I had the best dream ever, a dream where everything is normal, my family members were by my side, my 10 year old pupper Olive rolling in the mud under the warm, summer sun, the smell of flowers and freshly cut grass.

It wasn't exactly the most perfect life, but it's the life I would do anything in exchange for that.

I was brought back to the cruel reality as I felt someone lightly tapping on my face.

I summoned all the remaining energy in my body to force open my swollen eyes and a silhouette of a girl came into view. As my eyes slowly adjust to the dark surrounding, I'm able to see that person in front of me more clearly now. She's about my age, her locks pulled into a bun on top of her head neatly, black frame glasses and unlike Ms.Venable, she's in a grey dress.

"Hey, I was sent to clean you up and send you to your room" She says softly as she wraps a blanket around my body and attempts to help me stand. I screamed in agony as soon as she tries to lift me by grabbing both my arms, causing the fabric to rub against my skin. Seeing two dark patches slowly form and expand on the cloth around my arms, the girl jumps back and looks at me apologetically.

"I-I'm sorry, he-here, why don't you hold onto me and use me as a support instead?" She crouched down to my level, waiting for me to comply.

I looked at her and somehow saw fear in her eyes. It is almost as if she's afraid that if she does not get the job done or if she were to just look at me for more than she should, she'll end up in my position which really piqued my curiosity.

With her help, I finally got onto my two feet. I groaned with every step I make, dragging my sore body to the bathroom with the support of the girl.

The girl helped me into the showers and told me she would wait outside.

Just when I thought making my way to the bathroom was suffering enough, the cold water hitting my back was a hell on its own. Now, fully awake, I showered as fast as I could to prevent lengthening the torture. I grabbed a tower and wrapped myself in it before knocking on the door to notify the girl that I was done showering. She enters the bathroom once again, this time with few sets of clothing in her hand and they were all blue. Midnight blue to be exact. How strange.

I spotted a blue sleeping robe from the stack and immediately opted for that as I wouldn't want to wear the other dresses which looks as uncomfortable as they seem. Instead, with all the fresh wounds on my skin, it would be wise to go for the robe.
