Chapter 14

According to her memory, before they took her to the Asylum, she attended her parents burial ceremony and she remembered where and the place they buried her parents because while the police drove her to the Asylum, she remembered that she looked at the sign that showed the name of the burial sight "Parrish Burial Ground" and that's where she stood at, right now.

She panted because she had been running to this place and her fragile state made her look like she was about to pass out. Going in she walked around looking for her family's grave and after minutes of checking she found it. Her parents and brothers grave close to one another. Sitting in front of her mom grave, she smiled and rubbed her mothers name "I missed you so much" "You and papa" she said stretching her arms to touch her fathers grave stone "I missed you so much" she stated "My life hasn't been that good and it wasn't. I live in an asylum. I've been living there for the past 8 years now" "I live there because I'm crazy. You know the man that killed you guys and big brother, he touched me in ways. He r.. ra..... raped me" Claire stuttered as she sob "And I can't get the event from my mind and when he killed you, dad and big brother right in front me" she said as she cried out loud and use her hands to wipe her tears and running nose as her tears worsen "I wish you were here big brother" she said as she crawled to her big brother grave and knelt before it and touched the stone "I missed you. You promised We'll be together forever and believed. Why did you leave me? I wanted to stay by your side forever. You were my best friend. My big brother. My idol. My sunshine" she shouted remembering all her event with her brother "You shouldn't have left me. You shouldn't have left" she said as she put her hands on the ground and start digging "Come back. Come back. You can't just leave me. You can't. I love you so much big brother. You... You.. You.. Big brother"  she shouted to the heavens as tears fell from her eyes heavily and then she felt a tap on her shoulders and she flinched and her tears stop. Turning around, she came face to face to the man that raped her and killed her family but in reality it was just a old man who came to visit his wife grave and just happen to stumble upon Claire crying her eyes out and shouting to the heavens "Calm down" the old man said and Claire pushed the man away from her and she ran away from the burial sight screaming "Stay away from me". The old man looked at her with pity and sighed and walked to his wife grave and kneel down and prayed shortly "That girl looked lost. Held her Mary" the old man said.

      One week past and Claire was still lost in the streets and giving Samuel one hell of a headache. He and his coworkers had informed the police about Claire and they searched but couldn't find her. It was like she was there and she wasn't. It was like she was expecting them to search there and when they reached there, she would disappear and laugh at there faces. They would looked tired and said that they couldn't find her. I mean come on. Are all crazy people this way when they get lost?  Samuel thought and looked at the door and saw Patrick walking towards him smiling and he remembered that Patrick was quite close to Claire and he gulped nervously "Hey Samuel" Patrick said as he approached Samuel who was sweating balls "H.. hey" Samuel stuttered "I'm back" "I can see that" Samuel said "So I was wondering. Why did the police just leave the building?  Did something happen? Or was someone extra crazy brought here today?" Patrick said raising his eyebrow looking at Samuel. Right now  Samuel was sweating like hell and he didn't know what to say until he figured that he should just tell Patrick the truth "Patrick listen" Samuel said seriously and Patrick seeing that he was serious, he looked at him and nodded for him to continue "Claire's missing".

"Claire's missing." that word rang in his head until it ding "Say what?" he asked wanted to make sure he heard Samuel right "Claire's missing" Samuel repeated " What do you mean she's missing?"How the fuck did that happen?" Patrick stated calmly but anger was evident in his voice. And Samuel explained what happen and by the time he was done Patrick was fuming "Why would you let her do that?  What were you thinking?" He shouted angrily drawing the attention of people around "Look Patrick keep your voice down" Samuel said softly "I don't want to keep my voice down!!" he shouted "You shouldn't have let her do that. Don't you see the way she behaves?  She's too scared!!  She always flinch whenever I touch her and you think it would be a good idea for her to bath, knowing that she would have to pull the only thing making her little sane from her eyes?" Patrick shouted and Samuel looked like he was about to cry "I'm sorry" "You shouldn't be telling me sorry!!  Imagine how she would be in the streets right now?  Running from every little noise that she hears" As Patrick says that,Claire was seen running as she heard someone kick a can "Running from everyone trying to help her" Patrick said "Hey what you doing here" a woman said as she see Claire sitting  at the ally way near the trash can and as Claire saw the woman she ran "Stay away" Claire screamed as she ran deeper into the ally. "And I hope someone hasn't done anything vile to her" Patrick said and right now Samuel was crying looking at the floor "When I find her, apologize to her. Not me" Patrick said and walked towards the door.

      "Welcome home dear" Patrick mom, Lisa, said as she saw her son walking to upstairs and when she saw that he didn't greet her back she called out to him "Patrick?" But he didn't turn back to her, he just kept going "Wonder what's wrong with him?" Peter asked appearing from behind Lisa which shocked her "What the hell, Peter?" She screamed and punched him to the wall making his finger and toes to twitch in pain and he groan as he fell with a thud to the ground. "Serve you right" Lisa said looking at her husband who was bleeding through his nose twitching and groaning.

      Patrick, as he entered into his room, he locked it and went to his bed and fell face flat into it and turn his face to his right side and sigh "Claire" he said softly and Claire raised het head when she heard someone called her name and she turned looks looking to her right, left and back and saw no one there as she was seen sitting at the entrance of an abandoned house "Who was that?" She asked herself softly and she shook her head "Its probably nothing". Patrick turned and turned and turned  until he sat up and looked at his door "Claire where are you?" he asked and close his eyes. Claire heard the voice and but this time, it asked her where she was "What is this?  What's going on?" She asked herself and looked around. People walking looked at her and they looked at her with pity because they knew she was crazy and people who didn't want the crazy person to talk or touch them,would walk fast when walking in front of her. "Who's there?" she asked standing up and looking around but she saw no one and she walk down the stairs and turned right and walked knowing that that's the direction of her parents and brother burial ground.

    Patrick got of from his bed and head to his bathroom to take a cool shower. He didn't have the chance to take a shower when he got home because he was dying to see Claire and tell her about his trip and everything thing else but when he got there, Samuel just had to tell him that Claire was missing. She was missing. Sighing he step into the cold shower and sigh as the dirt leave his body.
    After wearing his clothe, he step out from his room and walked into the kitchen with his family,except Gerald who was out,peeping through the kitchen door looking at him as he made his peanut butter sandwich with a sad face "Why is he looking so sad?" Tory whispered to her parents "I don't know" Lisa answered "I don't know either" Peter answered as he saw that his daughter was looking at her and they didn't know that they were whispering loud and Patrick could hear them and his eyebrow was twitching in annoyance "I CAN HEAR YOU!" Patrick shouted looking at his family and they all fell to the floor with an arrow with a sign 'Been caught' pointing at them "We weren't peeping" Tory smiled looking at her brother "Yeah yeah" Peter and Lisa nodded innocently "Whatever" Patrick said rolling his eyes putting his sandwich in his mouth and pushed the door open and walked out leaving his family staring at the place he was standing a while ago.

    "Going somewhere, young master?" Albert asked as he saw his master coming from the stairs wearing a black shirt and white trouser and black sandals "Yeah" Patrick said as he walked pass Albert "Tell mom I went out. That I'll be back any time I feel like it" Patrick said as he step out of his house and stepping out to the dark with the light illuminating his compound. And he as step through the main gate of his house, he put his headset to his ears and played "Moonlight" by XXXTENSION. And as he walked, he sang to the song softly.  When he was tired he pulled it from his ear and set it between his neck and put his phone in his pocket. He whistled as he walked towards a ice cream shop. Stepping in, he walked to the counter and ordered for a strawberry ice cream. He walked out of the store licking his ice cream and as soon as he step out,someone bumped into him and his ice cream fell to the floor and he groan and looked at the person who was on the floor looking at him with scared eyes. Looking at the person, he took the appearance. The person had blond hair, looked extremely skinny and was wearing white like those asylum people and looking into the persons eyes, he noticed that the girl had blue eyes. Looking deeper into those blue eyes, image of Claire blue eyes when she was little came to his mind and he remembered that Claire was skinny and wore white. Always wear white and as he was about call her name, she stood up and ran away. It took a few seconds before Patrick realized what just happened and he ran after her "Claire!!" he called out as he ran pursuing Claire.
