BOUNDRY CROSSED

I leaned against the wall stuffing the black crystals inside the cigarette I was carrying, with my eyes slightly on the horizon. The loud laughter, which I knew belonged to Hendrik and his ten friends was unignorable. I carefully burnt the butt of the cigarette gracefully as the flavor of petrol filled my mouth.

I slowly closed my eyes enjoying the flavor. The sound of the door clicks opening caught my attention. I quickly peeled my eyes open and stared at Geno who had stepped out from his apartment which was beside the steps, I was standing on.

“Why were you following me today?” I asked placing the cigarette behind my back.

“Excuse me?” he asked sliding his hands inside his jean jacket’s pockets.

“I saw you, and that girl friend of yours”

“Anastasia?” he asked.

“I don’t know and don’t care,” I rudely replied.

Who will want to buy a crazy woman, did you see what she did to Mike?” Edge asked. “Let’s just silent her,” Bob suggested.“No, we are not murders,” Andy disagreed with Bob’s plan.“So, what do you suggest we do Mr. know it all?” Bob rudely asked.“I…” he stuttered.“You see, you also don’t know,”“You should all leave it’s late,” Hendrik finally spoke.“Bu…” Elie tired.“No, leave I want to go sleep,” Hendrik harshly said.“Fine, let go guys,” Edge said.I heard a footsteps and door open and closing followed.

    WOMAN REVOLUTION!I continuously scabbed my body which had turned red. “You know Rin, people like us are not meant to have anything good, so hoping we get people who actually love us is pointless,” echoed in my head.I finally stopped scabbing my body and got up heading to the sink. I stared at my reflection. Just like a year ago I still felt disgusted to see myself. I took the pair of scissors from the sink and started cutting my hair. I watched each hair falling on the sink.I placed back the pair of scissors on the sink near the pack of black crystal reaching my hand for the roll of bandages on the sink. I carefully wrapped it around my breast, until I couldn’t see any of that god forsaken part of my body.I pulled the old grey hoodie and pair of old jeans from the chair beside me wearing them. I took the pack of black crystal and shoved it at the back of my jeans. One last time I stared at the new Siren Weapon before me.I then walk

    POWERI watched Hendrik taking off his leather jacket and hung it o the hook just beside the door. Sweat dripped down his neck and his hands were stained with blood. Chills ran down my spine still with my eyes on him, not sure if he was aware of my presence.He took off his T-shirt wiped his bloody hands before tossing it on the floor. He glanced at me then shifted his eyes back on the leather jacket hung on the hook before him. My eyes suddenly caught sight of the fire arm tucked at the back of his pants. He slid his hands inside the pockets.I placed my foot on the floor, heading toward him slowly. I noticed his hands stopped moving and the corner of his eye kept its attention locked on me. Like a predator observing its prey. I embraced his waist. I felt his body tense up. The smell of sweat and cigarettes filled my nose as I held on him even more tightly.“Tired?” I softly asked.After that question I felt his hands untightening my g

    CONFESSION“Two packs are missing,” Hendrik stated.“Are you sure?” Bob asked.“What do you take me for? Yes, I’m sure!” Hendrik sharply said. “I had fifteen packs now there are only thirteen.”The door clicked open as I quickly moved to the balcony, pretending to be staring at the sky. Rosie appeared. She closed the door from behind her.She walked toward me and stared at the people walking below our building. Most were heading to work. My mother also used to go to work at these early hours before I got ready for school.She would always leave the house after she had prepared my lunch box even if I told her not to prepare it for me.“Crazy how seasons change so fast,” Rosie pulled me out from my wild thoughts.“What do you want?” I asked.She turned her gaze to me.“Don’t you think I should be the one asking you that?”“What do you mean?” I asked.“Do you really think Hendrik loves

The memory of Toll came back flooding. His dry lips on my lips while I tried resisting.“Toll, stop!” I had begged between tears.Why was she telling me all this?

    LOCATIONI watched Geno talking with the young woman with natural henna hair. He handed her a box which was wrapped with a newspaper, which she got excited after opening it. She gave him a hug, almost knocking him off his bicycle.“You are awake?” Rosie’s voice asked.I shifted my eyes toward her.“Umm,”She poured the hot water from the kettle beside me inside her mug. Her skinny hands took one of the clean tea spoons from the bowl, and poured three spoons of sugar inside her mug. Something about her presence was unbearable. I placed the cup of tea on the sink and headed for the door. Before I could step out she said, “Trusting Charlie is like trusting a man,”I felt my body tense. “She’s trouble, trust me I know,” She walked pass me heading to Eight who had stepped out his room rubbing his eyes.“Hello big boy,” She playfully said pulling Eight&

How could she be so confident, when she was just a single person?“Don’t worry about me, I’ll be fine,” she said puffing out smoke from her lips.“What are you to Rosie?” my mouth blabbed.She shifted her face toward me.“What?”“How do you know Rosie?” I asked.Her eyes widen. “What did you do to her?”I noticed her body stiffen. What was she hiding from me? She slowly reached in her jacket’s pocket.“Thank you for the information,” she dismissed me, while handing me bank notes wrapped with a newsp

    TRAP, KEEP FEELINGBlood dripped onto the floor as I blinked a multiple times. The screeching sound of the chair caught my attention. “I’ll ask you one last time, who are you working for?” Edge asked pushing my face up with a knife.Something about his eyes seemed dangerous, but not as dangerous as Hendrik’s. My eye suddenly caught sight of Andy standing beside the door. There was no sign of Hendrik, at least for the time being I could think of a way to escape.“I already told you, I don’t know what you are talking about!” I yelled. “Please believe me!”His hand moved closer to my face showing me a pack of black crystal on it.“How do you explain this? This was found in your clothes,” Edge explained.“N…”The memory of their conversation a week ago talking about someone stealing their stuff came flooding in my mind.“You

Their eyes seemed to move with me as they passed by. “Hi pretty,” a black haired man said passing by.After that sentence I felt my stomach hurt. It was just disgusting for someone as old as Plot to make that remark, especially to someone who was young enough to be his daughter. Something about his eyes seemed shady.The footsteps approaching caught my attention as the cigarette on my hand dropped on the ground. It had to be him, Jack.A familiar face appeared instead of Jack. “shit,” I mumbled pulling my hoodie up.“Siren, what are you doing out here so late?” she asked, almost pulling out her pistol from her coat.Shit April had just saw me.

Please.”She let out a sigh. “One of the girls will go with you,”“No, I will be fine on my own. You don’t have to worry about me, plus I am healing,”“Fine, but two minutes,”I smiled shortly as I got up.“Two minutes,”“Yes mother,”I walked out the crowded shop. I leaned against the wall as I slid my hand in my jacket’s pocket. I came out with a cigarette and lighter.Slowly I burnt it but as I slipped it inside my mouth. The scent of smoke filled my nose.

I slowly forced myself up. Crazy enough my body didn’t feel that aching anymore.I took baby steps heading to the door. I pulled the door open and walked inside the dark sitting room. The memories of Jin running around the sitting room while pulling my long skirt flashed in my mind.I quickly shook that memory off my head as I walked to the balcony.Cold wind blew my hair as I stared at the k-building which was a few meters from the L-building I was in.My eyes rushed at every corner of the flat window visible to my eyes, but there was no sign of her.“Sh

The laughter inside caught my ear. as I knocked again.I heard footstep approaching the door as my body started sweating. What was I doing? Why was I here? What was I going to say to him?He pulled the door open as his face appeared. “Siren,” he said in pure shock.“Hi,” I nervously said forcing out a smile. “Can I come in?”“Sure, yeah please,” opening the door for me.I walked pass him as the cigarette smoke entered my nose. The sight of most in the room created by the smoke caught my attention not that I minded. “The bandages, they are gone,”“I got them removed yesterday,” I replied walking toward the couches which I recognized were occupied.Three familiar faces caught my attent

    I stared at the flying moth that was going round and round the light bulb. “If it wasn’t ’for that boy my daughter wouldn’t be here,” my mother said from the other side of the room.“Yeah, I sometimes wish I could see him, but the nurses said he never mentioned his name, he only dropped her near the hospital gate ,” Plot replied.“Do you think he was one of the kidnappers?” my mother asked.“I doubt,”I sat upright avoiding trying to ignore their conversation. My eyes stared at the smaller dresser which was a few meters from. The broken mirror with few photographs reminded of the day she broke it. How angry she had been that day and how much she had regretted breaking it. Her leg moved out the duvet cover. She placed it in the floor. Slowly she walked toward it using the bed for balance.Crutches were starting to ignore her. She needed to get back to her feet. She still had unfinishe

    DRAINED OUT!I sat on one of the few chairs on the balcony, with my eyes on the building before me. I slowly puffed out smoke from my mouth. Yep, I hadn’t stopped smokingThere she was, walking around her room carrying a basket. It was Apple, Apple Sun. It seemed like more than a year had passed since we had stood in this balcony together. How much amazed she was that day to see the view to her bedroom. “So you always see me?” he had asked.Before I knew it my mind was digging into the memory where she was dancing. How perfect her steps and turns had been. She had looked like a princess in a fairy tale. A true perfection. I still wondered why she never entered dome dance competition since she was really good in dancing, guess I too could draw but had never entered any drawing competitions let alone a competition of any sort.Maybe her dancing was the same as my drawing talent. I found my mind digg

It looked better than I had hoped.Plot also walked inside. “We’ll leave you all,” the nurse with brunette hair said before her and the other nurses walked out.“Siren,” Plot said walking toward me.He sat at the edge of the bed. “You…”“Look beautiful,” my mother finished his sen
