Chapter 1.8.: The day We get to know ourselves

When my eyes open, I was laying in a bed, I was wearing some kind of a long blue patient gown. It was very light and somewhat feels oversized for me. It was very loose. I was having a sever pain in neck while breathing or moving my throat. I could feel that something was inside my throat. I felt like coughing but the pain I was having forced me to stop it. When I tried to move my neck, I felt something around my neck, something soft and big was warped around my whole neck, I couldn't see it sonic tried to feel it with my hands. I couldn't even move my neck even a little bit, when I tried again I again felt pain a very severe pain. When I look around myself moving my shoulders I could see I was in some kind of a room, that room was strange, painted white and shining all around, the room was even cold, the temperature was really low there. There were many metallic bed in that room just like the one on which I was laying. All of them were empty except mine and the one seven eight bed apart from mine. On that bed someone was laying silently without even moving a little bit. When I looked at that bed, I felt something strange and I thought of going there and taking a look. Just when I was about to go out of my almost cold metallic bed, I heard someone's footsteps and voices coming outside from the room. Unconsciously I put my body down and laid back on that metallic cold bed again.

"What is this, first they said they want the kids' body and now they're saying they don't want."

I heard a man's voice.

"Cheh, the poor kids, how can someone be this cruel? Such a cruel man."

This time it was a woman voice which replied.

"According to the news, the kids were adopted. And you know the guy who did that actually adopted them a few years back?"

"What? No I didn't knew that. You know I don't like listening or reading those boring things."

"Hey newspapers or news channels are...."

"Hey you know I got that video even before you see that on your news."

"What video?"

"You know the video they are showing on news all the day even now, the one in which that man was caught stabbing these kids. That video went viral that night."

"Oh… I still think those kind of men are really scums….."

"Hey don't say that, didn't you see he was forced by those criminal for that. He was even crying after stabbing these kids and I even heard that in the end he ..."

"So what? It doesn't change anything. He was just a coward, killing two young kids and then killing himself. If he had to kill himself in the end, he should not have killed these kids, he had adopted them, they were not even his own kids."

"Hey don't say that, you don't know, you are new here so let me tell me something.

Few years back one of these kids, the younger one was admitted here, he was beaten by someone very badly, he had black and red marks and bleeding cuts all over his body as well as severe internal bleeding and injuries.

That time I heard someone talking that he was beaten like that by the orphanage care takers.

And the Sebastian guy you are cursing right now was the one who use to come and see him everyday. I heard he even took him to his house after he got discharged from here."

When I heard this, I was shaken slightly, cause I was sure they were taking about Sammy, Sammy was also in the hospital, I got happy. I thought I could search for him and meet him after they leave.

"Something like that happened? No wait, I'm sure he was trying to suck up to his higher ups. If not then he must have been ordered by his higher ups to take care of that kid."

"Why you women's are always so suspicious, I am sure he felt pity on that kid and took him. Hey you had not seen those injuries that this kid had, even a heartless person would have felt pity and sorry for this kid on seeing those injuries on him."

"Fine.. then explain me why he killed these kids? You say he's a good guy then he shouldn't had killed these kids, didn't he?"

"Wait I'll send you that video and in that see it yourself, you could hear voices of other people. There were even voices of someone crying and someone laughing like a maniac when the kids were stabbed. I am sure he was forced for that."

"Oh yeah I remember, they were saying on news that his wife and his son were also present there when that happened. Anyway I will never forgive that guy. Even if you tell me he was the guy with thousands of good qualities, for me he would always remain a scum who killed those little kids whom he adopted and a coward who killed himself."

"By the way, do you know anything on why he killed himself?"

"Yeah.. I heard on news that….."

"Wait..… how about we argue about this later, right now we need to take two bodies to mortuary."

Those two people were right next to me and most probably talking about taking me and someone else to somewhere I guess.

"Oh yeah, at first when those people said they wanted the bodies, we didn't need to care but now when they had said they don't want the bodies, we have to hurry or the organs will start decaying.

Poor kids… even after they died, no one is willing to take them….

… ok…we have to move quickly now and take these bodies to the mortuary or….."

"Hey hey, I didn't mean that we need to rush it this much, I don't think taking his organs and putting them in those boxes will take much of a time. There is no need to rush this much."

When I heard 'taking organs', my body trembled and I suddenly opened my eyes, fear was written all over my body.

""AAAAAAAAAAAAHHH…..""
