Rediscover earth through her eyes. Her life changes when she gets to know that there is no alternative for home.
This is the...
When she got her senses back after a short while of comatose, she had no idea of what had happened to her and where she was. Then, Char took notice of a rhythmic sound of foot tapping on the metal floor. It was a good thing to hear as if the voice had a beauty of its own. This was not normal. How could some noise be soothing for the ears? Who could be tapping on the floor and why in a pattern? She was lost in the sound and all her thoughts seemed to circulate around the sound. She put out the more important questions like where she was, what she was doing in the metal cell, why was there no light in the place, etc from her mind. A systemic solace enveloped her as she got wrapped up in the tempo. Her heartbeat became parallel to it and therefore the atmosphere felt more or less synthetic. She was so lost in the music that only when it finally ended she understood that she felt a sharp pain in her head and that she was filled with fear by the state of affairs. She crawled to the side of the wall from where the noise was heard. Her body was very rigid and nearly paralyzed. She leaned on to the wall and tried to call out, but all that came out of her mouth was a whisper, which could be easily mistaken for a sigh.
"Char, isn't it?" she heard a voice ask her from the other side of the wall.
"Yes. How are you? Why am I here? Can you help me? There is no light here and no door to get out. I am afraid and it is too small that I am suffocating. My head hurts so much. I think I am dying," That speaking first started as a confident interrogation ended in a pathetic cry for help.
"Char, calm down. I know this is hard but pull oneself together. You need to be strong. You got shot by an electric current that induces supplies into your body. At the moment you need to sleep. This happens the foremost time one gets supply introduction using electricity. So just lie down and sleep. You will feel better when you will wake up. We can talk later. You'll catch some sleep, won't you?" Char heard the man from the other side of the metal wall reassure, in between the suppressed sobs that escaped her mouth.She hadn't noticed that her eyelids were too heavy when she was weeping.
"I will get some sleep," Char murmured before dozing off.
