Pulling You Out From Darkness

Prologue

Madilim. Walang kahit na ano. Walang ilaw.
Walang pintuan. Walang labasan. Parang akong nasa loob ng isang kwarto.

Hanggang sa....

May napansin ako

Maraming tao nagbubulong-bulungan. Nag-uusap. Mapanakit. Matatalim ang mga mata. Mga masasakit magsalita. Mapanghusga.

Ito. Ito ang mundong ginagalawan ko.

"You! stop flirting with my boyfriend" she slapped me and pulled my hair.

"Hey!stop" awat ni Bryliene sa kanya.

"She's not flirting me. STOP BEING JEALOUS"he shouted

"Do you think I'm gonna listen to you?who do think you are?CHEATER"She fired back,nanlilisik ang kanyang mga mata.

"I'm sorry Vailey, we're just friends, he just hugged me because I was crying, he just comforted me"I explained.

"And do you think paniniwalaan kita? " She slapped me with all her force, I tried to stand up but.....

My hands are shaking. I'm trembling. My heart is beating so fast. I'm hyperventilating.
I can't breathe. I feel anxious.

One day I woke up on a hospital bed, confused why I am here again, I let out a heavy sighed.

Nandito na naman ako.

Bumukas ang pintuan nang aking tingnan isang nurse ang bumungad sakin.

"Uhmm?Ma'am here's your medicine" inabotan niya ako ng isang gamot.

"Miss?Why am I here again?"I asked.

"Ma'am you passed out kanina"she answered

"Oh?where's mom?

"Umalis po bumili ng pagkain"

"Oh thank you" I said in a soft voice.

----------------------------------------------------------

"Hey love"my mom greeted me

"Oh hi mom"

"Are you okay now?" She asked

"Uhmmm kinda"

"Love please stay away from any situation like that again ha? You literally passed out kanina"

"I will"

----------------------------------------------------------

Next day.

Nandito ako sa mall nag-iikot until I saw Vailey.

Aalis na sana ako kaso nakita niya na ako.

"Oh?Nandito ang malanding babae na umagaw sa boyfriend ko"

I ignored her.

"Ba't hindi mo ko tinitingnan?Are you ashamed?"she pulled my hair.

"Aray Vail please stop, I don't want to make a scene here." I cried.

"Oh?really?then guess what? I'm making one for you" she slapped me and pushed me.

"Please stop!" Lahat ng tao nakatingin sa amin, nagbubulong-bulungan ni isa walang umawat sa amin, it's like they're enjoying the scene that we're making kulang na lang ay bumili sila ng popcorn habang pinapanood kami.

Sinampal niya ako ng sinampal hanggang sa nawalan ako ng malay, when I opened my eyes I saw her at lahat ng tao nakabulagta sa sahig nalulunod sa kanilang mga sariling dugo.

Tiningnan ko ang aking sarili puno rin ng dugo ang damit ko and then I felt my side aching and when I looked at it may sugat ako and when I looked at my hands I was holding a knife and there's blood on it.
