Chapter 8 - Dream Of Rain

Aila's POV

It's dark here. Just pure black everywhere. I walked along the path until I stumbled upon the clock tower again. The place wherein I encountered him again. Literally seeing me, breaking down when I couldn't find Lala Mamay.

00:00

It's midnight already huh... But wait, why does it seem like the clock isn't working?

"Aila." I turned around, finding out who called my name. I looked around but I saw no one there then I felt raindrops falling.

Drip Drip Drop

Great! It's raining again. I ran to the nearest place I could find to avoid getting wet from the rain. I found myself at the bus stop. The place I first met him.

Herbert

I still remember the shades of red of everything in his place. I wonder what's all that about?

"May the dance of the stars guide you." I heard someone in the distance. That damn message again. I saw someone from afar in the rain. I ran to that person but why couldn't I catch up?

"Aila." The person spoke again. I kept on running towards that person, couldn't care less about getting wet from the rain.

"May-"

"Who are you?" I asked, the rain keeps on pouring harder. I kept on running but why does the distance between us keep on getting bigger?

"The dance of the stars-"

"Where is my grandmother?!" I demanded to the voice. I wish I could be heard despite the sound of the rain.

"Guide you."

"Lala Mamay!!!" I shout out loud then there's only pure darkness.

06:30

I opened my eyes, only to see an unfamiliar place. Not in our house. Not in our home

"You're finally awake."

I miss her... so much. Oh God, let me see her. Please...
