Tigers live to hunt and live
They do what they desire for pure pleasure
Loyalty and love was never their concern
To fill their empty stomachs hungry for lust
"You don't have the right to live that life, Byak—"
A familiar voice end my thoughts and shook me out from nightmares.
"Yuan, Are you alright?" She looked at me worriedly as she held on my shoulders. The look on her face disturbed me, and pained me. I hugged her and averted my eyes from her worry.
"Why wouldn't I be?" I told her as my face hide from her sight, resting on her soft shoulder.
I pulled back and smiled my carefree smile to her. I pinched her cheeks in attempt to make her smile or laugh, secretly pleading in my heart to change your emotion, your expression. To remove that worried face I despise to see.
"You were spacing out again…" She said as she tried to smile and held my hands holding her cheeks. I felt how gentle she touched my hands, her deep sweet concern felt on her touch.
I have been spacing out lately. The nightmares appear frequently in my dreams, even when I'm not sleeping. They would just appear in my thoughts, and take me away from reality. I thought maybe it's just me wanting to feel like a hero, wanting to become dramatic like those in the comics. I thought maybe I will evolve like those in fantasy shows. Yet these nightmares have taken me away so easily. I fear I might not even come back after a few nightmares.
What I fear most, is that why is my body not fighting the nightmares. It's as if they have accepted it as part of me or maybe…
It was always a part of me
Then what am I exactly?
"Yuan? You're spacing out again…"
