Chapter 5: 05
After finishing my meal, I went straight to my room. I just locked myself inside and didn’t came out the
whole afternoon. I just pretended to be tired and wanted to rest so they wouldn''t bother me anymore.
Lying on my bed, I stared nkly at my ceiling. I don''t know why I''m in this ce again. Even though I
don''t want to go home, there is a force pulling my leg to go home.
I have sworn of noting back to this ce even though I was born and raised here. I feel like I’m not
safe in this ce, but seeing myself in this same ce again overwhelmed my insides.
The next morning, I pushed myself to have a walk. I walked around our subdivision for almost an hour
and when the sun got irritating on my skin, I decided to go back home.

It''s Thursday and I don''t have any ns of going out. If I hadn’t just gotten used to running every
morning I wouldn’t havee out. As much as possible I don’t want anyone to know I’m home. I would
be especially irritated if someone were to tease me, more than the irritation I get from my younger
brother.
"Don''t you have any ns to go out? I''m being examined by the way you look like you''ve been lying
here on the sofa all day and your cellphone is full," I said to my brother.
"I have nothing to do outside," he replied. "And then if you don''t want to see me, you''re in your room.
I''m quiet here." it''s still howling.
I just ignored it and went straight to the kitchen. I caught up with Mom there.
"Aren''t you nning to take a walk outside?" Question it immediately.
I shook. "I''m toozy to go out."
"What a waste of your vacation if you don''t go out. Can you visit your friends?" Mama suggested.
"They''re busy, Ma."
"Edi on the week. How long will you leave?"
"Two weeks please."
"It''s also a long time, just text them so you can prepare when you''ll meet."
"Later." My answer. I said goodbye here going up to my room.
I''m wondering whose friend I’m going to contact. My contacts only contain a few names and most of
them are my co -workers in Man. And your friends say mama has long had no connection with me.
"Reysa." the only friend I think I can go to or invite toe over. It''s just that I''m not sure if her number
is still active. It''s been a year since thest time I contacted her on this number and after that it hasn''t
happened again.
I tried calling it but yourwork operator he was using was answering.
I stared at my phone when a memory shed back.
"Hello, Ja. Did you get a call?" She answered after my third try.
"Sa ..." I called between my sobs.
"Hey, what happened? Why are you crying?"
"He did it again, he did it again." I confessed.
"My God." She muttered. "Where are you, I''m going with you."
"No. II am fine. ''I''m here at home, don''t go."
"Fuck! What''s wrong with that Russell and he''s always treating you like that. It''s milk! My God, Jianna.
Leave that alone, I hope you''lle to your senses. You don''t deserve everything anymore. of the
foolishness he does to you. " She said.
My crying got louder because I knew he was right and he didn’t just once tell me about waking up to
the truth but I didn’t listen. I didn''t listen to him and I still chose what my heart wanted.
"I should have listened to you." I uttered.
I left my phone and turned on myptop. I will only message him on Facebook.
I logged in on my ount that had been inactive for over a year now. When I decided to shut everyone
in my life, all the means that could connect me to them were also included. All my social media
ounts have been deleted except for my Facebook. Why, I also don’t know.
I immediately clicked the search bar and typed Reysa''s full name. I didn''t waste any more searching for
his name in my inbox because it was definitely covered up. To see that I have a better message is
boring to my eyes.
"I''m home. Are you busy?" I typed after reaching her name. She''s online about two hours ago and it''s
just past nine in the morning, she''s probably at work so maybe this afternoon or afternoon she can read
my message.
