The dark threads of fate

Nightmare

Emelia

The shadow was closing in on me, its presence growing with each step. I felt a surge of fear take over as it drew closer. My footsteps quickened, and my eyes darted left and right, desperate to find a way out, a place to hide.

I turned to the right, heading into a deserted, dark area where rain was pouring heavily, soaking me to the bone and making me shiver from the cold and fear. I was just wearing Light clothing with a jacket that barely warms me.

Where am I? Why is this happening to me? I noticed that the footsteps of my pursuer were starting to fade, disappearing into the background.

turned to my right to catch my breath, then looked to my left... and there he was. A man stood a few meters away, his back turned to me. Slowly, he began to turn his head, his gaze locking onto mine, and a sinister smile crept onto his face, freezing the blood in my veins.

The rain poured down heavily, and thunder roared, shaking the sky. I trembled with fear and looked around, spotting the man again. He wasn't far this time; he was advancing toward me with quick steps.Dressed entirely in black, his cap obscured most of his face, and I could only make out part of his jaw. I realized he was the same shadow that had been stalking me.

Quickly, I turned to the left, trying to escape. My heart pounded harder with each step, and my fear intensified. I didn't know where to go; every path was dark and deserted, as if the entire place was abandoned, lit only by a faint sliver of moonlight.

Exhausted, I stumbled and fell, injuring myself. I slowly turned back but didn't see the man behind me. Perhaps he had left, or maybe he would return at any moment. I struggled to stand, haunted by the thought of his possible return.

I stood, catching my breath, completely lost. Slowly, I moved forward, and then I saw a faint light in the distance. Maybe there were people... maybe signs of life. But something felt strange; the closer I walked toward it, the more the light seemed to drift away. Was I hallucinating from exhaustion?

I kept going, noticing a figure moving within the light. I hurried, though my legs felt weak and unsteady.

Finally, I reached the spot. Rain was pouring down heavily, blurring my vision. In front of me stood a man with his back toward me, his face hidden. As I looked closer, I noticed another shadow behind him, holding a sharp weapon. The shadow began to approach the man slowly.

I shouted, "Watch out! There's a dangerous man trying to kill you!" But my voice was lost in the roar of the rain, and he didn't hear me. I watched in horror as the shadow plunged the weapon into the man, once, then again, until the man collapsed, motionless on the ground

Frozen in place, I couldn't move. The shadow turned to me swiftly, his hands dripping with blood, washed away by the falling rain. He laughed loudly, his voice echoing alongside the thunder, and then he said in a chilling tone, "It's your turn now."

He started running toward me, and I let out a shaky scream, my voice echoing in my own ears. Suddenly, I heard someone calling, "Em... Emelia..."

I felt a hand gently shaking my arm, and I opened my eyes slowly, letting out a sigh of relief. "It was just a dream... I almost died," I whispered. I looked over to see Dr. Rog standing beside me.

Dr. Rog asked me anxiously, "Are you alright? You were hallucinating, even sweating.
" She placed a hand on my forehead. I replied, "I'm fine... it was just a bad dream." Looking around, I asked, "Was I sleeping in the nurses' room?" She continued, "Dr. Sha called you ten times. He said you're late, and he was looking for you, only to find you here, asleep."

Interrupting her, I quickly searched for my phone. "Where's my phone?" I found it lying under the bed, picked it up, and called Dr. Sha immediately.

He answered with an angry voice, "Where have you been? Twenty minutes have passed! You don't seem to grasp the importance of time here. Your father didn't send you to this hospital to be careless. Come to my office, now." He hung up before I could say a word.
