The Nobody

Chapter 8

I look up and she smiles at me. "What did you finally see that our world is real? You don't remember how you got access to our world?" She asked me. I shook my head no there was this one time where I was in an accident. But what happened after it. Is all a blur.

"No I don't remember how I don't remember anything. I always remember seeing this world and thinking that it was all in my head. I think it still is just in my head. I mean how can this world really exist? I don't see the place but only in dreams," I said.

She laughed and grabs a chair and pulls it in front of me before she sat down. I noticed she was the only one not breaking and falling apart when she moved. "You will never get it unless we open up your eyes am I right?" She asks me. I shrugged my shoulders.

"Unless you can show me proof of this place then no I won't think this place is real," I said. She looked at me with sad eyes and I felt bad. I shouldn't be feeling bad but somehow I do. Then she looks up at me and I see determination in her eyes.

"Fine you want proof? Then I'll give you proof," she said getting up. I didn't move I just sat there. Do I really want to know if this world is real or not? I mean if it is then why do I have access to it? All of these thoughts were swimming in my head. Then I looked up at her. "Fine you can show me then," I said.

I get up and I follow her as she grins at me. "Finally you grow some lady balls," she said I rolled my eyes at her and followed her without saying anything. I did want to say something badly to what she said. We walk back through the house and she takes me back to the door that I closed.

"Wait we can't go through that door," I said taking a step back from the door. The girl looked at me and shooked her head at me like I was crazy. She opens the door and I take a step back getting scared. I was waiting for everything to fall out the door when nothing does I sighed in relief.

"What did you think was going to happen?" She asks me. "I thought that glass was going to fall through. Because when I got here I started to see that people were falling apart on me. So I ran and then I ended up in this room," I said.

She watched me for a while and shook her head at me. "So it's finally happening I see this world is finally starting to fall apart. Looks like we don't have that much time like I thought we were going to have," she said. I looked at her and I don't say anything.

She goes through the door and I follow her and we don't say anything as we walk through the place I looked around and I don't see anything or anyone for that matter. I looked over at her. "So what is going on with this world?" I asked her. She doesn't say anything for a moment.

"To be honest? I'm not exactly sure but from the looks of it? The world we live on now isn't holding up very well. We think this world is dying," she said. I felt my heart stop as she tells me this.

But why should my heart be stopping by this news? Didn't I just tell her that I didn't believe that this world was real? So why should it matter now on what happens to it or not? After all its caused me nothing but painful reminders on what I had and what I should have had.

So why should I care now? When it's not done anything good for me but make me hate myself and the person that caused me pain and grief. I try to convince myself of all of this and it doesn't seem to work. I believe deep down rather I want to admit to it or not a part of me wishes that this place was real.

Sure it caused me pain and nothing but painful reminders but maybe I dream of this place for a reason. I'm not much of a person that believes in dimensions and stupid shit like that. But here I am in a place that shows me things that most people wouldn't be able to see or experience.

I couldn't help but look around until I felt someone tap me on the shoulder. I turn around and I look to see that. The girl was trying to get my attention. "Hey don't zone out on me now I still need you. Plus don't stop we need to keep going. Do you want to see what I am going to show you or not?" she asked me. 

I nodded my head and I go back to following her again. Finally after a long while of walking we finally get to the place and when I saw what it was my eyes grew really big. I never seen this place before and I look over at the girl. "What is this place? Are we still a part of this place? Or did we end up somewhere new?" I asked her. 

She doesn't say anything she just looks at me studying me for a moment and then smiles big. "why don't we walk inside and find out?" she said to me. I puffed out my cheeks and I shrugged my shoulders and walks inside of the place with her. At first it was just her and I and we were in a building that had nothing and no one in it. 

Then when we walked inside that's when things start to show up in the room along with people. I stop moving and I tense up expecting people moving and touching me. But no one does. It's as if I wasn't there at all.

The girl looked at me and rolled her eyes at me. As if she expected me to do that. I didn't realize why she did until I saw the scene right before me play out. I was in shock it was a memory. I was expecting it to belong to me like all the others.

But it shocks me when I realized that it was her memories and not mines after all. I stood back and I watched what happens plays out right before my eyes. At first everything looked normal. She was walking down the street and people were passing by her.

She kept walking fast and kept looking behind her. As if she expected someone to be behind her or following her. But when it looked like no one was she stopped looking behind herself. She started to walk faster until she gets to a building.

She looks up and shields her eyes from the sun and she shook her head before walking into the building. She didn't realize that someone was in front of her until she ran into them. They both fall down on the ground from the impact.

She didn't realize that she was walking so fast until her and the other person hits the floor. She gets up quickly and helps the other person up she ends up blushing. For it was a guy that she ran into. "I'm so sorry! I wasn't paying attention to where I was going," she said.

The guy just smiles and looks up at her. "Its all good don't sweat it I wasn't paying attention to where I was going either," he said. She blushes and looks away. She was just about to walk away when she stops and looks at him. "My name is Ruby it's nice to meet you," she says to him.

He smiles really big before he says something back to her. "I'm Josh it's nice to meet you as well. I would love to stay and chat but I have to go. I hope I will get to see you again some time. Hopefully it won't be on the floor again," he said laughing. The other Ruby blushes more and then walks away. The other Ruby keeps looking after him.
