[18+]I’m Elena. My mother died when I was 10. After that, my dad married my mom’s friend, who was his secretary too.And now I’m lying on her son’s arm. I never thought he would do it with me. Paul was on me while I was staring out the window of the car. He was quietly sleeping. I was stroking his hair and singing a song that had previously been recited by Mom. Suddenly, the surroundings lit up slowly.It was going to be dawn soon. I put my voice down. He was still clutching me tightly in his sleep. I attempted to loosen his grip.In anguish, I closed my eyes. My lower back and lower body were in excruciating pain. I gently put his head on the seat and smiled at him. I softly called his name, “Paul.”“You know how much I love you.”“But now it’s irrelevant to me,” I said as I stroked his hair.“Are you sure you love me?”“Then you gave me the ability to hurt you, too.”I kissed him on the lips right after saying. I got out of the car after giving him my farewell kiss. I didn’t feel any pain. The wound on my back had already turned black and crimson. I made my way to my room.**Paul Wilson is a boy with paranoid disorder who falls in love with Elena D'souza, who was his childhood friend.
