 “There are voices that want to be heard. So much mentioned but you can’t find the words. The scent of magic, the beauty that’s been when love was wilder than the wind.”

Sixteenth Chapter

      Demons in the walls…

      Demons in the halls…

      Demons in my mind…

      Demons you will find…”

      Those words are written inside a  book that a five year old read. I don’t know why, but it’s there. The book is about a man named Noah but all of his faces are erased. A hooded man gave it to me on my 6th birthday. I didn’t know why I accepted it. My parents hid it the moment they found out what was inside of it. I cried at first but after a week, I moved on. A couple of months had passed, and the same book appeared in my locker. I was shocked at first, I don’t know if I should tell it to my parents or not. When I got home, they weren’t there. So I went upstairs and hid the book under my bed. I didn’t know that I had fallen asleep.

      When I woke up, I was inside a closet. It was so dark and I can’t see anything. I was about to go out but I heard a crashing sound. I took a peek and saw my mother on the ground. I started to whimper and I was about to shout but a hand covered my mouth.

      “Do not cry. Do not shout. I will not hurt you.” A man said. I nod at him then he removed his hand. I quickly look at him and saw that it was the same man who gave me the book.

      “It’s you..” I whisper. He smiled at me and nod. “Stay here beside me. He might see you…” the nice man said. His eyes are red as my mom’s lipstick.

      “Where is she?! I know you’re hiding her !! Where the hell is she?!” my father yelled at my mother. I know that it’s not him because the color of his eyes are different. My father doesn’t have a pure white eyes. And his voice is not like that.

      “Why is he doing that? Why is he hurting my mother?” I asked the man. He just shook his head, “I don’t know little human. But don’t worry, he will not kill her.”

      “Please help her..” I begged at him.

      “I can’t…” he answered me. But I’m just six years old. I don’t understand his answer.

      “Why not?” I was in the midst of crying. He hold my face and made me look at him.

      “We are different. The thing inside your father, and me is different.” He tried to explain to me.

      “So you’re not human?” I ask him. Curiosity ran down my voice. He nod his head. “Are you an alien?”

      He laughed at my question, “No. I am much more weirder than that…”

      “You cannot hide her from me !! I will find her and I will kill her !!” my father shouted then a bright light appeared. The man in the closet covered my eyes and when he removed them, Im back on my bed.

      Two weeks. It’s been two weeks since I was brought here. Brendrict comes almost every day but I just ignore him. The drug they’re giving me is making me numb. One time, I stood at the center of my room and just stare at the clock for hours. I have my own nurse, Nurse Sally, she is very nice but I know she thinks that I’m crazy. Martin visit me but every time he arrive, its either I’m asleep or I’m in my insane mood. Yes, I have my insane mood, thanks to Brendrict. He still plays with my mind.
