章節 14: Chapter 14
Chapter 14
"What are you doing in here?" the supervisor asked with an angry tone
"Oh," I paused and stared at him, I can't exactly tell the truth "nothing. On my way downstairs, I heard a sound in here, so I checked it out; that all."
"If that be the case, you should have just reported it, instead of coming in here. This is the HOS office and things like you are not welcome in here."
Things? This bastard, "Oh, is that so? I did not know. Sorry." I hurried towards the door, but they paused me
As he stared down at me, as he said, "for your sake, I hope that was what it was. Now get out."
"Of course sir," as I hurried out of the office, I bump into the HOS
"Watch it, young lady." He said with a mild expression.
"Yes, my bad sir," I ran away from him and strength towards my room. I didn't even bother to look back or listen to him as he yelled after me.
I signed as I took water from my fridge to drink, "there goes my only chance of survival," I said in a fit as I hit the table with a loud bang, then something fall from underneath my clothes.
"Oh, the letter." I almost forgot about it.
I went into my bed, as I read it, honestly, I don't know why but the signature does look familiar, wait… I inspected it was signed 'VBS' I know this signature, it was just like father's only that his was 'JBS' John Black, then I took an even closer look at the other one again, 'VBS' Vivian Black.
"It was mother signature" I was happy, that was probably the first time I felt gladness in my heart after seeing my mother's name or even calling it "she sent a message, of course, she would, even if she didn't mean to; father would have forced her." I started looking forward to reading it, and at that moment I was ready to accept whatever insult or abuse she has written as long as I found comfort in it.
Just as I was glad, I pondered why it was never given to me, sure I always get bullied and maltreated, but they heed none of the letters sent to me, and this one was pretty old. This just made me more curious, and I opened it.
As soon as I did, with the first words I saw, I knew I wasn't meant to see this, and as I read further, my heart sank deeper than it first did.
All the pain I had heard at bay came rushing down on me with a mighty force. I broke down in tears. I don't know how long I cried for, but I knew the tears never stopped, in the bathroom, I would, when I ate I would cry, I couldn't focus on my studies, so I locked myself in my room for weeks and I cried as I sank deeper in despair, even when the teachers came banging on my door, I ignore and just wish for death to come sooner, but it never came.
But by the time the tears stopped flowing, I had lost the bit of emotion I had left, simply put I was dead inside.
Void of feelings, I now understood why I had to go through those sufferings, why I was maltreated. I looked at my disfigured body in the mirror with a death-like expression, eyes devoid of life.
And I spoke to the weak girl looking from the other side of the mirror, "no more, crying over the spilled mike, no more letting yourself be taken for granted, no more being the fool. I will live, I will grow strong and by the time I am done with this camp and its inhabitants. They will tremble at the thought of my name." I took my kitchen knife, cut my hair down. They set the motion. No more playing victim.
I freshen up, put on a black t-shirt with black pants and boots, I head to class.
The letter Mrs Vivian Black had sent over to the HOS.
Greeting to the HOS of the doctoring training camp,
This is an anonymous letter addressed to you and you only.
I am Willy to pay you whatever amount you need, even if it means sponsoring your training camp.
I want the girl 'Rose Black' registered as a student to never come back from that training.
I don't need to explain what I meant, since am sure you will understand,
Do whatever you have to do; even if it means getting help from others, I am fine.
As long as she never returns to NY, even if it means you have to cripple her completely.
Don't worry about the father. I will take care of him.
Send me your account details and documents for the sponsorships. I will see to it, too.
And this will be the last letter I will send you.
Please don't disappoint me this time.
Signed: VBS
