Chapter(3):my name part 1
At a certain school there was a dodgeball class.
There were two teams playing. The first team was throwing balls towards the second team, and the second team was trying to evade and shoot towards the first team.
Andrew was playing in the second team and shooting balls at some of the players in the first team, but most of them were dribbling. While he was playing, he noticed from afar a girl standing frozen in place as if she was in shock or deeply thinking about something.
He was watching her with confusion and strangeness. But, as he watched her, something happened.
The ball hit the girl's head and she fell to the ground. She was surprised by what was happening.
"Emma out!" The referee shouted as he blew his whistle at her and pointed outside.
Emma walked away and sat down on the side of the court, looking down hesitantly.
"What's wrong with her?" asked one of the players on her team.
"I don't know man, maybe it has something to do with Jessica and Sarah," another player spoke up.
"It doesn't matter, let's focus on playing," said another player.
"Look, Andrew, how your sister is acting so funny," said his friend Jack, pointing at. her."Don't you think she's acting strange?"
"Yes, she's been acting weird since yesterday."
"since yesterday?" Jack asked, raising an eyebrow. "Weird? Isn't that her normal behavior?"
"No, how to put it, it was…"
.....
**flash back**
When Andrew got on the bus he didn't see his sister Emma, which was strange.
"Maybe I got on another bus," Andrew thought.
When Andrew got on the bus, three of his friends, Jack, Nathan, and Chloe, sat down
"Man, if you had shot well, we would have won the soccer match!" Jack complained to Nathan
"You should have passed it to me, I was close to you and there was no one surrounding me, if only you had passed it to me instead of trying to impress Jessica!" Nathan continued
"Shut up! I didn't know she wasn't here!" Jack spoke
"This is why Chloe is staying away from you."
"What did I just say, repeat it if you dare!" Jack spoke angrily
" I'll do it again whenever I want," Nathan spoke confidently
"You bast■■d!" Jack shouted with a smile as he played banter with Nathan
"Hey! Calm down, kids!" Chloe, who was sitting in front, said, "Don't you see me editing a video of myself on ■■■■"
"Yes, mom," Jack and Nathan both spoke
"Boys, you never grow up."
While they were talking, Andrew was peeking toward the back seats of the bus, looking for Emma. He noticed that she was not sitting in her usual place. He was feeling anxious, but when he remembered flashes of the past, his thinking changed towards her and he ignored this feeling.
"Andrew?Andreeewww!" Jack spoke loudly
"Yes what?" Andrew answered hesitantly
"Dude? Are you okay?" Jack asked
"Yes, I'm fine. I was distracted thinking about something else. What's wrong?" Andrew answered
"We were wondering about Jessica and Sarah and you were the last to talk to them. Do you know where they went?" Jack answered
"Actually I don't know, the last thing I know is that I was going to the club when I met them, but they said they were busy with something," Andrew answered.
"Yeah, busy hitting your sister," Chloe continued coldly
"There What?!"Jack, Nathan, and Andrew all replied in shock
"Hey, did you know?" Andrew asked
"They just spoke to me via chat. They said they were going to teach Emma a lesson because of what she did, and apparently the teacher was there and suspended them for a week," Chloe answered.
"Man that's why Jessica wasn't here to see me!" Jack spoke
"That was good for you," Nathan continued
"Hey! Why did they do that?" Andrew asked slightly angrily
"Andrew, have you forgotten or should I remind you? She was the one who killed her father,"Chloe answered coldly, "Not to mention what she did in the cafeteria, this was expected of them."
"But honestly, he deserves what's happening to her."
When Chloe spoke, Andrew recalled some unpleasant memories. He remembered that he was in a supermarket and there were armed men, and there was blood and heavy gunfire in it.
When Andrew remembered those memories, he felt a slight dislike for Emma as he remembered the rest of those memories
...
When the bus stopped and he said goodbye to all his friends, they were staying somewhere else،and Andrew was going home.
When Andrew went home, he was greeted by his mother.
"Hi, honey. How was school today?" His mother name Elena asked with a warm smile.
"Good, mom. How was your day?"
"I'm fine, thanks. Where's your sister?" Mother asked
"I don't know, you should have gone home before me."
"Strange, I hope you're okay," the mother spoke.
"Yes, I will go to my room now," Andrew said. "Call me when dinner is ready."
"Sure, son. Get up."
"Don't worry about her, she probably went for a walk and will be back soon."
"I hope so"
But night had fallen and Emma had not yet returned home. This was the first time this had happened. My mother and I were worried because she usually didn't go anywhere without at least sending us a message.
"Dear, can you try to contact her? There is something I don't like going on here," the mother spoke anxiously
"Okay, I'll try to contact her," Andrew answered, also worried
Andrew decided to try to contact her, but received no response.
"Strange, maybe her phone ran out of battery"
"She won't go anywhere without a charged phone, especially at this time." The mother replied, "She is my daughter and I know her well."
"Do you know if something happened to her at school?" The mother asked
Andrew remembered what Chloe said at school and what happened between them and felt a little worried about whether he wanted to tell her, but while he was thinking about telling her the truth، but something happened.
"Emma, where have you been the whole time! Do you realize how much I worried about you? You never answered my calls or my messages. Where were you the whole time?" the mother shouted.
"Hey Emma what happened to your face! Tell me who did this to you!" His mother asked angrily
Emma was standing in front of the door. Her clothes were a little torn and covered in a little mud. There were some leaves on her body. Her head was down, and some bruises could be seen on her head and body.
She was standing there, breathing very hard, as if she was running a marathon. When both Andrew and Elena looked at Emma, they felt a little heartbroken. She was silent... to a frightening degree...
"Emma? Are you okay?" his mother asked worriedly...
"Can I go to my room?" Emma asked
"What?...No! You can't go to your room before you tell me who did this!" my mother screamed.
Emma's mother was worried about Emma's actions, but what called her most was her voice. Her voice was Emma's natural voice, but she felt something else, she felt something bad, really bad.
"Suddenly, Emma moved towards the front where her room was, but her mother grabbed her by the shoulder and screamed."
"Stop it, Emma, tell me what's wrong with you..."
"Can I go to my room?" Emma asked in a robotic voice...
"Emma"... her mother asked fearfully
"I'm sorry, mom. I've had a ba_ a hard day. I'm going to my room. There are some things I need to do." Emma spoke softly.
Emma moved towards her room and Andrew was standing in front of her and trying to say something, but before he could start speaking, Emma ignored him and walked over and pushed his shoulder.
"what are you!...?"
Andrew saw an expression he had never seen in his sister in his entire life. He saw pure terror in her expression, something he had never seen before. He felt fear towards his sister for the first time in his life.
Andrew continued to look at Emma until she went into her room and closed the door to her room, leaving Andrew lost in thought about what he saw, while his mother approached and asked him about what happened at school.
...
***Flash back***
"She's been acting strange ever since she came home," Andrew said
"Maybe because of Jessica and Sarah's bullying," Jack answered indifferently
"No, it's more than that, as if...Emma saw something terrifying," Andrew spoke
"If you're worried why don't you just ask her," Jack asked
"We don't get along well, she always ignores me, I don't think she wants to talk to me," Andrew answered
Well, I think you should leave her alone. She will be back to normal after a few days. Like me, I was afraid of my dolls when I watched a horror movie. After some time passed, my fear completely disappeared." Andrew spoke confidently
"All you have to do is leave some time for her and as days pass, she will return to how she was, buddy."
"I hope so," Andrew replied
While Andrew and Jack were talking, Emma went to the bathroom to clean her face
When she opened the tap and washed her face, she looked at the woman and felt something strange on her neck. She looked carefully at the woman and saw a small scar on her neck.
The moment she saw the scar on her neck, she remembered...she remembered everything, especially that smiling face
Ah..ah....ahhhhh!
