How long has it been since I last had a dream…
I guess it's been too long for me to remember…
"Leona…"
"Leona..."
Don't wake me… I'm too tired…..
"Leona…"
Who...?
"Leona…"
Who's calling my name…..?
There shouldn't be anyone here…
"Leona..."
My eyes feel heavy as I slowly open them
Really... what a nuisance…
I'm hearing that voices again...
hm…..
Something is ... what is this?
My vision is still a blur from sleeping.
I gave it a second before my eye's adjusted itself to the delicate petal siting on my palm.
The petal was white from the bottom and tinted with light pink from the middle till the top.
Flower petals…?
I couldn't identify the flower but..
this sweet soft scent… it's familiar…
What is this I'm feeling….?
Is it nostalgic?
No… that's not right…
It's something more..
Wait.
There shouldn't be petals, I don't remember them being here…
I grimaced as realisation hits me
I have sat in this position for too long, my back is sore from leaning against the tree.
With my left palm, I pushed against the tree for support; I got up steadily with numb legs
"Aishhh… I really can't feel them"
I gave it a minute for my blood to flow to my legs,
While I waited the wind gathered a tornado of petals flying them as high as it could.
I whisked my head up, and watched as the petals dances itself back to the ground.
Once again, the wind tries to whisk them up, but once again the petals floats back towards the ground.
"Pft!" I couldn't contain my small laughter.
"Those petals would never be able to leave the ground,
No matter how hard the wind tries those petal would never be able to reach-"
Reach…..
Where is their final destination?
"The sky…. "
The sky?
"The bloody red ocean of blood painted above your head…"
I whisked my head up
The colourless sky has been stained in the colour of red.
