World War II just started a year ago, I don't know when will this end. War after one.
I heard from the news, that Hitler was one of the reason why it happened. They say that he has invaded some of the European countries.
What a pain. Now I am trapped again in a war between countries.
First it was World War I and now,this.
It was a cloudy Thursday, autumn was just around the corner. The sun was still nowhere to be seen. The house was only lit by few light bulbs and candles.
People during the 1880's were great for inventing these stuff. Making our lives a bit at ease.Yet, this war made our life uneasy.
But then this incident happened.
Everyone was filled with anxiety and fear that the war will stay. Seems it won't end.
I'm here at the basement, I stocked my shelves with clean waters and food. I could jump to a new age where good things may stay, but I didn't.
I'm still hoping to see what happens when I try to mingle with the mortals. What's ahead of them if I help one? Will they be a good citizen? Will they last longer?
I've seen so many deaths since I was born. I wonder how is he? Does he think of me? I hope father is safe.I hope he is still alive.
By the afternoon, an explosion was heard. The ground shook, people's screams were heard. I heard weeping and soldiers' screams.
It seems I'm in a greater trouble. I wanted to jump but something is stopping me.
At three in the afternoon, I heard knocks, loud thuds at the main door. Someone was continuously knocking, as if he or she will break my door.
The strike plate,or metal chain that links my door to the wall was still there when I open the door.
Bang!
A woman was behind it, she was asking me to help her child. She was badly injured. I can still remember what she said, "I don't expect you to care for me, but please I beg you. Take care of Geanne for me."
She was struggling because of pain. I can see that her clothes were filled with bloodstains.
The metal lock that still clings on the wall was loosened. I opened the door and let them in. And locked the door again.
I took her and her (I think newborn) child down to the basement.
I don't know why I am panicking.
She placed her child beside her, I can hear her grunting and groaning in pain.
I just thought of helping a mortal and here's the answer... This would be the first time, I'll help a mortal.
I hurriedly searched the bathroom for the first aid.
She was shot at the back.
I am no doctor but I think I can manage. Here I am, mingling with a mortal's life. Extending it...
"Madam, I need to remove your upper garments so we could remove the bullet behind you,and lastly, treat it."
Though she's hesitant, she looked at me and agreed on removing her clothes.
I washed the tools, the tools to operate on her.
It took us hours before I could say she's safe. I covered her wound with the bandage I had in my first aud kit. I left them there, so they could rest.
I went upstairs, in the master’s bedroom to get some mattress ,pillows, pillow cases and some blankets.
This year, I am not alone. This will be the first time in my two hundred years of stay in the world, that I'll be with someone. This someone is a mortal.
I am dragging the mattress, while the pillows, blanket and their covers were placed in a bag. The basement is large enough for a family.
When I returned, both of them were fast asleep.
I prepared their room, I placed a divider between our spaces.
I even go the extra mile of making a crib for the child.
I'm so drained...
I think I used all my energy today. I went to my bed and went to sleep. I'm so tired.
When I woke up, she's not in her place. The infant was sleeping peacefully.He has a white complexion, auburn hair and sometimes he opens his beautiful eyes which I guess will soon be blue.I searched for his mom, first in the basement. She's not even in the bathroom which is just adjacent to the stairs.I entered the bathroom with the child. I put down the infant next to the large basin, I get my towel to fixed myself, and get dressed when I plan to get upstairs.I went upstairs to search for his mom. He was angelic and silent. The wooden planks upstairs creeks as my bare foot stepson it. Few of the sun rays entered the few openings in the windows, which was covered by wooden planks.I just hope she hasn't left. I first passed the informal living room which I guess was never used unlike its counterpart, the formal one after the dining hall.I p
I helped Leana to walk down to the basement, she had this baby carrier so I don’t need to carry Geanne. Especially I don’t know how to carry a child moreover, an infant.She carefully remove Geanne and placed him on the bed. Then, she slowly lie down to bed.I placed the blanket on them. I went to my bed with Dante and lie down and prepare to sleep.Hours had passed and I can't sleep well, it's already twelve in the early morning.Everybody was fast asleep and here I am wide awake.Maybe I could jump and fast forward things to another time so I could save these people's lives.I slowly got up without awakening them and went to the secret door near the bathroom. I get my pocket watch and diary from the bedside table, slowly I insert the key to the keyhole and I entered the door.I walked back and forth inside and started thinking of what year we could jump, without t
I transported to the year 1950 with people with me, now they left me... Well, I was used to being alone. I went to the basement to get the toolbox there. This day I will remove all the wooden planks nailed on my windows.The deafening silence was broken by the noise of the planks removed from the windows, and the cheers of people outside.The once gloomy house was now filled with light by the sun. It feels good.I removed my shirt to wipe my sweat off my body. That whole morning till early noon took me on removing all those barricades. For the first time after ten years I went out to the garden.Weeds outgrown my herbs and flowering plants.Dante followed me wagging his tail. I could say he was enjoying my company.I took the weeding tool in the cabinet. Those ten years sure do fixed my house. Is my house immortal too?I brushed that thought and started weeding my g
It has been two months since I became an executive for a company, known for telecommunication.Guess what, Dante had a partner (lucky dog), the owner of the dam or should I say his wife, gave me a three month old puppy. He looks exactly like him, he was too energetic.I got up early and prepare breakfast, I have work to attend to. I placed dog food and some water on separate bowls for the two. I went in my bedroom, scanned my wardrobe and wore my formal attire with necktie and went to work.Things have changed now, I haven't seen Leana and my focus was on my job.Some women smoked and they can work now to helped out with their everyday needs.I can say women have been flirting with me, but I rejected them since I am not into dating anyone.When I went home, my body and mind surrendered. I took a quick rest before I searched the house for Dante. The house seem
Last day of December I went in a public library to read a book about transfusion of blood , though fiction I would like to try it.January, new year and new morning at around ten, I left Whitney and went to the pharmacy. I bought a syringe and some supplies needed for the house. I took a cab and returned home.I hope my plan would work. I went to the kitchen's island to prepare for the transfusion. I called Whitney and she approached wearily.I put a sedative on her meal to prepare her. I secretly withdraw my blood using the syringe. I had withdrawn a five milliliter of my blood.When she was finished eating, minutes later she felt sleepy. I carried her to the kitchen island when she passed out."I hope this will work" I mumbled.Without any knowledge of what would happen, I looked and felt for her veins, once I was able to searched for it I carefully inject my blood in her.
I went in again to grab a bar of gold, I think we need more money at this year. It is a lot different. Big difference.We went outside to checked things. I have no idea, I saw people with a lot more different clothes. Some were staring at me.Women wear clothes that reveal more skin and men wear shirts unlike mine which is long sleeved shirt and trousers.Few minutes passed, I had the courage to talked to someone, "Excuse me, may I know where is the nearest bank here?"She never answered me except she pointed out a building fifty meters away from us.She was stucked on a thing on her hand. I've never seen one. I thanked her and Whitney obediently followed.Minutes passed, we reached the bank. There's a man in uniform alike to the police, he was carrying a loaded shotgun tied around his body, and an m45 clinging on his waist.I was astounded on the weapons he was car
I started this day groggy, and uncomfortable. I cannot forget what he said:“I believed you're from another year, time traveler.How was it being rich, Samuel?"I cannot still fathom how he knew my name and how he knew I'm traveling through time too?I shook my head and slapped my cheeks. Ow!I can feel the heat from my cheeks. It hurts.I went to the shower to wash those thoughts away.I went out to buy food, I fear that I will bump again to that cab driver.I became cautious of my area which I have never done.I became more cautious of people. I went to the near boutique and buy some clothes that fit to this era, the ladies inside were staring at me, possibly because of what I wear.Next stop is the grocery, it is a building away.As I was shopping, I saw a familar face. My heart races. Tho
I dreamt of Gaille growing to a fine lady. And in there she was with me...And that dream is far from possible since she know me... And my identity will be revealed... I just hope that I will find my father soon before I see her being a lady.Whitney jumped on to my bed to wake me up. She licked my face which tickles me."Hahaha, Whitney stop it. It's ticklish"I wiped my cheeks which is filled by Whitney's saliva.She jumped down as I leave my bed. I went to the bathroom and looked at my reflection.Sea blue eyes, white complexion and wait... Why's my hair turned mahogany? Father what does this mean? It's so hard to be an immortal, and you're alone... You can't ask someone alike to you the querries in your head.I opened the faucet and clear water flowed. I cup my hands to the flowing water, and it touches my face. It was refreshing. I brushed my teeth as mix thoughts
