Silent moon

Chapter 05

My mother was a deaf - mute.
She was everything thing to me, she was the coolest person I ever had by my side.
I would never be able to accept the fact that she isn't with me now.

Jason took me to the waiting room, he took his seat next to me on a bench and said, "Things might get harder like this, I won't say anything for now but, you have been handling everything well. If you have anything you want to share, you can talk to me." Hearing this from Jason made me wonder how contrasting siblings could be, as I was bought up alone. "Thanks Jason." I gave him a smile, knowing that it wouldn't look fine. "I'll get going then, I have to return some books to the library."

Walking down the streets to the library, something strikes me, these streets weren't which I walked on for the past 17 years.
This exact place in my memory, was a place where laughter echoed. Now it was all silenced, there were way less people than usual. 'Where did all those times go? Why does this place feel so off ?'

I was wondering and looking all over, then from a distance I saw some boys, with the same high school uniform as mine fighting so rashly. I started getting closer to get a clear view, by that time the police arrived there and started handcuffing them and pushed them into the jeep. Their looks confirmed that they weren't young boys. They were something else.

Soon after, I arrived at the library, handed over the borrowed books and went to the shelves to get another set of them. I was busy choosing some books, it was hard to decide which one to take home. I looked out of the close by window, I saw some people, of course faces which I haven't seen, coming out of an abandoned building which was opposite to the library. I went closer to the window to see them all getting into a black van, one by one getting in, and the last to get in was someone familiar. "Who is it... Ian?"
