Someday - Somewhere
I wake up by the disgusting taste of some sort of substance going up my throat, seconds later I choke, so I quickly turn to one side to spit it all out. I can't recognize what it is, but I see some red in it. Suddenly I start noticing how painful it is to be laying on my side so I change my position again. My back is burning, I must have been asleep very profoundly not to notice how bad my back hurts, the burning of my back rushes up to my neck so I try to get up into a sitting position. That's when I start hearing some babbling, I still can't get a clear image of where I am though. Everything hurts and I wonder if am I still alive or if was bit and now I'm becoming a walker. Someone flashes a light in my eyes, I pass out.
*FLASHBACK*
"To show you that I am a decent man I won't spy while you change. Lucyl and I will be waiting outside, but don't take too long, otherwise I will have to come back and… well, you know I don't like to wait"
I see how Neegan walks out the room, whistling a lullaby, the door shuts behind him.
I'm standing in front of a full-body mirror; I hold a short black dress in one hand and a pair of black heels in the other. I change my clothes but it is not until I'm fully dressed that I look at myself in the mirror. My hair is longer than I remembered, It almost reaches my hips. My face as well as my body, are thinner now. My skin is drier but still has its brown color and its thickness. My legs look like chopsticks. I can't help but feel sadness and a strong desire to cry.
"Are you ready? Lucyl and I want to see you"
I turn to face the door and I put on my best face.
"Wow... "Neegan approaches me, he plays with Lucyl while he walks around me like if I were his prey.
"Look at yourself, Matilda" He says laughing "You could be the most beautiful of all my wives if you wanted to"
I keep my head low, looking at the clothes I had on before. A grey stinky jogging suit.
"Just think about it, Mat, I know you're really thin now but as soon as you start eating properly, you're going to get on a hell sexy of a shape, just like you were before, remember?"
Then he steps in front of me, grabs my chin and holds my face up "It's a shame, I remember the first time we met, do you? Man! You looked like a chocolate candy, you hair wasn't as longs as it is now, but it surely was the same shining brown color, oh and you were so strong. Your legs, your arms... God, I could go on and on but Lucyl is getting kind of jealous so…"
He continues smiling while he gets closer to me.
"It'd be a shame that you made the same wrong choice again, Matilda."
*ENDS FLASHBACK*
The non-stopping burning of my entire body is what wakes me up every time. I can't say how much time goes in between each awakening, but I do believe that I've been like this for at least 2 or 3 days.
This time is my head. I feel like if my brain were beating its way out of my head, I can't seem to make any sound for help or even to open my eyes. I feel desperate and even worse, helpless. I don't know who is the people I've been hearing voices from, but I hope they would notice something is going wrong with me.
Seconds later I hear a man's voice, he sounds really low, like if he were far away from where I am. "Her nose is bleeding" then overcome silence, and then some steps rush in wherever it is that this people and I are.
"I got the morphine" It's the last I hear.
to be continued?...
