SILENCE

Chapter 2

I was annoyed by the alarm clock. I tapped my bed looking my phone so I can turned it off. I checked my phone and its already 7 o'clock in the morning. I rushed to go up in bed and take a bath afterwards. I brushed my teeth, doing my skin care routine and prepare my bag for school. I checked my phone again, and literally shock in disbelief that today is saturday. Again, its just Saturday. So there is no class today. I laughed at myself thinking that I am so forgetul. I remember that I have to go home now in my home town. Exactly as I leave our room, my father has arrived to pick me up. I'm glad I took a bath and doing my morning rituals. As I arrived at home, nothing changes. It is dirty, there are lot of poops and pees of our pets around our living room, dining room and in the kitchen. I sighed in horror. Another frustrated day today. I relaxed for a minute so that I can gain more energy to clean the house. My whole saturday is just cleaning the house, like mopping the floor, washing dishes, sweeping around the house and other some stuffs to be clean. After the cleaning, I am really so tired and fell asleep.
It's sunday. As I woke up, I am in my bed right now. I guess my father moved me in here. I checked my phone to see what's on my schedule today. I have to work on my assignments, go to church and prepare some stuffs for monday. My boyfriend just message me. "Yhadz, see you soon" I smiled as I read the message. Every sunday, we go to the church together. Fastforward.
Its monday. I went to the hospital early because its our schedule for work emersion. I was assigned to the delivering room. I assist here and that until the head of the baby appears. I am so scared of being pregnant. I witnessed numerous times where pregnant women in delivery room suffer from pain. After the work, I noticed Becca and Lix walking towards me. I stared at them blankly thinking that I was so angry at them. Until they stopped, and now they are infront of me. I coldly stared at them and leave them behind before they can start to speak up. I am not ready to hear any of them. I have to be alone for some time. I want to meditate. So I was planning to be alone, I went to the adoration chapel to pray. I want to clear up my mind. I close my eyes, hearing only the thump in my heart. " God forgive me for what I have sinned to you. Please bless me and guide me in my everyday journey. Help those people in need and be safe from harm" I spat with my thoughts. After I visited the adoration chapel, I noticed a Museum across to the church. I went there and awwee the amazing world out there. I saw the ancient and old things. They are also pictures and paintings. What I struck most is the picture of a beautiful lady. I can see many emotions of her. I closely look at her and she seems so familiar. Hmm I jumped at horror when someone cleared a throat beside me. "I'm sorry I startled you" the man said. I sighed in relief. I thought its a ghost or what. He started talking again while I continue to look at the sight of the picture. "She is Aliyah Trent. She owned this beautiful museum. She's very popular with men because she was a prostitute." I couldn't believe of what I heard. He continues, "My grandmother told me that she is a good woman with a dream. Her dreams faded away because of her mother. Her mother sold her off to a rich man. As she grew up, the old man sell her off with men. She is living miserably. Until she untie her chain from the kind of life she had when the old man died." I couldn't help but pity of her. I look at the man who's story telling me, he is attractive. I guess he is in his 50's now. "Did she found a man who love her?" I asked him. He stared at the picture and said. "I hope she's happy where she is right now. I hope she found the one in another life" he replied. I stared pitily at the woman. Well I don't believe at reincarnation in life. But if there is, I hope she's in good life where she is free and have different life far from life before. I roamed around the corners at the museum. Liking the wonders of history. I am glad Ms. Aliyah Trent build this beautiful museum. I started to like ancient and old history. That's why when I arrived home, I googled her name and reading her story. I read the story for hours until I fell asleep.
As I woke up, I had weird feeling. I think I dream a weird dream last night about what I have read the story. I stopped reading it for weeks but its the same dream again. I can't focus of my school because of the weird noises I heard and the same dream every night. Its been months with the same weird encounters Ive been through. So I planned to make an appointment to a Psychologist to check my condition. Its getting worse every night and I don't want to sleep. My mother told me to check my condition so I scheduled an appointment at the hospital. My boyfriend just pick me up to go to the hospital. Maybe my condition is just form of stress because of insomnia. I relaxed a little bit and rested my head in his shoulder while waiting here outside the clinic of a psychologist.
