HEART RACING. SWEAT on her forehead.
Sore feet. Cold wind brushing her cheeks.
Sea salt tears wetting her cheeks and lips. Blood on her coat.
A stab wound to her waist.
She kept on running as tears streamed down her face. Nanginginig ang kanyang kalamnan at tila hinahalukay ang kanyang tiyan sa halo-halong naramdaman.
Her nostrils were blocked because of crying, making it harder for her to breathe. Idagdag pa ang ilang minuto niya nang pagtakbo.
She's so tired. Ayaw niya na. Gusto niya nang sumuko. . . pero hindi pwede.
Napapagod na ang kanyang mga paa sa pagtakbo, pero hindi siya tumigil. Nanginginig na rin ang kanyang mga paa sa pagod. Every part of her screams in pain and tiredness at tila tinutusok ang kanyang mga talampakan na ikinahagulhol niya.
Gusto niyang huminto. . . pero hindi pwede.
She is still wearing her white coat, at puro dumi na iyon sa ilang beses niyang bumagsak. Nababahiran na rin iyon ng dugo at hawak-hawak niya ang tagiliran niya na may saksak.
Blood kept on pouring despite the pressure she had applied to her wound, pero hindi niya na iyon ininda. She needs to find a safe place to hide. . . kahit na alam niyang hindi niya matatakasan ang mga ito kahit anong tago niya.
Fuck. . . If she had only known.
She could feel her heart thumping in her chest, echoing in her ears like a relentless drumbeat as a sob threatened to escape from her lips. Mariin niyang kinagat ang pang-ibabang labi at pinipigilan na huwag gumawa ng ingay.
Damn. . . Someone pelase save her. Hindi niya na kaya.
Her face contorted in both pain and fear. Sa kalagitnaan ng gabi, gusto niyang magsusumigaw at humingi ng tulong, but doing so would be a dumb action to make because they might hear her.
Kailangan niyang makatakas sa mga taong 'yon.
Kailangan niyang iligtas ang sarili niya.
She needs to hide, or else she will die. At hindi siya pwedeng mamatay.
Malakas siyang napadaing nang mas lalong humapdi ang sugat niya sa tagiliran. Dark spots started to dance in her vision as her consciousness slowly engulf her. Pinikit niya ang kanyang mga mata at sinubukang tumakbo ulit, pero hinang-hina na ang kanyang katawan na ikinaiyak niya nang tuluyan.
Malakas siyang napahagulhol at sinubukang tumakbo ulit, but her knees buckled. Her body gave up, and just as she was about to fall, a pair of strong arms caught her, making her wince. Despite her clogged nose, his manly scent managed to enter into her nostrils, almost stirring her mind.
May kumawala na singhap sa kanyang mga labi. Her defenses heightened as she tried to escape, pero halos hindi niya na maigalaw ang kanyang katawan dahil sa sobrang panghihina. The man scooped her in his arms, and she tried so hard to open her eyes pero hindi niya na magawa.
At wala na siyang magawa kundi ang magpaubaya sa taong pilit niyang tinakasan.
She whimpered as her mind slowly drifted, her body trembling in exhaustion. Naramdaman niya ang paglakad ng lalaki na mas lalo niyang ikinahagulhol.
This will be her end. . .
Tears streamed down her face as a sad smile formed across her lips, a bitter thought passed through her mind before her body gave up.
She's the only key. . . and the truth will forever be buried along with her.
