Chapter 83 - ESCAPING FROM THE DARK FORCE (CURING PRETENSE)

A girl was walking somewhere in a main road, and later on, a car was approaching beside her. She knew the driver, and his only passenger on the back was his child, a little boy.

The man stopped his car, and invited the girl to hop in. The little boy on the back moved to the front beside his father to give space to the girl. The car was a little narrow, just enough for them.

After that the girl, went down from it as she arrived in another street. The car, then, continued and started to move away from there.

However, as she looked back, in a few distance away, she saw the man was already crying on the road, carrying his bloody son upon his arms.

She had no idea what had happened to them. The man was so sorrowful to see his son bathing in red blood, breathless.

Then, the girl saw a group of men, they're chasing every kids they saw in the street. The girl felt there's something wrong that's happening around her.

Those group of men were going house to house, especially in the populated areas where houses are built next to each other, built by cheaper materials. They're not only giving medicine but forcing everyone to take it whether they like it or not.

She hurriedly hid herself in the corner among the street children who were all grouping together, some were sitting and the others were lying on the street. The girl, abruptly, hid below a white thing covering herself as she pretended to be asleep.

However, those men approached that corner where she's hiding. She heard someone was giving medicine to the street children, and they fed it to them personally, by force, no one could refuse.

She thought no one could see her, but she's wrong. One man saw her hiding in that white cover, he reached out for her and wanted to feed her the medicine, however, another man came to the rescue, he presented himself to the first man, and grabbed the spoon filled with medicine, a syrup from the other man and pretended feeding her by it.

But, unknown to the others, the 2nd man didn't feed it to the mouth of the girl, instead he just dropped the syrup to the ground, where no one could notice.

Then, they decided to move on to the next, to the next corner.

However, another group passed by to the corner where the girl was hiding. Despite of covering herself, another man saw her again and this time, he felt her pulse and said,

"Why she's cold?"

He was wondering why the girl's temperature was cold, and for him it was strange, though the other man insisted that the girl was already given a medicine.

The girl thought she couldn't escape from it this time.

Those men were still talking to each other when she found an opportunity to run away from there.

The group of men saw her running away, so they chased her everywhere she went.

The girl ran fast catching her breath, all she wanted was to survive and to escape from them. So she ran, and ran, and ran, climbing every stairs, entering any houses.

Until, she came in a higher ground, when a different man appeared, another stranger, out of nowhere, he's waving at her, and he was helping her where to go.

He helped her in finding a place to hide.

They came to a small, vacant house. It was made of wood and galvanized iron roof.

The girl entered, it was an empty one, no furniture, no people.

She was panicking, and finding a safe place to hide where no one could see here. Until, she opened the back door, but the man said,

"There's no escape door there."

The girl realized, what he's saying was true, the back of the house was a dead end, it's like a high terrace, the house was situated in a high place, and below it was a very high edge, so steep, that anyone might die if one will jump into it.

So the girl, moved back, until she came to look up above towards the roof. The roof was made of galvanized iron, and she found an idea, maybe that's the only way out - going up there.

She moved up and found a hole on the roof, enough for her body. The opening was a square like on the roof, showing its wooden beam supporting the iron roof.

What had happened possibly to the girl? Does she survived and successfully escaped from the chasing group?

Can she possibly hide above the roof?
