They say what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. We fear what we don't
understand. I have no explanation about the glowing bulb. It was 1000
hours but I didn't want to go into my room anymore. I was too terrified to
even think about it so I decided to go out in the town and deviate my mind
for a while and take a leave from my school for today. As I reached the
ground floor I saw Mr. Charles coming back from the hospital where his
mother was admitted. It's been almost 2 months since I got into this
apartment and I meet with Mr. Charles on a daily basis. I see him from
dusk to dawn. Before going to the school when he is leaving for his office
and in the evening when he returns. We also spend some time with each
other talking about horror stuff as I have already told you. But seeing Mr.
Charles after last night's incident, it was horrible. I got scared and cold and
started sweating.
There were a lot of questions in my mind. Was Mr. Charles really at the
hospital the whole night? Was it a dream? Who was that person?
"Badger. Is everything okay? You look worried to me."
Interrupted Mr. Charles when I was in the abyss of my thoughts. Somehow
I regained my senses and replied with a smile, "Yes, everything's alright. I was just not feeling well so I decided to go on a walk and take a day off
from school."
"Yeah, that's a good thing. How is Andrew? I mean, he called me and asked
if I was here last night or not. Was there anyone looking for me?"
"Oh.. no. No one Mr. Charles. Me and Andrew were just tired and thinking
stuff. It was probably just my stupid dream that i thought to be real."
"Oh no problem young man. It's alright. And thanks for taking care of
Andrew. I appreciate that." "No need Mr. Charles. Even though I was the
one who enjoyed his company the most ''''I'm glad to hear that. Well, i will
go and see him now. You can take your fresh air now."
He smiled and proceeded toward the lift.
I, too, left the apartment and was wondering where I should go.
Considering the circumstances, what could be the best place than a
gaming centre to freshen my mind up.
"Gravil-Avil"
If you are in my town, that's the only place you can think of if you want to
enjoy the real gaming thrills.
Wait! Did I tell you about my town? My bad. It's called Gexo-City. It's one of
the underrated towns situated in North America. Underrated because not
many people have heard about it yet it is the most successful town in my
opinion. We have literally everything here. Anyway, all I am thinking about
right now is forgetting about everything but the game.
I haven't been in the Gravil-Avil ever. This was my first time here and guess
what. They have all the latest technology and shit. I didn't waste even a
second and started playing games.
"Oh well, that's my seat boomer"
That was the sound that interrupted me during my gameplay. I looked
back and she was glaring at me.
"Excuse me?" I said
"Move your ass jerk, that's my chair you are playing on." She cried
"But I got here first. Plus, I didn't see any notice of this seat being reserved."
"Are you really arguing with me? Do you even know what I am?"
"Not interested" I said and criss crossed my arms.
She leaned on me and squeezed her eyes, "You better not mess with me" I
was already tired of my last 2 days and all i wanted to do today was to enjoy
and forget about all
of it. So I didn't follow my ego and gave her whatever she wanted. I went
onto another desk.
I didn't even realize how fast the time passed today. It was 1856 hours now.
I was starving and my hunger was on its peak. I stood up and did some
jumping jacks to make my bones work. My body was jammed because of sitting on a chair for a whole day. That girl from the early morning was also
leaving by now. She was standing on the front door.
I approached her and said, "Hey."
She looked back and said, "What jerkass do you want?"
"Nothing... I was just thinking..."
She cut me "Don't think anything. I'm not hanging out with you"
"Umm.. okay no problem" i said.
After that little of a conversation, she left.
Do you guys remember when i told you that, somethings happen with us
for no reason with non actual elaborations. At that moment, that's exactly
what happened. The sun went down already and it was pretty dark. The
street lights had been turned on. The road was full of vehicles. Horns and
engines everywhere.
When she started to cross the road, I don't know, time got slow, like
everything was moving in slow motion, and I was standing there watching
her crossing the road. A car with the neon light headlights came out of
nowhere and crashed over her body. There was a chaos. The things weren't
in slow-mo anymore. The girl was brutally damaged and bleeding. Her ribs
were broken and her right arms was also brutally damaged. I ran towards
her out of instinct and was yelling for help.
"AMBULANCE, SOMEBODY CALL FOR AN AMBULANCE. "
I was looking in her pockets to find any identity to discover her name or
find out where she lives. But I did not find anything. It was empty, so all i
could do was to wait for her to gain consciousness.
I filled all the forms of the hospital and paid some of my money. Actually it
was all I had of my pocket money. 4000$. I was hoping that the police
might find out who she is and then her parents will pay me back but that
was the least of my concerns right now. The doctors told me to wait until
she was okay. I decided to stay in the hospital for tonight.
"Are you okay?" A nurse asked me while I was trapped in the web of my
thoughts. I looked at her and she looked pretty nervous. More likely
terrified.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Why'd you ask?"
"Your Wound." Said she.
When i was a kid. My father told me about a Deja-vu thing. He told me that
it is an event, that we feel like we have already lived. Everythings repeating
itself, and I don't think this was a Deja-Vu.
I opened my eyes, and i didnt know what was happening or what
happened after that nurse asked me how I was doing.
I was laying on a hospital bed and it was morning. 0600 hours. I didn't
understand anything. It was weird.
"Oh, so you're awake."
A nurse came into the room with a notepad in her hand.
"What is happening? Why am I here?" I asked.
"Oh, so you don't remember anything? You met with an accident
yesterday evening and you were brutally injured. Your ribs were broken
and your right arms were also brutally damaged. A girl dropped you here
and then she left."
"What girl?"
"I don't know, she was in a hurry."
