Children Not Soldiers CHAPTER THIRTY-FIVE: THE COLONEL
The next day, I woke up and found a note on the bedside table saying, 'Be right back. I had another bone scan. They said my hands were mending faster than expected. They commented about the drugs doing better than expected. They had me escorted back to the room. Fran gave me a visit again, brought the usual tray and food. She helped me eat, and although it didn't taste as pleasant as the food from the canteen or the food from the underground floor, I ate with vigor. I need my energy back as fast as I can. I can feelit. I know something's brewing out there, and I'd bet my toes this time that it has something to do with the captain. I did squats until my legs cave in.&n

I opened my eyes and turned to the clock on the bedside table. I wasn't surprised to find myself insidemyinfirmary room. My body's a stiff as stone. I must've slept for a long while now. I stood up and stared at my hands. Only my thumbs survived the beating. I couldn't help but feel sorry for my little fingers wrapped thoroughly with bandages. Fran entered the room holding a tray topped with a water bottle, a couple of medicine, and a kettle. There was food, too. I smiled at her, and she just sighed. She gave me three tablets of different-looking capsules. I took it and gulped it down with water. &nb

Bee became the highlight of my life, diligently helping me avoid detentions. During the past few days, the class managed to escape detentions with her wits, thus making my wounds heal in peace. One of these days, I'm going to thank her. Still, Lieutenant Margaery is nowhere to be seen, twice the sergeant had personally gone to me for information, and twice I told him I didn't know where she was. We were in the middle of Flight Lessons when Victor got pissed off and attacked Viper, his co-pilot. Roses stood up to watch them brawl. Private Lowell found them rolling on the floor, kicking and punching. &n

Another month passed by, I managed to avoid seven detentions and survived three. The first one was when Eagle and Howler snuck into one of the warplanes parked outside. Bee punched me in the gut when I asked her to tell the superiors that I made them do it. The captain and I made a happy reunion and later drowned me. I had also started teaching Muscat some tricks like stay and fetch. Minnie said I was mistaking it for a dog, but I ignored her. As long as I can prove that it's atrainedcat, who would argue against it? It had also refused to eat cooked food, so I do covert burglary missions to the kitchen for Muscat's everyday food source at night. It's either piece of meat or a whole fish. Even Minnie doesn't know this. The second time was when Reaper, Barrel

As soon as I opened my eyes, I realized that my nap had taken longer than I had planned it to be. It's 4 o'clock in the morning, and my back feels like it's gonna cave in. The jelly pads must've worn out. I stood up and limped my way to the shower room to wash my face and brush my teeth. I turned around and lifted my clothes to check my back. The deep blue pads had faded to a whitish blue. I fought the urge to remove them and look at how grave my wounds were. I lost and succumbed to curiosity. "Awawaw," I muttered as I lifted the corner of the pads to take a look. I watched my reflection as the weight of the situation dawned on me. I looked at my half-exposed back with self-pity and

The lieutenant found me wearing the suit from last week's detention. She stared at me for a second and sighed in defeat. I saluted. "They said a kid's up for detention," she told me. "I should've known it's you again." "I got really pissed off with my bomb," I told her. "Whose ass did you save this time?" she asked and turned right. "No one," I said. "It's all me." I looked at the room where I was electrocuted and frowned. "Where are you taking me?" "The captain must've heard that it was you again, so he changed the venue," the lieutenant looked pale. And angry. "He's not gonna cut my fingers, is he?" I asked and cleared my throat. &
