The beginning of June in Calgary was all thunder but no rain.
...
In south Calgary, Alvera Earhart, wearing a high school uniform, knocked fervently on the door of the Francois family's villa.
"Antoine, Antoine, come out and save my mom. Please help me."
Alvera was crying uncontrollably.
It was hard to tell if it was because of the cold or the pain.
Soon, the door of the villa was opened and two burly men came out.
Alvera trembled slightly, "I... I want to see Antoine."
"Miss, please come in."
Alvera walked quickly into the villa.
Soon, she was brought to a room on the second floor. "Mr Francois is inside. Please come in."
Alvera looked at these two men and suddenly felt something was wrong.
Antoine said that he had dozens of servants at home.
She did not see anyone else in the villa when she came in.
She swallowed her saliva in fear.
Before she could do anything, the man beside her opened the door and pushed her straight into the room.
The door slammed shut.
The room was pitch-dark.
With the back against the door, Alvera was not daring to move a finger.
"An... Antoine, are... are you here? It's me, Alvera."
Before she finished, she felt someone grab her wrist and pull her into a firm embrace.
She struggled against the embrace.
It was futile.
She was trapped in the tight embrace.
The stranger spun her around, lifted her up and threw her on a large bed.
As she struggled to get up,
a dark figure pounced on her.
He tore at her clothes and held her down so that she could not move.
"Let me go... Who are you?Let me go. I will sue you. you're commit a crime!"
The man breathed heavily by her ear and kissed her.
No matter how hard she struggled, she could not break free.
She touched an ashtray while she thrashing her arms in the dark.
She grabbed the ashtray and smashed it on the man's head as hard as she could.
The man was obviously stunned by the blow.
Immediately, he grappled the ashtray from her hand, threw it away, and tore off her clothes.
There was no tenderness. Alvera's virginity was taken away ruthlessly.
It was a nightmare to her. The man tortured her for more than seven hours tirelessly.
When she finally escaped from the room with the torn clothes, the villa was still empty.
It had begun to rain outside.
She rushed into the rain without a care and ran all the way to the foot of the bridge.
There was a woman lying under the bridge. The puddles under her showed that she had been lying in the rain for a long time.
Alvera ran to the woman and knelt by her side. She picked her up and held her tightly.
"Mom, mom, it's raining, why didn't you find a shelter, mom..."
The woman's body was cold her eyes were shut tightly,
even though Alvera cried bitterly.
"Mom... Mom, wake up. Don't go, don't leave me. Mom, I was wrong. I shouldn't have left you. I was wrong. Please open your eyes," she cried.
The only response to her were the sound of thunder and rain.
Her mother would never open her eyes again. She knew her mother was gone.
She clenched her fists tightly and recalled what her mother told her before she left.
"Alvera, I can't hold on any more."
"Mom, I'll find someone to save you right now. I'll definitely save you. I didn't tell you that I have a boyfriend, he's the second son of the Francois Family in the south Calgary. The Francois Family is very powerful, they will definitely save you. I won't let you leave me. I won't allow you to leave. If you leave, no one will love me."
"Alvera, listen to me. Once I'm gone, I won't be your burden anymore. Leave this place, and never come back. Stay away from the Earhart Family. Forget about me and the Earhart Family, and forget all the unhappy memories in the North Calgary. Don't do what I did. Find someone who loves you and treat him well. Marry him, have children, live a normal life, and be happy."
Alvera held her mother's cold body and sat in the heavy rain the whole night.
The rain stopped at daybreak.
...
Alvera wiped away her tears and clenched her fists tightly.
"Mom, I promise you. After I get revenge on the Thomas Earhart Family, I will leave this place and never come back," she swore.
