I'm running and I don't know why. All I know is I can't stop, my feet won't allow me too. I don't know where I am, everything is foggy and sweat is stinging my eyes. An old Indian man stopsme and offers me his holy relic, I thank him, confused, and stick it in my petticoat pocket. The fog suddenly clears and I'm in my childhood backyard, a tiger comes up to me, sniffs my torso,then walks off. I turn around and I'm in the realms, my mother is sitting on a rock braiding my hair, I take in her lovely scent and close my eyes while it fills my body. I am weightless. I slowlyopen my eyes and I'm with Kartik, sitting under a tree on the grounds of Spence Academy. He is holding me tightly to him, telling me sweet nothings. I press my lips to his neck and when I look up to see his beautiful face I'm in my room, drenched in sweat. I feel bile coming up my throat and I run to the toilet but don't make it in time and I fall to the floor crying and out of breathe while I curl into a ball and lay next to the disgusting remains that just came out of my mouth not seconds ago. "Why!" I cry out in deep sobs. I sit up and beat my fists against mythighs violently. "Why is this happening to me now?" I conjure this to myself and lean my head back against the wall and close my eyes and breathe in deeply and hold it. I slowly let it out through my mouth and get up and glide over to my desk. I take out a piece of paper and a ink pen and start to write a letter to Felicity.
Dear Felicity,
Urgent. Please come. Bring Ann.
I think the time has come again.
Your Dearest Gemma.
I sigh loudly to myself and fall back on my bed. I close my eyes and pretend to sleep till morning.
