They punched my stomach, and they continue to hit me by the thick, and large wooden planks. If they got tired, they will poke me using a large pipe. However, the blindfold remains in its position, they slapped me multiple times, and all I can do is scream and keep saying some profanities. I know, it won't help me, but I can't feel my body because of their smacks and slaps. I tried to remove these chains from my hands, and feet, but nothing changed at all. I can smell the blood coming from my nose, and I can taste the blood, and sweat that's coming from my lips. My parents! They are in danger, I need to help them! “Check her if she's alive, and throw her at the river, let her float until the people will see her. Hurry up!” I can't feel my body, it's like my body was just bleeding, but I can't feel it. All I know was it's dark, and I can't move because of these chains. After a few minutes, there's something that was covering my nose. I think it's plastic, they put me inside the plastic bag. I don't have the strength to fight, if I choose to move, they can drop me at any time, and anywhere, I won't let that thing happen. “She's heavy, I didn't expect this, I like her body, but our boss chose to do some maltreatment to her.” “She looks awful, her body was full of bruises, and wounds, I think she's a good person,” the other man said. I decided to listen to their conversation, and stay calm until they set me free from these terrible events. “What do you think? Is she's alive or not?” I smile bitterly. I felt like the other man punched him jokingly. “Can't you feel her heartbeat? Look, she's still breathing, and it was one of a sign that she's still alive, so you should go in a hurry, to let the people see her!” someone shouted. I can't recognize their voice clearly and based on their bodybuilding, this person who was carrying me is the one who had a good body built. His companion is the one who shouted if I'm not mistaken. They still talking about me, they didn't mind if I heard them or not. “You know what, I feel pity for her, I heard that her parents are included in the arson case that was happened earlier in the other city,” the person who was carrying me said in a low tone. My tears start streaming down my face. Maybe it's my punishment, I won't consider this as my consequence, instead, I considered this as my punishment or my payment from my debts. I bullied some innocent students, even if I don't have some reason to be a bad, and irresponsible student. After a while, they throw me to the river and removed my blindfold. I opened my eyes but they are wearing some mask that was covering their whole face. My tears started to fall when I recognized the eyes of the man who was talking earlier. Why? Why did he do that to me? I thought he's a good man. I always looked up to him, and he never knew that I've been inspired by him, but all the beautiful images of him became dark and horrible images. He's now a bad man to me. My heart can't accept the fact that Zhian Azrael's father was one of the people who did some maltreatment to me. I can't forget his gray eyes just like Zhian Azrael's eyes. However, they are different, Zhian's eyes were wonderful, and it can give some hope, and always reminds that there's still tomorrow, and life must go on. His father's eyes were full of sorrow, and repentance, though I hate him, I understand that it's his job to obey the commands coming from his boss. I just can't understand, why him? There's a lot of people who can do such things, but the world chose him to hurt me. I don't know what's happening, and what's going on, but all I can feel is the cold water coming from the river. It's like the water is carrying me. Mom, Dad, help me, I'm drowning, I can't move my body, I feel like my bones were crushed. My eyes were opened, but I can't see anything. What's that? I think it's just my hallucinations. I'm seeing someone's hand that looks like it's reaching me. I don't know if my tears are still flowing or it's just the water coming from the river. I closed my eyes. I think I need to rest. I don't have many reasons to live, my parents were already dead, and I don't have any siblings. I'm all alone now. “Look! There's someone who was floating at the river! Help me! I think that person is still alive!” that voice is familiar. It's a voice from a girl that was very related to my heart. “Oh my! SAMMY! Help! She's my best friend!” someone immediately pulled me out from the water, “She's alive!” Zoe's voice is trembling, and she began to shake me. My eyes slowly started to open, and her face was the first that I recognized. Her eyes were filled with tears, and her body is shaking. “You're awake! I thought I will lose you because of your appearance! Who did this to you!” Right, I'm wrong, I have some reason to keep going, there's still Zoe Amethyst, my childhood best friend. I'm so selfish earlier, my mind didn't remind me that I still have her. She hugs me immediately, and I began to cough, so the water will come out. I observed the whole place. There's a lot of people who surrounded us, and the facial expressions were different from each other. Others were happy, while others are not. In my opinion, they might think that I'm just gaining sympathy from the people, and I'm using my condition to gain popularity. I don't know if I'm just paranoid, or what. However, some of them are sincere, and they want to help me. I'm seeing the person who promised me that he will arrive at our meeting place. I glared at him that makes him feel conscious, and he's having a bewildered look on his face. “My parents...” I whispered. My words make Zoe stop for a moment. She looked at me with a sympathized face. “We're sorry, we couldn't make it, we're late, I'm sorry...” She hugged me once again, but this time her hug is tight saying that everything will be alright, and she's sincere in apologizing. “I want to see our house.”
