I hate being here. in this place of emptiness. I feel stuck, like I'm not supposed to be here. I don't know where I am.
Whether I'm alive or dead.
Every so often, I can hear what sounds like a memory, but I don't know if it is mine or whatever this empty void has conjured up.
I don't want to be here anymore. I just want to give up. The cold wrapped around me as if it were a blanket trying to keep me from freezing. But nothing seemed to work.
The only thing I could think about was how cold I had become within seconds.
It felt like everything was slowly slipping away from me. My memories slowly faded, as did any feeling I once had.
"I need you to wake up."
I hear someone call out from a distance. I looked around this dark abyss that I was trapped in. The voice made my heart skip a beat.
It was like it knew the deep voice. Like it had once loved him, and yet I didn't even recognize it.
I couldn't even if I tried. I think to myself. I pull my knees to my chest, hugging them.
"I need you to wake up. I need to be able to tell you that I'm still in love with you."
The darkness I once was trapped in began flashing with memories. I know they were my memories, yet I don't remember even making them.
I watched as they played out. everything between good and bad. I winced at certain memories. Others I laughed at.
I smile as I watch the memories play like a movie. I watched myself grow up. It was weird, but peaceful.
All of a sudden, the memories stopped. I stood in a library. I looked around, taking in the memory that seemed so distant.
Large bookcases lines the walls of the large room. "You need to wake up, princess." I turned so quickly that it caused me to stumble a bit.
I stared at my father. Tears filled my eyes as I slammed my body into his. His arms wrapped around me. "Ho-how?" The words left my mouth, my voice wobbling. He gave me a sad smile.
"You don't remember because you haven't gotten that far yet." He tells me My brows furrowed at him. My eyes widen as it hits me. "Am I dead?"
My father shakes his head. "You're in the in- between." He explains. I gape at him.
"What happened?" I panic, trying to force myself to remember, but I can't get any further than the memory I'm in.
"Just watch." He points behind me. I turn and watch everything start to play out again. I watch myself enter this library.
