Waking up beside someone, has now became a dream for me.  I really wonder what it feels like to wake up beside someone who is already head over heels for you. Just imagine, eyes slowly opening and the very first thing you see is a man laying beside you who is as beautiful as the moon that glows during the night. As he slowly brings his arms out of the blanket and with a little pat on your head or maybe a forehead kiss, with his raspy voice he says "Good morning little bunny". 

The bedroom door opens and a figure carrying a knife enters the room. That is where I should have woken up from my delusional world  but it seems my heart had other plans. The figure started walking towards me and with her one hand, she took off the blanket which was the only source of warmth from me. That is where I finally woke up and saw a knife facing towards my face. "Mom can you please let me sleep for few more minutes".  The knife from my face gradually fell down and with a soothing voice she said " If you don't wake up in a second I swear I won't let you attend the after party". 

She has always been like this, but I don't blame her for it. I know being a single mother, raising two children is not an easy task, so to ease her mind, I decided to leave my delusional world behind and start my day, where I was required to attend the school, fulfil my duties as a daughter and an elder sister.

The hot cold water was running through each and every inch of my body reminding me of things I have planed to do. Go to school, do some chit chat , a little bit of gossiping and the most important stuff, to secretly watch my crush.

As I started descending the stairs I could hear a news anchor reading the headlines one by one as if he was some kind of a bot who was made to read continuously. Since I already reached the living room I decided to help my beautiful mother in her household chores. While I was standing in the kitchen and stared at mom as if she is someone who had just landed on the Earth from the Heaven, something caught my attention. The news anchor was reading through the news that  involved the murder of a young teenage girl. My eyes full of inquisitiveness fell upon the bright screen, noticing the a familiar young female figure who was brutally slaughtered, laying on porch of someone's house. As my vision got even more clear, I could clearly see that the house was none other than Lexi's. 

With a sense of fear I took few steps forward to the dinning table and with the unsteady hands I picked up my phone. The phone continued to ring on the other side which developed even more terror within my bones. I dashed out of my house and in a blink of an eye, I saw myself standing on a street which was completely  surrounded by the police and media persons. I exactly knew what was happening but still I wanted myself to be proven wrong . In a hope to be proven wrong, my legs started moving towards the crowded house.
