Love The Psycho

Chapter 104: The empty castle

"Aaron, there is something I need to report to you before you come for my head'' Liyah said nervously.

''Tell me, what did June make you do?'' Aaron asked.

''How did you know it concerned June?'' Liyah asked.

''She is the only one who could convince you to go to hell with you and you would gladly go. I know what she is capable of. So, tell me what did you do for her?'' Aaron asked.

''Well, she said it was a while since she came and that everything looked new and blur to her. She wanted to go to a place she used to know but she wasn't sure if that place existed anymore or not. I really don't know how she did it, but before I realised, I already gave her my car keys and she left'' Liyah said over the phone nervously.

''So, you gave her your car and she left to this unknown place? Liyah..you''

''Sorry'' Liyah didn't want for Aaron to finish. ''I am already regretting my actions and I'm also worried about her''

''Alright, I already installed a tractor on her phone last night. I will find out where she went and bring her back''.

''Please let me know when you find her. I won't be able to stop worrying'' Liyah said.

''Sure, I will call you'' Aaron hanged up. Liyah sighed and sat on the sofa.

.....

Aaron checked his phone and soon found June's destination. She was heading towards where the four roads met. The same place that Mai wrote about the day of the episode. Aaron stood up and picked his blazer and keys before going out.

...….

June pulled over in front of a big castle-like house that stood in the middle of a deserted forest. Perhaps, because the house had been deserted for so long, it looked quite inhabitable. That was the mansion August Maijune's parents built for her on her 16th birthday. The pass code that Lorca was searching hard for to this particular building and the others were deeply engraved in June's head.

June got out of the car and walked to the big gate. She lifted her hand and wiped away the cobwebs that clouded the pass code system attached to the gate. She was about to punch in the numbers when she suddenly heard noise and turned. She saw Lorca with two men behind her.

Lorca gave a sinister smile and looked at June. He was still unaware of the fact that his niece had DID, so he didn't even know which one was currently occupying the body.

''I knew you would come here one day, August Maijune'' Lorca said as he puffed out smoke from his cigarette. The smoke entered June's nostrils and she used her hand to blow them apart and laughed.

''Uncle, it looks like you weren't scared enough the other night?'' June said and looked at him with her dark eyes.

Lorca frowned and asked as he looked and took notice of her eyes ''why are your eyes like that? You…what did you do to yourself? Your eyes always look different each time we meet'' he asked.

''Take a wild guess, uncle'' June told him.

''Forget of that. now that you are finally here, open the damn gate and tell me the pass code immediately. I will be generous and let you off if you don't play any coy game here with me'' Lorca said.

''The passcode? Oh, that is what you are after? I don't have it too. This house has been here for so long, the fact that it was still here bothered me somehow. So, I decided to come and just put in some random numbers so that it will blow up into pieces just as my parents wanted'' June said casually and looked at her fingers.

''You…you really don't know the passcode?'' Lorca asked suspiciously.

''Uncle, you must know already, that I have lost most of my memories from childhood. Did you really think I could remember the passcodes to this castle and the other buildings? My uncle, you sure are a very brainless man'' June said and gave a sarcastic laugh infuriating Lorca. The two men by Lorca's side attempted to step in front and deal with June but Lorca stopped them.

''I am giving you a last chance to come clean with me, August Maijune. As you can see, Aaron Saint isn't here to help you. You are on your own today, and my men don't mean playing with you first'' Lorca said smugly.

''Uncle, you have really become funnier as they years passed. I clearly warned you that night not to mess with me'' June said and looked at the sky that was already becoming dark. It was about to rain. ''I really hate…rainy days'' June said and sighed.

''Open the door while I watch. Afterwards, I will change the passcode and lock it. Oh, did I tell you? Your parents tomb will soon be excavated? I just sold that land to the governor. He intends to build a really big pharmaceutical laboratory on it and do some research. I even gave them your file. I also told them you were practically an insane prodigy who had vast knowledge in science. Your blood group type is quite rare you know that right? I recently stumbled upon a file your father left years ago and it contained a lot of information on your blood group''

''Ahh aha'' June chuckled and looked at him. Her mocking expression only infuriated Lorca the more.

''Are you opening the door or do you need my men to help out'' Lorca asked impatiently.

A car pulled over abruptly and Aaron Saint got out of the car. the sound of the car got their attention and they turned and saw him. Aaron Saint was speaking on the phone as he walked to them.

''Yes, I've sent you the address already and there is another man, his name is Lorca Don Marco, I'm sure he is the one you have been looking for, so you can come and get him right away''

Lorca's face turned ugly as he heard his name being mentioned and got alarmed.

''Aaron Saint, did you just call the cops on me?'' He asked.

''You are such an annoying fly, I see you everywhere I go, so I decided to get rid of you once and for all:' Aaron Saint said and looked at June. She smiled at him.

" shit, let's get out of here'' Lorca said to his men and they walked away through the bush that they came from.

After they were gone, June ran to Aaron and hugged him, wrapping her legs around his waist ''I knew you would come for me but, you should have come a little late. I really wanted to teach that man a lesson. Too bad' June said and got down. she turned to the castle and pointed at the door saying 'let's go in. There is something I need to retrieve from that house''

''Liyah has a very important meeting today and she needs the car. Do you know how worried she was after you left?'' Aaron said to June.

''I know. I read from August's diary that Liyah was a fashion designer, I remember my mom used to have some vintage clothes lying around here so I wanted to bring some of them to her'' June said surprising Aaron.

''You came here because you wanted to help Liyah?'' Aaron Saint asked.

''If not, what would I be doing in this cursed place? Let's go in'' June said and keyed in the passcode and the door opened. They walked in and she closed the gate again.

Aaron Saint followed closely behind June as she walked into the house. She pushed open the two-way door and entered the hall. It still looked at same as they had left it.

''Still looks the same, follow me. I will show you something intriguing''. June said and walked up the stairs. She got to a door and opened it using a passcode. She entered the room and Aaron followed her. The room turned out to be a laboratory and. It had all the machines and apparatus in their right places.

''This is where Mai does most of her research. Our parents built this house because they were scared that people will find out about August having a split personality. They wanted this place to be a sort of safe haven for us. let's go to the room and get the things we came for. This place doesn't feel like home for me anymore'' June went out and they entered a storeroom.

Aaron helped June to pull out a box under a big table and June opened it. she coughed and blew away the dust before kneeling down. She picked a couple of silk vintage materials out.

''I don't know how she is going to do it, but I believe that when she mixes the materials she has with this vintage materials, she will be able to make something out of it'' June said.

''Sure, I will call her and let her wait for us. We can still make it. she said she will go around 14:30PM'' Aaron said and picked the materials and an old photo fell from it. June picked it up and looked at the picture and smiled.

''What's that?'' Aaron asked and took the photo from her to look at it.
