2024-10-29 19:42:56I went inside nanny Silva’s room and took the necklace that I gave her inside her cabinet because I wanted to wear it to remember her. I hold the heart pendant of the necklace and starts crying because of the pain that lingers. Her death is unacceptable. She’s a good, loving and unselfish woman. She didn’t deserve to die that way. I partly blamed myself for forgetting about how she died. I didn’t fight for her, I was just a teenager back then, and I left her alone.
“I am sorry, nanny”, I whispered while holding the necklace close to my heart.
“Babe, let’s go. The flowers are ready”, Echo said. Holding a basket of flowers that he picked from nanny Silva’s garden.
I wiped my tears and composed myself because I needed to be okay going to the cemetery to visit nanny

It’s time for worship again. I didn’t wake Echo up because I know he was very tired yesterday because we went to the cemetery to visit nanny Silva’s grave. I kissed him on his cheek and whispered, “I love you.” I gently closed the door and drove to the chapel. “Helena”, Brother Even called me. He is waiting for me to arrive and I know why. He will ask me about John if I have some news about John. “Do you have any news about John?” He asked while wiping his eyeglass with the handkerchief he is holding, and he wore the eyeglass again after wiping it and looked at me, waiting for my answer. “I am trying to check social media, but I don’t get any”, I lied while looking directly into his eyes. “Becaus

Today is the day. I cooked amazing food for our lunch. I prepared everything that would please them. The confetti, my welcome greeting for them, and even some of the balloons that Echo blew. I will hold the lunch in our backyard for them to see the flowers that nanny Silva planted. I put the long table and the chairs at the top of Belinda’s grave because I know they are too dumb to notice. I put all the foods well presented on the table for the girls to enjoy, for their mouths to water so that they will be excited to eat the food that I cooked, and of course, I get the bible from nanny Silva’s room and put it on the table beside the food. I checked everything if I missed something before they arrived, and I think everything is set now. WE WILL HAVE A PARTY. “Everything is set now, babe?” He asked and waited for my answer; maybe I still needed help from him.

I got tired after a long day, and I fell asleep when I heard a girl crying downstairs inside nanny Silva’s room. I stand up, with my messy hair and sleepy eyes. I wear my slippers, and slowly open the door to avoid creating the sound so I will not wake Echo up. Because I know he’s tired; it’s been a long day for him too. I went down to check who was crying. I walk slowly, passing to the kitchen to go to nanny Silva’s room. I saw mama, daddy, John, and the girls still at the dining area, watching me walk slowly. When I reached the nanny’s room, I slowly opened the door to check who was crying and I saw a young girl who is about six years old; wearing a dress with a teddy bear and a red balloon crying red balloon design on her dress., scared from the thunder and lightning inside the room and an older woman hugging her, comforting her and singing her a lullaby. I went inside to look closer, and I was surprised because it was nanny Silva and me. I remembe

I try to go to the chapel expecting to see Brother Ven because I know chapel is his life, and he is always there even when it is not time for worship. I told Echo that I needed to meet Brother Ven to talk to him about the mission. I know he will understand me and help me because we are both God’s angels on different levels. I bought him the bananas and apples that I brought from the mini-market because I am trying to be nice so he would say yes to me. I hope I can bribe him with the bananas and apples. I parked my car near the balloon vendor who was standing under the mango tree waiting for someone to buy his balloons and I went inside the chapel. I looked around to see him, but he was not there. The chapel is clean and quiet. I walked further, and I saw him at the back of the chapel talking to a woman. They looked serious, and I walked to him, and the woman smiled at him and walked away before I went near him. I don’t know, but my feet an

I went to Brother Mike’s place and waited for him to go out. His house is small and simple, with a little sunflower in a pot at the front of his house. I don’t know if the flower is real. I have been waiting for this moment since my memory of his comeback. I research like a detective where he lived so that I will pick him up or kidnap him. I am waiting inside the car with Echo. Waiting for him to come out. “Come out. Come out wherever you are,” I whispered while waiting for Brother Mike. I saw a chubby little girl go out of the house. She is wearing shorts and a shirt and her hair is tied with a pink ribbon that makes her cute. She wears her pair of slippers, and she calls her daddy, and it is Brother Mike. I saw him kiss his daughter. That is why I wonder if he is sexually abusing his daughter too. I watched the kid leave. She went to her playmate living next door with her buck

“See you later, Brother Mike”, I whispered to him. He is still unconscious. I know that Brother Mike will not escape because, aside from Echo, who is guarding him. His legs are broken too. I kissed Echo goodbye and told him that I wouldn’t take long. I left Brother Mike with Echo because I need to do an important thing since I can’t sleep and I can’t take the red car anymore. I need to get rid of it. I felt mixed emotions, making the fuse of my brain spark, and I couldn’t think straight anymore. That is why I need to get rid of the red car, and I will do it right now.I went to South St. and saw the red car parked at the front of the house of the family who shouted at me. It’s past midnight, and the surrounding is so quiet. The neighbor living three vacant lots away from them is already sleeping. I looked around to check if there was someone the

AFTER A WEEKI went to the grocery just to buy two bottles of orange juice and a pack of cigarettes. When I saw many people gathering together at the fountain park near the grocery store, they were all wearing white t-shirts, with a white candle each and a paper. I wonder why they are gatherings? I parked my car near the grocery store and went down to buy what I needed, but before I went inside the grocery store, I heard a rumor that there was a killer on the loose in our place and called everyone to be aware and to keep themselves safe. That gave a scare to everyone, and the last victim was the Husband and wife in South St. The killer burned their car while they were inside the car. I take the paper from the young man who is wearing a white t-shirt too. Standing beside the door of the grocery store.“Excuse me, what is goi

I searched for the girl on social media using my laptop to know more about her. She is Rachel Mein. She's twenty-two years old, the same age as me, working as a sales executive in a glass company, loves to wear contact lenses, is a freak, and a loser because she is fighting with someone here in social media named Gail because of a boyfriend issue and the only daughter of the husband and wife that I burned inside the red car. Perfect! now let’s see if she can fight me.“Where are you going?” Echo asked.“To the girl that I want to teach a lesson,” I answered. He looked at me with questioning eyes.“Her name is Rachel Mein and she is a freak,” I added.“You want me

They found Helena dead inside her room. The blanket was tied to her neck and she is lying on the floor. She has bruises and wounds on her arms, legs, and face. Which is they didn’t know how or where Helena got it. They checked the record of the CCTV but they didn’t find anything and they didn’t see anyone get inside her room. Her body and her room are full of fingerprints from different people. Which the investigator didn’t know from whom are those fingerprints.Her death is a mystery because the last record that they watched about Helena seems like she is talking to different people even though she is all alone inside her room. She is talking as if there is someone inside her room. She looks so distressed, scared, hopeless, and disturb. There is a record also that she is just standing alone, sitting alone, facing the camera alone and she looks like she is not herself.
HELENA CHAPTER: 29
I began to remember when the police were taking them out one by one. My parents, the girls, John, Carmen, Brother Mike, Belinda, and Arvin. They are all in a decomposition stage. They are all rotten and stink. The fat, healthy worms that look so full by eating their flesh are going out from their mouths, eyes, ears, and nose. They are the ones that I am talking to that I thought were talking to me too and they want to be with me. I thought they wanted to eat the food that I cooked, I thought they wanted to stay with me but that is all in my head. I just thought about all of it. I just thought about all of it because of the sadness that I felt, because of the feeling that I am unwanted. I thought they need help but I am the one who needs help. “You are crazy, Helena” Echo said. while staring at me. Wants me to realize everything.
HELENA CHAPTER: 28
I didn’t notice that I fell asleep and another day has passed and I am still here inside the hospital. It is so quiet that I can almost hear my own heartbeat. I feel pity for myself because I feel like I am a lab rat used for experimentation. While on my bed facing the wall I heard the door slowly opening. I turned around to see who it was. I stood up when I saw the man go inside holding a tray of food again with my medicines. He put it beside me and told me to eat it and take my medicine before going out.I stare at the food. One pale macaroni soup, egg sandwich, water in a plastic bottle, and medicines that I don’t want to take. I eat the egg sandwich and the macaroni soup even though I don’t like the taste because I am already hungry but there is no chance that I will take the medicines that they gave me. Like what I did to the first batch of medicines that they gave me.

I heard the door open and there’s a man who is wearing white like me who went inside and wore a straight jacket. We went to the other room near my room and I saw Doctor Castelo sitting and waiting for me. I sat in front of her. Like before she had her pen and paper and a camera beside her. I know she is recording me like before. She looked at me and took a deep breath.“How are you, Helena?” She asked me. With her sweet and calm voice. I know that she is hiding a demon behind her sweet and calm voice. So I ignored her question.“You want to go out from here?” She asked and that made me look at her.“You need to work for it, you need to show me that you are okay,” She said while looking at me. Waiting for my reaction

I heard the door open again and I felt nervous because of the crime that I committed. I tried to wipe the blood on my hand but it is already dry and I can wipe it. So I hide it behind me. The man wearing white with a tray of food went inside and put the tray on my bed beside me. He looked at me because I was looking at him and then he looked under the bed to where I was looking.“No… no… no” I whispered while I am still nervous and scared that he might discover the dead body that I hide under my bed. He looked at the floor where I was looking. I hope he will not see the bloodstains left on the floor. I looked away when he looked at me for a second and he said “Eat your food now and take your medicine” And he was about to leave and close the door when I told him to wait. He looked at me again but I couldn't look back at him.

I turned around when I heard the door slowly opening to see who it is. The bright light dazzled me. I cannot see the face of the one who opened the door. I know he is a man and he is standing in front of me.“Babe,” He said and his voice sounded familiar. He walked near me and he closed the door and my eyes opened wide when I saw Echo. My heartbeat fast because I can’t believe that he is here now. Standing in front of me.“I knew it,” I said and I ran and jumped to him with excitement because he is here now.“I knew that you were going to come and rescue me,” I said with a smile while kissing him because of excitement that finally my prince charming is here and he is going to rescue me.
HELENA CHAPTER: 24
I woke up sweating and gasping for air because of the dream that haunts me or rather I'd say a nightmare or a past that keeps on coming back. I looked around to make sure that I am really awake now. The window is already there and the light is not blinking anymore. I saw the CCTV facing me. I pinched my wound and I felt pain. Yes, I confirmed that I am already awake and alone inside this room. Good thing that it is just a dream even if it looks real and I hope it is not another lost memory that keeps on coming because I don’t want to taste another bitterness from the past. I don’t know what time it is and I still feel sleepy and tired even though I just woke up. I didn't sleep well because of the nightmare that I had. I feel sick too, maybe because of staying long inside this boring room. That is why I really need to go out as soon as possible even though I don't know-how. I yawned because I still want to sleep but I am scared that I might

I heard the voice of an old woman who is waking me up because I need to go to school. I saw nanny Silva when I opened my eyes, that is why I immediately hugged her. “I miss you so much,” I told her “I am just here, I never leave,” She said while hugging me and tapping my back. Her warm embrace comforts me. I hope this one is real. She let me wear the dress with a teddy bear and a rooster stitched on it. “It still fits on me,” I said in amazement because I can’t believe it still fits because I remember the last time I wore this was when I was a kid. “Yes, it still looks good on you,” She said with a smile while I turned around as if I am in front of the mirror-like I am doing before every time I wear my
HELENA CHAPTER: 22
I woke up in a tiny room with no Television, aircon, or even electric fan. Only a bed with a white blanket and white pillow and a glass window that is impossible to open. I looked around and I found a camera. A surveillance camera. I know that they are watching me from outside. I stood up and I tried to open the door but it was locked from outside. I tried to shake the door but it was too hard and too strong. I can’t even shake it and it is impossible for me to open it. “Hello, is anyone there?” I asked but nobody answered. I put my ear against the door to listen if someone is outside but I can't hear anything either. I tried to shake the door but I couldn't shake it. It is too hard and heavy. I feel like they don’t want to let someone out once they put it in. “Hello!” I called again but this time in a louder voice. Almost
