First, my eyes opened, and then a soft voice entered my ear.
"Aiden."
I reflexively turned in the direction of the voice.
What I saw was a young-looking woman with brown hair and two gray eyes looking at me with compassion. Yet I felt something strange inside me as I looked into those eyes.
Is the feeling I get from those eyes really compassion? It feels like it, but...
My head suddenly began to ache, and then the delicate voice of the woman who owned those eyes entered my ears again.
"Come. We have to go."
Her voice was comforting, reassuring even. But at the same time, it felt unusually strange. It was as if she was showing me affection and at the same time trying to avoid me. This contradiction was what gave me a headache.
"Okay..."
My voice sounded like a child's, and for a moment I was confused.
It wasn't me talking, my body was moving on its own.
I don't know why, but this... feels familiar. It's like I've had an experience like this before.
