I finally remember.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWdUwOB6aG
My eyes quickly flew 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgfrZbTLWE
open as a sudden sense of familiarity came over me. I was at the school 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYAMLssVCP
clinic and as I sat up on the bed, I realised that the ward was empty. 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX79oN7T7Hs
The white coloured walls greeted me with warmth as the sun rays 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EQnuilDRR
reflecting through the windows gave the room a wonderful glow. As I took794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRR67utJuea
in the warmth, everything came back to me. I had fainted in the 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCYBywrg96
orchard. That wasn’t the only thing that I remembered. There was a whole794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOR3JjJ7kS6
lot to it than I had realised.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxe6LbutQQ
“I now remember,” I said aloud to the empty ward.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8A7Tpz2Ag
Everything came back to 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qqKcz4bUM
me in flash like it had in the orchard when I saw the mysterious 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0eQ3UnM3O
stranger who was standing behind Amanda. When I had looked at the 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXe9CP0Oi7
stranger, I finally remembered what had happened to me when those images794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGO0bHAReJk
came running into my mind. I now remember what had happened to me 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxwITWtplS
before I woke up this morning. I hated to say this to myself, but 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwD57fIo6I
Christine was right. Something was wrong with me and it had started all 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyRtby2lWo
the way from the time I had failed to wake up this morning until now. As794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ibbQIBTLe
I tried to go through what I could recall from the images that had run 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfNe6WpNWV
into my head earlier, I felt I was hit in the face with a reality check.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8k6dl2wmcX
I had died in my sleep.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjVjeSKaNr
“You didn’t even budge at all. It was like you were dead or something.”794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqP8Viop4UJ
“I was there when 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIIFpkbKa7
Christine tried to wake you up. You didn’t even move an inch. You just 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisS3NtRu33
laid there. And you looked, I don’t know, dead.”794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjmfxEIBvK
I recalled what 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcnKNCiTyK
Christine and Amanda had told me earlier. They were right and what I 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxfX60qCOk
could remember proved it all. I had died in my sleep and as far as I 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6c0t238SH
could remember, only one person knew why. The stranger who came to the 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0nKIR0ocv
orchard was the same person in my dreams. And surprisingly, the same 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eFvaWBZHO
stranger was the one who took my life.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWALwGaj6vK
I closed my eyes and 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqYG7YkDjT
everything became clear as I remembered what had happened to me in my 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqr1sdQVtiU
dreams. Everything around me was empty and dark. I couldn’t even tell if794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoniVM6IpIJ
I was floating in the air in the deep void of nothingness or if I had 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡem0Ovgy3nM
my feet planted to the floor. There was no sign of life, light or any 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ104ung6fDz
object I could feel or grab onto. I was nowhere, in a place where things794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UTd9xgEAO
never existed.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9BdQf7frR
Then, out of nowhere, 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4ZOutol5x
something had appeared right before my eyes, a few feet away from me. 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7EU200UAs
For a moment I couldn’t tell what it was because it was too dark and the794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7crDOJQXM
same object that had appeared before seemed to be covered in a black 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQomGbsXl5
cloth that swirled around as if there was the presence of wind when it 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtnfCai0QL
actually wasn’t there. I adjusted my eyes a little more to see more 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDB35LQCwn
clearly. The object was kind of tall and before I could have realised it794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuefwvAvRU
sooner, the object that stood before me was a human being in a black 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yM7yq5kZI
long cloak. And whoever it was was facing my direction looking at me. I 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgiD4PyTZe8
couldn’t see eyes or even a face underneath the hood; it was dark, dark 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwNHwJu5WJ
as the environment around us. For a moment, it seemed like we were just 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1CcyXI4eK
staring at each other until I got a feeling in me that this person in 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24sp2GVkni
front of me was creeping me out. The air around us started to get cold 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8j6wbBfFGV
and each second that passed became colder and colder. At some point I 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GuVRPe5z7
breathed out air and an icy cold mist escaped from my nostrils. It was 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3GSa14Ydn
definitely getting cold and it felt like I was stuck in a freezer. I 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQloLSiaTMP
started to shiver so violently and when I looked at my hands, they were 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9O5IW2uJB6
icy blue. My hands soon felt numb from the cold, so did my face and legs794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgC1mgqcJgA
too. In a matter of minutes, my body had turned cold and blue. My body 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAStFetpVRF
had become numb with cold and at that moment, my legs gave way and I 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPobKk9LPs
fell to the cold floor which had suddenly turned into a hard cold layer 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoLkDPOyFx
of ice. I tried to move, but I was so still. The nerves in my body 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDBnvlM0Tp
seemed to have frozen up too but it was a wonder how my brain was still 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IwnnpQSXR
functioning because I was completely aware of what was going on and I 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgivKzDowi
could see the stranger in the dark cloak just staring back at me not 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cVlMeNmc3
doing anything to help.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVZAcLlewS
I tried moving my icy 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMRe6BeQzq
blue lips, but it was no use. I couldn’t even feel them. My lungs had 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiph4T3VKzV
stung with pain inside me and I was scared that they were going to stop 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnG9rvWg3g
functioning right there and then. What kept my hopes up was the beating 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoNXHTf0xy
of my heart; though I could hear every heart beat grow faint as the 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAjzmAZiIL
coldness in me took over. I continued to stare at the stranger in front 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡug1syV4qz5
of me, praying that he could do something to help me.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBGq3Z9qku
As though my thoughts 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoXjiobYNk
had finally been heard, the stranger took a step closer towards me. For a794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxlCRR1cbS
moment, I finally felt that everything was going to be alright and I 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYIhIFibrw
was going to be saved. When the stranger had finally come close enough 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgyWOZCnNt
to help, my eyes flew to the hood trying to see if I could see the 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAXZ1viBUc
stranger’s face, but I still couldn’t see a thing. The stranger 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nPCnj5DYn
continued to look down at me and even though I couldn’t see any facial 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvzZZbeEsP
features under the hood, I could feel the stranger’s eyes on me. When I 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWb8ijWxOp
had hoped that the stranger was going to help me, that hope was soon 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJpoz0IMCt
replaced with fear in an instant, even in the frozen state I was in. My 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLo2y8IBXcF
eyes bulged out in fear and I prayed in my heart for at least my nerves 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTPEY44BBh
to kick start again and I would be able to get away from this stranger 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycPjrjsP57
who I didn’t even know.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTB9hBjSyi
As I continued to pray 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHu2Pky7uc1
to myself, the stranger soon knelt to the floor on one knee and the fear794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinsetMiM5s
in me almost ended my fading heart. The stranger quickly stretched out 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6hb7W9nFg
his hand and held my cold neck. I could feel the strong hand grip 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsfvaEjIrg
tightly around my neck and he was choking me out with the little air I 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9j2rNqCBqe
could take in my cold state. When the stranger slowly stood, he was 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qCyn5ccjG
dragging me upwards along with him. We were now staring at each other. I794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmdzQ8lW9e
could still feel the stranger’s gaze on me because it felt like needles794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC16oLOzlWR
were pierced into my eyes. I continued to stare back into the dark void794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bPYkylMeb
under the hood feeling helpless. I wondered what this person was going 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtvWA52rUf
to do to me.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVkSgjaLcR
Soon, a scythe appeared 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdg062hwDNR
out of nowhere and it stood right beside the stranger in mid-air. The 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡed7YHsTwxk
stranger took the scythe in his hand and in an instant, the scythe had 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkSqRVgolh
transformed into a knife. My heart had started to beat faster than it 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cSTxBCeSp
had when I had been frozen. I had to admit that I was scared and I tried794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggKF309ojD
to scream for help, but it was no use. No one was here to help me and 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJ2MCFdAJO
this stranger in front of me seemed to have made up his mind about what 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCyEJ7jAiD
he was going to do with me. At that moment, I prayed that all of what I 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67BIvIPGmh
was going through was just a bad dream.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9TS5vNeT8
I continued to stare at 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvx1478HDA
the stranger in front of me, with a knife in hand. The hand around my 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGArbv29oMG
neck tightened with every defying moment. I thought the stranger would 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUabq7wjIb
have a final say before he drove that knife into me, but there was 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIKQ4fxs04
nothing but silence between us. With all of my might, and with all the 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8ccioACKv
pain and coldness inside of me, I had forced myself to speak:794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkPuIwInyQ
“Plea…..please……do…..don’t do this,” cold mist escaped my lips as I spoke. “What wrong have I done to deserve this?”794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6nDADvSZd
A cold deafening voice 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvswVI3plC
echoed around me from the stranger who had held me captive, it was a 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxlL5tsESt
voice that could have sent anyone running for their lives:794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ERvikSuzj
“Your time has come, Diana. This is your destiny and how it all ends!”794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJd1g2UoIwJ
Before I could say 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7boV4eDjyi
anything else, the knife quickly drove through my chest and I had felt 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMer5UW97PY
the piercing pain. Even though I was frozen I could feel the warm blood 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7TgyTBoWb
flow out of my body and its coppery smell filled the air. I looked down 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmOosYNqIU
on my chest and I saw the red smear of blood staining my shirt. The 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48fS1kf0xn
knife was quickly removed from my chest and the stranger drove it again,794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6DcjYdWzr
this time into my stomach. This time I screamed out in endless pain and794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WVVPuiB6h
my scream echoed around the deep void. The stranger continued to stab 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFIxLyYUTt
me in so many places and I was left in antagonising pain that I 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4BOULlj1C
continued to scream until I reached a point where I couldn’t scream any 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHEFV7Ekv5
longer. I was numb with pain.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoKBG7RYAh
My body soon felt limb 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UqQeo4jLy
and the next thing I knew I was on the floor and didn’t even know how I 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEgTJhz24E
had ended up down there. The stranger continued to look down at me as I 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUPrpnmWZr
was bleeding out to death. I didn’t feel the pain anymore, though I 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJpQfKEOHM
could feel something was living my body slowly. Was it my soul, I had 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEL8xY2kKe
wondered. My vision soon became blurry as images started flashing in my 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfu72MluuXc
mind. Were those my memories of the life I had once lived? At that 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuzPVhVfsX
moment I couldn’t even think or tell what was real and what wasn’t. My 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgQ84RtEta
brain was dying so as the rest of my body. I could really feel myself 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlkXK4jiGP
fading into who knows where.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDEqPMJJKU
The stranger soon turned794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZKU62oINU
away from me with the knife in his hand which was covered in blood, in 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyTJxZ1s9y
my blood. As the stranger walked away, the knife in his hand soon turned794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0LC3zVu4l
back into a scythe and the darkness swallowed the stranger out of 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7YX0vcI16
sight. 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLatT07ThF
And I was left in the darkness, in a pool of my own blood, as I breathed out my last. 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkSZdMQZ3U
“Diana!”794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLEoaV1UWk
My eyes quickly flew 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XnDHQns0w
open and for a moment, I was oblivious of my surrounding. I felt a hand 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6uTpaE0zA
on my shoulder and Christine stood right in front of me with Amanda 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBX7WT8K27K
standing right behind her. They both had worried looks on their faces 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8p1DJZMzr
and I hoped it had nothing to do with me.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiWBOh8q1i
“Why are you looking at me like that?” I asked.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RciuK3bma
“We were wondering if you were alright,” Christine answered.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWS173Q7Od
“I’m fine as you can 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvOHbEYBso
see. There is nothing to worry about,” I tried to sound as normal as 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDfAfEQoTD
possible after what I had just remembered.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gMQTGDmIa
“It doesn’t seem that way to us,” Amanda said. The look on her face made me even more worried than they were.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGf9JREx6u
“What do you mean?” I raised my eyebrow.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAENbQPiea
Amanda and Christine 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJnXZ4mZmd
turned to look at each other, looking concerned. They went back to 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81qGiZ6Xim
looking at me like I had just said something stupid.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrBV7BsgYQ
“Is someone going to tell me what’s up or do I have to play the guess game?” I snapped, growing impatient. 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0qYPFuKVt
“We came into the ward 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHC6nx1Ihx
and saw you seated on the bed with your eyes closed,” said Christine. 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAaMgcWSvm
“When we called out to you, you didn’t respond. When we shook you, you 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFdmHi8tQM
didn’t do anything. You just sat there as though you were deep into 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBZqNerGMz
meditation. But when we touched your skin you were as cold as ice. So we794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduI8fZsGp2
grew worried, calling your name and shaking you, but to no avail. We 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQDF5Ntct6
almost called for the nurse until your eyes flew open.”794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLQiS1dYXO
I sighed out in 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyjV1QyJUp
frustration as I buried my head into my hands. This was not happening. 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhc7EhDuJW
What was going on? I had died this morning but somehow came back to 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYA9Fh9MG4
life. And now, just trying to remember my death made me go into a dead 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRobKBq4jN
state all over again.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJkNIKxZaW
“Hey, are you okay?” Christine asked. “What happened to you?”794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85i5UQwYcw
I looked up at my 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHLvmMODjA
friends as they continued to stare down at me. I wasn’t quite sure 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmNLvBMfaA
whether to tell them that they had been right all along about this 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8iJbLGOlqy
morning or just try to make up some excuse of a story. I finally decided794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6KUC44gph
to tell them the truth. I wasn’t going to bear carrying this secret 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhbvyzhz0F
around with me for long, so I sat upright and took a deep breath.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44eyiULXoM
“Okay, I’ll tell you,” I794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttuJFBFAWI
said, trying to build up my confidence. I closed my eyes and opened 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82op8jitoO
them. And before I could open my mouth to speak, something strange 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOJSmPIbWT
happened.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwPFmlVfwP
A vision of the stranger794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqpTUVdt1n
in my dream had quickly appeared before my eyes. He still wore the same794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5P24ULS5Rh
black cloak and hood. He had a knife in his hand. The same knife he had794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwP3AI7jCE
used to kill me. And it was all covered in blood and he was carrying 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5ba2POccV
something wrapped around his arm. A body all covered in blood.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2NA6MTQf0
Christine’s body!794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujviY4Uquv
Was all of this a sign 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6z3XckFJoq
that I shouldn’t say anything? The vision had appeared out of nowhere, 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjf8iEuRB20
and that meant something. I swallowed hard as I quickly thought of what 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvvvR3vAAx
to say next.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgSDw4kQhu
“I felt like I was 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4cjBNDHe6
coming down with something,” I lied. “I felt a little nauseous and I 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfH7Dr5iOgc
tried sitting up on the bed hoping the feeling would go away.”794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxf31sVL35F
“But we called out to you a thousand times,” Amanda said. “Why didn’t you say anything?”794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPG1KX5HDjk
“I fell asleep,” I answered. “You know sometimes I fall asleep while I sit upright. I do so in class.”794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOh1vx0urc
That was probably the 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TGjM7XgpY
worst lie I have ever uttered in my entire life. I don’t how know how 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1lD1gXtms
those words came out of my mouth, but they did. I continued to look up 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyhUFEmypJ
at my friends and I prayed that they would believe what I had just said.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE65hcEwtw6
I had to admit, what I had said was pretty cheeky. I wasn’t going to be794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAjjwcU9kU
surprised if they didn’t believe me.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eaxKiazlF
“Oh, thank goodness,” said Christine in relief, placing her hand over her chest. “For a moment you had us all worried.”794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcdBKPrI4Z
I quickly raised my left eyebrow. She believed that?794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjYC2tvXrg
“Yes, me too,” said Amanda. “You shouldn’t scare us like that. What happened in the morning was more than enough.”794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivQQywtRT5
“I was just feeling tired and sick, that’s all,” I said, as I pretended to yawn.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fBERRuVlF
“Okay, well the time we 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGZJStmIRr
brought you here to the clinic the doctor attended to you and said 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDl8NIKfbJ
nothing was wrong with you, you just had low blood pressure,” Christine 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbQqAYYfQb
said.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBys2Bws09Z
“I thought I was coming down with malaria,” I said.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKRPe989kA
“Well, I’m just glad 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqybVsHzD5Z
you’re okay. Our dorm mates were really worried about you when you had 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTE9LeFbnS
fainted,” said Amanda. “They will be glad to see that you’re okay.”794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwsG2RKGl4
“Can I leave this place?” I asked, as I stood up from the bed. “I don’t want to stay here for a single second.”794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrC7T0ObZU8
“Whoa, hold on right 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVpyw0MiIN
there!” Christine held my shoulders and pushed me back on the bed. “You 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRsICjSblC
are not going anywhere, my friend. The doctor said so.”794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulx7uaWUrF
“But why? I’m perfectly fine,” I whined.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqp0wueenK
“You need to run through794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsDliYtUMF
some checkups just in case this doesn’t become serious,” said Amanda. 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigS7Ubd51q
“Looks like you have to stay here until tomorrow.” 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUzmmp58KG
Tomorrow! The clinic was794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCUxGIU9Z7
the last place I wanted to stay in, and better yet, all alone without 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5gqGktDlZ
my friends. I soon started to think of the worst. What if the stranger 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1pD5GmqWX
came after me again? And this time, in real life chasing me around the 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQzh7G0lHu
clinic with his deadly scythe? I swallowed hard as I imagined all of 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVg7zVX8Xd
that even happening.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYNnEimHG1
“I can’t stay here,” I continued to protest. “I’m perfectly fine. Tell the doctor to come and check up on me again.”794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYId2Akcwj2
“I don’t see why you’re scared, Diana,” said Amanda. “It’s just for one night only to make sure that you’re okay.”794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3STTGsLnOo
“But all of this is 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpnBrd2BwC
ridiculous. It’s just low blood pressure and you’re acting as though I 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5knKUjg2t
have AIDS,” I was getting rather impatient. “Or is there something 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEIWKlSHwK
you’re not telling me?”794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjp8rFN1tj
“I don’t know, you have 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKOyd2NUpy
to ask the doctor that. He said you can’t go back to school until you’re794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYk91RGBP2V
perfectly fine,” said Christine. “You better ask him why.”794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlIE3uE3a9
“Okay, where is he?” I quickly stood up, getting ready to see the doctor myself.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJSN1m8WCI
“He is busy with other patients at the moment,” said Christine. “You just have to wait and that will be like till evening.”794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rWLbhsT8E
I hate to admit it, but 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjIIL0oYIY
Christine was right. There were a number of patients who came into this 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMA2QyBhyZ
hospital each and every day. And considering this place to be rural 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MD27WRvh2
area, a lot of people were prone to capture some tropical diseases and 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OM8jk4X0t
others. And there weren’t many doctors in the clinic to attend to all 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkseHc10Ag
those in need of treatment. I just had to be considerate enough and give794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6nfpis0Hu
the doctor some time until he checked up on me again. I just sat down 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnof6LV88T
on my bed in defeat.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoToHBGi0h
“Okay, you might have a point,” I said. “I wasn’t even in for a mood for class today, so I might as well just stay here.”794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3Mun5vGje
“Speaking of class, the 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaKo5tjpko
time for our break is almost up. We better leave,” said Amanda. “I don’t794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFoAeYk8Xi
want to be late and end up on the offenders’ list.”794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrmIlKkUpO
“You guys go ahead,” I said. “I will get your books tomorrow and copy the notes.”794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdK1NKT9Y4
“Alright, take care of yourself. We might come back in the evening to say goodnight,” said Christine.794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxM9pdhsHgP
“Okay,” I said dully as I794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JJRYTAzeP
lay down on the bed. It was going to be pretty boring without my 794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcaTF8F20g
friends around and I sighed as they left the room. I was left completely794Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCJnt7zG9M
alone in the ward staring at the blank white ceiling above me.
