He Who Never Forgets (HWNF)

part 6

LEAH POV:

Bright lights, drunk people, smokes and dancing. Yes, I'm in a club, dancing crazily with my clinic assistant Carla. She said I looked soulless. Is that even a word? So she asked me to join her for fun. This club is good, safer than others because of it tight security. With Juicy Wiggle by Redfoo is now playing, it makes my adrenaline rushed to my whole body plus all the shots that I took..margarita, vodka, tequila and others that I can't even remember, I think that should do it. I walked to the dance floor, dancing and wiggling and twerking also laughing. I'm dancing with Carla like there's no tomorrow.

“Juicy Wiggle!!!!” I shouted and sway my head and butt not caring bout the other people. After sometime, I feel tired and stop dancing but Carla were not around. Now where is she?

Feeling slightly dizzy. No. Heavily drunk, I walked out from the dance floor to search for her but I ended up at the back of the club. Damn. Oooops sorry, I can't control my vocab now. Why the hell I’m out here? Alcohol really works magically.

I decide to go back into the club. Holding the doorknob of the back door, I heard a man grunting in pain. On normal situation I would ignore as I don't know if it's safe or not.  Curiosity killed the cat right, but hey don't blame drunk me. Screw the cat. Like I told you, alcohol really works magically.

So with not so stable steps I walked towards the noise. At the dim corner I saw a man lying on the floor beside the garbage holding his stomach grunting with indescribable pain. As a reflex I went to the man to help him but lucky me, the helpless man suddenly grab me with his one hand on my head and other across my chest. So much for helpless.

“One move I will snap this bitch’s neck”, standing behind me I can hear his dark voice and smell his blood. For a moment there, I'm suddenly become sober and also too panic to realize that the man actually talking to a group of men, 7 people but two of them wore mask. Red and white. I can see them thanks to the not so dark corner. Oh my freakin G. when did these men showed up? Why didn’t I saw them just now?

I'm shaking, I knew this is a bad idea. I knew it. Shit, what am I going to do? I'm gonna get killed just like the cat. Screw me. Bye all my lovely animals. Bye papa, bye Liam no goodbye for Teddy. I could feel myself trembling so hard I almost peed myself. Please don’t make me die in shame. I wanna stay pretty at least even if it is I’m dead.

BANG!

Am I dead already? I didn’t feel pain at all, so this is how it feels when get shot. wait? Isn’t my neck supposed to be break apart? Isn't I supposed to fall or something? The man behind me kneeling and slowly loosen his grip on me. I'm not dead yet? After froze on my spot for a lifetime I turned around to see the man now holding his thigh, his bleeding thigh just like Teddy's shoulder. When I try to hold out a hand to help him, 3 of the guys behind me drag him to the man who wore red mask.

I was too shocked to take any action. Without any warning the red mask man beat him continuously.

I can't watch it anymore, so I did what I should’ve done. I run. Run to any place just to get away from the bad men. By then I heard other footsteps. Are they chasing me now? With my drunk state I can't even run faster.

While crying I just keep running. Liam? Papa? Anyone? Someone please help me! then I saw an alley so I went into that alley but only found a big wall in front. Dead end. Turning my head around frantically I spot a trash can so I went to hide behind it hopefully they didn't found me.

I'm shakin like a penguin in igloo..no..more like a blender that I used to make juice. My heart goin to burst out. Silently crying and praying, I just stayed there, hugging my knees with head bow down and curling up like a ball. Then suddenly, a hand grabbed my shoulder, I let out a loud scream, fright crept in my heart so fast until I didn't even realise that the darkness took me.

~~~~~~

I woke up on a comfy place, it's warm and cozy and with that dark red ceiling but wait. This is not my house. Mine is not dark red or even hospital is not in this luxurious colour. I jolted up from the cozy place looking around me and noticed I'm in a room, not mine, not even Carla's. Where am I?!

In seconds I feel stinging sensation in my brain. Ugghhh...I hate hangover. As I'm still busy coping up with my hangover, last night memories appeared. The red mask man. Feeling panic, I got down from the bed, grabbed all my things and get out from the place which is actually a penthouse but none of it concerns me right now. I hope I didn't do any bad things last night.

~~~~~~~~~~

“Where the fuck have you been Leah?!, do you know how worried we are last night. If dad knows about this he's gonna kill us three. Ughhhhh....I can't believe you do this. This....this..outrageous!”. Liam yelled until his veins is actually going to pop out anytime.

I'm now being scolded by my own brother and his other two unidentical twins. Looking at my appearance now, still wearing the tight black dress last night holding high heel in my hand, hair disarray and face definitely awful..He should be mad. Like crazily mad.

“Yeah....where are you with that tight dress?”, Josh added. With Liam's murderous look right now he just succeeded in adding fuel to the fire. Nice job there Joshy.

“She's with my friend”, David suddenly interrupted after being silent for a while. Three of us now gave him confusing look.

“Why didn't you tell me??”, Liam asked him.

“How can he tell you if your mouth can't stop babbling and cussing since early morning” Josh defended David.

“You know too?” Liam looked at Josh.

“Nope, just being logical and so on” he replied.

David sighed. “Look, I'm sorry I didn't tell you guys but at least she's save”.

“Fine, let us just drop this and you sis...” I looked at Liam who is deadpan serious “No club.”

I continue looking at Liam as he strolled his way to upstairs and Josh went to the kitchen leaving me and David.

“Thanks” I said.

He smiled.

“Don't you wanna know who's with me last night?”.

“let's just say, I think the ‘who’ is a good person” and then he also went to the kitchen.

Yeah. Whoever the person is, he or she is nice. Loud noise of plate falling to the floor snapped me out from my mind.

“Leah!!!...Josh broke your plate!”

“what?! N-no!! David did it. I swear cross my heart!”

Boys.....
