Is this-?

Generally, people wake up early in the morning to get ready, either for work or for school. Some people wake up late until noon, sometimes even going as far as past noon. Those people can be considered normal, yes, people who wakes up past noon are also considered normal.

Lying around, thinking about things that aren't really important. Here, I lie in my bed with these eyes with bags.

"Damn, what time is it now?"

*Looks at the clock*

"Oh shit, 9 p.m.? You've gotta be kidding me right now."

Just kidding, that's something I consider normal for myself, only. As you've guess, yes, I'm not healthy. My sleep schedule is very broken if I'm being honest. This started a while ago, back when this pandemic struck, a deadly virus apparently. Many people died at the time and it lasted for like 1 and a half year, I guess? Well, I didn't really felt the terror of that deathly time.

"Dude, Thanath, sleepy head okay?" Raphael asked.

By the way, Raphael's my roommate, we live in an apartment. Oh I didn't tell you this but I'm a freshman and now I know what's in your mind. Full of thoughts like, "With your severe case of insomnia you're a student?". Well, I hate to break it to you but a lot of student right now have the same case as me, mine's just a special case. Silly me, let me continue.

"Yup, I've been studying so much I felt like my eyeball came off last night. I've got to perfect this exam or else I'll end up having low marks, again."

"You know that doesn't help much you know, you'll end up forgetting that I swear." Raphael smirked.

"Well then, give me some useful advice, smart ass."

"Stop playing online games whenever there's an exam, that should be helpful."

"Hell no! I live solely to enjoy you know that right?"

"To enjoy? Let's see about that when you come to me crying about your failed mark." Raphael laughed.

Raphael's that one friend you despise for being supportive but doesn't feel their support. We argue all the time, he accompanies my crazy hour sometime, I'm grateful for having a friend like him. Oh no, is this drama? The hell am I talking.

"Geez, can you shut up now? I'm about to study, please be quiet."

Raphael climbed the double-decked bed and you can hear the screeching sound coming from the wiggly metals that holds the bed together. My study table is located beside a window, you know I kinda like studying and watching unnecessary things sometimes.

"This theory aims to know the behaviour-"

I stopped, I noticed something that is moving in the corner of my eye. Raphael's asleep on bed, and I began to feel the atmosphere of spookiness. The only light that is lit at the moment is my study lamp.

"I may believe in you if you put my mind at ease now, God."

I continued and pretended to focus solely on my study load.

"Freud's theory- WHAAAH!"

I noticed my eyeball fell off and that made me freak out. I felt the pain the moment my eyeball fell off and noticed something approaching to me. I cannot describe the appearance since the other vision of my other eye got blurry from the panic I felt. As the thing walk towards me I suddenly heard someone.

"Hey! What the hell is that noise?" Raphael asked while shaking me so hard.

"What happened?" I asked.

"Dude you just screamed and freak the fuck out of me!"

"My eyeball just came off earlier!"

"Dude, you just dreamed about what would happen if you stay awake for too late. Your mind knows what will happen and it made you to dream about that." Raphael sarcastically said.

"Is this-? No, the hell. Maybe I'm just too tired."

It felt real. I've been imagining things too much lately.
