Character: Daphne Aletheia Strauss
I felt so alone.
I can’t do anything without Reina. It’s not that I can’t live without her. It’s just that I can’t move on until I know she’s safe. I’ve known her for years. She has never been missing my entire life without her telling the reason for her absence.
Again, tears ran down my pale face.
It might be so exaggerated for me to react like this. I am not this dramatic and emotional. It’s just that there is a very special bond between Reina and me. We are so perfect for each other. I had many friends but not as well as Reina. She’s my ideal friend. If she’d be gone, I don’t know where to find anyone like her.
A knock disturbed my endless thoughts of Reina’s absence. I wiped my tears and went down. Upon opening the door, mixed emotions filled my agitated mind.
Reina!
I ran towards her and hugged her like I haven’t seen her for years. Suddenly, intense anxiousness filled my entire being. I looked at her. Tears rushed into my face. What the hell happened to you, Reina?! I thought. The words are trapped in my mind. I can’t speak due to the sudden shock I felt.
She was filled with dried blood. Her left eye was surrounded by a black bruise. Her lips were bleeding, maybe due to a tough punch. She wore the same clothes she had on 3 days ago. Her appearance showed the weakness her body experienced. I was terrified. Suddenly, she looked at my eyes and fainted.
For a few minutes, I just stood as Reina was unconscious in front of me.
I carried her and laid her on the sofa. I called the maid to clean her wounds and change her blood-soaked clothes.
What happened to her? Who did this to her?! I was both angered and scared. I will find the person who did this to you, Reina. I will face my fear and look for that person. I will never let anything dreadful happen to you again. I’m sorry.
Now, I wait for her consciousness to be back. I will wait for your awaking, Reina. I must hear the story of the cause of your pain. I must. Then, I will have my revenge. I promise.
