chapter 11: left behind

Buzz.... Buzzzzz.... Buzzzzz...

Sound of alarm clock

" Angela get out of your room now please..."

Alarm clock still continue's from buzzing

" How long will you continue from locking me up... Sigh... I'll leave your breakfast here, and please eat it all honey.. I need to go to work okay... ' silence for a moment when Angela off her alarm ' I'll lock the door.."

she tried to grab the doorknob to open Angela's door but she stop Midway... Her mother felt sad and teardrops falling on her cheeks...

" Be careful honey I'll leave now..."

Then she left with regrets for not opening the door...

At Angela's room...

Reminiscing the moment she saw railee fall on the cliff railings..

Angela was crying, her head on her knees..

Beep.. beep .. beep..

Cellphone is ringing.. but angela don't have a will to answer it...

She just looking at it...

Then it stops...

49 miscalls registered on screen...

It was Beth her betfriend who miscall so frequently...

Why you left me...

Upon I look on the past all the memory that it'll last ,

since like yesterday that we had meet,

this is not the way,

that we had plans and tried to understand what happens to all the time and all the places

I guess it's time...

I need to face it, your not here...

That you've never been to close that's why I think...

But I found to let go of all the memories we hold...

maybe its time to move on...

without you...

Railee...

Why...

Angela was wiping her tears...

It's been a two weeks since that incident happens..

The search and rescue team stops from finding railee a week ago.. they said..

" it must be a current that drag away the corpse or maybe he was still alive..."

Investigator questioning us about a light we saw a moment railee fell on the cliff... And the impossibilities of a man to fall directly to water, the investigator show us some explanation when he drop a beer bottle..

the result was..

it directly broke to seaside rocks...

And he said...

" There is no blood on the rocks means there is no sign a person fell here, even if he jump directly, he can never cross the rocks because the water was ten meters away from cliff... He won't make it, or maybe he walked away here and never came back before we noticed, you said he have problems with his family right... So try to find him instead..."

" But ..!!!"

" Alright miss, I've done my work here I'll make reports on what you said to me together with my analysis, so don't worry.. well call you later for further notice if we have leads okay..!!"

" Okay..."

I remember the day we meet...

I was 6 years old lost in city... My father was so busy with his cellphone arguing.. when I saw a raindrops start falling from the sky, I saw a woman open her umbrella then I just move next to her, but I realized my father was gone a moment I stepped inside woman's umbrella...

" Papa... Papa... "

I shout so loud but everyone is in a hurry a man bumped at me and I fall to the ground..

" Kiddo look where you walking.."

as if I was the one who bumped..

the was rain getting worse..

so I decided to take cover on a restaurant canopy...

I was so cold...

Then...

" What do we have here.."

" Hey cid someone is trying to take our spot.."

" So you are taking our spot huh...?!!"

" No.. I'm just lost..." I answered...

" Huh!!!?"

" Cid she was just making excuses don't listen to her..."

" No I'm not making excuses little brat..."

" Who do you call brat? Me.."

" Sounds like this one is tough..."

" Hahaha did you hear what she said to you cid...BRAT!!"

" You'll gonna regret for calling me brat..."

The one they call cid hold me in my shoulders and stomp me on the restaurant wall...

He was about to punch me..

I just closed my eyes waiting for that knuckle..

but...

" Hey dude..." not nearly voice of a kid i heard

I was wondering why it doesn't hit me and I open my right eye...

Cid was looking to his left next to restaurant entrance...

" Here it is you've been waiting guys..." I saw a familiar faces from our apartment nextdoor child...

" Your lucky today huh... Next time I'll see you here... I'll surely.."

" Alright guys the food will spoil shortly better move now or you'll regret it..." the kid from our nextdoor apartment said..

Cid was lookking at me with angry face and bitting his upper lips.. I was scared at that moment... Then he pushed me to wall and he run together with his colleagues through a kid nextdoor, and hand over a big plastic...

" Really nice... See yahh..."

" Common we need to hurry..."

" To hideout, March.."

The three brats was gone but I was still cold... The kid nextdoor glimpse at me then enter the restaurant..

That cold-hearted kid...

I said to myself...

I sit and bend with my knees...

" There she is mama..."

I have surprised when I looked where the voice came from...

It was the kid nextdoor...

And his mom was looking at me smiling..

" Come inside cute girl... It's cold outside..."

His mom I can't resist so I respond and go inside...

And it was their restaurant the kid said...

" Gezzz she was always like that .. " the kid nextdoor

I just look at him and, I was still confused about the situation...

" Your Angela right.. they call me railee, Rai for short.." he was making a shakehands... And I grabbed it .. but for some reason our hand seems like there was a electricity volt crawled to my shoulders... I suddenly pulled back my hand... And we laugh...
