PART 2

She's part.

My excruciated pain when I opened my eyes. I felt the crystalline bits slowly piercing my eyes. I felt bruises on my hands. I bear pain that I couldn't muster. My neck aches as I slowly turned a bit of it. I gradually saw the eerie of the surroundings – as I already knew I was in a church. It was hot. The sun rays directly hit my face leaving my left ear shaded. And as soon as I realize, It was already morning. I touched gently my left hand, to not let out quite pain from moving, to my obscurities, I found not mine but instead of hers. She was holding me still – that I felt comfort from her. I soothingly made myself stand – up and as soon as I made one step, she woke up.
I saw her eyes. It was enigmatic. The thoughts of her made me feel so pleased to help her stand – up. I know her pain – that last night she was struggling for me and now her legs not actually quite but almost stiffened in every part of it.
It was almost a minute of stare until I bumped my left foot on something.
It was a medium sized silver tray lying on the floor. It has 3 sets of food in it. It was really a starving moment but the look on the food can make one vomit for it was already spoiled. I examined the tray more. And for a while, a piece of paper bothered me. It was a note attached to a plate of the tray.
I looked closely. And as far as I remember, It was out telephone number at home.
"I'm sorry… I just wanted to let your mom know on where on earth are we… And the priest already permitted us to stay much this longer. And I'm glad that, I already found you." I said.
It was like, a 'kiss of a dementor' (in a Harry Potter book). It was dreadful, as if Harry's invisibility cloak had malfunctioned when I used it.
"You don't have to do it." I said to her in a powerless voice. I felt tired and can hardly move my self. It was somewhat that I could collapse anytime I take a step. And I wondered, "How on earth can I be able to bear this, this blistering pain?"
She stood up and went near me. I backed myself a little, so not to show a little being aggrieve on to this moment in time. I was too afraid of the truth. I never wanted her wailing.. and I never wanted her to be shocked. I am so afraid that she might not accept the fact – this fact. It was devastating; no wonder she had found me – timingly, when I needed someone around.
The pain started to mingle in my body again. Less now, physically and then it just circulate all throughout my body. It's just like blood flowing wherever it wants. But what matters most right now is that, she's here. I can now, cry my pain out.
She still neared me. Almost an inch away; I felt the heat flowed through my eyes. My body shook or rather tremble. My heart pounded wild. I can't take it anymore. I felt, I could collapse any moment.
"What happened to you?" Her eyes showed concern and full of hope. I stared at her uniform, yes, our school uniform. I never knew what consequences it'll take.. But then, I felt the security, from my best friend who never left me…
I cried harder and embraced her as much as I could, I sob deeply that no one could ever imagine. I wanted to let go of this pain I'm experiencing… This unbearable pain that I think even God couldn't even take.
"Celine…" I struggled so hard to let go of the words parked on my tongue. It was nasty. It was devastating.. and I can't bear it anymore..
"…I was raped" I wailed harder…
