He walked slowly towards me with his same old terrifying belt... Each step counts the seconds that I am still alive. One... Two... Three... He stopped. It's the time I'm going to be dead.
"Dad, you don't have to do this. Please!" I begged. I fell down to my knees, crying and screaming with fear. My heartbeats went faster and faster, I couldn't breath. I was scared to death.
"DADDD-" I shouted before he started to torture me.
"Cassie! Cassie!" Someone called my name. I looked up to the ceiling, it was coming from the top...... I woke up suddenly, catching my breath as much as I could. I was sweating massively and I could feel the dried tears on my face. I looked around me. Everyone seemed to be freaking out, especially Kirstie who was crying and hugging me tightly.
"What happened, Cassie? What happened to you??" Mitch asked.
"What happened to me??" I asked. I was worried that I had sleepwalks in the middle of the night and did something foolish again. Well, at least that's what I used to do in the middle of the night from the past. I was troublesome and annoying, I needed someone to put me back to bed every time and that person was always my mom. But then one day at the age of 12, I stopped sleepwalking. You can imagine how many times my mom had to wake up and put me back to sleep for those freaking 12 years!
"Scott found you sleepwalked in the middle of the night when he was getting a glass of water. He saw you kneeling down on the floor in front of the TV and was terrified. He woke me up and I put you back to sleep. This morning about 8 am, we heard you screaming and crying for help so we entered your room. You were standing then falling down on your bed again and again. I was screaming and scared, I had never seen anything like this before. We quickly called everyone here and we thought you were possessed..." Mitch explained.
Oh great! My sleepwalking is back and it's even worse! Everyone is thinking I'm possessed.
"Hey guys... I was wondering maybe we can stop our concerts for a while" Kirstie said.
"Wait. What?! Kirstie, we couldn't do that!" Kevin disagreed.
"Why? I wanna spend more time with my girl, can't I?" Kirstie fought back.
"Number 1, the fans will be super disappointed. Number 2, it makes us feel like we're irreponsible. Number 3, what are we going to tell to Michael and Carissa (US the Duo)? Number 4, people have already bought tickets to the show. They will be wasting their money!" Kevin fought again.
"Guys, please. Please stop fighting, okay? The only thing we could do is see Doctor Lambert" Scott suggested.
We all went to Doctor Lambert's clinic in the hospital.
"Hi Doctor Lambert. So how's Cassie doing? She had sleepwalking in the middle of the night!" Scott asked.
"Don't worry Mr Hoying, she's doing fine. Sleepwalking has nothing to do with anxiety attacks. Does she had sleepwalking last time or at least once?" Doctor Lambert asked.
"Umm......" Everyone looked at me and I nodded.
I told them about my past, about sleepwalking. Kirstie cried and hugged me as usual, she loved me a lot as well as the others.
"I'm so sorry, honey. I'm so so sorry" Kirstie said.
Third Person's POV
The next morning after breakfast in Scott & Mitch's (And also Cassie's) apartment, Cassie started to get a headache. She walked to her room, lay on her bed and close her eyes. Her headache became more painful than before. She couldn't take it anymore.
Cassie's POV
My headache was really painful and I couldn't take it anymore. I walked to the toilet, open up the mirror door and took out a pill from a bottle in the mirror-cupboard. I took another and another, till I finished up the whole bottle of it.
My vision became blur and I could feel my body was light-weighted. I couldn't feel myself, my presence.
