Suicide Bomber

Quianna's POV That early trip I've made to the medical facility, increases my will and determination to get through the bottom of this. I feel disgusting but I also feel like I am humiliated by my own self. I thought they will not show in front of anyone again, I thought their goal is to be hidden and continue operating in the dark, but this is just so insane, my mom's corpse was discovered in a usual place, where people kept on walking and passing by. Is this the big picture they are painting out? Is this what they wanted to see? I will prove them wrong, I'm not the innocent and gullible Quianna anymore, they just awakened the beast in me, they want to play hide and seek? Then I am gladly to accept being the seeker. "Yana, I already gave my report to them. The case is already closed." Aina said as soon as she came back. We're still in her office but Austin left as he need to write the case statement report. "Thank you, we need to fix this mess." I said to her, and she sat in front of me. "What are you thinking?" she asked, and I stared at her. "Please let my mom's body stay here, or anywhere that she cannot be seen or searched by anyone. I want to give her a proper funeral after this whole mess." I explained to her and she just lightly nod. "But where will you start investigating everything? Are you sure you'll not going to say this to Dylan?" Aina asked as she's very worried about me, I can definitely feel it. "No, I can just say it when everything is done. Besides, the message sounds like I should not trust him." I said to her. "Will you still believe in those?" "For now, we have no choice." We looked at the person who entered the office and it's Austin. "Did you already finish it?" I asked. "I let my junior do it, he should start doing it too." He plainly answered and crossed his legs. "I think you're just skipping your duties." Aina answered. "No, I am teaching him." Austin fight back. "No, you're just ignoring the process." Aina answered back. "Alright, enough both of you." I said and Aina just glared on him. *Phone vibrates* Austin and I looked each other as our phones began to vibrate at the same time. I grabbed my phone on the table and he got his from his pocket. "You must leave that place." I said upon reading the message aloud. "A suicide bomber will enter a medical facility." Austin read his. We both looked each other and shocked on what we heard, I automatically stood up when I realized that these messages would happen minutes after and if this facility would blow up, I need to save my mom's corpse. I run towards the cold fridge room where unidentified bodies where located, and I let Aina to open the door through her identification card. She scanned it and I saw Austin pulled a vacant stretcher at the hallway and push it towards the room. Aina opened on of the metal fridge and pull out the body, with each other's help, we moved the body towards the stretcher, and we run towards the emergency exit of this building. The soon as we left the building, people began to run outside the building, and some are screaming. Austin immediately runs inside, being the detective in profession, he needs to be in there. I don't know what came in my mind, but I also followed him inside, leaving mom's body to Aina. We both run towards the lobby of the building, and I saw a mad person circling around the place, he's wearing a vest with explosives on it, he's eyes are also wavering, and he cannot focus his thoughts. His also holding a small remote control with his hand and put it in the air and threatening people that he will press it down if they won't give justice to his dead mother. Looks like his mother's autopsy was performed here and it's manipulated, as what he claimed. He's constantly yelling those words while holding that control. Everyone is in panic and fear, of course they don't want to die, they're humans after all. "Mister! Listen to me, please calm down." Austin said and slowly approaching the man. "No! this damn facility manipulated my mom's autopsy report! My mom would not take drugs!" he yelled and looks very out of it. "No one manipulated it. We can do this talk in legal way, please calm down." Austin answered and the looked on the man's face started to soften. "Will they listen to me?" the man asked. "Of course, they will." Austin answered. "They will not!" the man yelled and was about to press the controller. "Austin!" I yelled and immediately pull him towards me. Before we got away and exit out from the building. The explosives blown and it creates loud and huge destruction over the place. The glass windows and were broken into pieces, there were fire, and many were injured. "Austin are you okay?" I asked him and he has a minor contusion on his forehead and his shoulder is bleeding. "Quianna!" I heard someone called my name, but I feel suffocated, and my head became heavy, my vision became blurry. -- I slowly opened my eyes and white ceiling welcomes me, right, this view is very familiar to me, looks like I'm in a hospital again, for I don't know how many times I've been. "Yana! Are you okay?" someone suddenly exclaimed beside me, I slowly turn my head and I saw Aina with her puffy eyes, did she cry? "Who are you?" I said to her and acting like I do have amnesia. "Oh my God! Doctor! You must see my friend! Doc!!!" Aina yelled while running outside the room. I just chuckled on her reaction and tried to get up. "Aren't you being annoying, after 3 days of being asleep?" I was surprised by a sudden voice, and I saw Austin across me eating his lunch, and staring at me. "Shut up! But did you say 3 days?!" I exclaimed and got up easily than earlier. "Yeah, I'm much injured than you but you slept for 3 days." He answered and now opening a can of soda. "Here, please check her up!" I suddenly looked at the door and Aina barged in having a dozen of doctors behind her. "Hey! I'm alright, I'm just joking on you." I said to her, and she stare at me. "Doc! Please check her, Yana would not prank anyone!" Aina exclaimed and doctors began to examine me, my eyes, my reflexes and even my blood pressure, all is normal. "She's only messing with you." Austin said and now he's done eating. "Looks like the patient is okay, no major injuries for her." The doctor said and left the room. "How dare you?" Aina firmly mumbled while glaring at me. "How dare me?" I firmly said back to her. "Yana! Do you know how many gallons of tears I cried for you?! Do you how much worried I was? Do you know how much patience I put up for that jerk?!" Aina continuously exclaimed and she pointed to Austin at the end. "I'm okay, you don't have to worry anymore." I said to her and patted her shoulder. "Sure? let's have an overall test once again." She suggested, which I immediately stopped her. "No, I'm really okay. I'm just hungry." I said and smiled at her. "Of course, you haven't eaten for a day." Aina suddenly said. But what? "A day? How long I did I slept?" I asked once again. "Just a day, the incident happened yesterday, so I guess half day?" Aina answered and I glared at Austin who's just plainly whistling on. "He's really a jerk." I whispered. "Yeah, he really is." Aina answered and handed me a lunchbox. "Did Dylan go here?" I asked her as soon as I saw the lunchbox. "Yeah, you really know his business, huh." Aina said and handed me the utensils. "Of course, I worked there, but just an intern." I answered. "Oh, right." She just said and I started eating. "Where's mom?!" I suddenly exclaimed before I scoop the food. "Calm down, I put her in a safe place." Aina said which make me feel relieve. "Thanks, I don't know what I would do if it vanished once again." I answered. "But what did you say to Dylan?" I asked. "The truth, minus your mom's." she said, and I just smiled. I continued eating and everyone is silently looking at me, and I feel very awkward about it. Both of them looks like they wanted to ask something, but they were stopping themselves from doing it. I looked at Austin who has a small bandage on his forehead and also his shoulder does have a supporter. Aina on the other hand, looks very much okay, she's not at the scene and I think she's the one who asked for help. But I was really curious, though. Just how my other identity knows everything that will happen in this time? ---
