"Zayla wake up" I hear repeatedly. The voice is familiar...its mom. My body feels cold. I open my eyes, it's blurry and hard to see. My body aches as if I ran the marathon, I stretch my body and scratch my eyes. I see mom's face but not the usual smile that I often see, but a concerned face. "What happened mom?" I ask, as I yawn. "You where screaming in pain AGAIN!, this is the 66th time, we should do something about you're dreams, I can't handle this anymore. It's to painful to watch" mom says and starts to tear up as she takes the sweat of my face with a cold towel. "Mom I'm fine...relax, I promise". I hug her tightly and start to tear up.

As I lay down on the bed I open my eyes from the tears, it hurts...."MOM!! my eyes, it hurts" I scream in pain. I put my hands over my eyes and see.. blood. I can't believe what I see, I look up at mom, she's standing still in a shocked face. "Zayla OMG! You're bleeding from your eyes". As I'm still screaming, my body feels heavy and cold. I can't feel the pain anymore. All I see is some shadows over the bed... I'm afraid, I try to move my body, but it's not working, I try to shout to mom but she's on the phone crying. I'm hopeless.....
