a dream. . .

huh, i haven't had any dreams since i came here. wonder what changed.

i sat up and looked at my surroundings. they're all the same, nothing changed at all. that's good.

it was still a dark, so i assumed that it was probably midnight. i groaned.

' what a weird dream. . . wonder what it meant ', i thought.

i shook my head. i got out of bed and decided to get some water.

even though i was afraid of the dark, i forced myself outside my room.

walking in the hallways was really relaxing, although, i can't the image or my nightmare out my mind. i really need to distract myself from this.

i found myself downstairs, getting a glass of water. as i filled the cup, i heard a thud in the distance. i looked over my shoulder, nothing in sight.

i sighed, thinking it was just my imagination. i chugged the water all the way and put it in the sink.

' going out for some fresh air won't hurt right? ', i thought as i walked to the doors of the orphanage.

i opened the doors and stepped outside. it was a little windy and it wasn't that cold outside. the wind passing through my hair felt relaxing, it almost made me forget the nightmare.

keyword: almost.

i felt something grip my shoulders and whisper something that i couldn't comprehend. the grip on my shoulders suddenly went to my neck, it didn't choke me, it was just. . there.

i stood still, i couldn't move from all the fear i felt. as a few seconds pass by, i calmed down and had the courage to look behind me.

i turned my head.

nothing was there. what happened? wasn't it holding my neck? was it a hallucination? why'd it disappear?

is this another dream? is what triggered me.

i woke up in a cold sweat, sitting up while panting for air. what's happening? i didn't know what to do but just sit there.

i studied my surroundings and it seems fine everything was in place and it was day.

nothing can go wrong now right?

.

.

.

.

wrong.

i saw on my desk, the same sketchbook that started this nightmare. i didn't bother to take it or touch it.

i chose to avoid it.

i hastily walked out my room to find the trio or maybe mama.

' mama isn't a bad person, she's just misunderstood. she also doesn't have a choice anyway, what's the harm in appreciating her? ', i thought.

i sighed as i finally reached the dining room. although, there was no one there. now that i pay attention to my surroundings, it was quiet.

no noise, not even in the background. it was just silence. my ears suddenly started to ring.

it went to a point where it hurt my ears so i had to cover my ears, thinking it would do something, but it didn't.

nothing worked at all.

was this another dream?- no, another nightmare? possibly. will i ever get out of this loop? probably not.

when will be the end of this? i don't know.

finally, the ringing stopped. i looked at my surroundings, it changed. now i was just in a pitch black area.

it wasn't dark, nor was it light. it was just there. i had this feeling that i couldn't explain. emptiness? no, that's not it.

nothing. i felt nothing, but at the same time, i feel something.

it feels like i'm going crazy. i probably am at this point. . .

suddenly, a light shone above me. i looked up, it didn't hurt my eyes, nor did it feel hot.

my eyes were squinting, trying to figure out what was beyond the light that i see. i sighed, giving up.

i sat down, but it felt like i was sitting on nothing. the place i was in was never ending. i was tired of this.

a force then proceeded to pull me further down into the darkness. not like i cared anymore, it's not like i can do anything.

i closed my eyes and let this force pull me into whatever it pleased.

it's been a few minutes, i finally landed on a soft but solid surface. was i finally awake?

i opened my eyes to see the trio and mama looking worried.

' is this real life? ', i thought.

i couldn't believe it. i was finally out of that tiring loop.

i sighed happily.

"hey guys, mama, i'm finally awake.", i said, smiling wide.

they smiled at me and the trio immediately crushed me into a hug.

"you worried us!!", Emma said.

"i can't believe your awake.", Ray muttered.

"we've been waiting for so long!", Norman said.

i sweatdropped.

' was i really asleep for THAT long? ', i thought.

"i'm sorry i worried you guys, but don't worry! i'm awake now.", i exclaimed, not needing for them to be worried for me.

mama smiled at the right of the four of us, talking to eachother happily. after all,

.

.

this was all she wanted.
