Thirsty...

I'm thirsty...

Water! I need water!

Those words are the only thing that occupied my head; not knowing that I was walking in a tunnel shaped road with a small light ahead of it.

I search for every nook and corner while clenching for my thirst but not a single drop of water was found. While I was looking for water, I just realized that it feels like I'm in a dig hole, like a tunnel.

All I can see is a small light that seems to come from the end of the tunnel.

As my thirst starts to fill my mind, reaching the outside is the only thing that occupies my head.

I can't comprehend the time there... Was it already morning? Afternoon? Or evening? As the time pass, I didn't notice that hunger hasn't striken me...

It feels like that I'm full of energy but my need of water can't be quenched.

As the time goes by, the light grows bigger and bigger.

I don't know how much time it has taken me but it feels so long.

When I face the end of the tunnel, I looked at the glaring light...

Water, water, water!! The thoughts that occupied my head starts to protest more and more.

While facing the light, it was at the moment where my mind was emptied; like a purification of water...

Purification came and the memories came back to me. All my regrets and mistakes came slapping at me.

Even vengeance starts to slowly crawl... But his clumsy and hoarse voice when he wiped my body... the sound of his tears dropping as it meet the glass of my picture frame... his shakey voice when he sang my birthday song, his confession... It stirs my emotion and even my rationality! I didn't realized that my tears were pouring.

In my next lifetime, I will definitely notice you and make you take responsibility for my stirred emotion. As a warm smile slowly creeps into my mouth

At that moment, I didn't notice that my once conservative self was able to think about those provocative words...

The light slowly engulfed my body and consciousness with it's warm, and motherly hug...

....water...

I want to cry for water...

"Hwu...er.." I tried to call out but I can't get my voice out and it really hurts when I try to.

"She's awake! Call the doctor!"

I can hear voices and an annoying beeping sound that irritates me at the moment.

I tried to open my eyes but I was almost blinded by a glaring light.

"Can you see me? Try to focus at the light." A voice of a man that speaks like a doctor asked me.

If I was at my normal state, I would actually mock him in my mind while maintaining my professionalism. Can't he observe that I can't see because of a light is focusing at my eyes? Are you dumb bro? It's weird though, I'm already dead but I can feel my need for water. My throat feels like the Sahara desert.

"Hwa..er" I tried to tell him

"What? Water? Nurse, get her a cup of water and also bring a straw." The voice calmly ordered while also getting off the irritating light focusing at my eyes.

While my eyes were adjusting, my brain is working on questions that bothers me. Why I am here. What happened? Where am I? WHO am I?

I already died so why am I experiencing things that I have already long forgotten when I was dead? As my brain was processing, the woman who seems to be the nurse came into my sight of view with a a cup of water with a straw.

"Drink slowly." the nurse told me as she helped me sit and try to drink the water.

It was so hard sucking at the straw. My energy seems to hit rock bottom while I was freaking sleeping. After a few tries, I succeeded.

"Where... Where am I?" I asked confusedly.

"You are in the hospital. Do you know who you are? You are Yong Zhi Rou. You were on a car accident."

Car accident?... I remember. One thing that confused me is that according from my memories, I was on a car accident 4 years before I died! What is happening here?! Where am I?! What is this?!

"Doctor, what is the date today?" The confusion and irritation of what is happening that was building up inside of me was laced in my voice.

"Today is February 12, 201*" the doctor calmly explained.

"Get me the calendar! The calendar! Give it to me!" I pleaded as my voice started to get louder and louder.

My horror welcomed me as I faced the calendar at my phone...

(10/26/2018)

No... That was four years ago!

Dizziness started to crawl and my consciousness started to blur...

No...

"I'm getting dizzy..." I cried out as I held my head

"Help..."

...

"Miss!" The last thing I heard is the screaming of the doctor and the nurses.
