Trigger Warning: BLOOD, GORE, & SUICIDE CONTENT AHEAD.
...................................................
"CARSOOOOOON!!!!!" I screamed in nerve-racking fear.
A hideous woman with dark, long fingernails holds Carson's unconscious body. She's wet from head to toe, and I don't think it's just water. There are blood stains discoloring my floor tiles.
She kept stabbing, and stabbing, and stabbing his stomach as his own blood's squirting everywhere. Kada baon ng kutsilyo sa balat niya, nararamdaman ko ang sakit na parang ako ang sinasaksak niya. Now my whole body keeps trembling, as my tears won't stop falling.
I can't believe I'm seeing this.
His chest skin breaks open when she slits her knife to it. I can’t imagine how much veins and tissues had been ripped by its blade. The sound of his blood dripping on the ground keeps echoing in my mind. And now that her target is his neck, binaon niya ito sa gitna at tinaga as if she'll tear his head and body apart.
The echoing noise gets louder while her knife keeps digging. My heart started panicking, my mind was spaced out, I’m literally getting chills and I don't know why I'm not doing anything!
"TAMA NAAAAAAA!"
Her stabbing was halted with that desperate plea. And the moment her head faced me, dumoble ang takot na nararamdaman ko. 'Yung panginginig, 'yung kaba, 'yung kabog ng dibdib, lahat!
Ano nang gagawin niya? Ano nang gagawin ko?
She tossed Carson's body on the floor like a piece of trash, then went in front of me in a flash. As her pure crimson, bloody eyes pierces mine in gray, sunod-sunod na nanindig ang mga balahibo ko.
She grinned at me creepily, with blood dripping from her teeth. I want to run towards the kitchen to get a knife. But I can't move as if I’m paralyzed. Why do I feel heavy? Why am I stuck?
"TULOOOOOONG!!!" I screamed while forcing my body to move. "Lubayan mo kami ni Carson! LEAVE!"
She showed me the knife she used sa pagpaslang kay Carson. That’s when I knew it would be the end of me.
Marahan niyang pinadadaan ang matulis na dulo ng kutsilyo mula sa leeg ko pababa sa pusod ko. Mas pinatindig pa nito ang mga balahibo sa katawan ko. Halos mawalan na ‘ko ng pag-asa nang mahagip ng mata ko si Carson na hindi na gumagalaw.
"Carson, gumising ka diyan, please,” I tearfully called. “Lumaban ka…"
Hindi ako sanay na makita siyang ganito.
If my dream is just playing with me as usual, please! Please lang gisingin niyo na ‘ko! Tulungan niyo kami!
I faced this horrifying woman…"Tama na please…" mangiyak-iyak kong bulong. She just grinned and slowly led her head beside my cheeks. “...lubayan mo na kami.”
Feeling her slow breaths on my neck gives me goosebumps. Pilit ko pa ring tinapangan ang loob ko dahil ayaw kong mamatay nang walang kalaban-laban. Pilit ko pa ring nilabanan anuman 'tong pumipigil sa'king gumalaw.
Pero hindi man lang ako pinagbigyan ng tadhana nang tuluyan na binutas ng kutsilyo niya ang sikmura ko.
"NOOOOOOO!" I screamed mula sa kaduluduluhan ng lalamunan ko. Napaluhod at napayuko ako ng matang napapikit at kamay na nasa tiyan.
The sky hit its drum of thunder that echoed so deafening. I don't know if I'm freezing due to the cold breeze around or because of fear anymore. I was just too frustrated that I covered my head hurting together with my heart.
