My whole world came crashing down...
I kept running and running.....
I got nowhere to go, they could still be catching up to me....
My feet are getting bruised as I ran barefoot...
Help me.....
Save me.....
Flashback;
School was hectic and boring, I had no friends cuz I was always alone, I'd rather sit in a corner just to see the sunset.. Last class was done, I got up packed my bag and went back home,
My mom and I had gone through worst times since dad abandoned us. I hear mom crying in the living room as I enter the door."Mom, what's wrong?" I questioned as I sat with her on the couch.
"Sweetie I'm sorry.....The landlord wants us to get out because we didn't pay the rent on time, I know this is hard for us but please forgive me" she said crying and I immediately hugged her and said
"Mom it's ok, I know you worked hard enough and I'm not mad at you" I cried when starts to cry harder and told me something that made my eyes widen.."Your dad stole 1 million yen in some rich man's bank account and ran off with it, he blamed us about taking it and now those people are coming to kill us". I was shocked about this information that dad was stealing. As I was about to get up and pack a loud knock was on the door."Sweetie quick... Run!!!" Mom shouted as I heard some people tryong to break in"Mom no!!I can't leave you"
I said as I hold onto her"Mommy loves you very much sweetheart" she said and suddenly pushed me out to the back door and locked it, I banged on the door and shouted"MOM NO PLEASE DON'T DO THIS!!!.... MOM!" my scream was loud enough to notice some men at the front"GET HER" one of them said and I quickly ran without even wearing my shoes, our house was close to the woods and I was crying awfully as I ean into the woods..Flashback end...
My heart started beating fast and I was running out of breath as I was running..
I saw a hole in the tree that was big enough to let me through so I dashed ito it and hid inside, I was trying my best not to make any noise because the men are getting close. I could hear them saying "She might be hiding, go search the area boys!" I'm doomed, I hugged myself and prayed for this to be over.'Please God, make them go away'
I thought as I was muffling my cries..'BANG BANG BANG'
My breath hitched as I heard some gunshots and got scared even more, I was covering my ears as the loud bangs are still going on..
A few minutes later, it suddenly stopped.. I crept out to see if someone is still after me but all I see is bodies everywhere, I was about to yell but a hand suddenly covered my mouth and shushed me, I jumped up and was about to fall down but he caught me on his arms. I looked up and saw a masked man in front of me wearing all black like a spy or something, I shivered when we made eye contact, suddenly he said
"Are you ok?"his voice sounds a bit husky but he sounds so mysterious, so I said"Yes, I'm fine.."his eyes were searching for mine and we just gazed at each other for a minute before we pull away"It's dangerous out here, I suggest that you should better go home now"he said and walked off but I stopped him saying"I can't go back, they already killed my mom and now I have no one" I cried as I remember that my mom sacrificed herself to save me, she was all that I had and the one I could rely on and now she's gone, I heard his footsteps walk towards me and says"Listen kid, I know this is gonna be hard for you and I apologize for what happened to your mother but you need to be brave and keep moving on"his words suddenly make me stopped breathing for a moment and I finally looked at him"How can I move on when I have nowhere else to go, I'm also alone and have no relatives..I'm always weak when I come to face challenges ahead of me,I'm scared..."I said to him and he kneeled in front of me, held my chin up high and said"You have a whole life ahead of you, I'm sure you mother don't want you to give up this easily. The world may be big and scary but if you have a courageous heart and brave self, I'm sure you'll overcome it"I was stunned when he said that and it warmed my heart a little, I tearfully smiled and hugged him, I could tell he was surprised.."Thank you, no one other than my mom ever said that to me. Your words of encouragement made me realize that I have a lot to do while living"I looked at him as we looked at each other and somehow my heart started beating 'Why does my heart beat when I see those eyes?'I asked myself through my mind as his blue eyes stared at me, I decided to end this staring contest by saying"Thank you once again for saving me, can I know your name?"he looked at me blankly and said"I go by many names, I don't even think of saying my old name"I was confused about what he said and come to think of it, I realized that he has a gun on his waist"Are you a spy?"that didn't surprised him and he said"No, I am far much worse than that"I know he was trying to scare me off but that didn't scared me a bit"What's yoir name kid?"he said surprising me, I chukled and answered"Eva, Eva Hayashi"I swore I see him curve a little smile and said"Age?" "17 yrs old" I answered him and I asked him"What about you?"he said"much much older than you, my hair is even white"he took off his mask a bit to show me his hair and I see that this guy is old, but muscular at the same time"Since you don't want to say your name, can I call you one?"he's shocked by this and said"Anything you want"I started thinking what I should call him, I finally said"What about I call you Mr. Black"he was quiet for a second before saying"I like that, you got skills of naming there kid"I grinned at him and suddenly realized that we are still in the woods with the moon shining above us and bodies still around"Where will I go now and what can we do with all these bo..bodies?"I stuttered as I still see the bloody background in front of me, I hear Mr.Black saying"It's ok, I have someone to collect the bodies and for now, how about we go to a nearby orphanage to take in"I immediately said"Will I see you again?"I was waiting for his answer"Maybe"he said and I know that wasn't enough, I teared a little saying"Promise me that you will come and see me ok?"I held up my pinky and put his pinky on mine, he then said"Ok eva-chan, I promise... Now let's go"He held my hand as we walk out of the woods to his car, we hopped in and drove back to the city, I wish I could stay a while longer but I know that he's also a dangerous man. But deep inside, I also know he is a good man and my saviour.. Thinking about these thoughts suddenly put me to sleep......----------------------------
