I ONLY HAVE TRICKS TO DEFEAT MY ENEMIES

“Lil sis” I heard voices, but wait how come I can hear one? I did die, didn’t I? “Euno” “WAH” I felt trapped with those little thin arms—HUH? I can hear three distinct voices, they are wailing to be precise. I don’t know what’s happening around me. I try to open my eyes slowly. “Eldest Brother, look!” a miniature sound of a young lad from beside me and then I see he’s the one that keeps shaking my body.  “She’s awake” “Elder sister is awake” followed by a wee voice of a child. “OUCH!” A deep pain assaulted my head and some fragments of memories came surging in. I keep taking long breaths to stabilize myself. After a while, I slowly open my eyes, and confusingly scrutinize my surroundings. There I see three pairs of eyes, eagerly staring at me. “Ugh,” I whimpered. “Sis it’s okay, it’s okay” the oldest one, wearing a faded blue loose-fitting robe, held my shoulder trying to support my body. Ah! This is the body’s oldest brother.  “Euno don’t sit, don’t sit” the one who holds my hand keeps on shaking his head “You can lie down first, okay? Don’t force yourself” I look at him and realize that he's supposed to be my ‘twin’. I keep on staring at them, at a loss on what to do. After a few draws of breath, I finally smiled at them saying, “I’m okay.” “Are you really okay, elder sister? Please don’t scare me like that again '' the youngest of them said while slowly making his way to hug me. There I see in his eyes a great amount of fear and grief. It seems to tell me that he could not take another blow if he suffered another scene like this. I lift my hand and touch his face—such a sweet child that brings warmth in her yet unknowingly pain her heart too because he was just a child yet he suffered. “Shh—it's okay, it’s okay” trying to wipe those tears. This is obviously a 5 years-old child yet so mature that he keeps on stopping his tears to fall because he fears that I will be hurt watching him like this.  “I’m sorry Cree, this will not happen again—I promised,” I said while rubbing his back because he was having a hiccup trying to stop his tears. “Cree stop crying and let your elder sister take a rest, okay,” said Allardy while trying to lift up Cree. The latter nodded and let himself be carried by our eldest brother. I warmly smile at them while they are going out. “Here water, drink some first” Seeley handed me a wooden cup made of bamboo. I took a sip and exhaled a few puffs of breath. “Are you okay now?” He worriedly asks while drawing another cup of water in the clay jar. “Bal” I sweetly called him and he was shaken, he staggered a few steps then dropped the cup while hurriedly running towards me. “You really scare me, Bal” I can see the water slowly forming in his eyes. As they are twins, he was much closer to her, and adding the fact that she was the only girl in them, he was at his wit's end when he saw her lying on the ground like a cold corpse. I smile comfortingly at him. He only released me when he heard some footsteps coming to us.  “Mis—Bellona are you okay?” When I turn my head I see a middle-aged man hastily walking to us with his crutch.  “I’m okay Uncle Jiang, no need to worry” then I look at them and innocently blink my eyes.  “I think I need to rest first, I’m a bit sleepy” then gradually close my eyes. I can feel someone is tucking me in with the quilt and soon enough, I can hear a descending amount of footsteps getting farther away from me. I needed to sort my mind first. I don’t know how I managed to get here but since I’m already there I will live my life and follow the course of it.
