I Dreamt of Hope

Chapter 8

Although I had my eye covered and everything was dark, when I fell asleep It felt like another kind of darkness. At first, I could still feel what was going on and my hair was being gently brushed to the other side of my head. I seemed so small, I turned around to figure out what to do confused I called out into the darkness.

 "Hello?" It echoed through the darkness, a smirk felt like it crept on my face, seeing as I was alone and feeling at peace. Well, for a moment at least. 

"Yes? Did you call?" Rang swiftly through the darkness. I was petrified. I knew I was asleep, and it was doubtable I could be hearing things from the Dr. I stood there trying to assisted where the voice came from, I turned my whole body in a 180 but it didn't seem like I moved an inch the darkness all looked the same. 

"Calm down it's okay, I'm not here to hurt you, you just don't remember," 

I was in nothing but shock. "Who the hell are you?" I yelled. 

Nothing but silence fell over the place, everything was turning a lighter shade of black, silhouettes where being formed. A park bench with a small patch of green grass growing by it. I walked over, it felt nice I was in the light this time. I could see what was around me, I was in my element. I blinked, it was the slowest blink of my life, when my eyelid rose up I could see a figure walking towards me. He cocked his head as he entered into the lighten space. Somehow his face looked familiar like I've known him forever but I had no memories of him. I was speechless as he came closer. A slight sweet smile made my muscles feel week. "Rosey," he said softly.

 "Is... Is that me?" I asked, seeing as he must know me. He stepped closer. 

"No, it's just the color of your cheeks." Why this mattered I didn't know. 

"Am I dreaming?" I asked bluntly. He chuckled. 

"If you mean by me being here then, no. But yes you are dreaming," he said seeming charming.

Confusion swept over me as my own mind wouldn't let me understand what was going on. 

"There is a lot to take in and explain, but as for now. What would you like to do?" He asked. 

"What do you mean?" I asked. 

A smirk was obviously shown to be a sign that I've been here before. 

"I realize you don't remember, but would you like to do some of the things you did a long time ago?" He asked. 

I searched my mind for questions. "Will you tell me how I'm talking to you and what's going on?" I questioned. 

"But of course." He said walking back into the darkness as he walked each footprint seemed to be leaving a trail of gold light, like a path for me to follow in the darkness. I realized as they started to fade I should start my own journey to follow him.
