Though my eyes were shut but i haven't completely lost consciousness, then i felt someone lifting my body up and carried me. He was running towards something but i sensed it was a car.
I tried opening my eyes and i saw a man quite tall and a little bit dark in complexion, he dropped me at the back seat of the car as he drove as fast as he could; Then, i lost consciousness.
How can i still be alive?
I woke up and saw a young man by my side and i asked "Who are you, please?".
"You really don't need to know now dear" He answered. I have seen this face somewhere before i kept thinking, i was so sure of it. Well, thanks to him here i am not dead, back to this wicked and dreadful world. Why couldn't i just die! I asked myself deep inside.
I got discharged and left for my home and he decided to give me a ride. On getting home, I met Tina by the door, she gave me a tight hug and said "I knew you'd do something stupid like this, that was why i gave Henry the keys to the house, My mind never lies to me you know" She said happily.
Obviously, she was happy that I'm not dead. "So, you know this guy?"I asked her.
"Yes, i do. He is actually your neighbour and he lives in the next estate right there" She answered.
We entered into the house and sat on the couch. I knew for sure that I've met this guy somewhere i just couldn't recall. "Henry, how did you get so close with my mom and my friend?" I asked. Then, Tina cuts in...and said "Well, your mom was a good woman and care for others like hers. She helped Henry and supported his dreams and he was very grateful to her and he promised to stand by you if anything ever happens".
"The rape and the death of your mom went down Chloe" He answered.
"I have to leave now Chloe, i have a paper again tomorrow, i will come see you afterwards. I love you" Tina said as she takes her leave.
Henry held my hand and i slapped him subconsciously. "Oh i am sorry, it's just that i really don't like any man touching me anyhow, sorry" I apologized.
Yes, i am now scared of boys and don't want anything to do with them, i then told Henry to leave 'cos i do not want what has happened before to happen again.
I wanted to be alone but Henry seems to be proving stubborn and not wanting to leave.
"I will not leave you to do yourself any harm, I will not leave your side" Henry said. I tried pushing h out, then I fell and hit my head a little and then he held my hand and pulled me up.
Suddenly, all my memories started coming back as I looked straight into Henry's eyes. I tried remembering them all and then I was able to capture Henry's face right after the rape.
I asked myself silently and shockingly as I went to sit on the couch, "Could it be Henry?".
