It was another rainy day in Bristol, a city by the River Avon, on the southwest of  England. The city was covered with lights as night fell. Clubs and Bars were filling up with youths and oldies. It looked like the city was preparing to end it's day.

A couple happily drove their way back to their home. The man's hands held the steering while the woman's held a phone.

But seems like God didn't like the view.

A truck came their way with an unimaginable speed, making the man turn the steering towards the side of the road. The car collided with the bridge railings and fell off... into the river.

Slowly sinking it's way down, the car was completely devoured by the ocean that laid below.


"NO!!!" Diana heard heard a scream, which made her wake up in an instant. She frantically ran to another room, knowing it's just one of her nightmares.

As soon as I opened the room, there sat she, on her bed, with a sweat-dripping forehead and eyes that held fear and pain. I hurried to her and embraced her, putting her head in my chest.

"Shh! It's nothing. It has passed, okay?" I tried to console her.

"We heard a scream," a middle-aged man walked into the room, followed by his mate.

I shot my head in their direction.

They are my uncle, Brayden Harvey and my aunt, Laura Harvey.

Aunt Laura walked over to the other side and gently stroked Belle's, my sister, the one I'm embracing at the moment, hair. Her breathing seemed to normalize. I pulled away and looked at her with worry.

"I dreamt of them... again, " she informs.

"It's okay. They will be happy there in heaven," I answered, tucking a strand of her messed up hair behind her ear.

"You guys should sleep now," uncle said.

We three nodded. Uncle and Aunt left the room. I followed them after tucking Belle into the duvet and sending her to slumber.

Well, hello there. I'm Diana... Diana Harvey. I have got a younger sister, Belle, who's two younger than me. I'm 23, by the way. Long story short, we lost our parents two years ago and Belle still has nightmares about it, even after we moved to Edinburgh to our uncles'.

I sat on the bed, thinking about Belle and god knows when sleep found me.


. . .


The birds chirping has always been the best sound to wake up. Even my alarm sounds like one. Though it broke my beauty sleep, I don't mind waking up. It was 6 in the morning. I freshened up and slipped into a pair of casual clothes.

It was no weekend so I had college... yes, college. I'm currently in the last year of master of Business. That's what my parents always wanted. Alliston University has been the top-most university in Edinburgh till date and I study there.

*knock* *knock*

"D, are you ready?" I heard Belle from the other side of the door.

"Yes, Belle," I answered and gathered my books from the study table. Did I mention that I was going to graduate tomorrow? If not, then it's the truth. Finally, I'll be able to live my dreams.
