Who's Behind The Knife (The Face Alter Game)

Chapter 8

I run outside

I looked at my phone.

Task in progress.....

Task Completed.

I immediately go into my contacts and call 911.

I told them about the incident.

Please hurry up. The patient is in emergency. The accident is at a University of Beauty Arts and Science Cosmetology. Please hurry up, thank you.

I said to the operator

I run towards the stair and shouted." There's an injured person at the studio. Someone in there needs help."
Be quick!

I heard someone shouted.  " What?!  Go over there to have a look." he told the students.

There are people who came running towards the studio.

"She's in there"i told them.

Someone shouted. "It's Ruzzi!"
And they run towards the room.

I stopped and looked at the girl who suddenly shows up with all the other students.

It's raining again just like that time. It's summer yet it suddenly rain.

Flashback

It's raining.

Everyone has that one life encounter that makes them look at life with a new set of eyes.

 My life-altering incident occurred early than most. It was the summer before the start of seventh grade.

Despite the fact that it was summer, we had received an exceptional amount of rain in recent months. 

My summer was meant to be ordinary, but things suddenly changed. Is this a good thing or a bad thing? That is a point of contention.

My initial thought was that it was raining. My younger self could not grasp the concept of raging waters flowing down a suburban street. So, I jumped off the couch and ran to the giant window and peeked through it. From what I could see the neighborhood was completely normal.

Then I saw it.

My friend lying on the ground looking at me with those misty eyes. Her eyes that captured my heart, those pair that i won't never forget.

She was helpless with water dropping around her. Im rooted to where I stand. She mouthed "okay lang ako, magiging ayos din ang lahat" as she slowly close her eyes. She was hit by a truck.

I will never forget that scene, our memories together, her words of wisdom.

Reminiscing about the past and remembering every tiny detail as I gazed at that small building flashes so many big memories. I was overcome with nostalgia.

The roof we used to go in the middle of the night while just walking and talking about anything beneath the nighttime sky, seemed unforgettable and remarkable to me.

Everything had so many memories and appeared to be special.

I understood that being vulnerable would change me on so many levels, but it never occurred to me that my friend would be responsible for the majority of the changes.

She had a specific link with me, and I learned a lot from being with her.

I had a special bond to my friends before, but there is one that inspires me to be strong and vulnerable at the same time, even though it really hurts.

Before this life-changing encounter, my eyes had been sealed shut and I was astounded when a new notion entered my mind.

I'd heard this saying at least a hundred times before, but I had no idea how powerful it could be.

I never considered all of the beneficial implications it could have in my daily life.

I used to just shrug it off when others told me this, but soon they were finished talking, I forgot about it as if I didn't care what they said.

However, as a result of the incident, I now believe that it is okay to be vulnerable. With this experience, I realized that we need to let go the burden of the past and keep moving forwad. It may be hard but it is the action that we certainly need to take for us to have our life again.

But.....

I never really have my life back.

.......
Present

And now that friend is standing right in front of me. Looking at me with those same pair of eyes.

How can i not know her sister. How can i forget?

I'm sorry but it's all done now.
