“Where have you too been?” Daisy questions as we enter the palace.
“Why should we report back to you?” I ask annoyed walking towards the stairs.
“I'm your Queen” she exclaims again.
I pause and turn around to face her “You’re not my Queen, Daisy. And stop being so full of yourself” I tell her and rush to my room. Nella stood there patiently.
‘Why is she so annoying, argh' I ask myself loud as I bang the door behind me.
“Oh, Hey” I hear a voice from the balcony and immediately walk towards I to look at the person.
“What are you doing here?” I question crossing my arms.
“I couldn’t find you around here and your mom let me wait for you here” he says
“Argon, how long have you been waiting?” I ask as I take off my shoes.
“Around two hours” he calculates.
“Its past the witching
“Laura, we’ll attack tonight. Thaddeus will bring Cassius and Eagle to the palace and we can do it” Nella whispers to me as we pass through each other in the eating quarters.“Alright. I’ll be ready” I tell her and walk to the kitchen to grab my food.“Hey, mom” I great as I sit to the right of mom.“Hey, baby. Did you sleep well?” mom questions me and I nod“How are you feeling now?” I ask her.“Much better love” she replies eating the last roll on her plate “Where were you last night?” she questions“I was just strolling through the streets” I smile focusing on my plate.“Did you meet Argon? He wanted to talk to you” mom says“Oh, yes yes. I met him last night” I say recalling that mom was tge one who let him wait in my room.“Alright love. See you later” mom stands up.
Numbness concurs my entirely. I move my fingers first and then slowly moved my legs. It felt good, my body was glad to move. I hear someone speak“Is she alright, Marshall ?” a sweet female voice asked.“Yes but we can only be certain when she regains consciousness” a horse voice replied.“And what about Fiona?” she questioned again.“Let's talk about it outside” I feel the voice fade away.Finally I open my eyes and let the sun rays reach my eyes from the balcony.‘What is this place?’ I question sitting up, looking around the vacant large room.‘Is it a hospital?’ I question myself unsure ‘It’s too grand for a nursing home' I answer my own question.In a second the door swings open and a female in a white floral gown walks in“Laura, Thank heavens your awake darling” she sighs holding his chest; she w
“Laura, wait” I hear Daisy call out as I leave the room. “Yes?” I turn around and ask “Come with me. I’ll tell you the truth” she says and pulls me by my wrist behind her. “Thanks Doctor” I say looking back at him while trying to keep up with Daisy. “Laura, love. Sit down” she says as we enter a large room. I obey and sit on the cushion. “Are you from earth?” I ask finally “No Laura. I’m the queen here” she says “Why are you my aunt then? And who is the woman you told as my mother” I ask “Your mom and I have been the best of friends and just like you, your mom travelled here earlier. We’ve been great friends since then” she says “When can I return?” I ask “There something you need to know before that” she says in a soft tone. “What is it?” I ask curious “You can’t trust anyone here. Especially Nella” “Why? Don’t you both belong to this place?” I question ba
“Laura, have you got everything ready?” Daisy asks grabbing my attention.“Yes, I have” I say looking blank at her“Did something happen, love?” she questions me concerned‘Should I tell her about the voice in my dream?’ I think ‘No, definitely not' my brain responds‘But we need to tell someone so we can figure it out' my heart replies‘But I don’t think that person is her' my gut speaks up.“Its nothing Daisy. Let’s go” I say and hold the door open for her.“I hope everything will go well” she whispers smiling at me.“It will Daisy” I reply. She stares at me for a second and I wonder what did I do wrong. “It will, Queen” I say again and she smiles“Stay here, Laura” she says and walks out of the door while I remain back stage. She approaches the podium and gets onto it adjusting the
'Is anyone here?’ I ask into the darkness but get no reply in return. ‘Its so lame' my brain comments and I feel it too. After minutes of silence and feeling stupid, I open my eyes. ‘It was just a dream' I announce loud banging my hands on the bed. ‘What’s this?’ I ask circling a rectangular figure impression that was formed on the pillow cover. I put my hand into the cover and take out the flexible paper. ‘It’s a card' I declare; it read Dr.Argon Smith Neurologist Millington Speciality Hospital Ph: xxxxx xxxxx M: xxxxx xxxxx ‘What is this card doing in my pillow cover?’ I wonder ‘Do I know him?’ ‘Maybe I do' ‘And maybe he can help me with my memory' ‘Yeah, let’s call him maybe' ‘Nah, let’s visit him. ‘I’ll even get to see who he is' I retaliate and speak to myself in a mixed to
“I would love to Laura but not now” he rotates hid index finger a 360° “and not here” he smiles“Hey. I won’t go on a date with you until I regain all of my memory” I point out standing up and he looks at me furrowing his eyebrows“Fair enough. Laura” he chuckles and stands up “Let’s have lunch together now” he winks“I already had my lunch” I lie“Well it wouldn’t hurt to eat again” he walks around the table and sits on the other consulting chair “What do you want to eat?” He asks“Something edible” I comment and stare at him“Its definitely going to be edible” he whispers and presses the 0 on the landline to make an appointment.“They have good job service here” I say when he finally keeps back the handset.“Well, but only Elite people can benefit fro
“You’re awake?” I hear Argon as I sit up. He had covered me with a blanket so I could rest well.“I am” I smile.It felt good meeting that sweet girl; it felt as if I met a tiny part of me in her.“How is your headache now?” he asks standing up from his desk chair and walking towards me.“Its gone now” I say after examining myself.“That’s good” he sighs and sits beside me.“ummm” I just humm“What happen?” he asks“Huh?” I look at him confused.“You're lost. What’s going on in your head?” he questions me with genuine eyes.“Ah, its nothing” I say tapping my hands on my knees “I'll get going Argon” I say and stand up.Suddenly I feel myself fall back; he grabbed my hand to make me sit back but I accidently sat on his lap and not the couch due
“How is she Dr. Marshall?” I ask after he finished examining the person everyone told was my mother. “She’s still the same, Dear” he says closing the medical file “Although her reading are stable we can’t really say what’s stopping her from waking up” he says. I nod understanding. “Argon wants you to go to this address” Dr. Marshall; father of Argon hands me a folded slip. Argon is my potential boyfriend. He’s been visiting me every two days ever since I visited his hospital. “Thanks doctor” I say and he furrows his brows. I realise my mistake “Mr. Marshall” I readdress him the way he told me to. He smiles and walks out of the room. I sit on the couch and look at mother “Are you really my mom?” I ask again hoping she’ll wake up and answer me but as always I get disappointed. I unfold the paper and read it Delight Hotel @ 5 pm, I’ll pick you up!
