Auxilium Haven

04

I was discharged at the hospital after finishing the drops. They sent me home and left after assuring that I ate.
I stared at my family picture. Klein...

I still have Klein. I'm not alone! I have to find him first. But where could he be?

I came back to reality when the telephone rang.

"Is this Kaye Narra? From College of Cassiopeia?"

My eyebrow twitched. "What do you need from me?"

"Klein Narra is alive. He woke up just a minute ago and he's finding you."

"Who's this?"I felt a cold sweat streamed down my face.

"This is the Hospital of Scarlet Hearts. I am his nurse. I'm glad he still remembers."

I did not answer for a while. Klein is alive and he remembers.

"How did you find him?"I asked.

"He was unconscious when we found him by the river. We were doing rounds that time."

I seemed not to believe. What would a nurse do and have rounds by the river? Shouldn't a police do that?

"Can I talk to him?"

"Yes. Mr. Klein Narra? Your sister is on the line," A moment of silence. "Kaye..."

I don't know how to feel. I don't know what would I react. This is definitely the voice of Klein, my older brother. His voice was weak, I knew he's still finding the energy to talk.

"Klein? Are you really Klein?"I felt my tears stream down my cheeks. My heart felt heavy.

"Don't cry. I'm alive. I'm coming back after I'm discharged,"a cough was heard. "Kaye, I'm sorry for running away..."

I was choked by the tears and it took me a while to answer. "Klein, can I visit you?"

"This place is very far from our home. It'll take you half a day to arrive here. Just-- just wait for me, hmm?"

"I miss you, Klein. I thought I'm all alone. Our parents are gone, don't you know that?"

I heard a heavy sigh. "I know... and it's my fault. I'm sorry, little sis."

"It's fine. It happened anyway. It's-- it's not your fault."

"You sound funny. Thanks for that," and he chuckled.

My forehead curled. My nose itched because of the runny liquid. I inhaled it back. "Will you come back in a few days?"

"I will. I have to rest by now. I love you. Take care. Be healthy and don't self-harm anymore."

I hummed as an answer. The line was gone after that. I let out a heavy sigh.

My self-harming was first found by him, and then by Trisha and Ryan. Until an unknown girl found me at the back of the school cutting myself. She looked scared seeing me and she ran away. She probably announced it to her friends and that's how the school knew me as a self-harmer. They reacted horribly while I showed no reaction. And then they called me dead girl because of that.

Reason of self-harming? I don't know. I was attracted to sharp scissors, knives and blades because I loved cooking. Until I accidentally cut my fingers. (Not the literal) It was just wounded. I found it pretty. I tried it to my wrists. I became attracted to black.

Klein got me checked to the hospital and they found that I was bipolar. It was caused by my childhood that I don't remember.

My self-harming became worse when I was horribly shouted at just because of my simple mistake at highschool. I knew it was simple. I just accidentally hit the vase at the arts room because my classmate 'accidentally' pushed me. I was very sensitive, and my parents never shouted at me.

It became worst now in college. I had the time that I almost died because parents died. Yeah. It started when Klein ran away from home because his fiance ditched him to marry another man. And parents were worried they followed him and unfortunately, a car accident happened. I caged myself for weeks and only ate cup noodles when I wanted to. My weight had a sudden fall due to what I eat.

They had a quick burial because no one will come but me. The government knew about it and they were the one who did all the papers to give them a proper burial. While I was there, blinding myself with imagination.

Now, I'm glad Klein is back. One of my reasons to live. And this Auxilium Haven? It'll be closed for a while until I helped Ryan and the literal 'suicide squad'.
