HAZE |🔼{ON HOLD}

CHANGES

Day 5

I woke up with sun shining through the window and directly hitting my eyes. I immidiately closed my eyes so that they could adjust to the brightness. I sat up on the bed and looked in the mirror in front of the bed.

I stared at myself for a while and I looked horrible. I haven't looked this horrible since--since then... I sighed. My hair looked like some birds tried to make nest on my head, like the bad hair of the character played by 'Laura Marano' in the movie 'The Bad Hair Day'.

My face has dirt all over it, especially area under my eyes. Well I have dirt on my neck and hands as well. I really want a bath right now.

My clothes are not in any better condition. I have some black liquid kind of thing on my sweatshirt which smells like diesel or something. It was ripped in some places and have small holes on it as well. It was one of my best sweatshirt - it was grey in colour with the shades of black from down and had a cool quote on it - 'Don't interrupt me when I'm busy ignoring you'.

And my outside appearance described my inner feelings precisely to the point. So you can guess how much miserable I feel right now.

I feel really weak and I am starving. I can even eat insects right now. Bear Grills instincts have started to kick in. I don't know how many days has it been since I ate something.

Then I looked around to enquire just where the hell am I. I remember being saved by Kyle then he said something.......

Something about my kidnapping being his fault..... Realization struck me amd now I remember how I went crazy and berserk yesterday. He must have thought that I am crazy. Well.... It's not like it was my fault.

Now that I think about it, how was my kidnapping his fault. I don't really get it.

I sat there thinking about it for a while. And in few seconds everything came rushing back. Our conversation from yesterday, what all he said, what all I heard, just about everything.

I still can't believe that it's the truth. He is my Gaurdian!! Really! But my mom and dad never mentioned him. And what kind of info was he talking about?

I don't know a thing about it and why would my parents have a kind of info that would put their life in danger. I mean my parents were just normal office workers, atleast that's what I know.

Most importantly, is it ok for me to trust him? I mean it's not like I'm really gonna live here but atleast I should know if he is safe to be around.

But he is an Officer, of course it would be safe or why else my parents would trust me with him.

I got off the bed, I am still feeling kind of dizzy but I tried to reach the door knob so that I can go outside and find myself a washroom for a little bit of clean up.

Even though I am staggering in my steps but still atleast I am moving. Suddenly something hit my leg and I fell down. I look behind me and found that I have tripped over a cardboard box.

I sat up and look into the box. It's filled with id cards which have different names on all of them BUT....... same face.
They all have Kyle's face on them.

I shuffled through the box and found all kind of ids. There is an id for being a private detective, for an office worker, for a doctor, an engineer, a cleaner at office and many more.

What is all this? What's with these id cards!?

I looked up and there was one more id card on a table placed beside the mirror. I picked up the id card and scanned it. I can feel the shocked expression on my face.
