Can't Find My Way [Completed - Short Story]

Chapter 7: Eternal Love (Micah)

I smell someone familiar from afar, I don't know how but I just did. I opened my eyes as soon as the scent went stronger then I felt a peck on my forehead. As I opened my eyes I saw him startled.

"Damn!" He said with great shock written on his beautiful face.

"Is that how you will greet me?" I said while smiling at him.

"I'm sorry, you startled me." He said looking so embarrassed but still cute though.

"Arthur you're," I paused a little then continued "you," I said while staring deeply into his pretty eyes.

I got up and wrapped my arms around him, I can't seem to control myself due to I hugged him tighter than I thought I would.

He laughed a little and hugged me back. "I miss you so much!" he said.

I unwrapped my arms around him and just stared at him for a moment and answered his question "me too" then I heard a voice saying get him. I was so shocked I looked away from him.

"We must go, it's not safe here," he said looking sad and worried, I just nodded, and then we headed out.

As we headed out I noticed that Arthur was kind of agitated, he keeps on looking around like he's looking for something or perhaps someone.

"He's wondering where the ghost went, not knowing that they were scared of us!" said that voice again then laugh as her voice fades away.

I looked at him feeling a little bit worried then he looked back at me and smiled reassuringly. He told me about what happened to him while I'm still in a coma, he said that he started to remember everything when I got shot and he heard the loud and deafening sound of the gun.

Then after he told me that I felt numb and floating, I tried to move to look at myself but my body seems to move on its own. I felt nervous, I wanted to scream but I can't use my mouth.

Then I heard that voice again but it's louder than before.

"It's no use, Micah, I own you, now," said the voice in my head then continued "there's no use in fighting just watch me while I succumb to everything then Arthur."

"Who are you?"

"I'm you, but the stronger version! So you may call me Mica," she said then laughs.

I don't know what to do, I tried everything to control my own body but it resisted my orders. Arthur didn't notice that I'm not me anymore but who would?

Arthur kept on sharing his experiences with the other me and me, he told us about a tribe that helped him a lot. Mica just kept on listening but feels more interested in the tribe than in Arthur.

"Will you take me there?" asked Mica to Arthur.

I want to stop her from what she's doing but I'm not strong enough to fight myself. It sucks watching yourself doing things that you don't want to do.

Mica tried everything to make Arthur out of focus; she flirts and used her charisma on Arthur, she links her arm around Arthur's arm and, every now and then she looks at Arthur's beautiful eyes.

I can see Arthur getting nervous around Mica as time flies by then something felt different around the area; Mica tightens her grip around Arthur and then stops.

I heard footsteps not far from us.

"Who's there?! Show yourself!" said Arthur courageously while looking around.

"I'm scared, Arthur," said Mica with her voice trembling; I want to punch this b*tch!

Arthur glanced at me or should I say, Mica.
