CHAPTER THIRTY-SEVEN
CONFESSION
“Two packs are missing,” Hendrik stated.
“Are you sure?” Bob asked.
“What do you take me for? Yes, I’m sure!” Hendrik sharply said. “I had fifteen packs now there are only thirteen.”
The door clicked open as I quickly moved to the balcony, pretending to be staring at the sky. Rosie appeared. She closed the door from behind her.
She walked toward me and stared at the people walking below our building. Most were heading to work. My mother also used to go to work at these early hours before I got ready for school.
She would always leave the house after she had prepared my lunch box even if I told her not to prepare it for me.
“Crazy how seasons change so fast,” Rosie pulled me out from my wild thoughts.
“What do you want?” I asked.
She turned her gaze to me.
“Don’t you think I should be the one asking you that?”
“What do you mean?” I asked.
“Do you really think Hendrik loves

A WEEK LATERSISTER’S OF HELLCold wind blew pass us blowing her light brunette hair onto her face. “It’s been a week already and I haven’t found a thing about this stupid location,” I cursed. “Fuck this thing, I’m leaving,”She didn’t answer me only stared at the people walking below the old building we were standing on top.“I’m going to Incognito,” walking away.“When I was fourteen years old, I was rapped, rapped by four men,” a laughter escaped her lips. “Crazy, one of them was my damn father, not step but biological father, him and his friends rapped me,”I felt my body freeze. The memory of Toll came back flooding. His dry lips on my lips while I tried resisting.“Toll, stop!” I had begged between tears.Why was she telling me all this?

LOCATIONI watched Geno talking with the young woman with natural henna hair. He handed her a box which was wrapped with a newspaper, which she got excited after opening it. She gave him a hug, almost knocking him off his bicycle.“You are awake?” Rosie’s voice asked.I shifted my eyes toward her.“Umm,”She poured the hot water from the kettle beside me inside her mug. Her skinny hands took one of the clean tea spoons from the bowl, and poured three spoons of sugar inside her mug. Something about her presence was unbearable. I placed the cup of tea on the sink and headed for the door. Before I could step out she said, “Trusting Charlie is like trusting a man,”I felt my body tense. “She’s trouble, trust me I know,” She walked pass me heading to Eight who had stepped out his room rubbing his eyes.“Hello big boy,” She playfully said pulling Eight&

DEADLY BLUNDER“7pm sharp?” she asked.I nodded.“Good job Siren, I knew I could count on you,”“So, what are going to do now?” I asked.“Burn down the men’s world,” staring at the dark sky, covered with stars. “What else could I possibly do?”“Let me help you,” I insisted.“You’ve helped me enough, now it’s my time to fulfill my end of the burden,”I stared at her mesmerized. How could she be so confident, when she was just a single person?“Don’t worry about me, I’ll be fine,” she said puffing out smoke from her lips.“What are you to Rosie?” my mouth blabbed.She shifted her face toward me.“What?”“How do you know Rosie?” I asked.Her eyes widen. “What did you do to her?”I noticed her body stiffen. What was she hiding from me? She slowly reached in her jacket’s pocket.“Thank you for the information,” she dismissed me, while handing me bank notes wrapped with a newsp

TRAP, KEEP FEELINGBlood dripped onto the floor as I blinked a multiple times. The screeching sound of the chair caught my attention. “I’ll ask you one last time, who are you working for?” Edge asked pushing my face up with a knife.Something about his eyes seemed dangerous, but not as dangerous as Hendrik’s. My eye suddenly caught sight of Andy standing beside the door. There was no sign of Hendrik, at least for the time being I could think of a way to escape.“I already told you, I don’t know what you are talking about!” I yelled. “Please believe me!”His hand moved closer to my face showing me a pack of black crystal on it.“How do you explain this? This was found in your clothes,” Edge explained.“N…”The memory of their conversation a week ago talking about someone stealing their stuff came flooding in my mind.“You

THREE MONTHS LATEROPENING SEASONThe view of the white curtains swaying with the wind caught the attention of my barely opened eyes. Was I in heaven already?The tiny voices from behind the door which was a few meters away from me caught my ear. They seemed to be getting closer and closer. I slowly used my hands to sit upright, reviving the unbearable pain on my bandaged hands.In fact, my whole body ached and that was when I realized I had bandages all around my body. So, I was alive?The corner of my eye caught the sight of a familiar person resting her head on the edge of the bed caught my attention. Tears gathered in my eyes, it couldn’t be real. It had to be a dream.The door suddenly clicked open as our eyes met.The two cups of coffee on his hands went tumbling onto the floor, setting the one resting her head at the edge of my bed up. More tears came rolling down my bandaged face.Her warm e

RECONCILIATIONHendrik stood before me with Mesmick’s head on his hands. A loud laughter escaped his lips which sounded identical to Ten’s.“NO!” I yelled running toward him.Walls started closing in on us, until I could no longer see him. I rapidly peeled my eyes open gasping for air. I ran my eyes around the empty neat room. It had been a bad dream. My eye suddenly caught the sight of the few pictures hung on the broken dresser.Each picture reviving the memory of that moment. That is when I remembered that I had lost the picture with the four of us. To be honest I had thrown it after I had moved to the 36 street. It had suddenly caused me pain instead of comforting me.I moved my leg off the bed, pulled my crutches. I needed to go, I needed to find Kalo and Eight. I forced my body up but my weak body went tumbling onto the floor. I felt electric-shocks run on my body. A sharp scream shot out.

REUNITEThe warm rays penetrated through the bandages. My hands ran on the potted plant with the spinaches, my favorite. I loved eating spinaches. Especial with rice, it was my best. A knock on the door caught my attention. I quickly headed inside, heading to the front door.I pulled the open. Our eyes met. For a moment the world went to a stand steal.“J…Jack,” I struggled to talk.He hadn’t changed, that much, beside that he had a few additional earrings on his face, such as the nose ring.He embraced me. My grip on the crutches loosened.“I thought you were…”“Shh,” brushing his back.“It’s all my fault,” he said in hurt.“I found them,” my mouth blabbed. “I found Mesmick’s murderers,”I felt his body stiffen.“Di…Did they do this to you?” he finally asked.I didn’t answer only held on him even more tightly as I recalled Hendrik violently assaulting me with the stick surrounded

UNSETTLED FEELINGSI stared at the tap before me as my mother unwrapped the bandages around my chest. I felt the warm towel gentle wiping my aching back.“Umm,” I let out groan.“Almost done,” she said.She placed towel back on the sink beside her as she started rolling bandages around my chest. “Is it too tight?” she asked.“It’s fine,” I replied.“That’s good,” getting up, pulling the towel from behind the door. She started rolling me on it.“I’m going to work tomorrow, staying inside can be boring, you should come with me,” she proposed. “It could help you clear your mind,”“Okay,”“Great,” she said.To be honest I didn’t want to go out, I just wasn’t ready, not now. What if I bumped on my classmates?“Plot! Come help me here!” she yelled.A few minutes Plot appeared from the door. “I want to pick Siren,”“Okay,” placing my arm around his shoulder picking me up.His strength was q
