Chapter 13 - Chapter 11 MUM

Chapter 11

χαρούμενο τέλος packing her things hurriedly fearing Sebastian arrival, then a tiny voice pierced the tension.

a two year old δάκρυα behind her walking up to her with her little leg.

 

Baby δάκρυα: mummy were are going

 

χαρούμενο τέλος jolted in fear, panting as though she ran a marathon. Χαρουμένο Τέλος's eyes welled up with tears as she knelt down to her daughter's level, forcing a smile to hide the pain and fear that threatened to consume her.A smile that mask of the pain she carries within.

 

 

χαρούμενο τέλος: baby you would have to stay with daddy for a while

 

Baby δάκρυα: why can't I go with you

 

her tiny voice cracking with emotion.

 

Χαρουμένο Τέλος's smile faltered, and she struggled to find the words to explain the unexplainable.

 

χαρούμενο τέλος: because I love you, so much, stay with daddy, okay

 

She hugged her daughter tightly, trying to imprint the memory of their embrace on her heart.

 

δάκρυα nodded silently, her eyes fixed on her mother's face as if trying to understand the complexity of adult emotions. Χαρουμένο Τέλος stood up, took a deep breath, and walked towards the front door, leaving δάκρυα standing at the bedroom entrance, watching her mother disappear from sight.

 

*****

 

The night after χαρούμενο τέλος disappearance

 

In the darkness of the night, no stars in the sky. Two men and a toddler in a small house, we see the men conversing at the dining table area while standing and the toddler on the couch. The parlor and dining area were connected with know doors or wall separating them.

 

Sebastian: she left

 

Mr. Charles: what do you mean by she left.(demanding for answers)

 

As Sebastian gave Charles a letter which read;

 

χαρούμενο τέλος: don't abandon her.

 

Mr. Charles: is this all, no further detail (as he became more agitated)

 

Sebastian: that is all she left me with

 

Mr. Charles: did you perhaps search her belonging to.... (suddenly cut shot)

 

Sebastian: there nothing to search

 

Mr Charles: what

 

Sebastian: she took everything

 

Mr. Charles: but left her baby

 

Sebastian: that thing is far from been a baby

 

****

 

The scene shifted to Χαρουμένο Τέλος, sitting in a dimly lit space, struggling to write a letter to Sebastian. She finally scribbled three wrote three powerful words "don't abandon her.

 

****

 

δάκρυα sat Beside her mother Χαρουμένο Τέλος, δάκρυα sat silently, her head bowed.

 

 

χαρούμενο τέλος finally spoke;

 

χαρούμενο τέλος: let get out of hear

 

 

 head jerked up, her eyes filled with hope.

 

δάκρυα: Huh?

 

she whispered, as if longing for the torture to end.

 

 

*****

Χαρουμένο Τέλος packed frantically, her eyes fixed on the clock ticking away on the wall.

 

δákρυα leaned in, her lips brushing against Zane's forehead in a soft, gentle kiss. The touch was tender, a silent promise of her love and support. Zane's eyes fluttered closed, his heart swelling with emotion as he savored the warmth of her lips. The kiss was a whisper of comfort, a reminder that they would always be together, always

 

As they parted, Zane's eyes shone with tears

 

Zane: I love you, am always gonna be here waiting, I'll never leave you

δάκρυα smiled,

 

δάκρυα: I'll come back, I promise

 

(with a final glance,δάκρυα disappeared into a secret passage, leaving Zane waving goodbye, tears streaming down his cheeks. The clock on the wall read 21:56, the ticking seconds echoing through the silence.)

 

*****

 

χαρούμενο τέλος frantically packing,in a dark room with a flashing light bulb she looked at the clock on the wall it read 22:00. she exhaled and brought out her phone and dialed a number.

 

*****

 

Outside of the Sebastian mansion, δάκρυα walked along the deserted road, her phone ringing in her hand. She answered, her voice barely above a whisper

 

δάκρυα: mom

 

χαρούμενο τέλος: hello δάκρυο, were are you now

 

δάκρυα: I just left the house

( her eyes staring straight ahead in the darkening landscape.)

 

χαρούμενο τέλος: let meet at the place we first met

 

χαρούμενο τέλος: were going to make it out, we got this, wait for me, okay(her voice filled with determination.)

 

δάκρυα held the phone close to her ear, her heart clinging to her mother's words.

 

δάκρυα: ok

 

χαρούμενο τέλος: This line will be unavailable soon, so don't bother calling. I'll see you soon, δάκρυo.

 

The line went dead, and the silence was oppressive.

 

χαρούμενο τέλος's voice was laced with exhaustion and relief

 

χαρούμενο τέλος: not long, now

 

In a dark room, χαρούμενο τέλος exhaled slowly, a man's voice echoed through the shadows, his face hidden by the darkness. "Found you," he said, his razor-sharp teeth glinting in the faint light. χαρούμενο τέλος was about to turn around when something moved towards her with incredible speed, and everything went black.

 

 She woke up in a room as she slowly opened her eyes she found out she was tied to a chair, twisting her wrist to untying her self but to no avail. She then heard a familiar voice.

 

Sebastian: hello love

 

He said it as a phrase with no meaning behind it

 

After they had a conversation and exchanged words χαρούμενο τέλος finally spoke;

 

χαρούμενο τέλος: do what you have to do

 

As she looked at him with the eyes of I trust you

 

******

 

 The scene unfolded like a nightmare. Fire spread, buildings collapsed, earth quake been stronger than ever, the ground began to open. χαρούμενο τέλος shouting on the top of her lung, calling out Sebastian name.

 

the ground opening up like a chasm. δákryα stopped and gazed up at the sky, her eyes fixed on the horror unfolding above. AS χαρούμενο τέλος viewed it from a window within the room as she is tied with her hands abover her head

 

 χαρούμενο τέλος's voice was barely audible 

 

 χαρούμενο τέλος:What is happening?

 

 The sky shattered like glass, red cracks spreading across the horizon. The cracks converged, revealing a massive eye closed shot as tho it slept facing down on the world

 

The world darkened as tho the sun was covered only the cracks in the sky illuminated the world

 

Sebastian: we don't have time

 

Sebastian walking in as his men bowed

 

 χαρούμενο τέλος: Sebastian. Where's δάκρυα 

 

Sebastian: we don't have time for this

 

 χαρούμενο τέλος called out his name several time to pressure him to find there daughter, as she pleaded for her daughter safety she was met with a devastating pain in her stomach as Sebastian bat came on on one with it, her voice faded as he became wick with each hit, χαρούμενο τέλος hung motionless but she still breaths, as sebastian swang his bat for the last time landing on her belly with a sickening thud. Her eyes met with δάκρυα face, having a slight smile on her face she said;

 

 

χαρούμενο τέλος: don't abandon her

 

Taking her last breathes

 

χαρούμενο τέλος narrating: suddenly everywhere became dark, I saw nothing but an endless dankness.

 

****

 

15 years ago

 

χαρούμενο τέλος stepped out of the house as the door lucked behind her she started bawling her eyes out

 

****

 

15 years now

 

Tear rolled down from χαρούμενο τέλος corpses as she dangles with her hand tied behind her

 

*****

 

χαρούμενο τέλος: δάκρυα, δάκρυα 

 

δάκρυα in a dark void as darkness surround her

 

δάκρυα : mum, where are you

 

δάκρυα came face to face with her mother and darkness swam around them.

 

χαρούμενο τέλος: klishi road. Present. House. δάκρυα 

 

δάκρυα : mum I can't understand you

 

χαρούμενο τέλος: klishi road. Present. House. δάκρυα 

 

δάκρυα struggling to desipher the message as her mind swam in mor confusion.

 

χαρούμενο τέλος: happy birthday, baby.

 

χαρούμενο τέλος started to crack like a person breaking up on a phone with bad network "I. miss.you". the clock stroke twelve

 

δάκρυα woke up as she was drenched in her own sweat, 마음 spoke from within the darkness

 

마음:are you alright

 

δάκρυα stood up and went to the side table beside 마음, poured a glass of water for her self, she sipped it then spoke

 

δάκρυα: yeah am fine

 

마음: well you were talking in your dream

 

δάκρυα: ohh

 

As she stared at the wall lost in thought, she faced 마음 and spoke

 

δάκρυα:I need your help
