Two Sides Of Tova.

Two

     Back at the hotel room, I locked myself in the bathroom and began to clean the bracelet with a dry towel, I heard a knock on the door.
      "Are you okay in there? ", Dora asked from the other side of the door.
   "I'm fine, just don't worry ",
   "Okay I'm going to get some provisions for our flight home, take care",
     "Okay".
   I heard the door shut, then I came out of the bathroom. This bracelet is mysterious looking, there was carvings and markings on each side along with a neatly cut circled topaz embedded at the centre bracelet.
  "Hmm don't you look beautiful", I said while studying it on my wrist. I moved to the full length mirror to admire my new jewelry.
'I can't wait to show this to Anna', I thought.
I sighed.
      While trying to adjust my glasses, I stared closely at my reflection and noticed something strange. Red veins began to protrude from my head and make its way to my face, attaching itself to my eyes, mouth, ear , nose and also it appeared on my skin also.
I staggered backwards in horror as I felt an unfamiliar presence wrapping itself around me. I couldn't see anything but I felt it make its way up my legs, then my hips and then my waist. I tried reaching for my phone to call Dora but it was of no use, I was held bound to where I stood.  
   The strange presence covered my whole body, it was as if the whole world stopped moving for a moment. I was oblivious to everything, the T.V, the sounds around me. I felt myself falling to the ground, that same presence was urging me to succumb to unconsciousness and everything felt peaceful as I closed my eyes.

     Slowly, I opened my eyes to hear beeping from my side, I turned and saw a heart monitor. I looked around and found myself in a hospital gown wrapped underneath white linen sheets.
 
   Then I  heard noises, in came Dora and a doctor, her eyes were blotched with tears and there were bags under her eyes. As they stepped into the room, she saw me and immediately ran and engulfed me in a deep hug. I patted her back in return, she pulled out of my arms and slapped me at the back of my head,
  "Oww",
"That's for me coming home and finding you lifeless on the floor", she said tearfully and then she hugged me again.
    "What happened", I asked.
"Your heart stopped at estimated 15 minutes before your sister brought you here" the doctor replied with heavy accent. "You have been comatose for 3 days now", he added.
     
      "THREE DAYS", I shrieked.

"But you're okay now, just a few examinations and you'll be out of here in no time", the doctor pitched in and left.
  "You made me worry so badly,don't you ever do that okay", she said.
"We'll all die someday; but don't worry I'm still much younger and stronger than you are. Why don't you go to sleep I'll be okay", I said teased looking concerned.
"Okay", she layed down on the couch which was by my side.
Whatever happened was no ordinary thing and its got to do with the mysterious bracelet.
'Where is it anyway ?'
