WHO AM I TO JUDGE?

CHAPTER 7

Quickly as lightning, I ran back towards the kitchen. Due to the pitch black darkness, it was really difficult to navigate my way through.

Then suddenly, I heard a loud thump above my head, and then everything went black.

I was lying in the kitchen table when I came to my senses. Both my foot were tied with a string and my hands were tied with ropes. Screaming for help was not possible too because my mouth was covered by a red cloth. That time I knew it was really a bad move to let myself get caught, because there was no one to protect Meldy.

I glanced my visions everywhere around me, luckily the old woman was not there.

"Okay think! Be calm you can do this." I said to myself.

I glanced again my vision for the second time in the kitchen and found a sharp metal edge right beside the cupboard. Immediately, I rolled my body down and I fell down in the floor. It was painful, but I had no choice but to deal with it. Slowly but surely, I crawled myself into the sharp metal edge. I placed both hands in the edge and started rubbing the ropes. It took 5 mins for me to finally remove it, and then afterwards I took a knife and sliced the restrictions in my feet.

Without any delays, I went upstairs to check on Meldy. It was really quiet upstairs, surprisingly odd. I didn't hear any noise from the old woman nor Meldy's scream. Slowly, I went to our room but there was no one. I panicked a little bit and looked everywhere to find some possible clues. Then the room of the old woman came straight to my thoughts.

"There in that bastard's room." I said to myself.

I grabbed the metal pole, Meldy was holding earlier that night. I stretched a little bit, and without a doubt went to the hallway and then straight to the old woman's room. In the door of the old woman's room, it was slightly open and there was a light inside. Carefully I sneaked myself to the door and peeked through.

"You know young lady, the first time I laid my eyes on you, I knew for sure that you got the same face and features of my old daughter." The old woman said as she brushed Meldy's hair while sitting in a rocking chair with a sharp metal scissor pointing right beside Meldy's left neck. Meldy was so terrified, that she can't move nor go against her will.

With a scissor in her neck, she knew that she got no other choice but to obey and follow the orders of the old woman.

"She was about your age, when I brushed her hair that night. I can still remember the exact feeling and memory that day. When I saw her nape while brushing her hair, my stomach started growling, It was so delicious to watch. So later that night while she was asleep, to satisfy my cravings, I slit her throat open and chopped her. I can still remember the feeling and taste of young meat. It was tender, It was juicy, It was delicious," She said as she laughed while brushing Meldy's hair.

"But my husband found out what happened to our only child. He called me psycho and tried to hurt me. He even tried to call the police. So what did i do? I took a large shovel from the backyard and smashed it to his skull,"

"It was really easy, and because of that, meal was not a problem for 10 months." she laughed, laughing in a psychopathic way.

"This woman is messed up in the head." I said to myself.

"This the reason why she lured both us on her home, made us comfortable, and gave us me.... mee... at." Then I remember the dinner we had earlier that evening.

"Fck we ate human meat!."

The disgust that I felt made me furious. The old woman didn't just planned to assassinate us, she also served us human meat.

"This is unforgivable." I said to myself while keeping myself cool despite being furious.

In a wall beside the old woman's room, there was another room, it looked like an old office. I didn't know what came over me, but I feel a wind pushing me to go to that room. So what I did, I searched the room and found a gun lying in the table drawers. It was an old 9mm revolver. It also has bullets in it so it was a lucky find.

"There are six ammunitions here in this rotating cylinder. I must make sure to spend these six shots wisely." I said to myself while putting the gun in my back to conceal it.

I knew it was the old man's ghost helping me escape from the great danger that I am facing. He gave me signs to find myself some protections against her twisted partner.

"Thank you old man." this is the statement that I said while preparing myself. I never fired a gun before, so trying it for the first time in a real situation made my bones melt like butter. Despite the nervous feeling, I had no choice but to fight back. It's either kill or be eaten.

"Ok this is it, dying is not an option today."
