A Rape Case

I asked him for a cigarette. It was a chilly night, and I had long ago heard praises of cigarettes. He continued driving and offered me his half-finished cigarette instead of lighting a new one. I would have rejected it if it weren't for the cold weather and the wind was striking on my face since there was no roof in his jeep.

As I accepted it and started dragging a long puff, he asked me about my destination.

I chuckled at his absurdity. Which driver takes in a hitchhiker without asking about their destination ? It seemed like he was a newbie and I directly told him this. Maybe I got the courage to talk due to his cigarette since I always stuttered and didn't talk to people that much.

I could still feel the sticky residue on my nether lips, slowly trickling down in my torn panty. I felt the need to retch, but there was no more liquid or food in my stomach to be expelled out. My mind was still reeling from the experience of my first time. How brutal they were, and how naive I was to run away alone with a guy whom I had thought to be my one and only for life. I was feeling absolutely blank about my rape as we passed through many villages in the jeep.

Suddenly he jabbed a finger into my arm, effectively waking me up from my stupor. He asked me about my destination again and pointed out my torn and dirty clothes. I told him that I was a ghost, who died after being raped in the forest. I wanted to see his reaction only. But to my disappointment, he gave a cryptic chuckle only.

Suddenly, he told me to look towards the forest on my left-hand side... nothing could have prepared me for what I saw. There laid the bodies of those four people, one of them being my supposed lover. Their bodies were mutilated badly, legs torn, intestines fallen out from their bellies, and their penises cut off and stuffed in their mouths... their faces were intact though. I again heard his happy laugh as tears started dripping from my eyes... soon my hoarse voice turned into a loud wail, pouring out the pain and injustice that happened to me. Finally, my burnt wounds felt the peace of salvation... as I looked towards him again after calming down, I noticed his eyes were also black and hollow like mine.
