For As Long As I Can Remember

Chapter 2

*_12 September. Friday 8.30am_*

I woke up really late today.  I don't know how I hadn't heard my alarm. I quickly pulled on a pair of black shorts with a black polo neck. When I got outside I realised that my car wasn't there as I took it for a service. I decided to walk to the Vield Hospital since it wasn't that far from my apartment.

I took a shortcut and walked through an alley and there I saw the Hospital few warehouses away. Industrial sounds came from the first few warehouses I passed, but the one nearest to the hospital had been abandoned years ago. Its metallic walls had already started to rust.
As I walked passed, something caught my attention. I heard a male voice. It sounded as if he was being tortured. I couldn't help myself but walk over to the warehouse. It had no windows where I was standing, so I went around, through another alley and saw a glass door that was cracked and slightly open. I peaked through the dusty glass and saw four people standing around a man who was tied to a chair. There was a piece of cloth tied over his mouth.
The people standing around him, two were male, and the other two were female. One of the two looked familiar, but I couldn't exactly see their faces as they had turned away.

One guy was big, muscular, Black curly hair. He wore a black shirt with rolled up sleeves and a pair of black jeans and boots. The other female who I could see, was a brunette with long hair who wore black jeans, high heel boots and vest with a long purple fur coat. She had a beauty spot by her eye. I'll admit, she was pretty.

The guy with brown hair squatted in front of the guy who was tied to the chair. He looked bruised. His nose had blood running down.
The squatted man had an entirely black ensemble and he wore a floor length black coat which trailed behind him as he was on the floor. He ripped the cloth from the guy's face. He grunted.
"Imma ask you this one more time. Who is the last member of Gambino. And where are they?" _Brown hair_ asked.

The guy on the chair said nothing, but I saw the pain and anger on his dirtied face. _Silence_
_Brown hair_ stood up and packed a massive punch on the guy. He shook his hand later. Clearly the punch was painful. But more painful to the guy tied up.

"Okay clearly he won't talk", said the guy in the black shirt. "Discard of him." 

_Purple coat_ pulled out a gun and instantly shot him.

The gun shot was so loud, it frightened me. I shrieked. And they all heard it. Their gazes immediately shifted to mine. At that moment I ran, heading away from the hospital. Not exactly having in mind where I was going.

As I was running down the street, I was looking behind me. Seeing if I was being followed. No sign of anyone. _Maybe I wasn't seen_ , i thought.

Just as I started to slow down, there was a sudden flash. I pulled and pinned down near an alley by a woman who shoved me to the ground and had her foot on my back holding me down.

"Let me go", I yelled lifting my head off the ground.

" WHO ARE YOU", her voice sounded familiar.

"More like who are you", I shot back. " Just wait til I report you!"

Then the _black shirt_ guy appeared I'm front of me and lifted my chin up. "Big mistake kid." His voice was deep _serpent green eyes hypnotized me to silence.

"Shoot her. Simple." Another voice appeared belonging to the guy who wore a black coat. "We can't risk her blurting out what she just saw to the authorities."

He pulled out a gum from his pants then aimed it at me.

"WAIT NO NO", I yelled for my life.

He was just about to pull the trigger when _Purple coat came and shouted, " WAIT!"

He pulled back the gun. "What is it!"

" Hold on", she spoke with a Russian accent and walked over to me and stood me up. "She could be of use. Valuable use."

Everyone looked at me and smiled deviously. That's when I recognised two of them. A month ago I treated a patient who had a visitor. It was them.
Keith!
And...Miss Foxx.
