“I ran to another pack and settled there as a slave, just so can survive but look at you, you grew up being served and treated like a princess, and now you act as if you care about the pack! You do not care about the pack, you care about your position! Everything will be taken away from you very soon, and you will be left alone with nothing!” "Keep quiet Brenda!" I felt hatred aroused in me. This time my hatred for Brenda has no limit anymore. I glared at her, I wanted to go close to her and tear her apart with my hands. Don't you ever speak about my dad the way you just did? My father struggled to get to where we are now, you have no right to talk ill about us?" "So you were the one that set a trap for me in the jungle?" I stare at her quietly, I secretly wished to hear no. "Yes!! I did it because I hate you, the sight of you disgusts me so badly, I want you to disappear from this earth, why can't you just die?" She said too much already and I just could not listen to her anymore, so I decided to start wrestling with her in the sea. Immediately I remembered how she clumsily went into the water, which meant she already lost her swimming skills. And she hasn't fully recovered. I saw it already so I'll definitely win the wrestle. When I remembered this, I became bold to wrestle with her, it boosted my confidence immediately. When we were fighting we kept splashing the water violently, without pausing. My eyes were turning very red because the hatred was getting more obvious. Everything I thought of was how to get rid of Brenda, she is very annoying and stupid I cannit stand her anymore, but surprisingly Brenda's movements were shocking, I was not expecting her to be as skillful as she appeared because of her injury. She didn't feel hindered by her injury at all. Then I realized her old injury did not surface, she was only pretending all through. Everything was an act, she planned all these from the start. I finally realized it was a trap from the start, she planned everything and I stupidly fell for it. It felt like I had started what will not end soon, I should have taken my steps with caution. My ankle was already injured so I couldn't move very well inside the water like I usually did. Suddenly Brenda threw a heavy punch at my face, I couldn't control myself anymore because of the heavy wave. When u was still struggling with the punch she kicked me again on my abdomen. I felt the pain immediately, it really hurt, tears were trying to prick my eyes but I didn't let it fall. I could not breathe anymore, so I sank into the water motionless. When I was struggling to survive, Brenda stepped on my back and pushed me deeper into the water. "Argh!" I couldn't stop myself from screaming, and I gulped the water forcefully, it gushed into my throat immediately. I was slowly sinking into the water, I was going very deep already. But I was not ready to give up, I struggled as I tried to swim upwards, but because of Brenda's leg on my back, I couldn't swim easily. I felt a faint pain that crippled me, every second in the water felt like endless suffering. I couldn't help it anymore, I was too weak so I could only sink deeper. Obviously this will be my end, why must it be my enemy that killed me, am I really not a match for her? I could not think about anything else but my death. Suddenly I felt a strong feeling of hatred. I decided to struggle so she doesn't suppress me with her feet anymore. I struggled to keep my head straight without minding the pain I was feeling. I breathed out and went deeper into the water then I was able to swim away from Brenda's foot. The water wasn't clear anymore, I was already too deep into the water that I could not sight Brenda from where I was, so definitely she will not be able to sight me as well. I struggled to let my eyes do the duty of searching if Brenda could see me, just then I sighted Brenda's silhouette. There was a distance between us, but she didn't look off guard. I can't make the same mistake I made earlier. She did not bother to move away from where she was, she remained on that same spot for a while without leaving. If I mistakenly raise my head above the water she will definitely sight me, I just survived a bear death I cannot risk to face another one I have been holding my breath for a long time now. It feels like my lungs explode sooner, if I continue holding my breath. I suddenly sighted a big piece of driftMackenzie moving towards the surface. It'll be very useful to me, I'll use it as a shield to help support me here. This time the urge to survive struck me heavily, I struggled to drag my body up, I have never been IN such a situation before. I cannot die now, I can't let Brenda win me like this. I must survive. While thinking about all these I finally raised my head above the water, and I held onto the driftMackenzie with all my strength. The Mackenzie was wide enough to support me well. I gasped upon raising my head. I am sure Brenda didn't notice me because of the drift Mackenzie cover. I fainted on the beach while I swam ashore slowly. I looked up and sighted the sky, but I didn't see it well because my vision was blurred. Brenda actually tried to kill me today, but I don't have any evidence about it so I cannot report what happened today. The injury on my ankle is also from a sea stone, if I accuse her, she'll not be held responsible, I may even be blamed for my carelessness while swimming. I cannot make any hasty decisions now. I have no other choice but to wait for a better opportunity. At least I didn't die, I actually thought I would die. I still have time to achieve my goal, and next time I'll make sure I am more careful.
