WHISPERS OF THE NIGHT

CHAPTER FIVE :YOU ALL LEFT.....

With those words, I felt alive. We went back home.

"You said that I got all the information about you correct and told a little lie, right? "

" Right "

" Now please can you tell me everything about you. I don't even know your name "

" Well, My name is Easton Robinson, I'm an orphan or will I say, I'm currently an orphan. I'm 13 years old. Those guys you saw on that night were the men that killed my parents and when the saw me, they decided to end me too"

"What? But the man said that you were his nephew? "

" I have no uncle, my dad had only one sibling which is my aunty. And I also have one sibling, my little brother "

" What? But where is he? "

" I had sent him out of the house and had told him to run away that I'll come get him. I did that about 45 minutes before those bad guys saw me"

"So do you have any idea where your brother might be? "

" No, I don't and I can't because finding him would mean endangering him because those bad guys are looking for me badly because they don't know that my younger brother is still alive"

"But at the same time leaving him in this wide world full of bad people to fend for himself is not a good idea either "

"Yeah, but what can I do?"

"Anyways let's leave the talk about my life. Tell me about yourself "

" Okay. Hello, I'm Lucia Blackwood. I'm 10 years old. I have a loving and caring parents. Though they aren't rich "I introduced.

" Here "he said giving me a picture of a cute boy with blue eyes.

" Who is this? He's so handsome and cute "I ask starring at the pictures

" That's my brother "

" Wow, I would have loved to meet with him. Anyways I need to head back home. My mom must be worried"

"Ok "

I had left him in the playhouse and had gone home since I had left my mum alone at home and I knew that she will be worried about me.

But the whole feeling of joy faded from my heart the moment I reached the door step of my house. The door was opened which was unlike my mum, did something happen to her after I had left?

Stepping inside the house, I saw blood trails leading to the room where I left her earlier. The house was filled with broken bottles and plates and things. I couldn't see her knitting items and her new knitted sweater. I know that she normally does videos of her hand work and saves it on a flash drive. The house was dead silent, as I moved towards the room, my whole body was shivering out of fear. I swung the room door open and met with the most horrible and dreadful, unexpected sight. The sight of my mum hanging on the ceiling fan and blood dripping from her body. I couldn't talk, I couldn't scream, I couldn't cry. I just went outside and called our closest neighbor who was a family friend. As I called her, I went into the room and touched my mother's body but I could not feel anything, my brain had gone numb.

"Holy f***k, who did this? "Mrs. Olivia screamed.

" I don't know "I said my eyes fixed on my mum's body, my eyes devoid of emotions as I carress her corpse.

" Is there any one out there? Help us!! " Mrs Olivia screamed.

" Lucia, don't cry everything will be alright, okay? "She turned to me and said

"Aunty, I'm not crying" I said coldly.

"What? but why? " she asked looking shocked.

"I don't know, I just don't have any feelings to display at this moment." I say still searching deep within me to find any feelings. The neighborhood began trooping into the house and each of them expressing their shock and trying to comfort me.

"It's the shock. Her brain is unable to carry the sudden shocking news. " Mrs Abigail said with a pitiful voice.

"Some body call the doctor, another person call the cemetery and another person call Mr. Blackwood" Mr Brownson shouted.

"Hello, is this doctor Sanjay? We need your help" Mr Braj conversed on a phone call with the doctor.

"Hello, Mr. Blackwood your attention is needed at your house now. It's an emergency" Mr Williams said to my dad over the phone trying as much as possible to sound calm.

"Hello, is this Santa Maria Cemetery? "Mr Sean.

Everyone was so busy and the police were already here. The next minute, Mr Bryan got a phone call saying that my dad got into a bus accident. The world was becoming too noisy and unbearable. So I decided to step out not knowing where to go to, I just let my leg and heart carry me. Well they brought me to the play house, I stepped inside and sat down on the chair at the corner of the room. I was reminiscing on what just happened when I felt Easton hug me.

"I heard what happened. I'm so sorry "

"Its not your fault"

"Everything is going to be alright "

"No I don't think so"

"Why? "

" My dad was just confirmed dead from a bus accident "

" What? I'm so sorry"

"I just don't know why I can't feel anything "

" It's the shock, just calm down "

" I lost them in one night "

"It's okay" Easton said cuddling me. Just as he was sympathizing with me, the door swang open and we met another shock which was going to destroy us.

"Hello, Little girl, you're smart aren't you?" one of the bad guys said.

"What do you want? "I ask coldly

"Hand us the boy and we won't handle you the way we handled your parents " the other guy said.

"Lights out scumbags " I said and switched off the lights. One thing you should know about my house is that without the lights, you are definitely going to end up in pains. So I grabbed Easton's hand and ran out into the dark.

When we got to the stream, I hid him in a bush.

" As soon as I leave, run very far from here "I sternly tell him.

" But what about you? " he asks with concern.

" I'm going to the neighbors and those guys won't be able to touch me when the neighbors are there "I tell him.

" I'll come back for you so promise you will wait for me? " he asks reaching out his hand.

" I will "I say and like lightening his lips on mine we shared a brief kiss and he left. That was when I started feeling emotions. Tears welled up in my eyes, everyone, everyone I loved left me in one night what will be my fate?

" There she is. Hey where is he? "the guy who I presume to be their leader yelled.

And when I refused to answer, I got hit so hard that I stumbled when normally I would fall. My cold demeanor was back.
