'Kathren?'

I turn my head towards the door and a figure of a woman is drawn to my eyes. Which is weird, i never socialize with women. Not that i socialize, but if i did, most of my friends would be guys. Females are just creatures i'll never understand, even as a female myself! She has brown hair with beautiful bouncy curles. Her hazel-greenish eyes light up the room. Oh, don't get me started on her figure! She's not thin, but she's also not overweight, just right! Her smile, beautiful! Wait, thats the exact description of my mother! Could it be? My mom is still alive? How come?

'Mom?'

'Yes, honey it's me!' She takes slow steps towards me.

'How come?! You died in a car accident with Juliana and...' i feel the tears building up in my eyes. 'And dad.' That statement coming soft trying to hold back the tears.

'It's me honey.' She combs my messed up hair with her fingers.' Don't cry, i'm here now! You know i would never leave you alone!'

---------

'Sorry, Lady?' I hear an unfamiliar male voice. 'Are you okay?'

My eyes struggle to open, it was a dream! Of course it was, my mom is dead and she's never coming back! My body is trembling and wet with sweat. I'm sniffing and my eyes are puffy. So i'm guessing i've been 'mumbling and weeping' in my sleep again!

'Yes, thanks. You can go back to sleep now.'

It's that guy who was brought in 2 days ago! He can talk? Wow, his voice is very... melodic. If that makes sense. It's not deep but it's very crispy, in a nice way. His eyes are a beautiful sparkling blue colour which are showing concern towards me. He's face is very clear, i mean he doesn't have facial hair!

'Want to talk about it?'

What the fuck? He is being nice to me! He's not making fun of how i look. I'm confused, a lot in that case.

'No, it's okay. It was just a nightmare.'

'That made you cry...' it comes out in a question form rather than a statement.

I release a little giggle and a small smile forms. This guy! He's making me smile! Oh shit! I just smiled! What is he doing to me!?

'Well, i have no explanation for that.' I comment

'Then go ahead. I'm listening, talk to me.' He crosses his legs on his bed and looks at me like he's watching television. His eyes burn into mine and i have the urge to look away but i can't!

'Not now, maybe someday. Right now i want to sleep.'

'I understand...' a chuckle bursts out of his mouth carved in a smirk. He gets into his bed and lies down. 'A lady needs her beauty sleep, goodnight.'

I go back to the position i slept in and immediately fell asleep.

---------

'Morning.' A voice wakes me up but i refuse to answer him.

'Hello, earth to you!' The words coming out like nursery rhyme. I still don't budge and just act like i didn't hear anything.

'I know you're awake.' His voice sounds closer to me.

Fuck, doesn't he get the message! I don't want to talk to him!!

'You owe me an explanation... and i've been waiting!' He lays his hand on my shoulder like it has thorns and he doesn't want to get pricked.

'Please get your hand off me.' My demand coming out rather cold. But he doesn't remove it, instead he starts massaging it.

'Come on man, wake up. Breakfast is on it's way.' He tries to cheer me up.

'Please leave me alone? Please.' I try to be polite.

'Okay? Okay, uh.. it's fine. Let me not invade your space.' He slowly walks back to his bed. I feel his eyes still glued to me but i don't even try to look at him.
