A Dream I Don't Wanna Wake Up
A brilliant light blinded her as she opened her eyes, and she heard unknown voices talking about something she couldn't comprehend. One girl cried "Oh my god she's awake!"
"Call the doctor right away, Meryl," says the man who sounded elderly and worried.
She quickly recognized the man in front of her as her father as she adjusted to the dazzling light. "What happened, dad?" Andy asked.
"You've been sleeping for a month. You scared us, honey. We thought you will never wake up again." She was stunned by what her father said. Before she could respond, the doctor appears and examine her. The doctor asked, "How are you feeling Andy?"
Andy couldn't believe what her father said so she asked "I feel fine but was I asleep for a month?"
"Apparently, yeah. We will conduct some tests to check your condition, but for now, you need to relax and gather some energy because your body has been at rest for so long," the doctor said as he walked out of the room.
Andy, on the other hand, is still perplexed by her situation. She only remembers screaming in her bedroom till she fell asleep.
"Dad I don't understand what's going on."
"It's all right honey. For the time being, get some rest and we'll try to explain everything once you're feeling better."
She has a lot of questions on her mind, but she chose not to ask any more.
Her father and their helper, Meryl left the room to get her food. Now that she's all alone, she looked around the room with her eyes. A table with a flower pot sits on the left side of the bed. A couch is also present, as well as a white curtain that covers the window.
The room is deafeningly quiet. The only sound she can hear is the machine beeping.
As the vivid memories rushed through her mind, she felt a sharp pain in her head.
"We found you lying on the ground in the middle of the night forest; we thought you were already dead, but then you let out a silent whim, so we decided to bring you home and heal your wounds." A girl in a ripped ball gown told her.
"My name is Jana, and what about yours?" she continued."
She is sitting on a wood-made bed. "I'm Andy."
"Which village are you from? The way you dress is very unusual. You're dressed in strange pants instead of a dress."
"Uhh, I'm from the city?" Andy said sounds unsure. "Where are we exactly?"
"Oh, we're in our cabin on the night forest's western edge. We're just waiting for Dyrem to return before heading back to the castle."
The flashback was cut short when she heard a cellphone ring. She searched for it and found it inside the cabinet on the right side of the room.
Keisler, her ex-boyfriend, is shown on the screen. The ringing stopped before she could answer the phone. She returns to her bed while opening her inbox. It's inundated with messages from her friends, all wondering what happened to her and if she's okay.
Among all the messages, the one from Keisler caught her eye. "I miss you, babe. Your father told me you're awake now. I will be there later, please wait for me." It says.
"The nerve of this guy?!" She exclaimed.
