Chapter 20
Now everything is starting to read. Very different from before. When everything started to come to mind, a memory came to mind that had always made me curious. In the blink of an eye I immediately tried to catch him. It turns out it was all just in vain. I've been trying for a long time and apparently I haven't gotten any results. Not knowing what else to say to return it all, it feels like I almost lost myself. When my curiosity arose brutally, I couldn't hold it in anymore. That's why right now I'm standing right in front of the head nurse's room. My mind only goes to one thing. All for the sake of truth. While I pretended to look calm with all the things that had been bothering me, I felt that there were many things that made me uncomfortable so far. Not only that, the shadow that had been echoing and looking so vague, seemed to want to catch me and I was overwhelmed by it. I felt like I couldn't escape properly. There are many things that make me even more surprised, even now I'm sure that there is actually something hidden behind this door. When I got up the courage and knocked on this door, not long after that I opened the door and strangely the head nurse who was usually in this room was not there now. I thought maybe he was busy. Instantly my hands became sweaty. As if I felt a little scared even though right now I was trying to look braver than usual. Once again I wanted to know why only certain people were called and strangely none of them ever came back and neither did Liona. I felt increasingly restless and my footsteps felt heavier. I kept repeating my thoughts and hoping it would be okay. When I entered this room, suddenly my eyes fell on a piece of paper lying on the table. I tried to get closer and when I noticed it was written something strange.
'What's that?' I muttered to myself.
Today I'm just like a criminal trying to steal things from the target. At first glance I felt like someone was following me and when I turned around, it turned out there was no one here but myself. Pretty bad start for me. Not long after, I looked around this room and after I looked again, this was just an ordinary room and there was nothing suspicious at all. Again, the contents of my head always lead to things that are quite worrying. I thought maybe I could find the answer to all these things that were bothering me. With full confidence I tried to look for it.
"What are you doing here?" Said someone from behind. A familiar voice to my ears. As soon as I turned around it turned out it was true.
"Oh, head nurse."
"I never called you. Why are you in my room? Don't just come in here if you haven't called. This time I forgive you. So go."
"Sorry for entering this room without permission. However, there are several things I want to report."
"What?"
"I want to know where Liona is. Maybe my wish is too impossible. It's just that I want to know how my friend is doing."
"Is that all you wanted to report Isabella?"
"That's all right."
I don't understand. From the expression on the head nurse's face, something seemed strange. I also don't know why now that I, who was previously full of self-confidence, is slowly starting to crumble and it's as if I'm going to fall now. Suddenly my eyes felt sore and I almost cried. This is indeed embarrassing. However, those eyes were a look that showed something threatening. I've never seen this before apart from movies. I slowly tried to calm myself while muttering to myself that this would be fine and there was no need to worry. But this feeling can't lie. I'm ready if I get punished.
"Now. You just go back to your room. There's no point in asking about that child."
"What? Why do you say that?"
Right now my heart continues to beat as if I feel like this is the last time I will experience something as surprising as this. Since I just realized one very important thing, I also started to feel that there was something wrong with this conversation. The curiosity inside me continued to stir until I couldn't speak. Just a look says it all. It doesn't stop there, I also hope for myself this time to believe that maybe what has been bothering me all this time is actually wrong. At that time, I got annoyed with myself and that is what is happening now. Right in front of me, I was really annoyed and there was always something that made me drag myself into this abyss of despair. As soon as I looked at the head nurse and then I felt there was a little something that made me feel surprised. At the same time, I also became increasingly curious about the reasons behind them all this time. In all my life here I have never heard anything quite strange, nothing like that. However, when I overheard what those people were saying, I became even more convinced that something was wrong in this place. After the nurses left me here, I became increasingly convinced that they were hiding something. It doesn't matter how I smelled it and now I feel like I've lost. There's nothing I can see. Everything is just closed by the door. That's what I see now. My eyes are also getting more and more tired looking at all this, which in the end is always like this. Nothing has changed. I slowly walked away from the place. In my heart I still felt very annoyed because it wasn't what I had intended before.
"Where have you been?" Ella asked me in a tone that seemed a little worried about me.
"Ah, I just came from the music venue."
"So far?"
"Correct."
"What were you doing there for so long?"
"Just playing the piano and listening to other songs. Why?"
"That's strange. You don't usually go there. Don't you hate that place?"
"That was a long time ago. I don't think so now."
"Is it true?"
"Yes of course."
"To be honest there are a lot of things I want to talk to you about."
"What do you want to talk about?"
"Maybe this is a little unreasonable. But I feel like there's something strange about everyone."
"What do you mean by strange?"
"It's very difficult to explain. But I saw for myself that the situation looked like something was wrong. They also seemed to be afraid of something. And what's strangest is why no one wants to tell me?"
"Wait, don't tell me this is about the people in this foundation?"
"That's right. All the students in this orphanage. Are they crazy?"
"I don't understand what you mean by going crazy, what are they doing?"
"Their behavior is quite strange. It's as if they're losing their memory and they don't connect when they talk to them. What's even stranger is that they feel traumatized."
"Hah?"
"You're confused? Of course. So am I. This is really crazy. I still can't believe my eyes."
Even though I myself doubted what Ella said, when I heard the words that came out of Ella's mouth, I felt even more convinced that something was wrong. I also asked myself and there was something strange. Not long after, there was a knocking sound from behind the door. I was immediately shocked and so was Ella. We both looked at each other and kept eye contact to open the door. I'm still sitting and like I don't want to do it. Ella is the same. We continued to make eye contact until finally I gave in and opened the door. As soon as I opened the door, it turned out there was someone asking us to leave immediately.
"You guys hurry to the dining room. Everyone is waiting."
"Ah, okay. Wait a moment, we'll come there after tidying up some books."
"Okay," said the person and then left.
"Who?" Ella asked.
"House leader."
"Ah, damn. I thought it was the nurse."
"You're right. I also thought earlier that it might be a nurse. That's why I was a little worried."
"You made a mistake again?"
"No. It's not like that."
"So what?"
"I keep asking a lot of strange questions. That's all I do."
"Asking strange things?"
"Yes. It's about Liona."
"Jeez. What did I think, it turns out you still keep bringing that up."
"Of course I'm curious."
"I understand what you're saying. I also sometimes have a lot on my mind and always wonder in my head what happened to the people who were summoned? Are they okay? Where are they now? All that always comes to my mind."
"So you also think the same thing?"
"Of course. How could it not be. Do you think I'm a bad person?"
"I never thought you were evil. It's just that I was a little surprised that I wasn't the only one who felt surprised."
"Shall we investigate?"
"Huh? You want us to do something like that?"
"Yeah. It can't be helped, I'm also curious why every time a couple of families come here bringing one of us but there's never any news about their life after successfully adopting one of us? Isn't that quite strange?"
"You're right. I didn't have time to think that way."
When Ella said what she had been holding back in her heart, I felt a little guilty. I think this kid doesn't care about everything that happened so far. Turns out I thought it was evil. This time I also agree with Ella's words. There's only one way to find out all this. That is by investigating to the root. But, all of that might not be easy. From everything I've seen, I don't really know about a family coming in here and taking one of us. What he means is one of the children in this orphanage. When there they come and then chat with the nurse. Most likely they will take the people here. I don't know why I always feel bad. Like there's something wrong. At the same time, I was surprised and continued to be curious until I refrained from looking for information. When the opportunity arises, I am always careless and end up wasting it. But now I have a friend who apparently has the same thoughts. I think now is the time.Download Novelah App
