One Day You Will Look Back And Laugh

Chapter 7

Ugh.

What time is it?

I need to get up now.

But I don't want to.

I have classes.

Yeah and a massive headache with body cramps all over.

I have to submit my assignment today.

Oh, yeah.

I wasted so much of my time to finish it. I stayed up till 3 a.m. for three nights.

Okay, Okay. Let's get up.

I felt my consciousness return to me as I opened my eyes slowly. It took a couple of minutes for my eyes to begin to focus but my ears were alert immediately. I heard beeping sounds, as well as soft murmuring of people around me. Though I couldn't make out what they were saying I wasn't alarmed, I was used to hearing voices when I wake up. They disappeared once I was fully awake but not this time.

Once my eyes adjusted the first thing I noticed was the white ceiling.

Strange. My dorm ceiling isn't white.

I turned my head a little and saw a blood bag as well an IV Drip. Following the 'wires' I saw that they were inserted with a needle into my wrist. Looking around again I saw a heart monitor on my left along with some other medical tools.

I think I am in a hospital.

The unsettling part wasn't that I was probably in the hospital, it was that the voices were still surrounding me. I tried tuning my ears to try and make out what they were saying.

Hello, miss.

She is awake, isn't she?

I tried to prop myself up but then felt a hand grab my arm. I screamed and pulled my hand away shouting, "Whos there ?!?"

Miss? Hello?

Did she become blind?

No, I think she can clearly see.

Then why does it seem like she can't see us?

She looks so scared.

MISS!!

What's going on?

The voices were all around me I could hear what they were saying now. They can see me. But it appears I can't see them.

How is that even possible?!

My breathing was getting erratic. I had no idea what was going on. Well, not that I ever knew what was going on before, I was just used to so many unusual things that when some things happen out of the ordinary I am not as affected.

But this is scary.

Did I die?

If I did does that mean that I can't turn in my assignment?

Man, I worked so hard on it too.

Stop it. I have to find out what is wrong with me. The voices were still talking though now I wasn't able to decipher what they were saying.

I felt like my heart was beating a mile a minute but when I looked at the Heart Monitor it looked like it was slowing down.

I felt everything start to get hazy and fuzzy.

I guess this is it.

I gathered my energy and said, as loudly as I could, "Help!" Though it came out as more of a loud whisper the voices stopped and I heard footsteps running around the room along with things being picked up and moved.
