It was a bright sunny morning, Elina walked to the church with a smile on her face.
Dressed in all white, a bouquet of flowers in her hands.
She had been in love with him for a really really long time now,
Finally they were going to get married.
Her mother was there today, and so were her loved ones.
He was standing right besides her.
Elina felt a bit of emotional distress, it was her 1st and possibly the last time, attending her own marriage she thought it's only natural for her to feel that way.
The priest stood behind the 2 and sang praises to the lord.
After the formalities, the priest asked her to kiss her newly wed husband which she gladly did.
Things were just perfect.
She and her husband together stand into the same carriage, his face was just as always, shining brown eyes. A scar on his forehead, in a shape of a curl on the further left.
Long hairs and a sweet gentle complexion.
But something was different about it today, something she just couldn't point out.
The carriage stopped and the two got out.
It was their home, a small villa the 2 had built after a long hard battle with hardships and suffering.
But now it was finally complete.
Standing strong and beautiful.
She took in the 1st step inside.
It was the best time of her life, she had everything, her husband, this house, a future filled with all sorts of little pleasures awaited her.
Until it did not,
Suddenly a pillar collapsed on her.
The house that was standing strong a moment ago, suddenly crumbled to bits on top of her.
Splattering her as if she was a small tiny bug underneath the feet of a full grown man.
Suddenly she jumped out of her bed as she wake up.
Oh god I'm so glad it was a dream, she thought to herself.
Then she looked outside the window.
In front of her was him,
'what are you doing here so early in the morning, wow you look dressed so formally. You really couldn't wait to see me any longer could you...' saying that she came out of the door rushing towards him. She hugged him, wrapping her hands around him with a smile on her face.
He did the same,
Suddenly she felt something warm coming out from her guts, she looked downwards.
Only to notice a knife plunging away at her guts, and the hand wielding it was his.
He smiled as she gave him a horrified look, 'why? Why did you do it?' she said as tears rolled down her eyes.
'I loved yo-' before she could complete the sentence he kissed her and suddenly her mind went blank.
The moment she got back her consciousness, she was standing on the stage, outside the church.
Her mom was there.
And so was the priest.
And so was everybody else.
And him.
They were in the middle of kissing each other when she suddenly bit him, he backed off, his tongue bleeding.
Without any hesitation she screamed, 'Why Did You Stab Meee!!! '
She looked down and touched her gut, it was all right.
She looked around and saw horrified faces of everyone as they looked at what she had just done...
Then she looked at him.
There was blood coming out of his mouth but for the most part, he was just the way he was in the carriage or when he was outside her mom's house waiting for her to wake up.
He looked at her with eyes of dissatisfaction, but there was still the glimmer and kindness she had always preferred to see in him.
He looked at her and said it's alright...
Then suddenly some things happened, the ground underneath ripped open and she fell.
Into the darkness that had surrounded her.
Suddenly her eyes opened again.
This time it was glaring at her, the doll.
The very one that her father had gifted her.
The night before he killed her mother and himself aswell as her.
Elina looked around, she soon realised where she was...
It was a place that had been lost in the ocean of her memories.
The place where she was born, the place where she lived for 7 years and the place where she had died.
'I remember now, it happened 12 years ago.
Father had gone mad.
He picked up the knife from the table just cause mother had forgotten to add some salt in his food. He lost his mind and butchered mom right in front of us all.
I still remember it clearly.
The knife tore off her head completely from the middle splitting her in two.
Ana was the oldest of us all, she rushed towards the door, but it was locked.
He did not spare any of us.
He killed us all in cold blood.
Just in a few moments the caring father we all loved had suddenly turned into a cold blooded killer.'
' I remember now, before he killed me, I managed to get into my room, where you were sitting on your place. I went in and held you in my arms and hid myself behind the corner of the bed. Then in the end he came for me. As he came inside he said, '' daddy' s little girly, where are you? Daddy wants to play a little game with you.
You'll be the lamb and Ill be the wolf... ''
After that he laughed, his laughter was the most depressing thing I ever heard...'
But I still don't understand, if I died that night, then who am I right now?
What about all those memories, what about
The house and what about him?
Who am I?
Am I the girl who died that day?
Or am I the doll who survived that night?
Just who am I?
And who are you?
