Strangers with many memories

midnight or few hours past, everyone one was in bed . she saw her door wasn closed , means someone came in while she was asleep . she went out of her room to get some water to drink. getting back from the living room to get some water. she heard her mom and dad talking.

I felt helpless again, today when I heard my daughter crying and couldn do anything for her again. its been 12years moala , 12 years but I can do anything. when I entered her room today thinking thats I could help her calm down , it reminded me of the day I was carrying her little body bringing her home. I tried to get close to her many times but I couldn . the only thing, I could do was removing her shoes and cover her when she was asleep. I feel a shamed of being her father when I know I failed to protect her that night. I don even know what happened that night exactly except knowing she got rapped. her father said

her mother who has been quite the whole time turned to her husband. do you remember the first time she spoke after that night? do you remember her first word Marcos? that time she was 9 , she wasn able to talk for almost 2years . she said father please don let that man hurt me again. do you know what that means Marcos? she needed you as a father and now she still does. go , go find your old daughter Marcos . she enveloped him with a hug stroking his back.

she needs us moala, she needs parents. these 12years I haven seen her laughing or crying or anything. no feelings, no emotions she is just like a dead body. he added

she kept walking to her room and closed it to sleep but she didn , she kept on calling those memories till morning. her head was beating and beating. she didn go get her breakfast from the table, she didn even have lunch.

a knock on the door.

its mercy can I come in? she asked

what is it mercy? she answered.

it nothing Mercy just go to your room ; she told her facing the other wall to hide her sad face .

no am fine mercy just need to be alone; she said.

are you sick sis? she asked, you know I don like seeing you sad . you can tell me may be I can help. she added

just close the door when you get out, that would be kind.; Dana asked

she didn know what to say, she closed the door leaving the room. Dana didn get out of her room the whole day and no one even called her the whole because her phone was switched off.

woking up in the morning she decided to switch on her phone to look for something that will help her mood , maybe reading a book or anything else. she opened in the books and started reading. after like 10minutes. ”lei phone call incoming ”.
