Chapter Five

Life will never be the same again. Not when you know your brothers have gone...not when you realize that the people who you call 'parents' are not even related to you...not when everyone you know and trust are just PRETENDING- just being what they are not so they can make you believe them.

Imagine waking up in the morning and finding the bed beside you empty! That the bulky mass of your brother has just vanished before you woke up! Just like an year back. You don't know why and you can't think of an explanation! All you realize is that both your brothers are gone and that you are alone against the world .

And that is when you promise yourself that no matter what, you will find your brothers. That you will find out why they left you like this- where they went and how they went.

31st March : THREE YEARS AGO

Arthenius vanished from his room in the middle of the night.

No signs of resistance was seen. It was like he packed up and left on his own.

Azeus and I lost access to our rooms and were both told to share the same room.

31st March : TWO YEARS AGO

Azeus leaves home and I am blamed for not being aware of him leaving from the same room and getting up from the same bed.

I get totally  grounded and restricted from visiting anyone without 'mom' or 'dad' or some other adult accompanying me.

I become more determined than ever to find out where and why both of my brothers left - left without a word- left me ALONE against all these people.

31st March: ONE YEAR AGO

I left the house in broad daylight. I didn't leave like my brothers did- sneak out in the middle of the night. Had I left like that,no one would have cared; AND I DIDN'T WANT THAT - NO- I WANTED THEM TO REMEMBER ME AND THE COMMOTION THAT I CAUSED BEFORE LEAVING. I wanted them to understand that even if they suppress me or let me be nothing as I like, what is within can never be overwritten. Oppression will NEVER work. I have always been what I am and will always remain so.

When Arthenius left , I and Azeus were there to care- to cry-to love- to miss.

When Azeus left , I was there to care- to cry-to love- to miss.

But I knew that when I leave, no one was gonna care. So I made sure that they knew why I was leaving. I made sure that those people who claimed to be our "PARENTS" realized why I felt we siblings had left - why I felt Tenis and Aze might have left. I made them realize it in such a way that it leaves a horrible scar in their minds.
