Splitting Words
Shinda gently closed his eyes before opening them; he realized he was already shouting at his wife, and she was doing nothing wrong to him, only caring about his condition.He then gradually stood from the bed. He took a deep breath again, and just as he was about to talk, the door gently pushed open and a sharp little voice called out, "Shinda.""Daddy, I'm scared..."Shinda, realizing it was his daughter, smirked, then gently stood from the bed and stretched his hands for her to come."Come over here, my little angel."The moment Shinda said those words, his daughter gently walked toward him, her body still shivering. It being day now, but the trauma of what had happened never left her mind; she was still traumatized by the incident.His hands gently caressed her hair as he spoke gently, "My beloved daughter, sorry for what had happened, but believe me, Daddy will always be here for you."As Shinda spoke, his daughter tried her best to forge a smile from her lips, but within that sm
Who It Could Be
The door gently opened, and Shinda’s wife was standing in front of it. Her face was mixed with confusion and desperation; she was too stunned to ever imagine what had happened the other day, and now her husband was acting weird. Not only that, he wasn't even around her, and he acted so busy lately."I'm so very confused right now. Why the hell is he looking so stressed? And even with that, he doesn't want me to take him to the hospital. The stress he's feeling right now, I'm sure it isn't from just his injuries; he must be hiding something from me."These words sounded in her mind. She was standing at the front of the bedroom, and Shinda was on the bed, his wrist wrapped with a bandage. His wife had been the one taking care of his injuries over the days, and she had thought of calling the doctor, but Shinda refused, stating that doing so would worsen things. With this, she understood, aligning with the thought of what had happened the other day, when he was almost killed.Within the m
Maybe Toyed With
Shinda walked back through the terminal, each step a heavy reminder of his own mortality. The adrenaline that had carried him through the streets was fading, replaced by a cold, throbbing ache in his wrist. He found his wife and daughter tucked away in a small security office, flanked by two nervous-looking guards. When she saw him, she let out a choked sob and rushed to him, her eyes immediately falling on the blood-soaked fabric wrapped around his arm."Shinda! Oh my God, your arm," she cried, her hands hovering over the wound as if she were afraid to touch him and break whatever spell was keeping him upright. "We have to go. The police, they want to talk to us, but you need a doctor. We’re going to the hospital right now."Shinda shook his head, his face a mask of weary stone. "No. No hospital.""What do you mean 'no hospital'?" she pushed back, her voice rising in a mix of fear and frustration. "You’ve been shot! That bullet went through you, Shinda! You’re losing blood.""I’ll be
The Hunter Was Hunted
Shinda’s breath came in ragged, shallow hitches. The scent of ozone and copper—blood and spent gunpowder—clung to the humid airport air. He pressed his back against the cold concrete pillar, his heart hammering against his ribs like a trapped bird. Every time he shifted even an inch, a bullet would kiss the concrete, sending a spray of stone dust into his hair."Stay down!" he stared at his wife his gaze shaking. She was huddled in a ball, her arms wrapped so tightly around their daughter that the girl’s face was buried in her mother’s chest.Shinda’s eyes scanned the rafters, the glass walkways, and the distant shadows of the parking garage. He was a man who lived in the dark, a professional who knew every trick in the book, yet this shooter was playing him like a beginner. The shots weren't coming from where they should. The angles were impossible.Suddenly, a flash of light caught his eye—a reflection from a scope high up in the ventilation ducts near the north terminal."There," h
Lock In Gaze
He gazed at the man, and on the man's face was a dark sneer, one Shinda couldn't identify—if he was being toyed with for real, or if it was just a coincidence. Everything happened so planned and arranged, as though they had already predicted his day.In not less than a second Shinda bolted from the ground; he ran like a madman into the airport, directly to the place where he suspected his wife should be because, ideally, that was where passengers take a break, maybe if they were waiting for someone.On reaching there, he couldn't find any of them, neither his wife nor his daughter; his heart began to beat extremely fast.He picked up his phone and dialed the number. At the first try the line wasn't going through; he panicked even more, but at the second try the line went through, so he spoke into the phone quickly, "Where are you? Are you fine?""What do you mean? You've been keeping us waiting for another hour and hell yes, now I'm extremely mad at you," his wife raged from the other
Almost In The Game
Shinda’s fists clenched. He wished he could stop the car at this instant, or perhaps rush to the airport, or call to confirm if his wife and daughter are truly fine, but he couldn’t. He was just so lost in his thoughts that everything felt like he was hallucinating.“You don’t have to panic, and I know you are thinking of if you should kill me here or not. Anyways, I’m not here to fight you, and if you really want to get to the airport in time to save your family, you have to make me live so I can take you there. If you kill me here, this car will detonate and we’re both gonna die,” the man explained, sneering like a devil.He then continued. “My body is connected to a pressure detector detonator, whereby once my heart stops beating, it will activate the boom. So which do you choose? Do you want to save your family, or want to die alongside me?”The man’s eyes were staring at the upper mirror above his aura as he gazed at Shinda from the back seat. Shinda didn’t know what to do, and h
