Bitna
My hands shook immediately
Oh my God! Why wasn’t he breathing? Why wasn’t he breathing? I didn’t hit him too hard, did I?
Pure conniption gripped me as my eyes itched. Oh my! I needed to do something. I needed to save him.
No; I needed to save myself. Yes, myself.
My eyes shun brightly as I stared at his unconscious body on the floor. And without further hesitation, I turned around and left the office.
The nurses on desk didn’t seem to pay attention to me – thankfully. And I just skidaddled away, got to the road and boarded a cab home.
My heart was beating out of my chest as I walked the rest of the distance home.
No. He couldn’t be dead, could he? Of course, not. There’s noway I could’ve killed him. I’m not a murderer. Never!
I tried to control my anxiety as I walked into the surprise and due to how dazed I felt, I didn’t realize the guy drinking in the room.
My head was just bent towards the floor as I tried heading for the stairs, but not untill the guy called my attention.
“Hey, Miss pompous!” He chuckled as he stood up from where he was seated and taking a look at him,I realized it was the same guy I had encountered on the streets – the one who won a fight.
Huh? What’s he doing here? Don’t tell me we’re related, please. No way.
“Wow! Isn’t this a surprise?” He chuckled. “What’re you doing here?”
“I think I should be asking you that” I scoffed in return.
“Oh! Let me guess…. you’re Kim’s daughter?” He teased, but I didn’t say a word.
“Oh! Of course, you’re Kim’s daughter!” He chuckled again and started moving closer, but I took some steps away.
I couldn’t tell why, but I just felt kind of scared – scared of what had previously happened.
“Who’s Kim to you? And what’re you doing here?” I rushed my words, trying to know if we’re related.
“Oh! Kim is just my mum’s friend. And she’s acccomodating us for the time being” he answered and I breathed in relief.
Then, I turned around and took the stairs.
“Hey; hold on, Mrs Pompous. We aren’t done talking” he said from behind but I didn’t even stop to spare him a glance.
Getting to my room, I realized my hands were shaking again and.. oh geez! It was making me so nervous.
The doctor… There’s no way he could be dead, right?
God, Please! He can’t be dead. God, please!

I arrived home with Mr Williams and his wife was already waiting at the facade of the house.
As soon as I stepped out of the car, she rushed towards me and pulled me in a hug.
“Oh! Dear, I was getting so worried. Are you alright?” She asked immediately.
“I’m… I’m fine ma’am. Good evening”. I tried brightening up my mood a bit, but hell, it wasn’t working.
“Your father told me you weren’t with the prince when he had gone to pick you up. Was there a problem?” She asked and for a moment, I was a little confused.
Should I tell her the truth? Tell her what I passed through?
No; I don’t think that’s a good idea. I didn’t want more trouble and didn’t even want to think about it again.
I sniffed and shook my head.
“It was nothing serious ma’am. Please, don’t worry about it” I said sullenly and just like Mr Williams, she also looked uncomfortable.
“Okay, dear. If you say so. Um… darling, how’s Bitna? Have you heard from her?” She turned to her husband and asked, but he shook his head negatively which made her a little sad.
She sighed and looked at me.
“Come on, dear. Let’s go in” she rubbed my arm and led me into the house.
Okay; and now I think I’m feeling really nervous. The house was looking too big to me.
Too big and beautiful.
She held my hand as we walked in and somehow, I felt relieved by it.
I continued looking around as she took me to my room…

“If there’s anything you need, dear. Please, don’t hesitate to let me know” Mum said as I sat on the big comfy bed.
I couldn’t even respond to her as I just continued rotating my eyes around.
The room was super big and beautiful and for a moment, it made me forget all about my worries.
“You should take a shower while I get the dining ready, okay?” She further said with her hand on my shoulder and I just managed a nod.
Then, she touched my hair as well and finally left.
Oh God
I placed my cold hands on my cheeks and sighed. Everything was happening so fast – just like a dream and I could hardly believe it.
In just a few days, my life had taken an entirely different turn – including good and bad. I didn’t even know which was worst.
Just in a few days, I had gotten to realize the family I had grown up with, wasn’t my biological family after all. And also, in a few days, I had gotten to know I was a God-forsaken disciple who was meant to be killed or something.
Goodness! I could hardly believe it. Didn’t even want to think about it
I actually wish there was a way I could go far from here – on a very long break. Seriously, I needed it.
I buried my face in my palms and sighed. I needed to calm myself. Yes, it was all going to be over. Definitely. I could do this.

Bitna
I took a shower as soon as I got into the room. Although, there had been no stain on me, but I just felt so dirty and filthy and needed water to touch my entire skin.
The image of the bl.eeding doctor kept replaying in my head and geez! It was making me so scared.
“He isn’t dead. He isn’t dead” I kept consoling myself.
I didn’t want to believe he was really dead. I wasn’t a murderer – never!
I dried my body with a towel and came out of the bathroom after the bath and getting to the room, I took some clothes from the wardrobe.
Well, yeah. Dad had come along with some clothes.
Just when I was completely dressed, the door opened and I turned to see it was Kim.
What?
“Don’t you knock before going into people’s room?” I snapped at her, but she gave no reaction.
She was holding a plate of.. whatever and drooped it on the bed.
“Hi” she sighed.
“How’re you doing?”
“Well, I can never be better in this hellhound. So, don’t ask me that” I rolled my eyes and went to take a brush from the table so I could brush my hair .
She was silent for a long while and I spared her a glance to see if she was still there.
“Well, I made you some stew. Thought you might like it” she said and I looked at the stew and scoffed.
“Are you kidding me? This actually looks like rotten crap to me. I’m not interested, okay?” I answered belligerently and turned back to the mirror.
But thinking of it, I was actually hungry.
Well, h’ll no. There’s no way I’m eating that.
Another seconds of silence stepped in again.
“No problem, then. I’ll check up on you later” she said and left the room, without the stew
“Take it along with you!” I was almost forced to yell after her, but restricted myself.
Whatever. I shouldn’t even care. It can stay there forever.
I finished with my hair and decided to go get some air in front of the window and tht was the moment I knew my life was doomed.
I gasped and moved away from the window immediately.
Oh my God!
The police!!
