"I'll tell you the truth since you are in the right age and the right mind, Selena." My eyes went bigger when he said these, expecting that he'll say yes.

"They we're. What you know about your past..."

"Wasn't true at all."

I trembled more out of fear. My memories keep on running into my mind. And the fact that someone intentionally removed the breaks of our car for us to be in an accident, makes me mad.

"You are so cruel... All of you..." I cried. "Very... Very... Cruel."

"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME THAT?!" I shouted. "YOU GUYS MADE ME AN IDIOT! I'VE BEEN THINKING OF ALL OF THAT AS AN ACCIDENT BUT... IT WAS NOT!"

I calmed myself down while they were just speechless.

"I'm sorry if I got all of you startled. I'll be out for a while." I shed my tears and headed out without bringing anything.

I was crying very hard, not making any noise. I went pretty far away from the house. I felt really weak walking on the sidewalk. No one is there except me. I looked like a walking ghost because I did not tie my hair. And I look creepy.

"Will it rain?"

I look dumb talking to no one. Tears won't stop falling from my eyes. I was at the baywalk that time, And I sat down the seawall. Covering my face with my hands since few people were there.

Imagining the accident is too hard. Why would someone do that to us? Is that someone hated us so much? That person made Mom and Dad put an end to their lives. And almost killed me. Why would my brothers didn't tell me that when I'm still young? Did they know all of that from the start? I was the one who was involved in the accident but I was also the one who is completely clueless about the truth.

Why does that have to happen to me? Why me of all people?! That memory of mine is already buried and will never be removed. It broke my heart even more! I know that accident was centuries ago and I was trying to get over it but now, I FELT LIKE IT HAPPENED YESTERDAY.

I wanna meet Mother (Grandmother). I wanna tell her that you two including me we're intentionally put in that danger. I am sure that she will get furious about that and will try to find justice. I wanna meet Father (Grandfather), too. I'm sure he will do the same, for his daughter, his granddaughter, and his son-in-law. I want Mother and Father to go back to being husband and wife like they were before.

Mom, Dad. I once wished that I should have died, too. But when I found out about the truth, I think I wanna seek justice. It's not some sort of murder. But that person will surely pay for what he or she has done. I will sue him. I will make sure that person will rot in the prison, I will make sure that that person will spend his remaining life in the prison.

Being alone is also good because you have time to think about your problem, but having someone who can comfort you and can stay by your side is much better. Will someone... come?

My tears were already dried by the wind. It already evaporated. Now I was just sightseeing. The view of the bay, the colorful cottages, tall palm trees, stars twinkling, few people walking and wandering.

If only I could do this with Mom and Dad...

After a minute, I dozed off. But the wakes up again when someone talked in front of me.

"Hey. You might fall in the sea. Just sit in the cottages."

I looked up, and it was Antaios. I started to become teary once again, I remembered what I said earlier. "Having someone by who can comfort you and can stay by your side is much better".
