"Whoosh~" 

The wind blew as I looked at the sky. 

I was atop the hill that was next to my house. 

I heard the chirps of the birds, the faint rustling of the trees and felt the nice warmth of the sunlight.

I closed my eyes as I felt the soft wind blow. I felt relaxed as usual. 

"Myria!" My ma called from below the hill. 

I stood up and waved at my grandmother. "Yes, ma?" I replied. 

"C'mon! Lunch is ready!" She smiled brightly just as usual. 

"Ok, ma." I replied shortly and carefully walked down the hill. 

I followed ma to our house and I couldn't help but feel safe, After all that I can finally feel free. 

- 

"Myria." 

"Yes?" I jolted. 

Ma chuckled, "You were in deep thought, so I just wanted to remind you that your food is getting cold." 

I smiled and said sorry. I looked at the food I was eating but I didn't have the appetite.

I looked at the window and watched the sunset.

"Myria." I turned and faced ma.

"What got you all boggled up?"

...

For a solid five seconds, I didn't answer, more like I couldn't.

"I see, Well.. I hope you remember that I'm always here for you." She said warmly.

I nodded and looked back at my food.

-

I heard a few rustling sounds and a sudden thud woke me up. 

I stood up as soon as I can and looked around the room. 

I was in my and my grandmother's bedroom, but I didn't see ma anywhere. 

I went out of the room and saw ma on the floor, I quickly ran to her and started shaking her to wake her up. 

"M-Ma, wake up.."  I couldn't help but stutter because of the fear of losing her too.

After hopelessly trying to wake her up, I accepted the fact that she was gone. 

I stared at her lifeless body for a minute and in a flash.. I started crying.

"Ma.. My does everyone I love keep on dying? Is it because I'm not good enough?!" 

I couldn't think of anything else but why.. WHY!

WHY DOES THIS KEEP ON HAPPENING?! I'M A HUMAN TOO SO GOD! PLEASE JUST TAKE ME IF YOU WANT TO TORTURE ME CAUSE I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!!

I can't take it anymore..

I cried softly and before I could even stop myself, I fell asleep.

- 

I yawned and stretched my arms. 

I could feel the warm sunlight on my cheeks. 

I looked around and suddenly saw a corpse in front of me!

"AHHHHHH!" 

WHAT IS THAT! WHY AM I IN THE KITCHEN?! I-IS THAT-- MA!

And suddenly the memories I had last night immediately sank in.
