Chapter 14

LORRAINE

This can't happen!!! I'm all freaked out!!!

Passing out is nothing but dying is something.

Well...that's what it is to me.

I stumbled on the floor. I screamed and screamed and screamed my head off. I banged my fist on the concrete floor where my body lay, mangled and bloody.

I teared up as I looked again at my mangled, dead self.

Okay. I'm overexaggerating. I might not be dead yet...yet.

I turned. I looked at my reflection on the fountain nearby. I look perfectly fine. Better, actually.

"Lorraine?"A shocked voice called to me. I stiffened. I would know that voice anywhere. I stiffly turned around to face the person who called me.

And there she is, standing in a beautiful green dress, her face absolutely beautiful...but not a beautiful as I am.

Gale.

"Gale!"I ran to her even if it pained me and crushed her in an embrace. I let all my feelings out. I cried hard.

"Lorraine? What are you doing here?"She asked, confusion plastered on her face.

"I-I don't kn-know! I woke up in the bar--"

"YOU WERE IN A BAR?!"

"Long story short. Anyway, I woke up there, I asked the security what's happening, he didn't answer so I came over here to see, and I saw myself there!"I pointed to my body, now being examined by medics.

"No! I meant what are you doing here in Sydney?"Gale corrected.

"Well what are you doing here in Sydney?"I asked her.

"I heard you calling for help! I had to come rescue you, but it turns out your subconscious self is alive! Now answer me! What are you doing here in Sydney? In a bar?!"Gale was becoming impatient again.

"I was depressed, okay! I lost my sister! My beloved nephew was staring at empty walls! It pained me to see him like that of course, so I travelled around the world and left him there with R. L. and Hannah and Champ and Taylor!"I screamed. Gale stepped back.

"My son...Zach...he's depressed too?"She asked.

"You died, Gale! YOU DIED! How are we supposed to react? Your son, how is he supposed to not be depressed? He lost both his parents within two years!"I lost control. Gale looked even more shocked than she was when she saw me.

"Okay. I understand. You were shocked. BUT WHY DID YOU HAVE TO BE IN A BAR?!"

Another Lorraine POV chapter guys!

Starting tomorrow I already have school so I may not update daily okay? Please understand.

But on weekends there will probably be updates.

If I am updating very often on school days it means either of the five:

1. There's suspension of classes
2. I'm done with schoolwork
3. I don't have schoolwork
4. There are really no classes
5. I'm somewhere in the house...hiding with my phone.

I'm gonna be 13 the day after tomorrow!!! I'm so excited!!!
