I woke up from my sleep when I heard a series of gunshots coming from below our house.Because of too much worry, I got up from bed, rubbed my eyes and quickly walked to the door of my room.With a trembling hand, I slowly reached for the lock, but before I could touch the door handle, it opened on its own. Fear and shock, I took a step back.
It was my sister!
"Klemea, hide!!. Quick!" My sister Klara said with a trembling voice. Fear could be seen on her face. My sister slightly peeked outside the door and closed it carefully, then she looked at me. Wide eyes.
"W-why?" I asked my sister in confusion.
"Just hide! Don't ask too many questions! Follow what I said"
What is going on? I don't understand what's happening. Why does my sister seem so scared? I am starting to get scared too.
"K-Klara.."
"Hide! We don't have time, Klemea, they are coming". My sister was panicking. She grabbed my hand and pulled me under the bed. And forced me to go under.
Who's coming?! What is my sister saying?
"Klara, what's going on? What's wrong?" I asked as I found my voice. Clueless.
"Just hide there and don't come out until I say so. Is that clear? Promise me"
"B-But-
"Klemea, promise me" she interrupted me. My sister Klara looked serious. So, I was forced to nod.
"...and no matter what happens, don't make any noise." Klara added before I could finally get under the bed, ready to hide. The height of the bed is small enough to fit my young body. The space is just right for the kid.
Even though my mind was still confused as to what was going on. I followed my sister's orders.
Right when I was under the bed, the door of my room opened violently. I saw five pairs of feet enter.
"Who are you?" I heard my sister shout at the newcomers.
"Klaro Rinoa's eldest daughter is really beautiful. Not bad for us to taste," said the man with a laughing voice.
It's scary!
I was scared by that laugh and shaking with so much fear. Who are they? What do they need?
"Don't come near me!" Klara shouted. Her voice was also mixed with fear.
"Hold it in both hands! Hurry up" said the one who looked like their leader. His voice is scary. It was full, hair raising and deep, which didn't seem like it was going to do any good.
"Yes boss!" I heard voices in unison shouting with joy.
After a couple of minutes...
I heard my sister crying. I covered my mouth, also crying silently. In my opinion, they raped Klara right on top of my bed!
"Ahhhh.."
"s**t! I'm satisfied!"
"Stop!!... You're animals!!!" My sister Klara's voice.
" Hahahaha"
"Tigress, isn't she?"
"I like tigresses. Bold and biting"
"Hahaha yeah fucker!"
Their laughter echoed in my room. They don't even care if my sister begs them to stop.
They have no heart! Demons!
"Animals! All of you are demons!" Klara.
I heard laughing and crying inside the room. I covered my ears so I could no longer hear them. I can not take it anymore! My ears are about to bleed because of their devilish laughter! I sobbed softly.
M-my sister.. She sacrificed so that I would not be harmed.. I will not make any noise, my sister's sacrifice will not be wasted.
Right! I will not make noise. I will not go out. I will hide well.
But what about my sister? I can't help her at all. I feel useless. I couldn't even move my body because I felt so scared. What should I do now? I don't even know them based on their voice. Does my family have arrears with them? Why are they doing this?! Should I call the police? But how?
BANG!
I was stunned. A gunshot?
I heard another gunshot. I covered both my ears, trembling. This time it was louder and deafening.
"Hahaha.. You're really stupid. Why did you shoot? We should have just taken her to the hide out so we can have a s*x toy.. hahaha"
"I'm sorry Boss, I just pulled the trigger. I'm so excited"
"Hahaha crazy boy!"
"Don Manuel Aguirre is right, the Rinoas have good genes.I know, they have a youngest daughter? Where is she?"
Who is Don Manuel Aguirre? What does my family owe to that, Don? Was it Don Aguirre who ordered these bad people to kill us?
"f**k you Bro! Don't look for her. She's not here, maybe she's playing outside.. Klaro's youngest daughter is still young, so don't be interested."
"Let's go guys, our plan here is over. The Aguirres' order to us is over"
So that's right! Don Aguirre gave the order to kill us all!
"Wait! Aren't we going to kill their youngest daughter?"
"She's not here. She can't be a witness."
"Let's go!"
"Yeah.."
I heard the men's footsteps fading away. After making sure they were gone. I came out of my hiding place. I was shaking with fear. I don't know what to do. I still feel shocked because of what I experienced.
I slowly turned around. Looking for my sister. I covered my mouth when I saw Klara.. my tears started to fall because of what I saw.
Blood!
A lot of blood.. scattered.
A lot of blood on the bed.. My sister is naked! I don't know where to hold her. It seems that just a little touch of her will destroy her.
"K-klara..?" I called softly. My sister didn't even move..Who else would survive if shot? And it looks like my sister has a gunshot wound to her head. That's why the blood flow is strong.
Animals! They will pay for this! They have no hearts and no souls. They have no mercy. They kill innocent people.
I run down the stairs of the house in case I catch up with the bad guys. I don't care if I die. My older sister! They raped my sister Klara!
The whole living room was quiet when I got there. I think the bad guys have left our house. I heard no more voices. The surroundings are very cluttered. Our furniture is a mess. The silence was deafening.
I walked silently with tears in my eyes.
Slowly..
I stopped suddenly when my parents appeared in front of me. Both were lying on the floor. I swallowed. I felt a lump in my throat. I held my chest because it started to tighten. I feel like I'm running out of air.
"Ma..." I shook my mother as I got closer.
"Pa.." there was no response.
"Mama..Papa..wake up!..Sister..K-klara needs help.Ma! Pa! Help!" my tears fell one after another. I already knew why my parents didn't move. I shook them again. Desperately, but still no response.
"Mama Papa!" I shook them hard. My tears can't stop falling. Still, nothing happened. No response.
I finally stopped shaking them. My parents won't move no matter what I do. I wiped the tears from my eyes. I saw blood on the floor. It came from my parents' bodies.
Like Klara..They are no longer alive.
I know..I already know. I just can't accept that they are all gone. All of them. My family. My mama, papa and klara.
"No!!!"
