The Life Of Sarenda Sitzer(DISCONTINUED)

Chapter 11: Funked Up

Here's the actual chapter. There will be no sudden deaths in this chapter, I promise.

"My mind's tellin me no

But my body... My body's tellin me yes"

-R.Kelly

It was Thursday and I was currently training Ren. Since the incident in Art class, she's been really distant and not responsive when I try to spark a conversation with her. I even tried to make her laugh, but all I got was a twitch of the mouth and an expressionless face. I almost convinced myself to give up on the unresponsive Ren but something kept on urging me to keep on pushing the walls she had built around herself.

As I made her do twenty push-ups, I tried thinking of another way to make her show any type of emotion toward me. Hell, I'll even settle for a look of anger if that means that she'll go back to the old Ren.

"I'm done." Ren pulled herself up from the bed of grass and stood straight like a soldier awaiting a general's command.

"Okay, run five laps around the clearing, then we'll be done for the day." I nodded my head.

"Okay." I groaned internally since I thought that making her run around this humongous clearing would at least make her groan in annoyance. That's it, I'm fed up with being ignored by her! She's going to tell me what in the fuck is wrong with her whether she likes it or not.

"Ren." She stopped running and came over to me with a raised eyebrow at my angry tone.

"Sit." I ordered her while pointing at the bed of flowers a couple of feet away from me.

"Why?" Ren titled her head.

"Just do it." I said through clenched teeth.

"Fine." Ren tried to keep the anger out of her tone, but I could hear it clearly. I gave her a stern look when she sat down with her arms crossed and eyebrow raised.

"What's wrong?" I asked bluntly.

"Nothing." Her eyes averted from my penetrating gaze.

"Yes, there is something wrong if you're acting like a fucking robot around me." I accused while letting my frustration being shown onto my face.There was a long pause before Ren huffed out:

"I'm on my period." Lie.

"Don't fucking lie to my face Ren. Now tell what's really got you acting like you have a rod up your ass?"

"....dream." Ren muttered meekly.

"What was that?" I moved closer since Ren decided to become a mouse.

"The dream." Ren's blue eyes began to water with a unspeakable sadness. My heart twinged with something I haven't felt since Vanessa, guilt. I felt guilty that if I didn't confront Ren, she wouldn't be balling her eyes out. A strong urge to hold her and tell her that everything was going to be fine overcame me and I decided that only this once, I'll follow through that action and comfort her.

"Shh, it's okay," I bent down and brought her into my arms. She willingly fell into them and clung to me as if her life depended on the comfort I provided her.

"I-I w-was walking down an empty hallway a-and I saw two doors; one was on the left and white while the other on the left was black, but in the middle stood a gray door. Big letters appeared in front of me said ,'Only one leads to happiness.' I looked at the black and white doors and I felt a sort of coldness, but when I looked at the gray door, all I felt was warmth and comfort. I decided on the gray door. When I opened the door, I was engulfed by darkness. I was screaming for somebody to help me and to stop the darkness. As if like magic, arms appeared out of nowhere and embraced me. It whispered soothing words and the darkness suddenly gave away to reveal a clearing, this clearing. They pulled out of the hug and I am never able to remember their face, but only intense blue eyes that showed me love and adoration. The person gently cupped my face, but before they could move any closer, a-a figure so dark that they affected the atmosphere around them pulls me away and that's when I wake up. I've been having these dreams s-since..." Ren trailed off and with her fear stricken eyes gazed at me.
