A/N: At first this chapter takes place in Zoey's dream for the most part. Anyways enjoy 😊

(In dream)

I was in a white room not another soul to be seen. As I walked around, touching the wall as it moved once I touched it. The walls closing in and melting.

I didn't know where else to go so I curled up into a ball praying that I wouldn't be crushed by the walls. The room going dark, lifting my head up seeing a glimpse of light as I try running to it, just barely reaching it. A voice rang throughout the room,

"Zoey you've come to see me finally."

That voice I've heard it somewhere else. Yet it seems as if I hadn't heard that voice in so long.

"Come here I want to tell you something important." The voice said.

The voice clearly belonged to a lady, her voice sounding soothing yet at the same time very harsh. I kept walking as she gave me directions on where to go. Once I reached, there a saw a lady in red, her hands reaching out to me but they were blood red like her dress. I then looked up more seeming bloody handprints on her neck, the handprints were big as the neatly wrapped completely around her neck.

Her face was covered so I couldn't see what she looked like. I took a few steps closer to her, her voice is strangled I notice as I get closer and closer to her.
Her smile is of a sad devil, if that's even a thing.

"Oh how sad you don't seem to remember me." She said as her voiced was laced with venom. I mean she is right I don't recognize her but she seems so cold hearted.

"Awe my one and only daughter can't even remember her mother... how... pathetic." She spat.

"That's impossible!" I cried out, "There's no way in hell you're my mother!" I cried out again.

No this cruel looking lady whose stained in red could ever be my mother, she was always so joyful... how could this be the same lady?

"Oh but it is sweetheart. Whether you like it or not I am indeed you're mommy." (Mommy Dearest! Oof that movie was dreadful😖)

I looked at her in horror as I refused to believe that she was my "mother" there's just no way.

"Oh sweetheart believe it I'm your mother and I'm here to get revenge." She said as this sinister smile crossed her features.
I kept walking back as she kept coming closer and closer to me, "What did I do?!" I shouted through my tears. She was about to slap me when her hand stopped mid air. She looked me dead in the eye and it was as if my true mother was here in this moment.

But every good thing must come to an end.

As her genuine loving eyes went dark and her sinister smile came back again, "You made me like this! Your the reason my only loved one turned against me and wanted nothing to do with me anymore! He was perfectly fine with a son! But no! You just had to come along and ruin everything for me! He started cheating on me and getting drunk and I wanted to so many times to confront him but I loved him too much to do so! And it's all because of you!!!!!" And that's when I readied myself for the stinging pain to brace my face but instead there was nothing.

Just a loud slap sound but no pain. I looked up and there Jungkook was, his face turned as he was slapped really hard, he glances back at me and mouths something,

"Wake up!"

I woke up drenched in sweat as I looked around seeing light peaking through the blinds. I saw I was in a bed with an oversized white shirt, seeing Jungkook standing next to the bed with a concerned look, "Hey why're you crying?" He asked.

I didn't realize I was even crying though. I touched my cheek with the tip of my fingers as I felt the wetness of my tears. I jumped from the bed walking to get my clothes, "Where are you going?" I heard him say.

I love him I really do and I know he loves me but I'm just too weak. I can't accept his feelings even if I want to, I know there's someone better out there for him and that girl just isn't me. So I walked over to him, looked at him from head to toe as I studied his features just like he was doing to me.

"What's wrong by sweetheart?" Oh how I wish he hadn't said "sweetheart" that just reminds me of that damn dream.

"You deserve better." And with that I walked out of his room, down the stairs, passing Jeongin ignoring Jungkook's calls as I walked out the house.

I took my phone seeing the screensaver of me with my friends and then it occurred to me. I went in my contacts and called Roxanne.

(On the phone)

"Hello." I heard her voice, feeling safe immediately.

"Hey Roxanne can I come over?" There was a pause but it felt like forever until she replied back.

"Yeah sure!" I let out a deep sigh and we said our goodbyes.

(Off the phone)

I bolted straight towards her house as she already gave me the address.

(Short time skip)

Once I reached her house, ringing the doorbell. It took a while till she finally opened the door but I didn't give her time as I hugged her, tears running down my face but I don't care about that right now.

She brings us into the house bringing us cups of tea to enjoy, "Here some green tea for you." She said with a kind smile as she put the mug on the coaster next to me. As we sit on the floor, she waits patiently for me to start talking. I take a sip of the warm substance as it makes me feel all warm on the inside.

"I just needed to get away... that's all." She nods her head knowing I must not be ready to tell her about what really went down. But as she looks me in the eyes it's like she's staring into my soul and she understands it all in that very moment, "Okay then. I know just what will cheer you up!" She then got up walking away.

I sat there sipping my tea as I stared out the window, it was opened so you could hear everything that was happening in the outside world. The way the leafs were being blown in the wind, how the birds chirped, wind howling.

A minute later she returned with a bag of Funyuns, "This always cheers me up." She said as she sat back down on the floor. Me being the weirdo I am though decided to try and dip a Funyun in my tea, "Your not actually going to eat that are you?" She said with sass laced in her voice. I took a bite and nodded my head "mhm" the flavor tasted odd.

But it was really just a soggy Funyun, no flavor at all, "So?" She asked. I finished the Funyun clapping my hands together to get the crumbs off, "Nothing but a soggy Funyun." She facepalmed herself. As I fell back laughing.

"You're one crazy person you know that?" She asked with laugher, "Well of course I am. After all...

All the best people are crazy!"
