Torned Pages

Chapter 5

CHAPTER 5: I'M ALIVE ?

HANNAH

I closed my eyes tightly wishing to never open it again. And suddenly I felt breathing freely even though I know I hanged myself so I decided to open my eyes to see what is actually happening why can I breathe perfectly. Slowly, I opened my eyes and found out that I'm not in my room anymore. It is a dark room. And its abosolutely empty. " Hello? Is anybody here? " I asked full of curiousity. Im shivering even if its not cold here. I'm scared. I sat down crying. I hugged my knees. I don't know what is happening. Its hopeless now.

Suddenly I heard a voice. " Hannah my baby. " Its sweet as an angel's voice. I looked up and found a bright light. I cried more and more when I saw his face. I stood up and ran into him yet his so far. The last thing I saw him do is nod his head and smiled. The sweetest smile I've ever seen. And I ran so fast to hug him but he disappeared. I ran out of breath. "Help. Max." I said and suddenly I am gasping for more air. And I fell to the cold ground. I thought it was hard but its kinda soft.

I feel someone is giving me air. I can feel the softness and warmth of his lips pressing against mine with liitle blows of air that somehow tickles ne. And without hesitation I opened my eyes and sit up gasping
for more fresh air.

So he opened my dorr just by kicking it? I can't believe how strong he is. Now he's laying at my bed his eyes are closed. So I stared at him for a while before speak.

"Who are you ? And why did you stop me from dying?" I asked. Yet he just managed to open his eyes and looked at me. Specially my eyes. I don't know why, but I also wanted to stare at him. His deep blue eyes that will bring you to the deep blue ocean and when you stare at it , it feels like being sucked to the ocean floor and being drowned to death.  I closed my eyes to avoid being sucked in his eyes. I took a deep breath and shouted at him loudly without hesitation.

"I said who are you?!!! Why did you stop me from dying ?!!" I said forcefully pointing emphasis in every word.

Then I felt that tears are coming out of my eyes and I dont know why but I felt relieved that I didnt die. He slowly sit up beside me and muttered the words I'm waiting to know.

"My name is Axel Miller. And like what I've said earlier  I will glue your torned pages. I will fix your broken heart.  So I stopped you from dying because I promised you that I will be the character to fix you." He said calmly with a husky voice maybe because of not fine breathing. I looked at him in the eyes. He's sincere.

I felt that the ice in my heart melted by his warm blue eyes, the walls I built to block everyone broke down by his sincerity and my heart that was stone last 2 months ago became soft again because of his presence.

Then he smiled. A warm smile that melts me. A smile that looks like Max's sweet smile a moment before I was revived.

With no hesitations, I hugged him tightly. My hands in his back gripping on his shirt and my face was on his muscular chest. I don't know why I hugged him but I did. Maybe because of how he understands me. Of how he saved me and glued my torned pages. And maybe for how he reminds me of Max.

He was stuck on his position yet he hugged me back more tightly. I can feel his warm hands around me. He pat my head and combed my hair with his fingers. I can't help but to cry more so I buried my face into his chest and wiping my teas away with his shirt. Max always do what he does right now.

After a few moments, I finally escaped his tight grip of me and I faced him. He placed his big hands in my eyes and wiped my tears away. And I started talking.

"Then if your a new character in my own story......" I said while looking at my hands.

I saw him looked at me in my peripheral vision and then he replied.

"Then?" he said full of curiousity to know what I am gonna say next.

"Please make my story Happier." I said and after the word happier, my eyes filled with tears of happiness. And I smiled brightly.

"Im not the author of your story. But I promise I will make you happy even if its not in the story. " he said.

He again wiped my tears away with his thumb and oat my head.

"Get up fix yourself I will go down stairs." He stood up and walked to the door.

"Why?" I asked.

"We will go somewhere."
He said smiling brightly.

"Why?" I asked again like a little child full of questions about the world.

"To glue your torned pages and make new beautiful chapters of your book."

I smiled again.

Since 2 months after that day I didnt smile but from what he said it made me smile again.

Maybe...

He will play a big part in the new chapters of my story.....

Because of him I lived. And maybe also because of him, I will be alive again.
