Tonight Evie couldn't sleep at all. Every time she closed her eyes, fear arises in me. This is the first time Evie having trouble sleeping, she don't know what it's called. That her heart is pounding every time she will fall asleep, there is a small kick that wakes her up again. There's something that won't let her sleep, and she can't fight it.
She just lay on her bed, and stared at her ceiling. And when her alarm clock rang again indicating morning had come, Evie immediately turned it off and went to the bathroom. Evie purposely took a cold shower that morning, she let her body shiver as the cold water flowed. She want to get rid the signs that she didn't sleep all night, before her mother, Olivia, or Julia will be suspicious.
Evie has heard an assumption that taking a cold shower after not sleeping all night is as dangerous as suicide. However, she still alive after taking a bath, they're boasting again. After all, she certainly wouldn't
Police lines were stretched to protect the crime scene from people arriving after the tragedy of a schoolgirl who committed suicide by jumping onto a moving train. Of course they didn't know that the girl's name was Evie from Beatancy High School. Several policemen came to collect evidence belonging to the victim, medics arrived ten minutes later. They brought a body bag to replace the cloth covering Evie's body.Meanwhile, the medical officer's car was ready outside the station to take the body to the hospital. Police officers found Evie's belongings, a beige bag with brown straps. The sides of the bag were torn apart, the leather and fabric layers dangling outward. It was from that bag that the police found the identity of the poor student, her name was Evie Alinac Harvey.From a brown purse with center seam connecting top to edge. The police found a small note containing several phone numbers that appeared to be relatives of the victims.
Humans can plan, but God decides. The words floated through Olivia's mind as she and her mother came out of the morgue, her mother devastated by Evie's death. She had to support her mother's body when leaving the morgue, and sat her in a long wooden chair in front of the morgue.Lucas offered her mother a glass of water. Her mother's gaze was now completely blank, her face almost expressionless. Only her tears continued to flow down between her cheeks, making her eyelids sparkle as the sunlight hit her.Olivia took her phone, she called another relative. At a time like this, someone must accompany her mother while she takes care of the body of her sister. Before they left the morgue, the medical officer said that someone had to take care of Evie's body. She needed a retrieval certificate, and a death certificate from the hospital before Evie's body was transferred to the funeral home.A few minutes later, her uncle and a
When Leah, Mia, and Grace woke up, they were already in the infirmary, some students took them there. They were lying on mats in the infirmary which felt stuffy and hot. Leah started to wake up and when she opened her eyes, it turned out that Darcy was there. Evie was the first thing that crossed Leah's mind when she fell into a slump and her tears started flowing again.Darcy who watched could only ponder, he didn't know what to do. Likewise Althan who stood leaning against the wall. The walls of the infirmary are pale white, and the bottom part of the walls are starting to turn black because of the dirt and scribbles of students who deliberately scribble on the walls. Near Althan leaned a lot of health signboards and posters. Techniques for handling students who have fainted, to how to clean wounds.There were only them in the infirmary. All the students have gone home, and some of them have joined the teachers to the funeral home. Grace a
Luckily when they arrived, the coffin had not been buried. Leah, Grace, Darcy, and Althan had joined the Beatancy High School students who were mourning. For the umpteenth time, Grace cried when she saw the coffin containing Evie's body being lowered into the grave, Leah and Mia, who hugged her to strengthen her, even cried with her. They no longer cry because they are sorry like when they were in the infirmary, now they cry because of a question that pierces their chest. Why would they do something absolutely fatal for the sake of envy? None of them could answer that question, they could only cry to wash their dirty souls. If that's all enough.Almost all the mourners who came cried when the coffin containing Evie's body began to be lowered into the grave, the clear sky turned dark and a cold wind swept over the mourners. The leaves on some of the big trees began to move in the gust of wind, they whispered in a language that could never be understood but could
When the funeral procession was over, the mourners began to greet Olivia and her mother. They give a series of words to convey how sorry they are for Evie's death. Olivia served them with the best smile she could give and a modest thank you.At first it was relatives who gave their condolences, then neighbours and close family friends. And the last one is all shook hands with Olivia and her mother without missing a beat.They also tried to strengthen the feelings of Olivia and her mother to let Evie go because it was God's way. Olivia wanted to laugh out loud when she heard that old line, which God? That reckless God? God who left her sister untouched until her last moment? God had to give help to her sister at the last moment of her life as she often saw in TV series and cinema, but the God didn't do it anyway. So, just tell God, if I don't need comfort from that.Almost all the teachers and students of Beatancy High Sc
Mia stepped into her house, Leah watched her until she stood on the veranda of the house. Mia smiled her last smile before entering the house, and Leah ordered the driver to leave Mia's house. Leah told the driver to drive faster because she was really tired, and needed a warm shower to relax her tense muscles.Her stomach was also starting to feel hungry, after the nausea whacked her stomach for several hours, finally the tight feeling of hunger came. Not until fifteen minutes later Leah's car arrived at her house, Leah's driver drove the car very carefully when they entered garage.Leah immediately got off as soon as her car was perfectly parked, she walked into the house. Heavy rain fell when Leah opened the front door of her house, she looked up. It finally rained after the black clouds had hung in the sky for a long time, and the air was getting colder and colder.Leah passed the living room and found her mother sit
This morning Leah was late, she getting out of her car and she rushed to class. Last night she could not sleep because of the sound she was sure was heard from outside her bedroom window, the sound was like the sound of someone crying bitterly. The voice sounded so far away, but it was clear enough for one to know that it was crying. There was someone crying in front of her house last night. Although she wasn't so sure, a part of her brain that was in charge of recording what was happening around her said so.There has been a significant change in the school's atmosphere, now Beatancy's students don't talk much anymore. Those who used to shout, run around, and mock anyone who was suitable as a target now just sat in silence.They were just busy eating their food, even students who were known to be troublemakers turned a hundred and eighty degrees into quiet students. As if there was a black fog that enveloped Beat
The sun had set about two hours ago when Grace had dinner with her mother and little brother at their house big but empty. That night, for the umpteenth time, her father had to go out of town to review her new business. As a businessman, her father never trusted other people to inspect his new business location. Sometimes just a few days, but often weeks.Grace has accustomed to this situation, her brother and mother depend on her when her father was not at home. The maid her father hired only come in the morning and go home after sunset. After that she was the one who had to take care of her mother who had been paralyzed for several years ago, since virus attacked her mother brain cells.A case that is quite rare and usually attacks children. A year after the virus was diagnosed it developed in her mother's brain cells, her mother suffers from permanent paralysis which causes her to spend time in a wheelchair. In fact, what was sad was that her mother's motor skills slowly disappeared
Lightning struck near Leah's house. The strong wind slapped the window of her room. The hinges of the lock came off the hook, the window came loose, opening and closing like someone was banging on the door from the outside.Leah, who was sleeping, was suddenly startled when the sound of the window banging was heard loudly in her room, she got up from a half-lying position. Her body leaned against the headboard of her bed. She was silent for a moment, staring at the clock which showed one in the morning, smelling the scent of rain from the gust of wind went into her room.The window was still moving like a mental hospital prisoner going berserk. She got up and walked slowly towards the window. With both hands pulling the window inwards so that it would no longer move wildly, she sighed in annoyance when she saw that the window lock latch had been damaged by the strong gust of wind. She turned to the dressing table near her bed, then let go of the handle, letting the window move wildly a
It had been almost a week since she had shaved her armpit hair, until when she raised her hand, she saw a row of black hair in her armpit. Grace was stunned for a moment, what if tomorrow one of her friends caught the black hairs in the folds of her armpits? Surely she would be embarrassed by it. After taking the headache medicine, Grace took a special women's razor from the toolbox hanging near the medicine box.The razor consisted of four sharp blades, it was new (maybe Grace bought it three days ago). The razor is pink with Rubber teeth on the handle to make it easier for users to grip. Grace opened the safety of the knife blade, then washed it first with water from the sink faucet. She took shaving foam from her equipment box, and shook the can before pressing the top of the can. White, lemonade-scented foam rose in her palm. After lifting her left armpit, she rubbed the shaving foam on her ar
