Where Your Secrets Hide

SECRET 14

"A strange-things happened tonight at the Westhood Hospital that causes pain, fear and grief for everyone. There was an electricity cutout for 3 minutes and when the electricity went back all the furniture, and objects was found disturbingly misplaced. 3 doctors and 33 patients are announce and found dead after the electricity cut out that the cause is still unknown. This is the first time this strange occurrence happened in WestHood town.

The WestHood town that was known as innocent, for family place and for happy memories are now changed into a curse town, and it is all after a boy from WestHood high went missing for 2 weeks now. People are wondering if there is a connection between the kid who was missing to this strange event. Is there something more about this case? Can the police and politics find something disturbing? Or this is all just a coincidence?"

What happened tonight here in the hospital is now viral and now a talk of the town, actually not just talk of the town, but talk of the whole Sydney.

We immediately pack our things for us to go home.

After packing these stuff and clothes of mine, we immediately get into the car and my uncle drove us home. "If this happened again, I am never going back here." My uncle said. "Gerald!"" Auntie said. "I mean, we." He said. "We?" I ask uncle. "Me and your aunt Brenda is planning to get you out of here. That is the reason why we came here in the first place. We're going to tell it to you the night we're having dinner, but you got poisoned so we never had a chance to tell you the reason why we're here." Uncle said.

I don't know if I'm going to be happy or not.

But...

"This is my home, this is where my mom died, where I grew up, where my life belongs to." I answered. "Where your life belongs to? This is a horrible place! This is more terrible than the Riverdale!" My uncle answered back. "Riverdale is a series." I said in confusion. "If Riverdale is real life, this is the real Riverdale. Look! A boy who is missing who is probably dead! 3 doctors and 33 patients died at the same time tonight! You think this is where you belong? You belong to California, where life is much better than this shitty place!" He shouted. " The place isn't shitty, the people are." I said back. "Then you are shitty person." He said.

I was shocked when he said that. I never knew my uncle have this side of him. From his innocent looks, I never doubted his innocence, but now... I am not sure anymore.

"Gerald!" Aunt Brenda said. "What? You still care about him after all these years? After all those years?" Uncle said. "Of course! I still care about him, whatever happened in the past, still affects me until these days!" She answered back. "I thought you move on? You never really love us isn't it?" Uncle ask her. "Of course I do! Because you stayed in my life!" She answered. "So you only love me because we stayed?"

They keep arguing, and arguing, and arguing.

I never know that they fight a lot. Well, I don't, because I never really know them. How could they deceive me like this? How could I believe their acts?

They keep arguing until I remember how mom and dad fought back then. They are bringing back my worst memories. But... What are they talking about? I felt like something happened in the past, and it is connected to me. Or I just assumed it?

"Shut up both of you!" I yell. They immediately stop arguing. "I am not going anywhere. This is my life, no one controls it except for me." I said.

After that, the whole ride is quiet. No one tries to talk, no speak, just silence.

After miles of driving we arrived the house.

When I step my foot outside the car, I felt that, something happened here, like something is wrong. I walk towards the door and uses my key to open it, but... It wasn't lock. I look back and saw uncle and Aunt Brenda fighting again but in their lower voices. I pay attention to the door and slowly opened the door, I slowly went inside the house without opening the lights, because someone might hear me, or see me.

I know Reynaldo, he is a responsible person, he can't just leave the door unlock. I just keep walking until I step onto something. I slowly look down and that's where my fear went up my head, I scream as loud as I can, the fear continues to eat me.

My tears run down onmy cheek,, my whole body is shaking because of nervousness, but sweat is running down from my forehead.

The light opened and I hear them screaming.

They run towards him, they hug him and force him to woke up, they cried, we cried.

"Reynaldo!!" My Uncle yelled his name because of pain...

I sob and cries at the same time.

Reynaldo...

My cousin is f*****g dead.
