There is no real reality to a really imagined life anymore.

I was awake when I heard the soothing voice of a woman. The woman told me to stop crying while caressing my arm gently. She used a motherly voice to soothe her crying child.

'Who is this woman?' pondered me. 'Whoever it is, please stop crying for the woman's sake,'

Then, I realized I was the one who was crying and did not even know the reason behind it. Immediately, I stopped my cry and opened my eyes.

The only things I got was a blurry vision of the woman. Her raven hair and tan-skinned made the woman look exquisite. The woman's black eyes emitted warm and kindness as if it was a privilege only for her child. Sadly, I was not her child.

"Tarika, your daddy must-"

I did not hear the rest of the woman's word while I prayed whatever happening now it was only a dream. However, my mind warned me this indeed real and not a dream.

The second time I was awake, I welcomed with a blurry vision of a person with golden hair. Golden that gold with metallic color. The person's hair swayed as the wind passed through them leaving a beautiful image. However, the blood-coppery smell from the person wrecked this beautiful image. Not only that, the person's eyes emitted coldness and helplessness that made your heart stir violently.

"You are pitiful, the day you were born was the day your mother died," said the person with a raspy texture of puberty voice. "Even if you are a descendant of the royal family, you will live like a street rat,"

The person who was a boy tightening his hold on me.

"If fate really with you, you might have a chance to pass the night,"

'Why the hell I'm still not waking up,' screamed my mind.

I closed my eyes tightly hoping to wake up sooner. All of this nonsense started getting real. Hence, there was no dream of mine as real as tonight.

Later in the morning, an old lady found a baby who peacefully slept in the backyard of her orphanage. It was not a strange sight for her as if seeing abandon baby was a daily occurrence in her life. The odd thing was there was no name tag that the abandoned baby usually had only a silk cloth wrapped around the body of the baby that indicated its status. The old lady realized this baby must be an offspring of a noble couple. Unknown to the old lady, not only she was a noble she was the child of the prophecy that had royal family's blood in her vein.
