Enchantress

Chapter 1: Calliflaux Academy

       Staring at the white ceiling, there I was. I let out a sigh as I wait for Mrs. Perkins, my therapist, to come out. My parents took me here, they probably thought I was crazy.

"Ms. Evans" the therapist said as she took a sit in front of me. "How are you doing?" She asks with a smile plastered on her face. "I'm doing fine" I replied, returning a weak smile.

"Anything new? Are you still having nightmares? Visions? Hallucination?" Yes, I am. "Nope... I've been having a really good sleep for the past few months" I lied, I know. But if I tell her the truth she'd force me to drink some medicine--that I know for sure will drive me crazy.

"Good, it looks like you won't be needing me anymore.. I knew it from the start that there's nothing wrong with you.. you're just traumatized from the incident." She said as she gave me a reassuring smile. Finally.

I said goodbye to Mrs. Perkins before I left her office and went inside my mom's car. "What did she say sweetie?" She asked as soon as I got inside. "She said I won't be needing her anymore." I said, flatly, staring at the window.

"That's good sweetie. Anyways your father and I talked about your new school" I just nodded and kept my eyes on the window, I don't feel like talking. "You'll be going to Califlaux Academy tomorrow. Your father and I will take you there."

I didn't say anything and let her  continue, there's nothing much to say anyways. "You love to swim right? They have swimming pool, a music room and  a huge library, I've seen and it's really cool I must say  " She said trying to lift my mood up. "Cool" was the only thing I said before the whole ride turns into a deafening silence.

The moment we got home, dad asked some things about my session with the therapist and told me how he was glad to see me doing process. I didn't talk much... after the incident, I don't feel like talking to my parents and anyone around me.

"I'm.. going to my room" I told them and headed upstairs to my room, I just want to get away from the long talk and sleep...

But sometimes... I was too afraid to close my eyes.. knowing I'll probably see them again.

As I stare at my phone, my eyes become heavy... and before I knew it darkness took over me.

      "Paige come with me I'll show you something.."  he whispered onto my ears  then extended his hand for me to take. I gladly took it and followed him to god knows where.
