Life in the Darkness CHAPTER 19
APHRODITE"What is Giovanni up to, Leonardo?" I asked, impatiently.We've been in the ER for hours, but Gaze still hasn't given us any sign of what we're going to do with the traitor!"Just wait, little brat," Leonardo sighed, leaning against the wall.I just rolled my eyes at him. He was so annoying!I'm exhausted!"Why not just imprison Carlos and end Sheena's suffering?"I can't wait for it to happen!"Can you please calm down a bit, little brat?" Leonardo asked me angrily.I rolled my eyes, crossed my arms, and walked over to Flor, who was sleeping. Her mouth was taped shut, and her hands and feet were bound.She thinks that's how easy we are to spin!"Wake up, bitch!" As I kicked Flor's foot, I yelled at her.If only this woman could die right now!But... oh no!"Hey, what are you up to?" Leon solicitedI glared at him and kicked her once more."Why can't you see? I'm going to wake up this b*tch! " I told him I was annoyed.If I had glared at Leon, he would have stopped me.I can

TINAI woke up when I felt something on my head and realized I was in the room."Hey,"I looked at the person who had tapped me and stood up, but I fell back down when I felt pain throughout my entire body."Don't move," Leon said softly to me as he supported me behind me, but I persisted until he supported me to lean on the headboard of the bed."How are you feeling? You've had a fever for three days, "he said, turning to face me.I've had a fever for three days.How?"Sheena!" When he stopped me, I said I should get up, but I just leaned back because I still felt pain in my body."I said don't move!" Leon said this angrily to me, so I looked at him."I can't just lie here! Sheena! She's been shot! "I expressed my frustration to him.He scratched his head and looked at me, irritated."She's fine. The bullet that struck her stomach has also been removed." He said it softly so I could breathe easily."Don't worry, the search for Sheena is over,"I stopped, my eyes widening at what he s

What have you been keeping a secret for a long time, Dad?What else should I be aware of?"Cristina,"I shook him and stepped back.I'm not interested in hearing my father's explanation.I do not also want toMy father explained, "I've wanted to say this before, but my tongue is receding, perhaps because I'm afraid the Carlos' will return to my family."I turned to face him, quiet.I know how to make Dad feel guilty, but I don't understand why he has been silent for so long."I used to be Carlos's driver..." Dad began.My eyes widened in surprise.He used to be Carlos's driver?!How?That's something I don't recall—Oh, is that why they left me with Auntie Rosalinda?"My wife is a maid, your mother," he said bitterly as he looked at me.Dad has already begun to tell stories.-Ronaldo Montano is flashing back to an event that happened 18 years ago when he talks about it now."Ronaldo, you are the transaction's driver," Mr. Carlos said to Ronaldo."All right, sir," Ronaldo said, but he

April 2003,9:45 p.m.Ronaldo carefully climbed a tree to observe the workers dispersed throughout the warehouse.He was simply waiting for the appropriate moment to enter the warehouse."Raul! Let's get something to drink here! ""All right, hold on!"Ronaldo smiled, knowing that this was his chance to enter the warehouse.He took his time entering the room where the children were.The children's faces lit up when they saw him.He motioned for her to be quiet and approached the children with caution, knelt down, and took his belongings from the bag to remove the bag's chains from the body."As I promised, I will make you escaped," he said to the children, but their smile vanished and was replaced by fear until Ronaldo removed the chains from their hands and feet.He was about to stand up when he felt the gun's muzzle point at his head, and he panicked and dropped his tool.He walked right into the trap!"Montano, what did you promise them?" Mr. Carlos asked, his gun aimed at his head

HARRYAll of the stories I heard about Father Ronaldo made me angry.The sister I had assumed had died was still alive.My sister who was found in the river before and the sister we buried before turned out to be different people.My parents' grief was not for Eleanor.But there's another child.How could Carlos have done this to our family?!They are the ones who owe our family something. My parents did nothing wrong to cause this to happen to us.I sighed heavily as I locked my gaze on Sheena.No, to Eleanor, my sister.I had no idea I'd be able to touch her again.I never expected to see her again.That's why I was confused when Gaze told me to look for information on Sheena, my sister, who was thought to be dead.She's my sister, who's been missing for a long time."What are your plans?"I sighed once again and looked at Gaze, who was leaning against the door."My emotions are mixed up right now. I'm not sure where to begin, and I'm not sure what I'm supposed to feel. " I responde

"How? I thought..." Dad sat weakly on my bed, stunned by Sheena's bruised body in the photograph."Eleanor was not the girl we buried. Daniella Garcia is the woman who gave her life to keep Eleanor alive. They were two children who were kidnapped 13 years ago. Daniella's family was murdered so that no one would be able to find their missing child. "I turned to face them and simply smiled."Do you remember, Ronaldo Montano? What the Carlos are after is All of the information posted about them is false. " I inhaled deeply and combed my hair."That is not perfectly true. Yes, he used to be the driver of the Carlos. He was also the driver in the two children's abduction, but he had no idea that his job would be to abduct the two children. He tried to keep the two children away, but the Carlos had caught him, and they had planned to kill him if Daniella hadn't blocked Father Ronaldo; otherwise, he would have died a long time ago. I'm not even sure what happened to Eleanor. Daniella's body

SHEENA(A/N: It was Sheena's dream, and it revealed everything that had happened to her.)-"Mommy and Daddy!"Who exactly are they? Who are these people?I was taken aback when I noticed they were staring at me."How lovely my princess is," said a man my father's age.My brow furrowed as I noticed him caressing my cheek.What's he doing with my cheek?Why did he call me a princess?Who are these people?I was taken aback when I saw myself in the mirror.In the mirror, I appear to be a different person in this situation.My body shrank as if I were a five-year-old child.Who exactly is this child? Why am I trapped in her body?This is not my look. Why would someone be different? Why don't I resemble Shanna?"Baby, didn't you like the dress I bought you?" a woman whose face I couldn't see because their faces were blurry and unclear."No, mommy, I love it!"Surprisingly, I spoke and smiled as well.Who exactly is she?What is the identity of the child reflected in the mirror?What am I

SHEENA"What's your plan? The engagement party is coming; are you ready to show up to your family?" Tina asked.I just sighed.I have no idea.Is it time for me to show up?Are my plans ready?I honestly don't know where to begin."It's okay if you're not ready yet, Sheena; there will be a right time for the Carlos family to pay," Tina said softly as she patted my shoulder.Is it right for me to seek revenge on my own family?Will I be free when I exact my revenge?Will I ever be able to forget everything?Will I ever be able to forget my past?"Will anything change if I get my revenge? Will they accept me as a child? " I asked.She looked at me."Sheena, not all stories are true; don't you wonder if they're really your family? Don't you wonder why they've treated you like that since? "What exactly does she mean?Is she questioning my own family?"I'm not asking you this to raise their suspicions; no parent wants to hurt their child."I suddenly stopped."Didn't you consider that? Ma

"Sheena,"I turned to Vanni, still clutching the business card I found in my dress pocket, thankfully undamaged.This is the card given to me by the woman sitting next to me at the funeral."What is it?" he asked."Ah."I smirked at him as I showed him my card."Come with me, we're going to an art exhibit!" I said, smiling, and pulling him into his clothes."What? We'll stay here; I can't hold myself back any longer, wife!"My eyes widened at him, and I hit him."Don't be naughty! I want to go to the Borromeo art museum!" I exclaimed.He frowned, as if he was remembering something."Is that Celeste Borromeo?"I nodded and looked at the card."Do you know her?" I asked, and he nodded."I've seen her at previous events; she's well-known because her family is well-known in business," he shrugged as he stood up to dress.I also put on a dress because I knew her museum would be open at 3 p.m. We may be late because he is slow."Giovanni! Come on! We'll go on a date after this!" I yelled at
Life in the Darkness EPILOGUE
Life in the Darkness...My life remained in complete darkness.Alone and without anyone to lean on.I wanted to give up but kept going.rising to face the struggle.I fought until the bitter end, until I attained the true freedom and justice that we all deserve.Justice in an abusive world. I almost took my own life because I believed that if I lived, I would have to live with the nightmare of the past.For the past 21 years, I have put up with everything for 21 years. The abuse and pain they inflicted on me For the past 21 years, I've been asking myself, "Why me?" "Why am I still the one experiencing abuse?" "Did I do something wrong?" But I've never found an answer because I've simply trained myself to do whatever they all wanted me to do.Is there still a choice for me? It is still forbidden if it is the last step out of the house. I didn't even notice the sun shining on me or how beautiful and bright the moon was. I wasn't even able to interact with other kids, go to school, or ha

I opened my eyes and gasped, but I was stunned because it was dark, and I noticed that I was shaking in a car trunk.I tried to loosen the rope around my wrist, but it was too tight. When I try to remove the rope, it hurts even more.What will Shanna do with me? Oh, no. I can feel the smoke as well. Fuck.I turned around, but I couldn't move much because my legs were also tied. The blood on my thigh and leg had also dried up, but I could still feel numbness throughout my body.I just closed my eyes, dripping sweat and biting my lower lip. I attempted to loosen my tie again, but it appears that the used tie is unusual.When I felt the car stop, I also stopped moving. I remained silent for a moment, starting to feel Shanna's every move leading to where I am now."Hmm, perfect location!" I overheard Shanna say.I took a deep breath and closed my eyes to keep her from noticing I was awake. When she opened the trunk, I had to brace myself.The full moon caught my attention when the trunk w

"Shanna."She just chuckled at me and looked at the graves of Mother Esme and Father Ronaldo."Sad. "Do you think it was because of you that they died?" she asked, smirking.I was taken aback and backed away. I will not be caught off guard by what she says. She's just doing this to bring out my guilt because she might be right that they died because of me."Why haven't you surrendered to the police?" I asked her seriously, as she was stunned."Why should I give up while you're still alive?" I'll give up only when you're gone."I backed away from her until I was leaning against their grave."Stop it, Shanna," I said as I walked away from her."It's your fault that my parents were killed, and it's your fault that our lives have become miserable," she said. She also started shooting at the museum."Don't blame me for everything, Shanna. You're the one who made your life miserable; I've been your slave for 18 years; isn't that enough? " I asked her as I continued to walk away from her, bu

We've all been preparing for Father Ronaldo's ceremony. I know he's with his mother, Esme, and Daniella wherever he is.He was not to blame for what happened to us; he was simply a victim of Carlos' cruelty.I just sighed, put on my sunglasses, and got out of the car.Tina, who was staring at her father's picture, looked stunned. I just averted my gaze because I couldn't bear to see her like this. Because of me, she lost both of her parents. Nobody else is to blame but me.I lost someone important to me as a result of my decisions."We've arrived,"I blinked at Gaze, who was unbuckling my seatbelt. I simply smiled and gazed out the window. I was surprised to see so many media outlets and people still calling for justice for us.Gaze helped me get out of the car, and we were greeted by the media right away, but our staff stopped them, and I just smiled at them before we went straight to where Dad would be buried, right next to Mother Esme."Sheena,"When I saw Fey with her mother, I wa

"Let us put an end to her pain."They remained silent as Gaze said something to them. They see him and realize they don't like what's going on. Especially considering what happened to his wife."This is entirely my fault. I-I'm sorry."When Gion did speak, his son simply stared at him."H-huh? H-hon? What are you talking about?" Vanessa asked her restless husband."I-I'm sorry—""What exactly did you do?"Gion was taken aback and looked at his son, who was staring at him blankly. He bowed and swallowed."Your tone, A-Axel."Gaze paid no attention to Vanessa, who was puzzled about her husband and son.They can sense the conflict between the father and son.Leon coughed to make their uncomfortable situation less awkward."Right now, let's think about catching Shanna. She's the only ones left that we can press on their cases. "Maybe we can preserve Dad Ronaldo's corpse and postpone his funeral while Sheena is still sleeping," Leon said, supporting his wife."We'll go first because my wif

SHANNANo.They are not dead.They're not going to kill themselves like that. They are familiar to me because they are my parents.When I heard what happened on the radio, I went straight to the morgue to see if I had heard correctly.I've hidden my face, and I'm not going to let them catch me.I tried to get into the morgue without alerting the media or the police. When I saw Mom and Dad were dead, I felt stabbed with pain, knowing they were truly gone.I can't believe they died so suddenly.I punched the mirror and examined the shattered mirror. I'm not going to let Sheena live. I'm going to kill her. It is entirely her fault that this is happening to me.If she had just killed herself before, none of this would have happened.She must die. I'll send her and her family back to hell. I'm not going to stop until I've killed her.I wiped away my tears as I prepared to leave my hiding place. They'll know where I'm hiding now. I'm not going to be caught alive.I packed my belongings and

What exactly is this? What is Carlos's trick?No, it is not true.They can't just die because I haven't gotten justice and Shanna hasn't been captured.The Chief accompanied me to the morgue, where the Carlos were brought after the police said they found them lifeless hanging from the ceiling. I'm not going to believe it until I see them.Many members of the media and the general public were waiting to hear about Carlos' death when we arrived."Mrs. Ezrael,"I took a deep breath and simply nodded to the Chief as he got out of the car and opened the door for me.I went down and was greeted by the media, but they were blocked as we went inside.We went straight to where Carlos had been taken. I was taken aback when I noticed someone lying on the stainless steel bed."Mrs. Ezrael?"I was just shocked by where the one with the blanket was. I couldn't move my feet to go inside because I couldn't accept their deaths. I can't believe they died without even feeling pain."Would you like me to

SHEENAI woke up to see myself in the room. I was about to make a move when I noticed someone was holding my hand.I peered to see who it was and noticed Tina had dozed off while watching over me."Oh my gosh, Sheena! You're awake!"I just smiled at her as she hugged me.I said quietly, "Thank you," and she moved away from me, smiling."Are you okay?"I simply nodded at her, but my smile faded as I remembered Father Ronaldo."S-sorry... It's all my fault," I apologized.I'm still blaming myself for what happened to Ronaldo's father. These things would not have happened if I hadn't been so desperate to catch the Carlos.Tina's parents died as a result of my actions. I was too careless in my actions, and I didn't consider the people around me."Sheena, I know you still blame yourself for what happened to my parents, but it's not your fault; Dad did the right thing, but some people just won't stop doing bad things.."Tina sobbed and covered her face."I-it hurts to accept... It's difficu
