my eyes fluttered open as i saw lilliana hovering over my body and kissing my forehead.

"baby," i breathed out as i ran to her and wanted to hug her but my hand just passed through her.

"lilz?" i said in disbelief as i shouted her name but she walked away.

is this real?

i walked around the hospital as i panicked and tried to gain some attention but nobody could see me.

lilz was in the lounge area, eating a cup of ice cream as she read a book as she slouched over in the loveseat. i took a seat beside her and i stared at her with love.

i miss her so much.

"i miss you lilz," i sighed as i tried to stroke her cheek but once again, my hand just passed through.

"fuck!" i cussed out as i shot up in anger and frustration.

every single second that passed, i craved everything more.

this was a weird feeling. it was as if i wasn't alive. it was as if i was in heaven but my body was right there in ward 237.

i didn't feel hungry nor full, tired nor energetic. i was just neutral.

lilliana's eyes started watering when i turned back to see her scrolling through her photo gallery on her phone to see her looking at photos we took on the beach party.

"baby don't cry, i hate seeing you cry," i whispered as i knelt in front of her and attempted to wipe those tears away and i hugged her with all my heart but she couldn't feel anything.

this sucks.

i tried to leave the hospital but i couldn't. it was as if i'm trapped in my own body.

it has been five days of strolling around this cold, eerie hospital and i saw all that was happening.

suddenly, i felt a surge of energy pulling me back to my body. i fought the energy as i screamed as it hurt more and more.
