Chain 9

Trapped

"From now on, you'll work for me."

"You'll pay for what you've done."

"Save yourself to save your mother."

"I'll train you. This will be your life."

I immediately opened my eyes when I felt my right arm hurt. The white ceiling welcomed me. I look around. Mabilisan akong bumangon ngunit nakaramdam ako ng pagkahilo.

Paulit-ulit na nagrerehistro sa utak ko ang mga katagang iyon. Iyon mismo ang sinabi sa akin ni Mr. Megarry bago palang ako makapasok sa Dungeon. I was 9 years old at that time. And my mother! I remembered my mom!

"Oh my god, Clia! Thank God you are awake!"

The door opened then Kendall entered. She came near me and start checking me out.

"How are you feeling? Don't move yet. Are you okay now?" She asked worriedly.

I don't need to ask where am I. I'm at the hospital. Damn! Tiningnan ko ang kung anong nakakabit sa 'kin sa likuran ng palad ko. And with just one snap, memories flashed on my mind.

How he rushed to the emergency room while he's unconscious and full of his own blood. Those tubes attached to my brother's body. How he tried to fight but he wasn't able to survive. Doctors didn't save him. In this kind of place where Kuya lost his life. That's how my life started to become miserable.

Kung sana ako nalang 'yung namatay. Kung sana ako nalang 'yung nasagasaan ng Van. Kung sana hindi nalang ako niligtas ni Kuya. Kung sana hindi naging matigas ang ulo ko... Masaya pa sana ang pamilya ko.

Then right after my Kuya's funeral, my 6-year-old younger sister was missing. She was kidnapped. Nakaraan ang isang taon ngunit hindi pa rin siya nahahanap. Ang akala ko rin magiging tahimik na ang buhay namin but I was wrong. Armed men attacked our house. That night, where my mom pushed me away because she wants me to be with Papa. That night, where my Papa sacrificed his own life to save me. That was the night when I lost my family as well as I lost myself.

"Clia, I'm asking you. How are you feeling? Oh my god. Please speak? Are you out of your mind now?" Kendall said.

"Who brought me here?"

My hands were trembling when I tried to move. Shit. I want to get out of here.

"Zarvick Izra. Right after you collapsed, he carried you immediately and rushed you here. Isn't it sweet?–"

Natigil siya nang tanggalin ko ng marahas ang dextrose na nasa likuran ng palad ko. Mabilis din akong bumaba sa hospital bed.

"Oh my god, Climate! What are you doing? You're not yet stable. Doctors will check you–"

"I won't die even if I'm not here right? Besides, I don't trust them."

"What are you saying–"

"Where are my clothes?" Tanong ko nang mapansin kong nakasuot ako ng hospital dress. I gulped. I badly need to get out of here! Ayaw ko na rito!

"Climate, you still need a proper check-up if you're now–" hindi ko na siya pinatapos.

"Fuck," mura ko bago na nagtatakbo palabas ng kwarto.

Pupunta na sana ako sa elevator ngunit alam kong maaabutan ako ni Kendall. I know that she will stop me. I understand that she's just worried but she won't understand me. Bumaba nalang ako sa hagdanan.

"Miss, miss! Are you a patient here?" Tanong ng nakasalubong kong nurse pero hindi ko na pinansin.

Mabilis kong nakita ang daanan papuntang exit ngunit narinig ko ang pagtawag sa akin ni Kendall.
