Illusion of my dreams

Just tired

After what felt like an eternity of driving we pulled over at the large mansion, the moon still at its peek and the stars shining brightly onto us as we exited Bills car.

I helped Laure climb out of the car and gently hugged her. I was so blissed that I had my best friend back.

My heart had shattered into a million pieces when I found out about her death and now that I can feel her in my arms all those pieces got glued back together, just like that. It's crazy how much you depend on the person you love the most.

Without her in my life I wasn't going to be the same anymore, I wouldn't be able to get myself together and do simple chores.

I would be destroyed forever.

" oh cut the crap and hurry up."

Bill angrily snarled at us, his eyes gloomy as the moonlight reflected onto them.

I squeezed Laure's hand before starting to follow behind Bill.

" thankyou."

Laure whispered into my ear as we entered the mansion, our hands locked together.

" don't say thankyou, I'm glad you're okay."

I smiled as I looked over at my best friend.

Her eyes were filled with happiness and I could sense how relieved she was to be found.

My poor girl.

She probably thought we had forgotten about her and wouldn't bother to search for her.

We made our ways to the livingroom where everyone had gathered, all anxiously waiting for us to finally arrive with Laure.

" oh my god, Laure you're back!"

Calina squealed as she laid her eyes onto Laure.

She jumped off the couch and ran over to her, hugging her so intenseley causing me to lose my grip of her soft hand.

Everyone was glad to have her back and the ambience had gotten ten times better since she had entered the house.

Without Laure everything felt so dull, so empty.

I knew that no one dared to show any emotion since they weren't raised the way I was, I couldn't possibly blame them for that but deep down they were definitely grieving about her. She was a piece of us now.

" welcome back!"

Margot giggled as she hugged Laure.

" it's been so boring without you."

She murmured, her eyes deeply staring into Laure's.

" but can you tell us what happened now? Why were you on the news, dead?" Bill asked as he sat down next to Georg on the couch. " it's a long story." " we have enough time."

•Laure's POV•

Everyone's eyes were piercing into mine as they waited for me to explain the whole situation. I was also very confused. I had no clue how Chiyo had managed to get me onto the news.

It was inhuman of him to sell me, use me for porn and all those things. He had done terrible things to me which would probably haunt me til the day I take my last breath.

" Laure? Please tell us what happened."

Tom begged, his forehead covered with a thin layer of sweat as he anxiously panted waiting for me to answer.

He was clawing for answers but I had no idea why Chiyo thought it would be a good idea to announce me as deceased.

I had no clue what his plan was.
