176 The Gunshot
Keisha
I couldn’t stop feeling anxious it felt more like something is about to happen and I can’t place my hand on what it is but I know that I feel so restless at the moment, I can’t continue to stay here, I need to stand up and find a way out, I was weak I need food, I need to bathe cause right now I’m even disgusted by my smell.
I tried to get up but I was too weak to stand up, I was still struggling when I heard the fumbling of keys outside the door, I acted like I was sleeping but was silently waiting for whoever it is to come in, the door opened and it turned out it was one of the guards, he came with a bucket of water for the shee to drink and a bowl of leftover rice, he walked to the sheep and dropped it in front of them,
He kicked me and walk over me like a slave, I winced silently in pain and watched as the guards left and locked the door afterward, I struggled and crawled towards the bowl of rice that was kept for the sheep to eat, I pulled the bowl of rice close as I began to devour the food with both hands, the sheep’s we’re all staring at me, I was surprise they were not screaming at this point, they were just staring at me silently,
I managed to keep half of the rice for the sheep cause they all looked hungry, I was now feeling a little bit better at this point, I managed to stand up and took off the sackcloth that I was wearing, I took the bucket of water and began to wash my body, washing off all the stains and blood that stinks to my thighs, I washed my hair which was already smelling so bad,
Right now I can feel that I’m running out of time and someone might come in any moment from now, I picked the sackcloth and put them on, I couldn’t walk properly, I was limping as a result of sex torture and so many beatings I got from those wicked guards. I have bruises all over my body, I looked around searching for an escape, I can’t pass through the door cause the door is locked, the only thing I saw was holes that were guarded with an iron rod, a whole that served as a window for the sheep to receive air,
I limped around the walls searching for anything that can serve as an escape for me, I was touching the walls with my palm when suddenly I felt a wooden sensation, I halted on my step and touch the wall again and that’s when I discovered it was a wooden window but was covered in black paint so they won’t be discovered,
I opened the window immediately and the only thing I could see was bushes, I can only jump down from this place but the height difference is too much, I might break my leg or injure my head, but I have no choice I cannot continue to stay here, even if I have to die, I still need to live so I can send that heartless slave master to hell.
I heard incoming footsteps and I know it’s either I take this chance or wait for my death in this hell of a place, I closed my eyesContent bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
“Keisha, it’s now or never” I whispered to myself and jumped down from the place immediately, I was surprised when I didn’t break my leg or injure any part of my body like I expected,
“Get her, she’s running away!” I heard a scream and turned to see one of the guards pointing at me from the window, I took to my heels immediately, running with everything I have regardless of the way I was limping, I was determined to make it out alive, I need to be alive to have my revenge on their monster called master,
Right now many gunshots were sounding in the air, as I continued running through the bushes, many footsteps were chasing after me, I suddenly tripped and fell, I turned and saw they were approaching me with speed, I can’t go back to that hell anymore, I can tell I wouldn’t make it out alive if they ever catch me this time,
My leg was hurting like hell,
You can do this Keisha, you can…
I managed to stand up and continue running, and that’s when I saw a river, I began to run towards it immediately running towards the bridge, I was running with all my strength that I didn’t know there was a hill down until I looked in front of me and saw that there was a hill before me,
“Damn you bitch you stress us so much” One of the guards laughed at me
“Come to us bitch you don’t have a choice”
They were all laughing at me enjoying how they were haunting me,
I looked at the hill and turned to look at them
“I rather die than go with you guys”
I turned back to the hill and jump, but a gunshot sounded and the bullet pierced through my back right through my chest, I spit out blood from my mouth, as my body landed on the hill and began to tumble down, I slowly looked up and saw them watching me with smiles,
I’m sorry Tana
I closed my eyes as darkness took over.
