Cry

I opened my eyes. Where was I? I was in the middle of an open field, carpeted in snow. Here and there, grass was poking out of the ground. The snow was stained browned in blood. I took a step forward.

Oh look.

There's a child in the middle of the field. He has a scarf on and he's holding something. What is it?

A sunflower.

I walked a little faster. Is the child okay? I stopped suddenly. The child, clutching a sunflower to his chest, is covered in blood. His beige scarf is splattered in dark crimson blood. Is he hurt? He spotted me and came running. Far away I see something. . . .

Bodies.

Dozens of them.

Human bodies.

Dead.

Their purple faces twisted in a grotesque manner. My stomach turned looking at them. Something runs into me.

Oh. There's the child.

His pale yellow hair falls in front of his face. Tears are streaming from his lavender eyes. He gripped my jacket tighter. His hands were trembling.

"P-Please. . . ."

His eyes widened and panic was rising in his voice.

"H-help! Please Mr., you have to help me!" He began sobbing uncontrollably.

"I-"

Wait.

I recognize this voice.

"I-"

My eyes flew open.

I wrenched myself upright in the bed.

I was. . . . crying. No. . . . not crying. . . . bawling. I've never cried so hard in my life.

The door flew open and there was Russia

"Latvia-"

I jumped up and ran to him, wrapping my arms around his chest.

I was scared.

So, so scared.

So scared that Russia wasn't making me tremble at the moment. I just needed human contact.

"L-Latvia?"

The sobs were shaking my body and the moisture from my eyes soaked into Russia's clothing.

"U-um h-here. . . . sit."

I sat down on the bed with Russia. Still crying. He put his arm around me.

"Латвия. . .Что случилось? Tell me."

The words came out half-strangled, between sobs. "I-I had a dream. . . . You were. . . . . . you were. . . a-a child. . . .soaked. . . . in blood. . . . You were. . . . .so. . . .s-so lonely. . . .I-it was sc-sc-scary. . . ."

I felt a hand against my face. It was Russia, wiping my tears away.

"It's okay, it's okay. . . . I'm here. . . ."

I broke down sobbing again, burying my face in my hands.

He rubbed my back soothingly.

"It's okay, it's okay. You were scared. It's okay. . . .to cry. I'm here, I'm here."

Those words. . . . those simple, kind words. . . .they were 'I love you', right there. . . .

* "Латвия. . . Что случилось?" I don't know if this is the right way to say "Latvia. . . . What happened?"

At first I was considering "Латвия. . . Что произошло?" but I'm not sure if that's correct or not.
