Young and asleep, oblivious to the frustrations yet to come their way. I noticed then386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1TtCuRwKV
that some of them had tubes going into their bodies through all sorts of possible ways.386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZdcQZfwnq
My scared mouth could not help itself this time, and so a loud gasp inevitably made386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡng6kMdHzjZ
itself heard -my voice sounded nothing like the thoughts in my head- and then I heard386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7wROpQdVm
someone coming.386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHpAUDpaDp
I was scared. Fear is, after all, the first emotion taught to any living thing.386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99oaFZZlO2
I did not have to keep on guessing for long, however, as through the corner of my386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sBD30Xdla
struggling eye, I was able to appreciate him somewhat. I uttered something in response386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhz2PwT2wP5
to being so scared, though I was unable to understand it myself at the time. Then I felt386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvyCPr3qsI
a pair of trembling fingers gently caressing my face and my eyelids. Those wrinkled386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbIxBvnbjl
hands then proceeded to go all over my naked body: checking, poking, searching.386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodL99QeBjy
Examining.386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnymtdf8tz
My eyes could not do much else but wander aimlessly while that was all taking386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLaeCV85IY
place; trying to divert my attention of what could be going on. I then noticed some386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKx6dJiCltt
luteous markings on some of those darkened walls - although I was unable to read386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtUjyJYnnH
them, they still held some interest over me, if only momentarily. My eyes decided386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW589xaeQjR
then to continue their penurious tour only to be halted again by one of those beds.386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdokerNie3Q
Someone was twitching under a few heavy white blankets, someone even smaller than386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTpau4PsFV
me I would say, twitching and complaining; and right before my mouth could exclaim386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mrymX60Jb
a word, my face was turned away from it.386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lemclLYdF
A warm and trembling hand was now making me stare at an even older face: one386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6IMVHiGhu
whose wrinkles easily drew an expression of worry. I started to hear his voice, hoarse,386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyG3Vrwrql
masculine, and old; completely the opposite of what mine had previously sounded like.386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20nhk4NqFb
I could tell he was urgently trying to tell me something but his words, just like my very386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCm7XXM2pP
own, were no more than indistinguishable sounds to me. Gently his trembling fingers386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6nox0ecyK
began rubbing around my eyes as if he knew they were hurting, and sure enough after386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4Vdz56IpC
a while, any remaining blurriness still holding onto the corners of my sight was gone.386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLZvKIP8dV
Immediately after, and as fast as he could, he began removing all the restraints tying386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCHmABoq93
me to that bed, and after that was done, he helped me to sit.386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsczs5S8Wuj
He had a big smile on his face as if he were so proud of me, and although I could not386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MqHUz49Vh
understand the sounds coming from between his lips, his eyes could easily tell me as386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzH9gNzWRhY
much. More than once I signalled him that I could not understand him, but no matter386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIoY19pM4AQ
how many times I would nod my head he still would not stop.386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIlxi5nUn0
His mouth kept moving as if my ears could make all sense out of them. He tried and386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRXf8whZ2B
tried and tried until he made me smile for the first time, shyly at first but eventually386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7svTpk8Xx
he even managed to steal my first giggle. He smiled back. I will never forget my386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4aznq5U03
first pleasant exchange with another, nor will I forget that loud sound that came to386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOooBeLw1mo
interrupt it.386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jHOYaY5al
A big shriek, the sound of metal being dragged across more metal; it interrupted386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmghb6oDtiR
us and made him look away from me. That older face turned away from me so fast,386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOL3e2meZf
towards that door opening, and the younger man that proceeded to walk through386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO623a05rtK
it. They began to hastily exchange sounds between them and the more they did,386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZxznjRFww
incredibly, the easier it became for me to understand what they were saying.386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Li4oSi23I
A few short words at first... “Sir... you... certain?” The new man asked.386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbA3zRkVUxs
“It... the... way.” The older man replied, and it quickly became apparent he was in386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFhYP0JFIu
charge no matter how their words were being exchanged.386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyy5pY3gnc
“But... ...dangerous game... ...!” The young man said before storming off. The older386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32evrjxUTN
one tried to follow him, but he stopped at the door. He whispered something and even386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4azvP5mM1
though I could not understand it, I knew it to be sad.386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOrMyBiVSx
“Did you ... any ... that?” He asked as he made his way towards me, “You did... you?”386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgUMsBuccy
“Yes...”386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0gKMkQDs0
That reply impressed no one else more than it did me.386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7LG4lAy1D
The way I bounced in surprise almost threw me out of that bed.386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmrjZyrGgW
“Easy there.” He held me gently, “It will only get easier for you by the moment.”386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3W6rVs1A9l
“Easier?” I had to inquire, “What?”386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuWaqdZSGU
“Everyt... will.” His eyes immediately adopted a more serious look, and the rest of386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9Zh2PHVg3
his face followed, “But first... must... you... of here.”
