Spy on them all

Spy on them all(Andrew Strauss) Spy on them all !

Control has so much lust in it... Adam thought to himself as he read Erica's personal email. Adam was working in a tech giant as a Lead technical engineer and was a pioneer into their new “sort your email”.

Adam loved control, ever since he was a kid; he loved spying on his parents, wanting to know what they thought about him, his brother. His parents however, liked his brother more than him (Yes, parents have favorites!!).

Adam graduated in the top 5% of his class and after 3 years of working, he was promoted to a senior technical engineer position. With his love for control and spying, he successfully integrated a new program of sorting mail automatically for free email users to the directors, and the government liaisons (yes, federal government spies on all of us, they have liaisons with every major tech giant, telecommunication giant, just like in this case). The program enabled the company to directly read the emails of its free users, thus bypassing an important “Privacy Privilege”.

Life is Random!! and so the randomness brought Adam's attention on Erica, who was his neighbor. Since Erica was Adam’s neighbor, it was easy for him to get her email address. Poor Erica never spoke to Adam, let alone shared her email!! She had no idea what “Typhoon” was coming in her life..

Adam started to look into Erica's personal email, bypassing the company's (where he worked) privacy laws, using the Sorting program he proposed and developed as his shield against the company's laws and lawyers, he developed a strategy to get Erica to start liking him... He started working out, since he read Erica likes physically fit men.

August 5th, Adam noticed that Erica had received a Proposal from Sam. Incensed and filled with Rage that someone else had proposed to Erica, he started searching for Sam's email address, trying to find his physical address with thoughts of causing damage to him and paving Adam’s path clear. Adam soon found what he was searching for; he rushed out of his office to the address, with the hopes of seeing who Sam was.

To be or Not To be !! [lol - I like the Shakespeare reference] Let us confront him, let us see who the joker is, said the voice in Adam's head, floor 2, apt. 5, let us knock and cause a response. The voices in Adam’s head got to the better of him and as he reached apt. 5, surprise, the door was open! What, why? He peeked in, gathered enough courage, and walked in the apartment.

What is the red colored stream ? Oh my Gosh, it was blood... Ohh my GODDDDDD it is Erica, she is lying down, is she dead? Siren sound.... soon Adam heard more foot noises coming into the room...

“Down on the Floor, show me your hands,” it was the Cops!! “You are under arrest !!”

Five hours later, Adam woke up in a room with a man looking down on him, offering him water; “wake up son!!” said the man, “I am George, senior detective... you know why you are here, Adam.” Confused, he answered, he found Erica’s body and blood in Sam’s apartment....


hahahahahahahahah, the detective laughed... “Erica,” he shouted, “oh my gawd!” Erica walked into the room, her face swollen but she was clearly behaving as if she was afraid of something or someone...
“Is he the man?” the detective asked.
“Yes,” she said slowly.
“Good job, you can go now.”

“Mr. Adam, I am placing you under arrest” said the detective with a stern and mean tone in his voice..

“Wait what happened? What did I do?” Asked Adam.
“You do not know? You moron, you almost killed the girl, if it was not for the neighbors, stating someone was trespassing in her home, we would have never found her alive...”

“What, it was her house??” said Adam.

Brilliant Minds are the most flawed according to a renowned Sociologist. It has been 12 days, everything is dizzy, why am I unable to speak up, why am I unable to defend myself. I did not hurt Erica, It was Sam, not me!! Adam cried as he sat in his jail cell.

“How are you Adam,” the cell door opened and there was an old man standing there. “I am Dr. Matthew. I am the principal Psychiatrist appointed by the prosecution.”

“Do you know what has been going on? Do you know why you are here? Do you know what you did to Erica? Why did you hit her? Why did you visit her again?”

“I do not know frankly.. I am unable to speak clearly..” cried Adam.. “What has happened to me?” He asked the doctor.

“Schizophrenia” said Doctor Matthew.
“What????? me?” asked Adam.

“Yes son, we found out everything... we found out about your work, your brilliance, your life. You have schizophrenia. There is no Sam !! It was part of your delusion...”

“What are you saying doctor…?” mumbled Adam.

“Son, the prosecution will drop the charges and release you under my supervision, you will be under my care.”

Adam was even more confused, “what is happening to me? Can you help me ?” He pleaded the good doctor.

The doctor started to explain... “You ignored your symptoms, you became delusional, and obsessed with Erica, you read her emails, spied on her, stalked her and on an early morning August 5th, you barged into her home and hit her bad. You used her laptop to send an email professing your love to her using Sam's email address.

You then reached the office and read her email and found Sam’s email. The rest of the story you know.”

“But where are my parents?” asked Adam..
“Ohh they will visit you in the hospital son.”
“Why am I unable to speak properly?” asked Adam.
“It is because of the medicine..” said the doctor. “We gave you medicine..”

Adam, still not clear of the surroundings or the thought process in his head, quietly walked with the doctor outside to the ambulance waiting.

It was as if it all was a dream. Adam woke up and found himself in a small room; the air conditioner was still on, he felt a little cold but strangely his thought process had returned to normal, the room was windowless except for a small ventilation at the top of the wall. The door was closed.

Adam still remembered Erica, Doctor Matthew, and still had no idea what time or day it was. He guessed he was in the hospital like the doc had told him.

His thoughts were clear now and he wondered, as he sat down on his bed oblivious to hunger, “What if this was a set up? What if the Government had planned this?” It was possible; they liked his ideas but were afraid that his controlling nature might haunt them. What if they all conned him (Adam) into declaring him insane.........

I think this is really interesting. I actually think the government would do something like this if they were afraid of someone for some reason. I like the story and the schizophrenia reference. lol, schizophrenia is actually my favorite mental illness, I find it so interesting and I actually think someone could pretend or be conned into being schizophrenic.

I noticed your grammar usage in this was better than the last one, but some words I changed because it made more sense to use another word.
I understood what you were trying to say, or so I think, let me know if I messed anything up.

I like it. lol - sequel!
