Episode 3
572 Words
I don't think I can handle this anymore.The pain,the harassment ...I've already been r***d and I'm not going to allow it happen again!
With my small bag in hand,I tiptoe out of my room successfully.I make sure no sound is made as I make it through the main gate.I don't stop to stare at the place i've lived for a whole year.I could never called this place 'home' because it never felt like one.Living in this house always felt like hell and I can't take it!
Walking through the snow and shivering,I have absolutely nowhere to go.One thing is for sure,this cold January winter weather is far better than the hell of a house I stayed in.What do I do?Where do I go from here?My mind is racing a million Miles per second.
It isn't until the horn brings me back to reality that I realize the car in front of me. I should feel scared but I don't.I don't feel anything except numbness.Numbness of my brain,my body,everything.The door opens and a young man walks to me alarmed.
"I'm so sorry,I didn't notice you there.What are you doing out here all alone?It's freezing!"
"I hate everything I live for"I want to say but my mouth doesn't open.His hand grips mine and practically pulls me to his car.I don't protest at all.At least,I don't say anything.
"Hi!I'm Danon Walker.What's your name?"My eyes bulge in surprise.Did he just ask of my name?No one really cared about me.No one asked me anything before.
"Please talk to me!"He begs"I'm not a kidnapper"
"Clod-Clodovea"I mutter
"Um,okay.I'm taking you to my place and then I'll take you home tomorrow okay?"Did he just say home?I don't have one. He expects a response from me but I don't give him one
....
"Clodovea,honey,go back to your room now"Mom says. I'm terrified
"You've made the right choice Bryan,goodbye!"
"Dad!"I scream my lungs out
"Goodbye Clara!" James frowns before pulling the trigger.
"No!" I sob
"Yes,Clodovea!"He laughs bitterly
''N-No" I hear Angel Whisper
''Mom!"Angel and I sob
"Hey girls No need to cry okay?They are gone.I'm generous enough to allow you join them in their miserable graves"That stupid smirk takes over his face again as points the gun at Angel.
I'm thrown back to reality when a hand shakes me.It was a dream.A horrible one at that.
"Clod,are you okay"He cups my face.My hair is damp with sweat.I jump into his arms.
"They,th-they killed m-mom and-and Dad and An-Angel I saw them.They died in front of me"I sob.His hands pat my back as I weep into his shirt.I feel my eyes get heavy and I slowly fall asleep in his arms.
...
"I made breakfast,I..."
"Th-thank you"I mutter
"Are your parents really dead?"He asks calmly and I nod
"I'm so sorry about that.Don't you have any relative?"He gives me an apologetic look and I sigh
I don't know why I decide to share my story with him but I do anyway.I pour out my heart to him in a way I haven't done to anyone else.
"I'm so sorry you had to go through all that Clod.How old are you?"
"Thirteen"
"actually,my sister is a psychologist.She can help you.I'll take you to her.I know she'll be glad to"He smiles and I nod
"I'm sorry for bothering you with my troubles"I mutter and he shakes his head.
"No,it's okay.I understand how you feel.You're a little girl and you're going through so much already."
