The waking

Melissa's POV

"Argh!" I cried out, my eyes flung open as I sat up on the bed, my eyes scanning around as I breathed heavily.

The door of the room burst open and Anabelle rushed in.

"Melissa" she let out coming towards me as the fear in my eyes was so obvious, my lips trembled greatly.

Anabelle held my hand only for her to stand in shock, "You are freezing!" She shouted I'm disbelief, immediately, she took the blanket next to me and wrapped it around me as I shivered with trembling lips.

"Why are you so cold Melissa?" Anabelle inquired really confused.

"When I left a minute ago, you were alright only for me to hear your scream down the hallway which had me rushing back in." Concern was buried in her voice as she spoke.

I glanced up at her but at that moment, all I could see was the face of the woman at the river staring right back at me.

"Melissa, are you alright?" Anabelle quickly asked.

I came back into reality and shook my head not saying a word, my lips still trembling really hard.
