-Streaks, flashes and people passing all blurred together in
one big noise. Then I saw black and suddenly it was quiet.-
I woke up in a hospital beaten and bruised with no idea of
who I was. They told me my name but it didn't seem to fit. I felt out of place
and had no idea what to make of the strangers in the room. I felt like a wave
that has lost the ocean, alone and lost. Who are they? Am I supposed to know
them? Who's the lady in black who's been crying in the corner? So many
questions, none of which I could answer. I adjusted on the cold, unfamiliar bed
ignoring the hand in mine that belonged to the only person who made me feel
safe in the room and let sleep claim me.
I stepped on the floors of the tram drinking my coffee with
a half smile, it made me feel warm inside during the cold winter. I looked
around searching for a handle to hold onto; 'that one by the door? nope. That
bar? nope. YES!' I see an empty
handhold. 'damn it there's a little old woman standing under it, surely Ii
can't push her out of my way just to hold on.. ah..I 'll just try not to fall then.'
With my mood a little disheartened now I try to listen to
the girl next to me talking. But something wrong, I keep glancing towards the streets through the window I have
a bad feeling in my gut. Shaking my head as if to banish my previous thoughts
and force myself to concentrate on the girl and the tall guy talking or just
starring? They both look at me expectantly feeling confused and checking behind
me to make sure that they really ARE looking at ME. Shit, they are... "sorry, you were saying?" the boy
opened his mouth to answer but the vehicle's sudden halt cut him short.
Scared chocolate brown eyes locking into mine in panic is
the last thing I see.
I shot up on the bed, panting heavily, hearing my heart in
my ears. -It's so loud- I clenched my fists and shut my eyes tight -Make it
stop- screams echoed through the room -please, please- it chanted almost like a
prayer looking for god. I bowed my head and as the wails became muffled I
realized that it was me who was making the noise. I willed myself to stop,
trying to keep my mind on the warm hand at the back of my neck making
soothing circles.
I looked at person who was nearest to me, was it their hand
on my neck? I didn't know. But for the second time in a row, I saw brown before
everything disappeared.
I was anxiously
waiting for underground to stop, I looked at the clock on my phone 'Damn
it! I'm so going to be late!' When it was finally standing still I quickly
jumped on, not paying mind to the crowd whatsoever, securing myself next to the
door. It felt like the longest time between the two stations when in reality
all it took was like a minute, a very fucking slow minute. When it was time for
me to get off I hopped off as fast I could and sprinted towards the exit.
I didn't notice brown eyes staring at me intently.
