The sound of thunder on Saturday night boomed, indicating that it'll rain soon. The cloudy atmosphere seemed favorable for anyone who was in such a cloudy state and mood. In one of the house yards, there was a man and a woman who were having an argument. Both made it like they're tied, nobody won or lost the argument.

"Go home, bitch. It'll rain soon." The black-haired guy was chasing away a blonde-haired girl. And the two of them are lovers, of course.

"You can't just throw me out! You have to listen to me!"

"No need. I don't want you anymore. We should just end everything!"

"What the fuck?" The girl looked shocked. "We're together like a week ago and you said you didn't want me anymore? Are you crazy?" She pushed him on the shoulder angrily.

The guy then responded to her by giving her a slap in the face. His rude treatment shocked her and made her want to cry. Yes, she did cry along with the raindrops that began to fall.

"Go away, Bitch! Have fun with your new man." The man walked away, entering the house as if he really didn't care about her.

The girl just wanted to give an explanation about the other man from earlier in the morning. "Okay, if that's what you want. I'll go and let's just end it here. GOODBYE!" She shouted angrily along with the sound of the house door slamming shut.

He entered the house while his ex was still standing outside holding back her tears. He didn't care at all like he's the cruelest man alive ever. And his name apparently was Ray Frederick, a guy with black hair and gray eyes.

He's now walking on the stairs leading up to his room with a cold gaze. The man seemed to still be harboring anger. The rain outside could be heard starting to pour heavily. Ray looked outside through the bedroom window just to check whether his ex-girlfriend had gone or not.

A smirk appeared on his face when he found the figure of his ex running around the rain. Ray seemed to enjoy seeing the girl's suffering. Because to him, someone who dared to hurt him must have to get a proper lesson.

The man was completely blinded by jealousy. He also seemed bold and could easily end the relationship briefly with Britney just for such a trivial matter. He broke up with her just for a reason that the girl might be cheating on him in a way she only took a walk with another guy but him. Like, she had to be his one and only and never got the right to have any contacts or even be friends with other guys.

Ray now walks to his bed then takes out his laptop from his bag. The man felt bored, so he browsed right away when the laptop turned on. He then typed his email and social media password. He didn't know why he just wanted to log in his Facebook.

When Ray successfully logged in, he didn't find any notifications. But the man was suddenly attracted to a woman he didn't know, and appears to have just posted the latest profile photo on the top row of the home page of his Facebook. The woman looked beautiful with her straight brown hair.

Her hazel eye lenses seemed to shine, and so did her clothes, the elegant black dress she wore in the profile photo. Ray kind of started bewitched by her charm just by staring at her picture.

Ray immediately clicked on her Facebook profile, trying to get to know more. First of all, Ray stalked the girls' uploaded photos. Most of the photos uploaded by the girl are works of art and Ray was completely amazed. He concluded that this woman was talented and it will definitely provide benefits for him, unlike Britney the ex. Ray then moves on to a self-image of the girl, and she's truly beautiful.

After that, Ray looked at the pictures uploaded by her, still not satisfied to know a few things about that girl. So, he pressed her profile info then read them one by one, the information he needed to know.

Ray then liked the fact that the woman he was targeting was apparently single based on her Facebook info. And the second thing that apparently made him curious about her was it turned out that she had graduated from the same high school as him. The girl is a graduate of Mayfield High School.

Ray couldn't stop thinking what a charmingly beautiful girl like her that turned out to have ever been at the same school as him. But the question for him is why he never even met her during school back then? Was the girl the unpopular type so he never knew about her?

Ray rushed to his bookshelf, looking for something. Something that he was trying to find was his high school yearbook. And when he managed to find the book, he sat back on the bed. He was opening the pages of his book impatiently, looking for her identity till finally it was found.

Ray examines an old picture of her from high school. And he guessed it right that she's not that typical popular girl at school. She looked ugly back then based on his judgment towards the picture. But to him, he doesn't care at all, because the most important thing is that the girl is beautiful now plus she's so talented he could take advantage of her for. And soon, she had to be his no matter what it takes.

The next afternoon, Ray met his close friend, Isaac. And he talked about the girl he was targeting next. Isaac just nodded, responding 'wow' only, for showing his amazement towards the girl that Ray described her as a perfect human being ever.

"So, what's up with you and Britney?" Isaac suddenly asked something which annoyed Ray.

"Don't talk about that cunt ever again. She's gone to death."

"Okay, then relax." Isaac seemed curious about that photo of the girl in his hand. "So when are you gonna start stalking this Meredith Sarah Isabelle girl?" He took the picture slowly from Ray. "Damn, she's hot as fuck." Isaac then shook his head as he stared at her picture.

"Shut the fuck up." Ray snatched the photo of his favorite girl from him.

Isaac hissed for a while but then he laughed at the faces he made. "Alright dude, I was joking. Then where did you get her photo from?"

"Facebook."

"Uh-huh, then what can I do for you?"

"We will start stalking her at 5 p.m, an hour to go."

Isaac nodded, understanding his explanation. "Okay, so we will follow her after college but.. where?"

"Art Center College of Design."

The Art Center College of Design has displayed a lively atmosphere because the time now shows at 5 p.m. It's time to go home for the college students. Smiles and laughter were visible blooming on the faces of the female students, including Sarah.

Sarah waved at her best friend -Felicita, when the two of them had walked to the different paths on their own home. Sarah walked to the left, and Felicita headed to the right.

Clouds now appear to be covering the sky. Sarah looked up at the sky and thought it looked like it was going to rain. And sure enough it happened, for a moment, Sarah had only walked about 5 minutes ago.

It's been raining in a short period of time. Sarah immediately ran with her bag over her head, preventing from being soaked wet. Then she finally arrived at her destination where she looks like she's catching her breath.

"God, she's so hot, for what?" The red-haired guy with the green eyes seemed to sparkle. "Ray, you have to see her up close." And that guy turned out to be Isaac.

"No need, we're gonna see her from a distance only. This is our safest place."

"Okay. So, what's next?"

"Take her picture." Ray answered in a cold tone.

"Oh, so you wanna collect them all? Man, you're literally whipped."

Ray didn't hear what Isaac said. He just remained focused on the way she moved. Then suddenly a flash of light appeared from the Polaroid he took her picture from. And the object being photographed suddenly turned around. Ray and Isaac seemed to step back slowly so that their actions wouldn't be noticed.

Isaac then asks him to just go home because he already made it. And Ray seemed to be smiling in satisfaction over her self-portrait in his hand. They then hurried to leave the place in a Porsche.

In the evening, Ray was still performing his act. This time, he dared himself to send a message to her on Facebook. But it turns out that he still wants to play with her, he wants to act like he's so hard to catch.

His Facebook account was changed into a fake name. He named it like Fr Rey, and not only that, he also changed the privacy of his pictures from 'Friends' to 'Only Me'.

The conversation between the two on Facebook was indeed visible fluently. But Ray still wanted it to be hard to guess, so Sarah would be curious about him. And when she asked something about the gender of the Fr Rey account, he did it on purpose like he typed anything, acting like he would reply to her messages. But no, he didn't really do it.

So, he logged off his Facebook out of the blue, just wanting to make her upset. And he was so happy about it, about the game he played as his gaze kept staring at her pictures over there with a smirk on his face.

Furthermore, Ray really didn't care if he was late entering the Providence Christian College area, where he continued his education. Because the most important thing for him is being able to see a beautiful female figure at the Art Center College of Design.

Images of Meredith Sarah Isabelle continued to sway into his mind. He looks like he's gone crazy. Like, how come? Every day, he was always haunted by her shadow like she probably turned into a pack of narcotics that got him addicted. Like he had to find another way to get her quickly.

He doesn't want to let her fall into another man's arms, including Isaac, his own friend. And for God's sake, Sarah could only be owned by him alone. He even dared to go against God's destiny. Whatever it takes in many ways, he had to get her. Yes, it's a must.
