Ever heard a noise so loud that scared you and made you feel your heart stopped beating for a second?
Ever felt goosebumps all over your body because your intuition told you something wasn't right?
Ever felt a part of you is gone, that part you need to survive?

I woke up this morning with a headache, all my body hurt, I could barely stand up. I fear all 206 bones in my body weighted the same as a truck loaded with thousands of rocks. I felt weird. I guess that's a good thing, means I party like I had to last night.

Today was a new day, I had go to school, I had to hear all those boring teachers saying the same thing over and over again. Good thing my boyfriend was in the same school as I am, my 2 best friends are in my classroom and that makes school more exciting. I went down to get my breakfast , mom always made me the best pancakes. Sat down at the table but no pancakes, no mom, or dad reading the newspaper. Guess they woke up early and left for work. The t.v. was on, there was a movie on, it was kinda lame though; there were people crying next to a hospital bed.
It was late for me, I had to go to school.

I opened the door to pick up the newspaper and head for school, but the newspaper was blank. It was all blank! No words, no letters, no images, no nothing! I threw it in the trash, it was useless. I picked up my way to school. Block after block I passed and didn't see a single soul, there was no one. It's like everyone disappeared. When I finally got to school all doors were closed. What was going on? No people, animals, not even clouds! Was this a joke?
Before I got home if was already dark. When did time started to pass so fast?
I called my mom, but no answer, no one answered my calls, no one texted me.

I made myself dinner, went to bed and I could swear to you I only slept for an hour and it was already morning. Time was flying.

"Mom", I yelled when I woke up. No answer.

"Daaaad", not even the sound of the wind.

3 days passed and still there was no one. I went down as usual to make myself breakfast and before I stepped in the kitchen I felt pain in my chest, my shoulders got heavy, I felt my pain extand downward into my abdominal area, it was like a heartburn. I could barely breath, I felt dizzy and that's when...

"Oh my God! She's waking up."
"Doctor, doctor come quick."

I could see myself lying on a hospital bed, some people around me dried of there tears. There were all types of flowers in that hospital room, all sizes of balloons and teddy bears. There was a women that looked kind of like me, she seemed exhausted and there was a man holding her hand. There were two girls in one side and a boy in a chair crying and it looked like be hadn't eating for a few days.

Very slowly I opened my eyes, I could barely move, all my body hurt. I felt weird. Everyone in the room kept starring at me without saying a word. Finally the doctor said, "Well after 3 months Fabiola finally woke up from the coma, that was quit a car accident, we'll run a few test in the afternoon to see if everything is going how is suppose to, you have two hours to talk with her, and that includes family and friends."

When I was going to ask them what was going, this lady with a huge smile on her face and covered with tears said to me, "I missed you so much, we all did, how do you feel Fabiola?"
With a big question mark in my face I asked her "Who's Fabiola?"
