The Human Alpha

Going Out

He puts on his clothes and locks his door once again. As Brian passes at the corridor again he sees the old woman missing and this troubles him. After walking some blocks away from his he reaches at his job and of all the people he wanted to see and interrogate is John. John has been a headache to Brian since the day he saw a call familiar to his phone number on Esther's phone. He opens the door and enters the shop but he keeps looking around trying to see if his boss is around. He sees no one and takes his seat and starts working.

"You look so held up young man, what the problem" her boss was just sitting behind him all this time looking at him, Brian is shocked and wonders how stressed he would be to be so confused that hr could not notice her sitting next to him.

"I am so sorry madam, please forgive me for everything i was so cought up in an emergency situation and had to handle it" he starts explaining himself without even stopping.

"Take it easy son, you come too fast and i dont remember myself asking you about anything"

Brian was so messed up and did not know what to do with all the headache he had. His boss could clearly tell that he was going through hell because he was totally not himself, his clothes were not even in the best condition as normal, his hair was not even kempt and looked pretty messed up.

John enters the room and he is indeed late Brian has been waiting for him all along. He really wants to grab him and deal with him so bad because anger was boiling in him and could not wait because he really was becoming a pain to him.

"Get to work everybody, lets make things running in this place" the manager leaves them allowing them to go on with their job. They sit down and begin their job but Brian really to know what John is up to. They go on with their job but not in a peaceful way at all.

Esther on the other side is having a hard time dealing with her day. She cannot go on with her normal tasks as usual since she is so scared about everything, she is locked between three things that she can tell to no one but just keep for herself. From the sad situation and all the love confusion she could not even have any courage to walk out of her room. At around eleven o'clock she is still in her room and this brothers the rest so much. The children on the other side also become so lonely and as time goes by the orphanage starts become so weird and does not have the same programme they used to have before.

Esther is lying there awake and imagining to have a break from all these. She starts thinking about her pasts and thinks of her family too. She stands up and goes to her bag and takes out an album full of photos. She goes and sits down and start looking on the photos giving her some childhood memories with her dad and mom. She starts thinking and sees that she really needed to see her parents after a very long time. She sees a picture of her and her dad and really misses the moments. All the memories start haunting her. She hears her father's voice talking to her telling her about her marriage issues. The memories gives her more emotions and makes a decision to atleast go home and give herself a break from everything she is going through. She really gathers enough courage and does not tell any one about her plans. She starts gathering her things and packing anything she needed to carry. She had spent of time out with the absence of her parents and it was going to be a big surprise to them and she did not know what to expect from his father since she left home when he was very sick. She really wanted to bring back her strong relationship with her parents especially her father. She had some little cash with her and she has been saving it for a while. After finishing parking everything and prepares to atleast leave her room and go check on the children for a while, her phone rings and she receives it. It was Brian calling and he was indeed having a hard time at job. Just by hearing Brian's voice she really felt like she needed him so much and could not entirely bare with the all situation. They do not talk for long because of what had happened the previous day and they end up the call.

She walks out of the room and heads downstairs. Everything seems to be totally normal and all the activities were going on as usual and this almost made her feel invisible. She started having a feeling like she was not of much help at the place and this made her not feel guilty about her entire plan of going back home. She passes at the kitchen and have a chat with Magdalena who was the best one and most friendly among them all in the kitchen. She then heads back to her room but she cannot seem to make up her mind on telling anyone because something really makes her feel like she will be escaping and it would not be so fair at all. Esther enters the shower and spends around thirty minutes in the shower. Water runs down her beautiful hair, her eyes closed, just feeling like a bird ready to leave a cage. She thinks about her entire life from the moment she was a little girl and sees herself since the first day she knelt down at a Catholic church and swore to be a nun.she feels she has been living in a total darkness and as she goes on thinking about all these and at a point he even thinks about Benjamin, its now a long time and she is living a whole different life ,this was the time Catholics believed the devil was in control of everything.
