“What happened?” I asked her only to see the frightening look on her face as she looked at theeh of mine whose bandage are already loosened up completely.
The two kids tried to look and took a peek about what my mother saw but then my mother shouted loud enough so that they can stop from doing what they was about to do.
I somehow feel discomfort with my mother acting that way. She is not a person who will act like that, she is gentle and kind specially if it is around my two little siblings. Her, acting that way...
“Emma Rico please get out of this room for now I have to talk to your brother”
“Mother”
As much as they wanted to stay, they can't possibly disobey mom.“Allright now that they are gone”
I look at my mother who was locking the door she didn't look back at me and sat in the same side on where I am sitting from a while ago. Removing the bandage is compl
“Mom is there something wrong?”I asked as I saw how my mother looked at me in a very unfamiliar way. She stand up and and look around my room walking and opening all of the drawers as if he is looking for something. I was about to ask her about the thing that she is looking for but then she stopped as she saw a pen and a clean paper.A pen and a paper? Now I remember that my mother is good in her hands. One of her talents is that she is good in drawing. He even made a title because of that talent of her.I just silently look at my mother who was seriously drawing and scribbling something on that paper. It is as if she is eager to do it since it is something urgent.Now I doubt if I should have said those words. Is it a bad move for me to ask something about that old man?But that old man looks just like what I described, even so, I feel like I'm missing some important details.
After that, I never heard anything about the man whom my mother drew in the paper. Even the paper she used became ashes after it burn in flames. It is as if my mother is not wanting anyone to see that very face.She is hinding something.Even if I asked about that, for sure she won't answer me truthfully.My father came home immediately when he heard the news. l was in my room sitting as I analyze the weird scar thing that happened on my leg and just like my mother, he look at it with a worried and startled face. Even so, he collected his calm and immediately went back on his original and formal faceNow I wonder why they are acting like this. Surely, people will be surprised about this but their faces are saying as if something they are expecting finally came. That this thing finally came which makes them worriedNow that I remember, that small little fragments that are flying all around. It never appeared
I am not sure about what this elder is saying to me. But he said that thing and... regret? Will I make a choice i my life that I will regret?Just what does he mean by that?Looking at my hand who is holding the key he had given... I can't help but run my thoughts.It was the very first time that an elder talked to me like this. Yes they do say some words for me but in the presence of my parents... but today, It seems to be differentThe elder left leaving me in silent. I never knew whether I am someone who have the right to say this but then why do they make things so uncertain?Why do I feel like something is not right?They often tell things that are different in the ordinary language... as if they are playing it safety. Just like beating around the bushEven so, what the elders said to me was somehow annoying at some point.They always said that freedom will al
The last time I tried to reach it, it soon disappeared the moment I put my eyes in something other than this. I am afraid that once I do the same thing, this little light fragments will surely be gone from my site and I will never know when will be the time that they will come again.Now I wonder what this little fragments meansI do feel uncomfortable that I am not moving an inch to see whether it will dissipate or remain in my sight.Is this little light fragments mean anything?But still, after a long while of staring at it, it never disappear just like what it did beforeCan I touch it?I thought to myself. I'd say somehow... there is an urge in me that makes me feel curious, whether it has a body or not...What I mean to say is... they look like a small little light floating but then they usually dissipate and disappear. It makes me feel curious whether they have a body or not.
Just what the hell is happening in my body?“Mom...! dad....!”I shouted panically as I am not sure whether I should hide it or not. But then I came off to the conclusion that whether it is turning worse or turning good, I shall let my parents see it since they have much more knowledge about me and they have much more experience experience compared to what I have.Surely they will have things to say to me about this and they will have their own opinion. Even do, whatever may happen... I won't let thrm keep me caged in here.I have learned my lesson when I tried to hide my my problem with my parents because once I hide it to them it became a lot more bigger that is not goid enough for me to handleIt is not that it was a big deal but then at that moment I did something reckless when I was a child and ended up hurting other people for I ruined something precious to them. And.. when I tried to bring it back into pieces
I wonder how many days have passed by since I started to have the chance to get out of my bed.Lucky for me, my parents believe in my words after I said that it doesn't hurt as it looks like.But I covered it with a cloth that are blessed by the moon.It might sound strange but the cloth that they put in my skin was a cloth that they had offered their prayers with.It is said that it is a remarkable item that can only be given to those who are worthy, now I feel like I owe them so much even though I am not sure what kind of changes it would make if I just cover it with the normal clothes."Hello Emrick are you doing alright?"It was my neighborhood who asked it to me as he saw me walking out of the houseI nodded my head in reply as I wanted them to know that I am doing wellIt is not that I am close with those people but then the one who greeted me just now is a friend of my parents. I should act
Now I regretted this decision of hanging this key on my neck because in the first place, I should just have put it in my pocket so that no one will notice it but since I didn't do as what that is and hang it on my neck while hiding it on my clothe, now things are getting complicatedIt is surely my teacher who had spread those information to the others saying that I am the one who have break the record of having the key of that exclusive chamber in the libraryA library isn't a big deal but the exclusive chamber itself is. That is all because it hides the most important collections... books who have a great benefit towards those who can obtain it.Even so, I am not sure about the ideals of it.This is what I said but that chamber is truly admirable but then people will always think that the more admirable that place is, the more marvelous and extraordinary those people who can obtain those classifications to have the right
If only I can record this very image of these idiots who tried to pick up on me, I can say that it will surely make me to a dozen laughs. Truly, it will make my two little siblings laugh...yeah I will sure to tell it to them sometimesI clap my hands to remove all the dust that have been have been put in my palms since I crashed that rock into ashesAlright, trashes are gone.Now that I can completely go away and be in my way to the library, I somehow feel relax.Now.. I just remember that there are some people who are watching us. How funny, surely in their mind it is I who started it. No matter what I did they will, with no doubt, side other people thinking that it is I who is wrong.Protect this village? Well, protecting my family can be easy for me. But to protect people who don't care about my existence... I doubt whether I can do that. Even so, I am sure that not all of them think that way. But then the ma
