Healing the deep wound

Chapter Eighteen

   Dany was standing by the door. I could tell from his look that he was in daze. I whispered "Daniel" and took a step forward. Dany took a step back closing the door and he sprinted. I went out right away trying to get close to him. "Dany wait! Daniel please! I need to explain. Please!" I cried out. But he kept sprinting and I lost track of him. I went running back home. "Dad please you need to help me find Dany I couldn't find him anywhere." Dad was sitting on the couch and he was obviously having a deep thought. He then grabbed his coat and keys and fled off with me.

   Daniel

I haven't seen Amy for awhile and I sure do miss her. She does call once in a while but still... I actually do miss her alot more than I think I do. "Dany why don't you go see her if you miss her that much." Nana suggested as she caught me staring at Amy's picture.

      So I left the next morning. I left from Bahrdar and it took 5 hours to get there. I asked around where I could find Amy. And finally someone I guess an employee at a furniture store happened to know the way so I was directed. I found a similar house that matches the description of the gentleman. "This must be it." I whispered. I then knocked on the door over and over again but there was no reply. Then I opened the door to find some gentleman in front facing me and I could see someone facing the opposite side of me and I could tell it was a girl. Amy??? I thought. But then neither of them had noticed that I was there. I could hear them clearly. "H..." before I could finish this sentence "Dad grandpa killed Daniel's parents, Mr Gillingham and Malvern." Did I just hear right? Gillingham and Malvern?... My parents? I thought for a moment.

    
        
"Dad it wasn't a mere hit and run grandpa planned all this. He killed Dany's parents." I couldn't believe what I was hearing. It was definitely about my parents. Amy's grandpa did what???
I felt faint. The gentleman infront discovered I was there and stared at me with a startled look. Amy then slowly turned around. As soon as she saw me her eyes widened. She just stared and called out my name. That was when I was actually sure that it was all about me. I shut the door and sprinted like crazy. I could hear Amy calling out my name but I was better off away from her. So I dissappeared. I didn't know where I was going. And I didn't mind as long as I was away from Amy. I sat on a stair found in an odd neighbourhood which I run through to avoid Amy. I cried my eyes out. No one had ever mentioned this to me. Not even Nana.

    All these years I had no idea about my parents. Nana told me that they had passed away but she never mentioned how. I somehow felt betrayed. Why hasn't Amy mentioned this to me? Why not even once? I questioned myself.
