I woke up in a very dark place that I don't recognize where it is... I tried to call for someone but no one answering me. I tried so many times but still no luck.
I can't see my surroundings, I can't find someone, No one answering my calls. I've gradually become scared. I started to feel my whole body trembling and suddenly I heard a faint voice saying to walk.
I don't where it came from but I started to walk just like it said. I walk and walk and walk in this place even though I don't know where I'm heading at. I don't know how many hours or days have passed since I started to move my feet but I still continued to walk in this dark place...
After walking for a long time, I saw a faint light and I tried to pursue it. I run and run but strangely I don't get tired. I've been pursuing the faint light for a little while now and little by little I can see that the faint light is growing bigger.
I almost reach it when suddenly the whole place was brightened by the growing light that I've been chasing and the next thing happened I woke up again.
I wake up but I can't seem to move my body freely. I tried to open my mouth to speak but I can't say anything. I can make a little noise with my mouth but just a noise is coming out. I don't remember my name, where I came from or what happened to me. When I think about it, when I'm in that dark place I don't remember anything too.
The thing I can see after waking up is a figure of a man and a woman who's so happy looking at me. I questioned myself "Why are they so happy looking at me?".
I once again tried to move my hand but it was so small that It can't even hold a thing. The woman tried to lift me up and then face the mirror from these room, that is when I saw my whole body. I have a body of a baby. That's why I can't say anything or move my own body properly.
Although I don't have a memories of who I am or why I manage to get here. All I know is that even though I have a body of a baby I can think just like a grown human. The woman that I saw when I woke up and I'm in her amrs now, is probably the one who gave birth to me.
4 years have passed and now I can walk but it's still pretty hard because of my unbalancedness.
One time my mother, father and I go to a open field at the back of our own house. They let me practice my Walking there, they put me down and let me walk by myself. As I'm walking, they were at my back standing and looking at me with a cheerful eyes but that smile changed by sadness in a split second because after a few steps I made, I slip and my head hit the stone that is sticking at the ground. After that I lose my conciousness while seeing my parents shocked of what happened.
My parents rushed to help me and they were panicking on what to do because they saw a blood on my head. My father immediately called for a doctor to treat me while my mother giving me a first aid.
When I woke up, I'm in the vast empty place again like before when I woke up 4 years ago. I have a body of a 15 year old here, I have a long arm and long leg, I look at my whole body and it looks so frail like in just one hit of a punch, I'll break instantly. The difference in this vast empty is the surrounding is all white unlike before that the surrounding is all black.
For some reason I can see my mother and father and me in my room and the doctor who's treating my wound in the head. I can see my parents sad expressions through this mysterious projection I'm seeing in front of me, the two of them crying because of the incident. They were Probably thinking that it was their fault for what happened to me.
The doctor finish the treatment after one and a half hour, she said something to my parents and they calmed down then grab my hand with a teary eyes. I can see a smile of relief on their faces after the doctor spoke to them.
