Poisoned

I have no talent in writing titles

“Come on, wake up. You have to wake up, please, Cathy. It can’t end like this.” Shaking my bloody torn body as I wheeze my breaths. I move my hand to pat her head to make sure I am alright but she just cries it off. The people around us no longer move so no one could help me but no matter it was their fault that I turned up like this. I could hear more people coming and when they did they separated me and Christina. They injected something into me and I couldn’t even scream as the pain rushed into me. I lost conscience right then and there. When I woke up I was alone in a cell and all my injuries had healed. They opened the door and put a collar on me and just let me go outside and back up into the elevator. When I got out of the elevator I went to my room and Christina was waiting there for me. Crying as usual I looked for a blanket and covered her up as I carried her to the bed. “You’ll catch a cold.” I laughed it off knowing she won’t hear me and I went outside to the living room. It was completely dark out to be 10 so I decided to wander out into the new city me and my cousin Christina had been taken to. The sky was already pitch black and I couldn’t see the stars that had sadden me. As I walked in the busy streets filled with people who talk about their powers, I have grown very sad that they could be so cheerful about it. When people use it so freely I flinch at the sight of it because they had gotten them at ages 5-6 years old. I was just recent so it hurt so much either that or they were illegally drugging me to do this. As I crossed the bridge I looked out onto the streets, it was filled with lights that reminded me of home. I didn’t like standing so I jumped onto the rails and sat down to watch the cars go in and out of the bridge below me. Staring at them made me be lost in thought on how I ended up here but then I remember the time I came home.

It was just three months after I had just returned home from being on an overseas learning experience in Europe. When I came home no one was there to greet me back on my trip. Well I kind of knew it because I went on my own and no one knew that I would be returning. So I took a taxi back home and man that bill was so expensive paid over $200 just because I lived in the north side of town. Anyways when I returned home I was surprised they didn’t change the locks to the house. So when I unlocked the door and opened it an unfamiliar face was in it as well as my brothers. I said.

                “Hey, Joey, I’m back.” The joy on his face when he say me after 2 years was like a dog seeing it’s owners every day when they came back from well anything. He ran down the stairs and hugged me. “Cathy’s back!” I hear him say and all I could do was pat him on the head and then squeeze his cheeks because it’s our usual routine when I was still living there. The woman just glared at me from the top of the stairs. I glared back at her making my smile disappear way too quickly. I swear I saw bolts coming from her eyes and hearing her hiss at me. I got out of my little brother’s arms and up the stairs I went to go to my room. As I passed her she grabbed me at the arm and I looked directly into her ice cold eyes. “Who are you and what are you doing in this household?” I scoffed off as her grip on my arm had started to tighten. I grabbed her wrist and flung it away making her fall to the ground. I could hear my little brother crack a laugh there but he just ran and stood behind me. I stared at her while she was in on the ground with wide eyes that I had just rebelled onto her.

                “Who am I you say I should be asking that question stranger.” There was a silence in the air that no one could break the tension but somehow it was broken when my father came home and we heard the garage door open and he went. “Hello~ is everyone home?” As he climbed up the stairs with his lime green coffee mug in his hand, his phone in the other, and a bag that was slung over the intersection of the elbow was. When he say the women on the ground he dropped everything and went to her side. I laughed on the inside when he didn’t even notice me. I grabbed Joey’s hand and went to my room, the place had looked different somehow or it was either that or I was so used to a tiny apartment in Paris. I closed the door before I could hear another word out of that woman’s voice. Joey bolted to the bed and started bouncing on it.

                “Hey, you’re 10 now quit being a baby.”

                “No I can do whatever I want.”

                “Really?” I raised my eyebrow questioning it because he was like a robot when the lady looked at him. “No.” I hear a whisper from him. That’s when I heard a knock on the door, I rolled my eyes and grabbed the doorknob and opened it. Looking straight to my father’s head not his eyes his head and I wondered ‘Damn, it’s either that I had gotten taller or my dad has been growing shorter by the years.’

                “I came home, Dad.” He kept looking up and down over and over again. That’s when he cried saying that I came home and all I could do was just smile. I walked over to the kitchen and saw my photo on the table where everyone else wasn’t around anymore. That was what made me go sad to the point of regretting for not calling them after the accident. I went to grab my picture and just looked at it. “There’s no need for you anymore.” I seem to say and placed the photo on the coffee table that was beside the TV. I walked back and the woman was telling my dazed out father of what I had done to her. He didn’t seem to care just stayed motionless at my doorway all kneeled down and crying. That’s when my other brother, Pete came back and saw all the ruckus. Later that night, only my brothers were the only ones that were asking me questions on where I went after I went missing from the hospital. I told them all about Paris but I left some things out so they couldn’t be worried about me because the past was the past. Then my older brother said. “Cathy, you need to see Christina she has been regretting the whole thing for 2 years now.”

                “I know, I’ll do it tomorrow.” I was interrupted when a person tapped my shoulder yelling something. I took off my headphones and heard.

                “You want to die, don’t sit here its really dangerous.” I looked up at her, she was very young to be a judgment person. Behind her was another one and two others with matching uniforms well there were two uniform so it was and 50/50 split. I just smiled and turned to the streets one more remembering the place. I stood up and she screamed not to jump. I turned around and landed on the pavement of the bridge. She grabbed me by the collar and started yelling at me. I couldn’t help but laugh on how people actually cared about the people in the city. That’s when I got a call from C.C. so I picked it up and there was more yelling.

                “Cathy, where the f**k are you? You know how much I’ve been worrying. I woke up and you weren’t there. I thought they had taken you again and started testing without having me by your side.”

                “Relax, Milord I was just out sightseeing well just enjoying the fresh air. I’ll be back in 10 minutes to clear up a misunderstanding.” I hung up the phone and I could see the anger in her eyes.

                “Hi, my name is Catherine and as I said to my buddy I was just taking a breather besides the view here is the same one I had at home. Just a little homesick that’s all so if anything I’ll be careful and be on my way home now.” I bowed my head quickly and left in a rush to go back before they have anytime to reply. Running to the apartment as fast as I can without crashing into anybody was harder than I had thought. When I got back to the house I opened the door and I saw Christina in a really bad mess. The place looked like robbers came and ransacked the place. Christina however was standing in the doorway with no glasses on and she crossed her arms with her eye brows crunched together.

                “I didn’t want to wake you since you had trouble sleeping for the whole week.” I raised my hands surrendering to her without a hesitation in my actions.

                “Don’t pull that crap with me. I can sleep perfectly fine anywhere and anytime.” She dropped her arms to the side and turned around to the couch and just dropped herself into place.

                “Yeah tell that to earlier today.” I had whispered but she couldn’t hear me. I walked to my room without saying anything else because if I did then I know Milord would just lash out once again. Laying on my bed my mind and body began to ache once again. Shivering to what was being done to me over and over again for the past 2 weeks. I closed my eyes and that’s when I’m there again. Begging someone to save me just anyone as I hold the one I hold dear dead in my arms. When no one came to my side I ran to the nearest hospital but the 4 hours of waiting was for nothing. Someone had taken her body somewhere but they knew for sure that she could have been alive if I brought her in sooner. I wake up in cold sweat with tears in my eyes and Milord just loomed over my bed watching me. I get up real quickly but that triggered my damaged lungs and I began coughing up blood all over myself. Milord helped me clean up and after that took medication to help ease the pain as well as tighten the wounds in my lungs. I could feel Milords hand rubbing my back so the pill can travel down faster. When I was finished she pulled up a chair and sat down beside me. I lay back down into the bed and waited. The medicine was strong enough to put an elephant down so I was getting sleepy and probably maybe feverish. Milord had noticed and went to grab a damp towel for cool down my fever. I could hear her even if I was getting sleepy.

                “Sorry, Cathy, this wouldn’t have happened if only we didn’t attend the battle. It’s all my fault so don’t cry in your sleep anymore. I can hear you crying and screaming every night. Just please. Cathy, tell me what happened in Paris that made you like this.” With that I went to sleep without answering her yet again. This time I was in a different yet similar dream, I was in the downtown area with a man. We were walking so happily, laughing to his jokes but I felt so empty inside. I pointed to the alleyway and he grinned at my decision. When we entered I gave him a kiss and then his throat was sliced I backed away not even horrified at the scene and looked at my hands. Full of blood yet again the knife was coated in blood too. I could see someone in the alley with us but it wasn’t a stranger just someone who I knew. He smiled as he came out and took the knife. Elle came to my side and cleaned my up, we walked in a building and she gave me a fresh set of clothes. I looked at my hands they were clean and yet I couldn’t see them as clean anymore. Clenching my fists so hard I didn’t notice that I had cut my hands, blood flowed slowly out on my palm. It slowly dropped to the floor and when it did I woke up and so did my alarm clock.

                I had always woken up at 5 to go running either that or do work that was forgotten. Since I had none of those I just made breakfast for the both of us and just watched TV until it was 7. I walked back into my room and shook her awake. She just mumbled and threw a pillow at me, I wasn’t surprised that she still had that old habit of not letting anyone wake her up. So I pushed her off the chair and that clearly got her attention to wake up and then hit me again. We changed into our high school uniforms and ate breakfast once we were done with that we went to the bus stop to go to school.

                I flipped on my phone to check where our school was and determine where to go next after taking the bus. As we began closing up to the school gates I looked up at the sky and it wasn’t the same as the sky I grew to love. Milord tugged my shirt to go inside the gate that and because I was about to walk past it. The school was huge and perhaps old but that didn’t stop Milord from going in. We got lost on the way to the office. We asked quite a few students to show us the way and when we were finished we heard giggling about us. When we got to the office we were about 20 minutes late and the teacher waiting for us was growing irritated. We walked to the teacher and she looked at us and said.

                “Late, both of you guys. This better not happen next time or else you are going to the reflection room and reflect on your actions. Here are your schedules and follow me.” She rose from the chair and walked out of the room. We followed her up the stairs and went to the end of the hallway and were told to stand outside. We could hear her introducing the new transfer students and then she called us in. Milord went in first and I entered after. I heard the boys wowing Milord and me well I couldn’t care about how I wore pants instead of a skirt to school. The teacher didn’t mind it because they knew my health matters and I had a special privilege. Since I had a mechanical leg I didn’t want people to find out so I asked them if I could wear the boy’s school uniform so it would be easier to walk around and not have people fuss about it but clearly I was wrong. I could hear the people whispering about a girl wearing a boy’s uniform. Milord started first she stepped forwards.

                “My name is Christina Nguyen I just recently came here from Canada so I look forward to spending my year with you.” She then looked down and turned around behind me. “My name is Catherine Nguyen and my situation is the same as hers. Please take care of me.” I bowed and then people started asking questions. The teacher gestured us to the least two seats near the window. I took the last row and Milord had no choice but to take the one in front of me. Classes started and to my surprise I had already learnt all of it when I was in Paris except for the powers and how it was made through the discovery of science.

                When classes ended mostly everyone was at Milord’s desk asking her if she wanted to hang out afterschool. She just smiled and nodded her head with the whole thing. I didn’t want to go and I knew I wasn’t going to be invited but knowing Milord she would drag me with her just because she knew I would follow her if she just pushed me hard enough. As I left the classroom, I didn’t hear anything from her so I was somehow relieved that I didn’t have to deal with something as small as this. As I exited off the school grounds I stared at the sky as the giant blimp flew across telling us the events of today along with the weather. I shake my head to get the dizziness out of my sight. I continued to walk to a nearby park to cool off my head. That’s when I saw the same two people out of four at the vending machine. The taller one decided to kick the vending machine to get a soda out of it. After that the machine started blaring sounds and the security machines started to come to the vending machine. The girls were nowhere in sight but I did remember to run out of there because I didn’t want to cause any more trouble then I already have. I ran to the nearest convenience store to grab some drinks and food to make at home. When I walked outside the same girls were in front of me, I just stared at them and just smiled. When I walked past them they just appeared in front of me out of thin air. I questioned myself if I done something wrong but then I shrugged it off. Though I couldn’t get the feeling out of the way so I asked them.

                “Can I help you guys, or is it because I had done something wrong?” There wasn’t even the slightest pause after I had asked that so the short drilled hair one replied.

                “Yes, you have done something wrong. We have received complaints on how you sat on the bridge last night looking as if you were attempting suicide.”

                “Damn, never knew people actually cared about others in this city.”

                “Excuse me, I am with Judgment. It is my duty to preserve the peace in this city.”

                “And this has something to do with me because……..”

                “……..because your recklessness makes people uneasy to be wondering the streets in the night much less be all alone at midnight.”

                “Let me ask you something.”

                “W-what it is?”

                “You guys go to Sakura middle school, right?”

                “Yes, we do. Why?”

                “Just wondering because your guys’ curfew is at 10 and yet you yell at me for being on the streets at 12 and yet you broke your curfew. You really aren’t setting yourself up as a good example.” With that I walked off and I noticed that they were following me or so I thought they went inside a family restaurant and well I went home to cook food to eat. As I finished eating about 10 minutes later my phone rang showing me a text. I trembled as I read the text message, breathing deeply I left a note for Milord and went to the elevator. As I swiped a white card in the elevator it opened and I stepped inside. I didn’t push any buttons to go where I was going. As the door opened people in black suits threw me to the ground and tied me up. The doctors stood in front of me and said. “Subject 245 as usual please entertain us once again.” I was then dragged to the testing room and strapped onto the bed. The other doctors that weren’t on the other side of the glass were right beside me with their surgical tools ready to cut me open.

                “Okay, today is the last day on taking your organs because really we found things really interesting on how you heal real fast in a couple hours. So today we’ll be taking your heart and see if you regain it.” The doctors all agreed on it and took the scalpel and dug it onto my skin. From that moment on I started screaming to the point where they gagged me. The doctors looked in fear when they opened me up to find something horrible inside.

                “Head Doc, this subject she she.” They cowered in fear and went as far away as they could from my body. “What is it?” He replied. He walked into the room and went to my body and just smiled as if it was almost too good. He touched me and whispered. “You’re just like a gold mine now aren’t you” He took out a needle and injected it into my neck where the major artery was. “We have to inject you here because you see you have no heart, well we’ll figure something out now won’t we subject 245.” Everything seem to hurt as much as it did yesterday but this time I had a dream of being a monster that would kill anyone. I was screaming as every doctor in this place was floating around in a pool of blood as I cradled Milord in my arms because she was injured by their hands.

                I woke up in my room and the time was 9:26 p.m. I walked out to the living room and Milord was there eating and watching TV. I walked past her and grabbed some water then that’s when it happened, it seemed like I ripped the bottle into at least six sections.  It dropped to the ground making a huge mess on the hard wood. Christina stood up and I just looked at my hand as it pulsed back to my “normal” fingers.

                “Cathy, are you okay?” By instinct I hid my hands behind my back and say that nothing was wrong. I walked to my room and stared at my hands as they changed to knife like things. Shivering as I can see the non-existent blood dripping off my hands. I tell my mind that I’m okay but I know this isn’t okay at all and my heart knows it. Rushing to my bed to stop it all I cut myself and flinch into the pain. Watching my own blood flow wasn’t okay at all so I bandaged it up and went back to sleep.

                I woke up and took my bed sheets and made sure Christina couldn’t find them or ever know I had hurt myself with this thing they had injected me with.

                School was the same thing as always so boring and nothing to do. The only thing different is when Christina turned down everyone to go anywhere afterschool and just followed me home. Silently eating my phone buzzed at the designated appointment to meet with them. We both stood up and walked to the elevator. When the door opened only I was chained and locked to the ground. Christina didn’t even struggle as she watched at the sidelines. They had these guns with yellow fluids in them. They all pointed at my neck and clicked. All I heard was the button being pushed and I widened my eyes and screamed, moving my body very little because I was again restricted by the chains. The doctors film this as entertainment or their progress on how this was a success or fail. For all I knew I couldn’t even think of doing anything but to get away from this pain that ached throughout my whole body. Somehow I knew something was coming and it wanted to see the outside world. So as I screamed once more the whole building cracked making the lights flicker and have some casualties that run within the city. Having my hands around my arms made no difference when I calmed down to stare at them. They were the same knives that came out when I grabbed the water bottle but this time it extended to my arms and legs. I could hear the scientists cheer for joy. I stood my but my legs were shaking in fear and was weak from the extensions of the knives as if I grew spilt a bone and it flung out of place. Trying one step at a time I struggled to keep my balance without tumbling. I could feel each movement I make aching for me to stop trying, it was enough to bring tears into my eyes clouding my visions. I couldn’t wipe them away fearing that I might tear out my eyes. As I reached the glass where they all looked at my, Christina being held down by the guards. They were hurting her that was all I could think of nothing more on how my whole body ached in pain. I touched the glass and it broke into a spider web. Not enough I had thought, so I flung my fist right into it and down went the bulletproof glass or whatever it was that could withstand the failed experiments. Jumping inside I could hear all the yelling and I couldn’t help but smile as the guards came pouring in with their guns.

                I was standing at the door watching myself kill them all. Twirling as the bullets come from a rapid fire. Christina yelling at me for something, I watched myself rip the guards and scientists into shreds that the whole place was in a pool of blood like a flood. They kept sending in more and more but the more they died the more they backed away. The lights began to turn red and the emergency announcements went on. They were saying how the experiment has lost control and is on the loose. My body just walked over to the control panels and touched it for only a second until everything blasted away. I knew myself better than anyone else so I knew for sure that I would be crying endlessly for at least a week or two mourning for those I had just killed. Innocent so pure Ellie used to say to me as I cried on the stale beds after we finished our missions and had discarded the bullet shells that were all over the scene. When no one else came to my side I just fell down to my knees and screamed in pain, screamed for those who lost their loved one, screamed on how I had killed again, screamed on how there was nothing but violence in this act, screamed in how I couldn’t even do anything anymore. Screaming had turned to crying and then there was a warm feeling on my back. The arms are around me, I look at them and question who was comforting me. Flinching away and running to the other side of the room reminding myself I am dirty, tainted, and no longer sane enough to be saved after digging this pit all the way to the depth of hell. I look at Christina holding myself.

                “Don’t touch me Milord, for I am a monster. I dirty dirty monster, a murderer, everything to the point that I am no longer human.” I just watch her run up to me and hugged me shivering in either fear or sadness. “You aren’t dirty, Cathy, someone else is in you. That person is the monster, you just can’t help but think it is you.”

                “Someone else is the monster. Who?”

                “I don’t know, Cathy, but it isn’t you. So silly you are Cathy.” I was petted on the head like she always does when I do something or say something weird to her.

                “I didn’t do anything weird this time though.”

                “Ah, it changed back!” I questioned on how she looked at my eyes for a long time.

                “Look at those brown eyes I’ve had always seen.” She just smiled away all of the trembling.

                “Chris, What are you talking about my eyes have always been brown nothing has changed.” I questioned everything that had happened, even when we went up to our apartment and changed our bloody clothing then threw it into the trash. Staying shut in my room remember all the details on what I did and I kept replying them over and over again. Every now and then I could hear Chris scream in agony, I wish it could stop just this once.

                It was already dark and I could hear Milord sleep soundly but have puffy eyes from all the crying. I hoped that the neighbors didn’t complain about us for the noise. I grabbed my coat and walked out the door but I left a note saying I went on an adventure and promised that I would be back. I walked around the 7^th and 8^th district of the city until I came across a larger bridge that looked like the once my family would cross to get into the downtown area. When I got to the middle I was simply disappointed when the bridge didn’t have lights let alone have the cold breeze pushy past me. I looked at the sky filled with stars and back down to the still unknown city that lays before me. Resting my head on the railings make everything go silent. I could only hear the windmills turning and the soft footsteps that disappear as time went on. I tried to have no thoughts on my mind but it goes back to Paris and what I had done there. So many people begging for their lives and yet I was forced to kill them, how many times have I cried, how many times will it continue, how much more will I be able to take it until I’m broken. That was when in the back of my mind I could hear his words ‘you belong to me now. Offer up your life and I’ll make sure I will use it well.’ Shaking my head out of his possession I glared at the dark water in which I couldn’t even see the river flowing properly. She came back, the one with the curly hair and kept pestering me. I turned around to face her but I still had a hand on the railing.

                “I did nothing wrong and yet you keep finding me.” She just walked up to me until we were about 2 metres apart. I didn’t notice that I was still crying and it seemed that it would likely cause a misunderstanding. Wiping them away I could see the other person in the same uniform running up to her.

                “Hey, Stacy, you suddenly ran off like that. What was so important that you…..” She stopped and looked at me. “Hey, you better not commit suicide it’s not good for the environment.” I let my hand drop off the railing and hit my side I didn’t want to talk anymore so I walk right past them.

                “Running away from your problems would only make it worse you know.” The girl Stacy had said. “That depends on what you’re talking about because this problem is too big for me to handle anymore. All I had done was make it worse so I got an out and I took it and look at where it has gotten me. If only you guys could understand what I’m going through then you would also run away but that’s not happening now is it. I have other things to do then stay and chat. By the way your curfew is in 5 minutes you better hurry up or else you’ll be facing some harsh consequences but this isn’t the first time now isn’t it?” I smiled at them and walked to a construction site beside a family restaurant. Setting my foot only to the sand and walking the dust jump up and run away in the west direction. I checked my phone for any messages but nothing seem to come up. I sighed in relief that I wasn’t going to be lectured by Chris again for staying out once again. That was when I was in a fancy bedroom that look oddly symmetrical if you take away the stuff animals on the left side of the room. I felt a hand on my shoulder and looked to the right. “It seems that I have been caught for an unknown reason by a chick named Stacy.” Those words came right out of my mouth before I could think about it. I covered my mouth and tried to get out of the room. Though the other girl was smiling as electricity came out of her head. Raising both my hands as I give up on leaving, though I don’t know why I was brought here and I don’t know that Chris would be understanding into believing that I was kidnapped into another person’s room. “I am not going to live this one down now aren’t I, Chris?”  I just got glares well I was looked down upon literally since I was sitting on the floor as they sat on the bed. I raised my hand and they flinched with caution.

                “Um can I ask why I am here?” Stacy answered. “I found you in the system but you didn’t do the system scan yet. Why is it that we got the exam yesterday and yet you and another person didn’t do it?” I looked at the window before I answered. “I might have asked her to skip it with me because it’s too much of a hassle to do things that I don’t want to do.” That’s when I had a deep thumping sound all over my body. I suddenly had short breaths and I tried to contain myself. I looked at them and their confused faces and just like that I was already outside the huge building that said ‘Sakura Middle School Dorms’ I thought to myself I just tr4esspassed into a place that has high security and then I flinched in pain as it rose higher and higher. I could feel my blood filling my lungs and I struggled to get home. When I went to a well-lit park I coughed up a bunch of blood. It was enough for me to feel nausea and I stumbled every time I walked. I sat down in a nearby bench and just breathed as I could hear people talking about me. My vision was swimming until the same person was in my view and just put me in a different bedroom and just let me lie on the floor. It did hurt when I hit the floor, I groaned in pain and started reaching for my phone. I turned it on and it said nothing but the clock did say 22:22. I let go of it and I didn’t hear the thump. I stared at the ceiling for a minute or two and got up. There were two people looking at me and I looked at myself. There was blood on my clothes and then it triggered the memory that was just recent today. I looked at my hands and it reminded me how I can never wash it off. I grabbed the handkerchief and tried wiping my hand off but it just kept appearing again. I did this over and over again until I was forced to stop by Stacy who handcuffed me to the bed and threw the bloody thing away. She put her hand at her waist and started yelling at me. I didn’t even have the strength to listen to her so I just closed my eyes and I had the dream again. He offers his hand to me and I accept it. Seeing his smile sent chills down my spine and then there I am in the warehouse protecting Ellie until he hold a gun to my head. The whole thing goes black and I hear him say “Until next time Chaos.” I wake up in a room that had windows everywhere and it was already morning. I looked to my side and no one was there. The clock showed that it was 7:38 I get up and start looking for my phone. I found it on the cupboard and say that I had 5 missed calls from Chris. I tried calling back but it went directly to voicemail, that’s when I knew she was mad at me and I knew I wouldn’t be hearing the end of it. That’s when the door opened and the same people were walking to the bedside asking all these questions. I couldn’t hear them probably but I think they asked if I was okay or something like that. Some of my hearing was ringing back but just not enough. I wrote on one of their arms to write down what they are saying because it’s not like I could read lips of anything. I saw how freaked out Stacy was about writing on her arm in permanent marker but that was the only thing there that was useful to my and besides they only gave me the permanent marker to play with it as they do check ups. They wrote all kinds of stuff and the asked if it was okay if they heard what the doctor has to say with what is wrong with my body. I stiffen my whole body after reading it. I shake my head in rejection and asked them to not hear it. I didn’t want anyone to hear what was wrong and this has been going on for less than 10 years. After the doctor came in and the other two exited the room, he told me the same things as the last time I had a check-up it was the same thing as always. It was just this time it was different he said or wrote down that I had chemicals that were unusually high and toxic in my system and yet my body depends on them now that it has adjusted to the frequent dosages of the poison. I looked at my hands and then at the doctor I wrote down that I would like to be discharged now and I would cover the bills today if it wasn’t too much trouble. He shook his head and let the nurse handle everything.

                Doing the discharge took longer than I had thought, I had seemed that the girls had put me into a very famous hospital that was loaded with patients for the clinic and check-ups. So when I arrived at school it was already noon. I entered the classroom and I could feel everyone’s eyes on me and when I glanced at Chris she just started talking to the people who were talking to her. I sat down behind her and just put in my earphones and just lose myself into thoughts. There were so many of them that it hurt just to sit and idle by as the day continues on. When lunch ended I stood as the teacher came into the room and walked out the door, I heard the teacher yelling at me for leaving class but I couldn’t care. All the students started whispering something about me and I just slammed the door behind me. I walked up to the roof of the school and just lay down and watched the clouds. I closed my eyes and hummed to myself before I could get comfortable someone was walking towards me. 

"Hey, you shouldn't be skipping classes." I opened my eyes and to my surprise I knew her. "Ageha, it's not nice to walk up to people when they are sleeping." I heard a giggle from her. I looked up and she was right there standing on top of me and the wind blew. It was a nice breeze until I started talking to her. "You know, Ageha, I can see under your skirt. It's not very pleasant for me to say this but I really hate lying to people."

She just smiled back at me and sat down to where my head is. "It's not really fair for you to leave Paris without saying proper good-byes not is it, Cathy." I closed my eyes and replied to her.

"I have no reason to say good-bye to you not after what happened between you and Maria."
