LOGINSERAFINA The sudden beeping of his machines jolted me from my emotional turmoil. His body jerked at seconds intervals, and sweat began pouring down his body. Tears? I'd rather be dead than watch this. “Rapheal!!” I screamed, trying my best to hold his body down. I couldn't care less that I had sneaked into this building in the first place. “Rapheal!!” I didn't know how or where my body had gathered such a massive strength from, but I threw myself on his body and hugged him tightly, hoping it would change something. The door burst open, throwing in three nurses and two doctor whose foreheads were creased in fear which intensified when they saw me. “What's going…” Ruben stopped midtracks and his eyes darkened. Behind him stood Helen who was no better and Frantlan, seeming like an observer. Well.. Fuck them all.. “What the hell are you standing for?!” I thundered, promptly backing off and getting everyone back on track. Despite my front, I was shaking l
SERAFINA Background song: Pretty hurts by Beyonce. If I wasn't mistaken, his height would measure at least 7 feet. With well toned biceps that nearly tore through his silk white shirt and deep black hair that extended to his upper back, he gave off an ancient vibe. However, unlike his gray eyes, he had a dangerous energy surrounding him. Either he was an extremely powerful human, probably from the clan of deadly mafias and politicians, or he wasn't human at all. As he swayed his hips towards us, the ground beneath nearly shook from the impact. “Get away from her.” The first man staggered towards me, almost shaking in fear while his counterpart squared up to the strange man. “And what's it to you?” He thundered. “Why don't you mind your business?” The man gave a pretty dead glare from up close. And thanks to his height, he was looking down at my assaulter who definitely didn't measure up to six five feet, giving the man a good scare which he was good
SERAFINA The day broke quite fast but I was yet to recover from the dizziness that resulted from having to knock out the nurse. My insides writhed with excruciating pain, and I fell asleep occasionally throughout the night. With every strength I could gather, I managed to stand on my feet, with a little staggering. Noises filtered in from the hallway, leaving me with no choice to take the stair anyways, to wherever I had decided to go. But I couldn't leave without seeing Rapheal. A sudden metal clang alerted me of the door knob, which was gripped by the other side and pushed repeatedly until it burst open and two men gave me a once over, before making their way to wherever. I wondered why they were taking the stairs. Shutting the door behind me, I was grateful that the clouds hadn't brightened as much. Maybe I could finally see him. He was at the VIP ward which I couldn't access without a card. Looking around, there were just a few nurses loitered around. I
SERAFINA Storming into the massive hospital building, I made a beeline for the private elevator that led to the VIP intensive care unit. I hit the buttons hard, my heart in a frantic mode but it wouldn't budge, instead people stared like I was some kind of lunatic. I hit the buttons again but the display above shone red, reading access denied. A security guard immediately walked up to me. Thank goodness. “Excuse me...” “Excuse me…” I stopped as soon as he stopped, then proceeded again. “What's going on?” “You dont have the access card so naturally, you are not allowed to enter.” The man didn't seem to recognize me, given the countless times I had been on television. “If you can tell me who you are here for, then we can help you inform their guardian.” “Rapheal.” I breathed. “Rapheal Dekoms.” The man gave me a once over. “How are you related to him?” That question stirred a web in me. How am I related to Raphe
SERAFINAMuffled distorted voices… “So you are planning on releasing her?” My head pounded so loudly in my eardrums I wanted to rip them apart. I tried shutting it with my powers but I was too weak to even lift a finger. “She is a missionier.” the angered voice said again. “She was trained to kill not love.” I wanted to yell at her, to shut her up for screaming like a crazed animal. My lips felt like they were glued together. I tried to move my body again but there was no response. My eyes closed and opened momentarily, but the view I always saw was so blurry, I couldn't make any thing out. “Serafina..” Someone was hovering over me. “Serafina..” my body was shaking. “Are you there?” No. I was fast tranceeding to wherever I came from. “Sera..” I have heard that name before. Someone.. A sudden pain shot through my body, and I screamed, but seeing how calm they were, still hovering over me, they didn't hear me. How many wer
RAPHEAL So close.. I swerved onto another tarred road, cursing out the truck that had made me drift from my original road. So much for someone who had a driving license. Ruben's car was right behind mine, as he had promised me, we would go to the temple together. If we didn't see any temple, then I had to give in and use other means to find Serafina. She had to be on this earth… Somewhere on this earth. My phone suddenly vibrated, his name displaying on the dash screen. I quickly swiped the green button. “Are you okay?” I chuckled. “I'm fine, Ruben. That was nothing.” Except it wouldn't have been if I hadn't lounged straight into the bush. A few minutes ago, I spotted a truck coming from the opposite direction. It seemed odd because this path was ruled out as a danger zone. Being here meant you were strong headed or just a fool. Yet you are here. From the distance, he seemed really cool with his driving but drawing nearer, I realized
RAPHEALFew hours before: It all felt surreal. When my eyes fluttered open, the first thing I saw was a white blinding light. I thought to myself, that this was me facing judgement. Until the sound of a beeping machine interrupted my thoughts. That was when I glanced around realized I wa
SERAFINA How did I get here? I think I know. I was trying everything within me not to think about Rapheal. So my best bet was to go on a man hunting spree for Don Columbus. And now, I was being skeptical about having made the right decision. With a swift turn, I stabbed th

RAPHEAL The eerie silence had returned. The kind that had a way of growing its teeth in the house. There was nothing comforting nor peaceful about it, rather it was invasive. It crawled beneath my skin, sat heavy on my chest and whispered thoughts of death everyday. There was nothi
