Pocket Watch Games

Chapters 3. Pocket Clock

Cliche pieces from the dark memories of the past creep into Ren's head with accompanying pain. The smell of blood in the air. His facial expression worsened. The people around Ren started crowding the guy who got hit by the truck.

Ren just stood there frozen on the side of the road. Some of the blurry images are starting to become clear. As time went on, the memory continued to torment him as a result of the pain that arose.

"Uh .. " Ren massaged his temple. When the dizziness made the world seem to rotate in his eyes, Ren who stood staggering finally sat on the dirty ground holding his head that felt like breaking.

"Ughs... Don't.." he was troubled by the breath that began to gasp. His face paled his entire body trembling.

His right hand squeezed out the uniform he was wearing. Ren began to fumble indistinctly. The memory seems to have brought memories that were so very bad that it traumatized him severely.

A memory that reveals a dark room and a person carrying a knife in his hand. Ren tried to get the phone in his pocket. He's gotta call somebody whoever it is. He could not take it anymore. He'll reach his sanity limit.

But his trembling hands could not hold the weight of the phone. Ren dropped it on the asphalt road that was filled with blood spots. He tried to take it back but what felt in his hand was a strange round object. That's not his phone.

"That! Uh. ugh" Ren held his head tightly as the sound of police sirens rang out. He didn't want to hear that voice. His head wanted to break. Terrible memories swarmed in. And it's very painful, though partially opaque, but it involves his childhood friend Mira!

The sound is like a key that unlocks some other dark memories. The memory that Ren oendam was trying to hold deep within him to forget all those events.

People started crowding around Ren because they saw him who was somehow lying there in pain.

A police officer walked away from the crowd at the help of another man. He started to approach Ren. Slowly the policeman crouched down and asked Ren.

"You okay?" Ask a policeman.

"... "  Ren gritted his teeth. It's torturing him. He needs medicine or whatever it is that can calm him down.

"Hey! Bring him too!" The police officer called in officers to take Ren to the hospital. Ren's in papah getting in the car. He was taken in by hospital staff because everyone there was worried about his condition.

The reporters came to the scene broadcasting news of the accident on live television at the scene.

After being taken to the hospital, Ren rested for a while. After that he entered a place where a doctor sitting in a chair asked him a few questions. He's a psychology specialist.

His questions related to things that disturb Ren's mind starting from when the last time Ren was angry or ask if he had an accident before.

"I'm fine." Answer Ren. The doctor just understood. Ren didn't want to tell the doctor anything about him for various reasons.

After conducting the question and answer session, Ren was allowed to leave the room and walk in the hallway of the hospital with pictures of children, white walls of white marble, sick people passing by, also, the chair is reserved for family members of the patient to wait.

Drttt drttt drttt

Phone's coming into Ren's phone. The name written there is Reva. Reva's the first person to call her since vacation 2 months ago.

"What?" Asked Ren with a flat face.

[More! I swear you really are gpp, right?!] Reva's scream on the phone makes Ren reflex to keep his phone away.

"..." - ".Ren silently frowned confusedly hearing Reva who suddenly shouted just to make him astonished.

[Woy answer! Jan diem Mulu bg ] Reva's orders while shouting.

".. yes gpp...kali?" Ren replied still walking down the aisle of the hospital.

[Jan nanya back you.] Reva answered shouting.

She grabbed her own hair behind the telepin trying to understand Ren's behavior. He had to be patient with his scheming friend on this one.

[I saw you on TV being carried into an ambulance]

Ren oh slowly. The reporters arrived sooner than he thought. Hearing the reaction from Ren which was just that, Reva again upset. This time he banged his head on the wall making Ren ask.

"What sound should it be?"

A little boy holding a brown teddy bear ran down the hospital hallway. Not knowing that there was a child running from behind, the little boy accidentally hit his left leg.

Bruk!

He fell down while the little boy also fell not far from him. The little boy picked up his teddy bear.

Hp Ren was thrown and fell down the waiting chair in front of a room.

"Ouch..." Ren complained of the pain he was trying to wake up. But she just realized something. His left hand held a hard round object.

"?!" Ren's surprised. Since when did he hold that thing?!

The little boy who hit him suddenly touched his shoulder slowly. He turned to find a little girl with hair in two pigtails using a pink ribbon was hesitant.

"I'm sorry it hit... Brother" he said embarrassedly hiding behind his teddy bear. His phone still speaks Reva's words but Ren ignores them.

Ren smiled looking at the girl and stroked her head slowly because she was so cute.

"It's okay. Go." Ren said in response with a nod to the child.

The little girl turned around and ran away from Ren. Ignoring Banda in his left hand, Ren took the phone that had fallen under the chair.

[Hello?! Ren's? WOY! REN'S! Answer that's what Trak was! Reeennn. ANDREE] shouted Reva multiple times until there was a sound behind the phone.

['Whispering! Reva.'s.' Eh eee maap Aunt. B-tomorrow I pay well . hhe.] This kind and friendly mother's mother screamed in front of Reva's room.

"Gdh..." Ren restrained his laughter hearing Reva apologize to the mother's mother.

[?! You laugh, right?]

"Gaa” replied Ren while smiling meaningfully. Unfortunately Reva could not see his smile.

[Can ... Kan's! Don't boong lu. You must be smiling at your own smile right? Well, you don't die. ]

"Yes BD" he said before turning off the phone. I think he's in a good position. Ren continued walking outside the hospital. The thing in his hand was a pocket watch that was very unique like an antique clock.

He thought about handing her over to the police because he remembered the first time he touched this object during the accident. This pocket watch may belong to the accident victim.

Ren searched the police around the hospital. There was 1 police car parked in front of the hospital. On the edge was also a policeman standing checking some equipment.

"Excuse me, I found this clock on the scene. Maybe it's the victim's property" Ren said, handing over the pocket watch he held.

"Hour??"
