Melody POV

It was dark. Too dark that I had no idea where I was. All I could feel was the cold of the night that sent shivers into my soul. It was too cold that I thought my heart was going to freeze.

"Is anyone out there?" I screamed for help. My voice echoed into the night. It was as if I was the only one in the world. While trying to create heat with my hands, I heard a car driving from afar.

So I was on the street.

The headlight shone its light at me and I saw it coming straight at me. It was a black car. When I tried to move out of its way, I was unable to. I was glued to that spot. I saw another car driving opposite and with the way the car swerved across the road, I knew something was going to happen. I was standing in between the cars and No matter how I tried to move, I was unable to. I screamed for the black car to stop but it was futile. The car swerving across the street passed through me like I was a hologram and rammed into the black car. The black car somersaulted and landed at the edge of the bridge. No damage was done to the reckless car but the driver's door was missing and when I looked around to find it, it was laying a few meters away from me.

"Help me," a voice begged. It was a child's voice. I was suddenly able to walk as I found myself following the voice that leads to the black car. The car was losing its balance. "Help me," the voice begged again. I rushed to the car and gasped when I saw a family of four. It was a man, his wife, and their daughters. I tried to help them open the door but I couldn't because my hand went right through the door. The driver of the reckless car came out of the car and walked towards the black car that was hanging at the edge of the bridge. The man who seems to be about 180cm tall got to the car but instead of helping, he pushed the car off the bridge. The car landed in the water and I couldn't do anything but stared at the family that had perished.

"What did you do?" I yelled at the man but he only smiled and walked away. I could not see his face because of the darkness. I walked to the edge of the bridge and cried. While I was still crying, I suddenly found myself inside an award. Two girls were lying beside each other. The first girl looks to be about ten years old while the other one looks like a five-year-old. I recognized them as the girls in the black car.

"How did they survive?" I thought as I looked at them. The older one looks to be in the worst condition as she was connected to life support. Hot tears rolled down my face as I stared at the girls. The man could have helped them but he pretended he didn't see them. He killed them.

"Melody, melody," I heard someone calling but I couldn't see who. The voice sounded again and when I turned to look back. I woke up from what I felt was a dream yet it seems like a memory.

"Melody," I recognized the voice as Lorena's.

My eyes lids felt heavy as I tried to open my eyes. I blinked twice before opening my eyes. The white light above me was so bright that I had to close my eyes and opened them again to adjust to the brightness.

"Are you okay? You were crying in your sleep."

"Where I'm I Lorena?" I asked as I look around. The pungent smell of chemicals filled my nose as I struggled to stand up with Lorena. No one needs to tell me that I was in a hospital. "What happened? How did I get here?" I asked

"You don't recall?" Lorena questioned. I looked at her and just then, the memory of the elevator came rushing in. "You were poisoned and Giovanni saved you."
