7 Trauma

While running, I turned my head to the side to look to the front door to signal my dad who would probably be giving an interview. But Dad wasn't there. The door was open.

Police? Why were the cops at our house? What was going on? I was so confused.

I heard some people calling out my name and trying to chase me. But I kept running. I just had to go to my parents. I had enough for today.

I dashed into the kitchen which opened through the back door and towards my parents room.

"Mom, Dad!? Where are you?" I called.

They weren't in the room.

I searched for them in the entire floor then I saw the cops and other people moving towards the first floor.

I followed them. They were definitely going to meet my parents.

They were going towards the Meeting room, where dad and mum would hold meetings and I wasn't allowed.

I would ask sometimes what did they discuss about. They only replied that its only work stuff, company matters.

Were they having a meeting with the cops?

I got in to meet the biggest trauma in my life.

I felt the ground slipping under my feet.

I stood there still while I lost my senses.

I felt like I couldn't breathe.

"MUM, DAD!!!!" I cried

They were lying on the ground. Unconscious.

People around me tried to stop me but I had to see.

I couldn't belive what I saw.

Why didn't they understand. I had to wake my mom and dad. Why weren't they taking them to a hospital.

Its then when I saw blood. Lots of blood.

Flowing under my mothers and father's body.

I howled. This couldn't be true.

My parents left me. They were gone.

They died.

I fell unconscious.

I heard Nancy screaming. I felt picking me up. But I couldn't move.

I wanted to go with my parents. I wanted to stay with them.

Why did they leave me alone?

I closed my eyes believing they'll never open up again.

Wishing that even if they do, it all turns out to be a bad dream.

A nightmare I never want to experience again.

I woke up to find my self in an unfamiliar surrounding.

It was the hospital bed.

"Master, are you alright?" I heard Nancy's voice in a worried tone.

I looked to the side to face her.

I felt like I couldn't speak but I gathered all my strength to ask something I didn't gave the guts to.

I just didn't want to hear it but I had to know for sure.

"Nancy, Mom and Dad?" Its all I could speak.

She shook her head and started sobbing again.

She was in pain too. She was living with us even before I was born. She never gave us a chance to complain. She was our family member.

"How?" I gained the courage to ask with so much pain in my heart that I couldn't describe.

"Some men came to meet them today  at 12pm, master.

Master John seemed to know them. He toom them to the meeting room and Madam asked me to prepare tea for 5 and then asked me to go and buy some things from the mart.

When I returned I saw them like.....

that.... And... the men had left...

I didn't see them, master she said and started crying with even more intensity.

I knew who they were. But I had to be sure. I had to find out who did this.
