'NO!' I woke up sweating and screaming.Another nightmare.
I had them ever since my parents died.I would wake up every morning screaming like crazy.It was always the same scene : Me,standing next to their crushed car.They are laying on the ground surrounded by blood and all the broken glass from the car.They are calling for help with their last breaths.It breaks my heart to see them hurt like this.At some point they look me in the eyes and their desperate look says it all : Help us.I can't move.I am just standing there and watching the whole scene.My mother looks at my father and slowly moves her hand to his.As they hands touch she whispers to him one quiet 'I love you..' and he whispers it back.He gently squeezes her hand and they both give up on their lives.I am still standing there and watching everything.I am sobbing and crying,begging them to come back.Then I look to the other side and see my brother and sister in the pool of blood.It looks like they are struggling too.I run to them.I see Danielle crying and holding Alen's hand. ''Please don't go.Wait for me Alen..'' she says while crying.I look to Alen's side and see that he is not breathing.He is dead too.Then Danielle starts spitting blood everywhere.It goes on for a few minutes until she gives up too.At the end,I stay completely alone.
I shiver at the thought of that nightmare.It is the same scene every night.I wish it could just stop.Sometimes it confuses me.Why are my siblings there too and why are they dying too? Maybe it is just my fear of staying completely alone that causes these nightmares.I get out of bed and go take a long shower.Long showers were my favorites.After them I would always feel peaceful and comfortable.I stood for like 15 minutes in front of my closet deciding what should I wear.I decided to wear a white shirt and black skirt.I worked at this fancy company and I always had to be classy for my job.I worked there as an assistant.It wasn't always lovely there because my boss was an asshole and I didn't like working there but I had to.The only reason why I kept quiet there were my siblings.I knew that they need me to help them.
I went downstairs to the kitchen.Alen and Danielle were sitting at the table and eating their breakfast. ''Morning sis!'' Danielle said cheerful.I never understood her how cheerful can she be in the morning. ''Good morning honey.Did you sleep well?'' I asked her and she just nodded her head because she didn't have time to speak.She had her mouth full of food. ''But you haven't slept well Mia,huh? You woke up screaming again.We heard you.'' my brother said.He loved to make jokes about my nightmares. ''Alen,please stop.You know I don't like it when you joke about this with me.This is a serious problem.'' I said annoyed. He apologized to me. ''Yeah,I know,I'm sorry. But it's getting disturbing you know? Hearing you screaming all the time,it's creepy.You need to get help.Or maybe some kind of a distraction.Go out,meet someone,you know?'' Of course,what else could I expect to hear from him.He wanted me to find a boyfriend more than I wanted that. ''Yeah sure,just shut up and get ready to go on training,you'll be late.'' I said.He got up and took his bag.Danielle went with him.She loved soccer and those kind of guy things.That's probably because she was so close with Alen.I looked at the clock and saw that I'll be late for work.Great,you are starting your week awesome Mia.I quickly took my bag and keys and ran out of house.
