*Veronica's POV *

Darkness.
I was covered in darkness, floating through the void. What just happened? This isn't lexis' mind world. It felt different. I couldn't feel her.
Someone else? Some other personality? Where am I?

I saw a faint light, at the end of the dark tunnel. I quickly floated towards it. The door kept on disappearing and reappearing in a different location, further and further.

"Urrgh...just come to me." I said and the door moved forward. I was for once shocked.
Things listen here?

I stopped floating and a small cottage appeared. Pebbles glued to the walkway, and a tiny garden at both sides. This cottage was small, like it was built for a six year old.

I bent down and knocked with only my index finger on the red wooden door.
No response.

The darkness cleared, could fully see this garden. It was filled up with flowers of different kinds, lilies especially.  I spotted some roses at the far end. Still growing lavenders and fully grown sun flowers. All in one garden, protected by a little wooden white fence.

The cottage was made with bricks, white windows and a black roof and at the lefthand side, there was a chimney at the top of the roof. All in small sizes.
Does this belong to a dwarf of something?

"Mother, mother, hurry up." A little girl with red hair said. She hopped towards the cottage, as her hair swinged from left to right. She had a permanent smile on her face, telling the secrets of her broken teeth. She would be about six years of age.

I looked up and I saw her mother...wait...MY MOTHER? How is that possible.

I looked back at the girl and I saw me. She was me when I was little.

"Hey..." I called out to the little girl. She didn't look up. She couldn't see me.

"Mother." I called out to my mom, who just walked pass and entered the house.
They both couldn't see me.

This didn't look like my house, back in the human realm, how am I here? Why is my hair red and my eyes...
I looked at the girl and she turned around to close the door. Purple?

I was stuck in another person's dream. Or another personalities dream.

I peeped through the window. I could see her room.it wasn't as I remembered mine. Mine was filled with stuffed toys and this little girl's books. Her room was like a library.  Her bed at the extreme end. We'll, at least she loved pink,  just like me.

Her walls pink, her bed sheet pink, her lap pink and most of her stuff dolls pink. A Teddy bear, more like a Teddy cat...was well,  black. She hugged it tightly, with the other she dragged a small table to the center of her room...of course it was pink. She spread the table cloth across the table, pink. And placed little mugs and saucers, pink. As pushed her chair with was pink to where her table was and sat down,  still holding her stuff doll tightly.

Her mother smiled at this action and placed a big chair in front of the small table. She sat and gave a wide smile to her daughter as she held out a book. Which I assumed to be her daughter favourite.

I couldn't see the title, but I came nearer to make sure I hear ever word.

"Riona, its story time. " She said.

"Hurray."

"But today, I would not be reading your favourite book, but I will tell you a story. " her mother smiled.

"Okay mum."

"Once upon a time, a beautiful witch fell in love with a very handsome king, who was a vampire. They loved each other so much, just like I love you." Her mother said as she stretched out her hands for her daughter to run into, which she immediately did. She enveloped her in a hug and placed her on her laps.
