’s impossible.” The other cop said.
Meredith Park
“Son, there you are!” We’ve been finding you for a month.
Meredith Park
“Why did you runaway?”
Angel Bass
His parents came. They both hugged Rafael. But the expression on Rafael’s face wasn’t good. A knot was formed on his forehead. He’s not happy to see his parents.
Rafael Park
“Just leave me alone!”
Angel Bass
Both of his parents loosened up the hug. Everyone on the room looked at Rafael.
Rafael Park
“I don’t want to go with you!”
Angel Bass
Rafael told them. Then his dad slapped him hardly on his cheek. I looked on the other direction...maybe I shouldn’t watch this.
Enzo Park
“What’s happening to you young man!” We’re still your parent and you will go with us even you didn’t want to. You will obey us as your parent do you understand!” His dad yelled.
Angel Bass
That day...they came at the apartment and took Rafael’s stuff. Rafael didn’t say anything while packing his bags. He didn’t even looked at me.
Angel Bass
So I decided to open a conversation with him...this was my fault. If I didn’t call the cops this wouldn’t happen...but really. I’m so scared earlier.
Angel Bass
“Rafael.” I called him. And he quickly looked at me.
Rafael Park
“I’m sorry about earlier, I didn’t did my promise.”
Angel Bass
He told me. And I smiled.
Angel Bass
“Someday...we will see each other again. Can we?” I ask him. And he smiled back to me. I offered him my hand and he receive it. We both do pinky-promise.
Rafael Park
“Just believe. This moment can mark the beginning of something great.
Angel Bass
“I believe in that too.” I told him.
Rafael Park
“Okay then...wait for me, okay.”
