A/N: This is a random-and-anime-like-short-story so it is a bit messy.

.... ... .. .

Her eyes were widened.

Yes, she was in a state of shock.

Flames reflected in her eyes.

That's right, a fire.

She was in a place that was full of fire and dead bodies.

Blood in her face, she didn't know what to do, her body was trembling in fear.

She could barely breathe, and if she didn't leave that place now.

She would join the dead people before her.

Her vision was getting blurry.

Her body was getting heavy.

And there was a thug sound.

.... ... .. .

She slowly opened her eyes. She has bandages all over her body. She looked around. The view was not familiar. "Where am I?" She asked herself. She was still half-awake. She doesn't have enough energy to stand so she just laid down in the bed. Suddenly, a good-looking young man entered the room.

"Are you okay now? Young lady?" He asked in a soft voice while slowly walking towards her. She can see how worried the young man is, she can see it in his eyes.

"Looks like you still haven't regain your strength." The man just gently patted her head and after a while, he left.

She just watched him leave the place.

.... ... .. .

The man came back with foods with him.

"Here, eat this. You have to regain your energy." The young man gently put the plate of foods on the small table beside the bed. The girl slowly sat in the bed like a sick person. She lowered her eyes and looked down.

"...Why...?" The girl finally spoke with a cracking voice. He suddenly looked at her with confusion on his face.

"...am I... alive?" She continued without looking at the man.

The man narrowed his eyes then spoke.

"So 'it' is true..." The girl shifted his gaze at him, confused.

"Huh..?" She uttered.

"That time and day, I was glad that there was a person that was still alive, I was really relieved that even one person survived, and it was you." The girl was just staring at him. Emotionless.

"Can you recall what happened that day?" The man continued.

"That.. day..." She said. She raised her head slowly and stared at the ceiling, trying to remember something.

.... ... .. .

She couldn't really recall everything that day because it just happened in a flash. She just remembered that she was lying down on the floor with a numb and wounded body, the dead people, fire and a young girl that was looking down on her. A girl. Who was that girl? That girl was holding something in her right hand and bloods stained on her clothes. She has cold eyes as if she hates everything she see. They were staring at each other that day until the girl disappeared in the blazing fire.

.... ... .. .

"A.. girl.." She suddenly said after recalling what happened that day. Her body started to tremble and her eyes widened in fear. She was scared. She just embraced herself.

The man got confused, at the same time, worried.

"A girl? What do you mean? Is she still alive? Where is she now?" The man asked in curiosity.

... She didn't speak. Her lips was trembling, she couldn't speak.

"I think this is not the time to talk about that, sorry to asked you, you have to rest, and don't overdo yourself." The girl just nodded, her face was blank.

"And don't forget to eat your food, okay?" The man said with a smile on his face then left the room once again.

The girl just stared in nothing.
