Day 19 : The Attack
Chyrill gets awake from the explosion and gunfire that she heard around the camp, she suddenly gets up from the bed and sneak in the window of her room, she feels afraid when she saw the explosion and a series of gun shots given back by the soldiers in the group of terrorist her heart beats faster and it recalls again the night when an explosion happened before, she rattled and cover herself a blanket and put the pillow on her head because of being feel afraid.
She heard the door opening and somebody gets inside and walks towards her, she was totally afraid when she heard the footstep approaching her. She was even more afraid and shouted out loud when she feels the hands holding her arm. She covered her mouth to stop her from shouting. She just calmed down when she saw that Sergeant Herrera was in front of him. She hugged him tightly and just cried.
“It’s me, don’t be afraid..I am here now.
“I’m afraid. She cried to the Sergeant.
“Don’t be. I am here, but I need to get you out here. I will take you to the safe place.”
She just nods to the Sergeant and hold his hand when they goes outside of the room, She wants to stay beside Sergeant Herrera but the things between the Arland Soldiers and the San Serif terrorist is getting worse she wanted to get out the Simpkins together with the Sergeant and spend together with no more war, explosion and gun shots she heard.
When they go out into her room, heading outside of the camp Sergeant Herrera immediately took her to get in the military truck. The Sergeant hugs her tightly and kissed her on the forehead and wipes her tears.
“I want you to be safe, okay? I promise I’ll be back to you.”
No words slip in her lips, she just nods and cried in every word that the Sergeant says to her, she has no idea where she will take the Military truck together with the other soldier, maybe at the North Simpkins Place she hopes so, all that she wants now is to end this war between the Arland Soldiers and The Sans Serif terrorist.
On the way out of the Arland camp a group of Sans Serif terrorist block the military truck on where she is riding the Arland Soldiers quickly fired the Sans Serif terrorist and the soldiers surrounded the military truck to protect her. Several soldiers are wounded and the other Sans Serif terrorists are left lifeless, the soldier drives the military truck away from the place of war.
She witnessed the war between the Sans Serifs terrorists and the Arland soldiers, many questions in her mind that she is seeking for the answer, when this war will be ended between the terrorist and soldiers?
She is too worried about Sergeant Herrera what if something wrong will happen to him. She wants to jump out the truck to go back at the camp to follow Sergeant Herrera, but, then, all that she can do now is to wait for him and trust him. She has no idea where she will take by the soldiers.
They had to travel away from the Arland camp, how far is it to the place they were going? She is no longer to take another more hour sitting; without asking for anyone else, she asked the one of the soldiers sitting in her front he looks in pain from the shots that he gained from the gun fire.
“How long we will travel?” She asked.
“Not too long just wait for another thirty minutes Ma’am.” The soldier answered her, he got a shot on his legs and Chyrill can see in his face the pain that he endures.
She nods and gets nearer to him and she gets the medical kit to apply him the first aid. She backs on her sit and she looks outside, she had no other to see, but the trees and the woodland. She feels sleepy because of the cold smell of air, she then, suddenly close her eyes until she falls asleep.
She awakes when she feels that the military truck suddenly stops at the moment and she has noticed that she was the only one inside left behind, she gets up quickly and she go down in the truck. She gets a surprise when she sees the place it was totally amazing and enchanted.
From afar she sees the other people in this place she walks fast to go with them, the sounds of the noise is too familiar to her, the laughter of the children and she listened to the songs that she taught to them. She will not be wrong of that thing, maybe they are the people of North Simpkins she in a hurry to go to them her tears fall when she sees the familiar people of the North Simpkins. She cried and laughs too when she confirmed that it was them.
“Children, she called them with tears.
The children ran coming into her and she hugs them, they were all smiling as they see her. The people of the North Simpkins are happy to see her here, this is the place they were hiding when there is a war between the terrorist and the soldiers, she wondered how they get in here it was yesterday when she was able to visit them together with Sergeant Herrera.
“I’m glad you are safe”. One of the women of Simpkins knows the English language approaches her.
“I am happy too, to see you all here.” She smiles too to the woman of North Simpkins who been so kind to her.
All day she looks from afar thinking about what is happening to Sergeant Herrera, she thinks always about him, she wanted to know what is happening to him, if he is okay? How long the war will it be?
She took a deep breath and walks along the way of the woody place she hopes that she will see the Sergeant here but she knows it will never be happen. She feels worried and misses him badly she just hoping that the war will be ended soon.
It gets dark, she doesn’t even know for how long she will stay here at the woody place sitting and doing nothing, waiting for the Sergeant that she knows that there’s no Sergeant Herrera come.
One of the soldiers came into her with a blanket and gives it to her.
“Here, Ma’am its getting cold you will be getting sick. The Sergeant, don’t want you to get sick and he asks me a favor to take care of you.
“Thank you, I just wonder about him and I feel so worried”.
“No, you shouldn’t be. He is brave and he will be back to you just like his promise to you. Okay? So, you better take a sleep.
She smiles and gets up from her seat; she follows the soldier back to the place where they are hiding.
She gets inside in her tent to take a rest and hoping that tomorrow Sergeant will come and they will spend the time together.
