Voices. Tingles. Whispers.
I feel someone touching my face. I lean to it, craving for its touch. I sigh contently and call Drew's name and the touch was gone I frown but sleep took me again.
I woke up with a loud hiss on my right side. I saw someone his back facing me. "Are you alright?" my voice hoarse. He stiffen and turn to face me. His tall and handsome, he has a friendly face a tight smile.
"I should be asking you that. You're finally awake." he approach my bed. I wear a blank expression.
"I just hope I didn't." I didn't look at him. I just stare at my hand and frown. "why do you want to die badly? " his soft voice caught me.
"I don't have the reason to live. " I whisper. "I will kill the guy who let you do such thing. " he sound angry I gasp and look at him "how did you know it's a guy? " I saw a smile plastered in his face. "I just guess it" he shrugged.
Silence. I look at my hand again, I hate seeing this thing in my hand.
I was about to take the hose in my hand when a large hand stop me.
"don't even think about it. The last time you did that. We almost lost you. I don't want to go back to that dreadful days. " he growled and sound angry again.
I sigh. "would you atleast tell me your name? " he was taken aback by my sudden question but answer me.
"I'm Jeoff. You are.? " I'm thinking of giving my other name but it came naturally. "Allyra. "
He was about to say something when the door burst open I jump in sudden action.
I move even closer at my back until I hit the headboard.
"you're awake! " a girl squeal. I hid my head between my knees.
"you're scaring her Aura. " Jeoff said
"I'm not. " I feel a hand touching my arm.
"please. Make it quick. " I whisper
I heard a gasp.
"you want me to kill you? " I heard pain and disbelief in her voice.
"it'll make my life easier. I just want to end it but I'm here. Why? " I ask and lift my head to see hurt, pain and worry itching on their faces. I can't hold it anymore. I single tear run to my cheek. My heart feel the agonizing pain I hold my chest and sobs are coming. I can't control it anymore I scream, the agonizing pain. I let it all out, I scream and scream until I can't no longer hear my voice. I didn't realize that someone is hugging me saying soothing things. I didn't realise that she also crying while hugging me. Maybe I cried for many minutes I didn't know that there were people around. I'm too exhausted to notice the person standing on the doorway before I even look at the doorway, sleep took over.***
I was in a forest lying on the green grass. I stood up and look around me, it's like the sun is starting to fade. Not long the star makes their appearance. It was peaceful, soothing even until a sound of a dried leaves being smash disturb the night. I look to the side where it came from I stiffle a gasp. There in front of me a big wolf with golden yellow eyes. I remain still in my position while the wolf slowly walking my way. I didn't move something inside of me saying that I must not run. Now the snout of the wolf is inches away from my neck. It sniff me and look at me, I look at it also I was drawn to it's eyes it became bluish green with a ring of golden yellow on it and suddenly it growls. I back away and saw that there is another wolf all I heard are growls and next thing I know they were attacking each other. Something wet splash in my face I wipe it and know what is it. Blood. A scream left my lips.I sat up right. It's just a dream.
Someone barge in my door, I jump a little and saw a frantic looking Jeoff.
I guess my scream wake him up.
"I'm sorry. I had just a nightmare."
He sigh. "it's all right. You should go back to sleep." he was about to leave when I speak. "why did you save me?"
I ask him the question that I'm bugging to asked.
"I didn't save you. Aura did, I just hold you when you're about to fall."
That makes no sense. I sigh.
"still. Why?"
"you will not let it go tonight. Do you? " I nod. He let a frustrated sigh and sit on a chair next to my bed. "Aura commanded me to save you. I don't have a choice." he said but with a smile. "you have a choice not to." I argued.
He just look at me and said "when I love someone, whatever she will said even if it's the dumbest and craziest thing. I would gladly do it. It's worth it." I was taken aback and feeling lonely again. Drew never do that to me, I was the one who always do things for him. "well, I answered your question. Go to sleep now."
I nod again not meeting his gaze.
"everything will be all right. You should forget the past and live for your future. Goodnight Allie"I didn't respond. The nickname he use had so much memory to me. I close my eyes and immediately fall back to sleep.
Maybe there is a reason for it or maybe its another false hope, another twist of fate.
