(tw: disturbing image?)
Marcy has decided to move back to her old house. When she was young she's forced to move to another state with her family because plenty of reasons she'd been told. It was just a small town.
She parks her car at the front and got out of it. Upon looking around the area, she discovered sort of things are in a bad condition. The garden that was belong to her mother used to have a various types of flowers that are appealing to look at, now what's left was a dirty old grey garden. Next to it was a dusty bike that was still intact, it looks like it could still be used. Looking at it made her remembered that she used to cycle to the park with her best friend. They would always picked flowers together, but one day her parents had to move her to live on an area with less more flower for her own safety.
"Why did mom left most of her flowers to die here instead of bringing it to our new place?" Till this day Marcy still had no idea what's up with flowers. All she was told was to keep away from flowers because it might triggers her "panic attack".
She could recalled her mother's face when she woke up on a hospital after feeling conscious, her face was plain cold terrified and looks like it was about to burst into tears. It was weird for me to see her reacting like that, not long I noticed one of my vision was black off. I ask her what'd happened, no answers given she hold me close in her arm. I felt confused but I wasn't thinking too much at that time and wrap my arm around her back. That warm hug was quite soothing.
..After the recovery (POV: still her young self )
She was given an eyepatch by her mom and was promised to never took it off, until now she swore to never lay a hand on it. The sun is setting, as they were about to have a family out at Marcy's favorite park as soon as they had arrived there Marcy immediately wandered off and head to the her usual spot which is in the flower field. Her dad shouted to not go too far but Marcy was still busy running around in there and having fun. At one point Marcy lie down in the flowers and rest her head. After a while, she sensed that something was watching her. She turned around but seeing no one was there other than her parents. If it was her parents it would be quite understanding but her gut feeling was telling her to run back to them. She sits back up and look around back and forth anxiously to secure her surrounding but there was not a single soul except her parents of course. Her heart's pounding fast, she took a little step back and turn towards her parents, to her surprised they all disappeared all of a sudden. This time she felt shivers down her spine not knowing where to go, she tried to gain up her stamina and run out of the field but a sudden grip made her trip. Without her knowing a vine had tangled her leg. She struggled to let it off cause the vine had tangled her leg tightly, it's too late now it kept on growing.. because of wanting to escape really badly she attempts to run again in hope it would severed the vines. Again, no luck. She pulled herself back up again, she didn't notice she'd stepped on one of the flower until she'd felt the size was different than the others, it was quite bigger and look unusual.. she lift up her foot and was shocked the flower had a bunch of eyes on it. Seeing that she fell on her back in shock. Her heart pounds rapidly. The flower grew bigger it looks like it was 8ft tall, its terrifying features especially that bunch of glowing horrifying eyes looking like its staring straight at your soul. Marcy had no other choice but to screamed out loud for help, but judging by her standing in the middle of the flower field no doubt anyone could even heard her.
"Somebody please help me, get me away from this nightmare.." Marcy still hoping someone could still rescue her eventually. She covered her eyes with her hand not wanting to see the horrible faces. Not long after she could feel her body got dragged backward. Out of fear, Marcy burst into tears of the fact she could not move a single limb. She awaits as if her fate was going to end that day without getting to see her parents for the last time..
.. Marcy woke up screaming and gasping out loud with tears streaming down her face. Her parents who was checking up on her all the time was worried that she spiraled out of control. They were trying to calm her down. Marcy who was still shaking in fear tried to explain what'd happened but they look at her in fear as if she was a crazy person.
If I remember correctly just the day after that they tried to take me to therapy. I tried to convince them that I don't need any but of course they had to ignore what I said. They ran through a bunch of psychological test to me but so far the results were nothing. Since they've convinced that there was nothing wrong with me they could bring me home now. Just before we get going the therapist give me the flower on their small vase as a gift. That was when something unexpected happen, I started seeing eyes appearing on the flower and it's moving. The panic start to rise and lead me onto hitting it off the therapist hand. When I'd realized what I had done I stared at my shaky hand, it would not stop shaking.. everyone in the room stared at me in shock.
Throughout my life I've been so attach with flowers. Why does everything change all of the sudden?
