"Rise and shine greenie!", someone whisper yelled in my left ear and i almost had a heart attack, as my eyes fluttered open i saw minho standing beside my bed with his jet black hair perfectly combed and grinning at me as if he had just won a bravery award for scaring the crap outta me.

"Man, why did you do that?", i asked in annoyance, he laughed, a pure heartful laugh, "sorry, but it was fun, wasn't it?" he said, "yeah, very fun", i said with my tone full of sarcasm. "Get cleaned up, you have five minutes i will be waiting for you outside your room, and then we will go get some breakfast.", he winked at me and went outside shutting the door behind him.

After getting ready i just put on my jacket and shoes, and opened the door to see minho smiling, i have to admit, no matter how much he annoyed me but i still loved his company.

We walked to the kitchen without conversing much, frypan welcomed us with a warm smile and served us some bacon and scrambled eggs.

"So, did you have any nightmares last night?", minho asked me while closely examining his strawberry with his fork, "not really, why are you asking so?", i asked being clueless as always. "Nah, just like that, because its a common thing that happens to the gladers, sometimes we have really horrific nightmares, sometimes we don't.", he said looking in my eyes, as if he knew i was lying, because i was, and he probably knew it too.

I saw things which were not only frightening but, also things about which i was scared to tell anyone even newt,minho or alby. I just looked down at my plate which had only a strip of bacon left in it, i was already full but i ate it anyway because i didn't want to look at minho, he surely knew i was hiding something but he didn't force to get it out of me. This is one of the reasons for which i admired minho. He didn't say a word to me after that,just finished his meal and went to the maze as he did every morning.

I went to do the jobs that were assigned to me, i haven't yet been given my permanent job, i have just been trying new ones everyday. But i was too distracted by what i saw in my dreams, to do anything right, i tried plowing the soil to plant seeds but ended up plowing at all the wrong spots, newt asked me what was wrong with me today but i just told him i wasn't feeling very well so he told me to rest for a while, that meant thinking more about what i saw last night. I don't even know if they were memories or just random things my brain was showing me, but they seemed to be memories, i saw two more teens, a girl and a boy, both of them had dark hair, a woman's voice kept saying in my head that 'WCKD is good', i don't even know what it meant. I saw myself working at something with those two other kids. All of this seemed so strange and scary.

I just went to my room and sat on my bed and kept thinking about whether i should tell minho or newt about all this.

I woke up to someone knocking on my door, "come in", i said. Minho walked in with a little smile and scratching the back of his head, "sorry to disturb you, but newt told me you weren't well so i came here to just have a look if everything is fine",he said with slight frown on his face "i am fine, minho",i said. "Okay then, i will leave now, as you must need some rest, and inform me if you will need anything",he said, "no, stay here, i need to talk to you", i said while looking down at my lap. "So you finally made up your mind to tell me about the nightmares?",he asked me with his hands folded across his chest, i looked at him wide-eyed even though i had a clue that me must be knowing that i was lying, but i still had a little panic attack in my head.

"Umm..yeah kind of, i am sorry i lied to you, i was scared and didn't know what to do", i said with an apologetic tone because i felt bad for not trusting him enough. "It's ok greenie, there is nothing to be sorry about, and i do understand why you feel scared, now tell me what you saw, it is very important, because we don't know what can get us out of this maze.", he said. "Come sit", i said directioning to the other end of my bed, he sat without a word and waited for me to start with my story, so i did, "First i saw myself arguing with a middle-aged woman, she seemed to be a doctor, we were arguing over something, i was shouting at her but she remained calm and composed , she kept talking about some kind of a cure. Then the seen changed and i was in a cabinet working with some computers and two other kids, a boy and a girl, i got into some kind of a beef with that girl too, but the way we talked, i think she must have been my friend, the boy kept quiet though, he didn't speak a word,it ended up with me being dragged by two guards and getting locked in a room. The room was pitch dark and i could hear screaming and other awful sounds coming from somewhere, and i woke up."i blurted out every little detail, because i knew i could trust him, but i didn't tell him about one specific thing, it didn't seem that important to me, but i had a feeling i should keep that to myself, i don't know why. After i finished he just nodded his head a few times, said nothing and left the room.

After minho left i got out from my bed and went to map room. although i am not allowed to go there without the keeper of the runners' knowing about it, but i didn't care as i was curious. I took out the recent maps from the shelf and started looking at them and analysing them carefully, i wasn't being able to understand it completely but i did understand some of the patterns.

as i was going through some other maps, alby walked in. he looked at me with his deep brown eyes, "what the hell are you doing here, and what makes you think that it's okay for you to come here without any permission?", he asked me, "i am really very sorry, but i couldn't stop myself from taking a look, i was curious and needed some information about this stupid maze.", i said trying to justify my actions and what i did just now. "Minho had already told you what you needed to know, hannah", he said , "punish me if you want, i know what i did was wrong but you can't keep me in the dark forever.", i said. "I am giving you a final warning, if you break one more rule, you will be getting sent to the pit, and let this stay between both of us, because i don't want these shanks to know and think that i am being biased towards you, i am sparing you because i understand how you feel.", he said with a bit of sympathy. "Thank you, alby but you don't really need to do this for me, if i deserve a punishment then go ahead, i have no problem with it", i said. "No, it's okay, just remember not to repeat this", he said.

I left the room so did he, had my dinner, talked to newt about my schedule for tomorrow and what all new jobs i will be trying, and went to sleep.

I woke up, and peeked outside the window, it was still a little dark, but i anyways jumped out from my bed, got ready and headed outside the homestead, many of the boys were still sleeping, i saw minho having breakfast, then i saw gally working in the fields and cutting a tree with his axe for wood. Without thinking much i walked up to him, "hey, gally" i said trying to sound cheerful as i have heard from several other gladers the he wasn't one of the most friendliest people around here, "what do you want greenie?", he said without even looking up and continued doing his work. "Hannah, it's hannah not greenie", i responded, "yeah whatever, as if i care" , to which i just rolled my eyes, "are you always this grumpy?" , i asked him trying not to sound too rude. "Yeah maybe, why are you here anyways huh?, trying to lighten the mood?, well if it so then let me tell you, this place is a mess and nothing can make it better even your useless efforts to make new friends and joke around.", he said coldly. Whatever he said was harsh but it was true, this place is going to drive me crazy, i have been here only for two days and it already feels like i have been here forever, well technically i have, because i can't remember a single day of my past life.

I saw a few guys staring at me while i was walking towards the woods., as they usually did, there is nothing else you can expect when you are the only girl among fifty or so boys,the still couldn't believe that the creators sent a girl, some of them don't even trust me, they think i am some sort of a spy, but i have learned to ignore them, as they are scared to even come near me as they know if they try to act smart around me, alby and newt are gonna break their noses so they maintain their distance, which i am happy about.

I started walking deep into the woods, i could hear the rustling of leaves due to the wind blowing,and the soft chirping of the birds, the weather was soothing and for the first time in these past couple of days i felt kinda relaxed. I sat under a tree and looked at the thin stream of cool and fresh water flowing in front of me, i slowly dipped my fingers in the water and felt a cold sensation travel up my arm all the way to my spine, i cupped a little bit of water in my palm and drank it sip by sip, which seemed to clear up my mind a bit and calm my nerves. I leaned back onto the bark of the tree i was sitting under and closed my eyelids. My stomach rumbled and i remembered that i haven't had breakfast yet, i didn't wanted to go back but i couldn't stay here forever either, after all, i can't escape the reality for long. So i got up ran my fingers through my light brown hair strands a few times and went back towards the kitchen. While going back i thought i should come more often to the woods, it made me feel a lot better.
