CHAPTER ONE: Nightmare

PHUWIN POV

''Help! Somebody help!''  

''Phu, come on! We have to keep going!'' 

''But I can't run anymore!'' 

''We have to!'' 

''THERE THEY ARE!'' 

''Phuwin! We have to run! NOW!!'' 

''Woah!'' 

''PHU!'', ''You ok?'' 

''Oww, it hurts!'' 

''Your leg...it's bleeding,'' 

''THEY'RE HERE!''  

''Phu, get up, you have to keep running! I will distract them!'' 

''No!'' 

''You have to keep running na, you have to find Dad!'' 

''But...'' 

''Listen to me Phu, we have to split, you hurt your leg, they'll catch us if we run together, someone has to distract them,'' 

''But...what if you get caught?''  

''There is no time, Phu, we have to keep moving! Please go find Dad!'' 

''We've to go now! RUN PHU RUN!'' 

''GO! Don't look back!'' 

I kept running, but suddenly there was a loud gunshot and a scream! I look back and see the most traumatic event in my life.  

''GEM!!!'' 

''PHU! KEEP RUNNING!!! DON'T LOOK BACK!!''  

********

''GEM!'' I screamed and immediately woke up from my sleep.  

I'm gasping for air and drenched with sweat. It was a nightmare; it's been years since I had that nightmare. That was the last memory of my twins. I lost my twins when I was 10 years old and it's been 15 years since that traumatic event.   

I didn't expect to have that nightmare again. 

''Why now?''  I mumbled myself 

''PHUWIN!!!''

Suddenly, there was a loud banging from my bedroom door and a high-pitched annoying voice early in the morning. 

I groan as I walk towards the door and open it to see my roommate/best friend standing in front of my room with grinning on his pretty face. 

Why is he always this annoying early in the morning? If it wasn't because of that pretty face of him, I would probably punch him in the face for waking me up like that. 

''What?'' I said irritatedly

''Aww...why so grumpy early in the morning, my dude!'' he said, still with that grinning face, ''And, why are you sweating like that? Did you have exercise even in your dream?'' 

''Shut up, Satang, you're annoying,'' I said as I walked back to my bed

''Come on, Phu, get ready! Aren't you going to be late on your first day at your new department?'' Satang said as he tossed me my towel

I groaned.

''Seriously, Phu, why are you suddenly requesting to be transferred to that department? Do you even know how crazy that department is, they're super elite but also there are a bunch of weird people in there,'' Satang continued
