I passed the pedestrian lane when suddenly I heard the noise of wheels coming towards me.
I sped up my walking speed and reached the other side of the road. Goddamn truck drivers, are they always this thirsty for blood?
But my mind hazed, covered with nothing but static.
My eyes are blurring out. My chest hurt. I hear faint voices of concern around me.
No! I don't want to die!
----------------------------------------
A certain figure appears in front of an old man in his 30's
"Prometheus, is Zeus nearby?"
"I don't know about that old man, he just came back from the mortal world with the smell acquaint to perfume"
The palm of the woman rushes for her face.
"God, what to do with him?"
"Why are you asking Jehovah?"
"No, I mean. Forget it. Continue your work."
"Just ask Jesus for support"
"Just shut up Loki"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I wake up with white floor above me.
I look around me and see iron bars and multiple plastic tubes wiring around me. My body feels comfortable.
I call for someone yet no one attends my needs. I must be in a hospital.
A headache crashed upon me, sending vibrations inside my head, followed by a deafening high pitched noise.
"_____! I am over here!"
Everything went white around me, I must be dreaming.
"Oiiiii!"
Someone is calling me, I turn around and see a black figure.
"I'm here!"
I see a figure of a woman waving her hand towards me.
"_____!"
What?
"_____!!"
Pardon?
"Mr _____!"
I open my eyes and meets the white floor, no, ceiling above me. I see a woman in her 20's peek as if she was looking down a well.
"Mr ____, are you okay? Do you need something?"
"Am I in a hospital? Who are you? Why am I here? What happened to me?"
"You're in the Yuzu hospital. I am Nurse Rin and I am in charge with your checkup, are you okay?"
I force my upper body to stand upright.
"Oh, here you go"
The nurse helped me and now I can confirm that I am in the hospital. It seems nobody came to see how I am doing.
A bell noise came out the speaker above the door.
"Attention! Nurse Rin, please come to B2 section, Doctor Fey needs your immediate assistance"
"I'm so sorry Mister! I need to go now, Doctor needs me, see you!"
What's with that nonchalant way of acting as a nurse, so unprofessional. She didn't even bat to say my name, no she did, what was it....
I have nothing to lose, I should just get rid of these tubes on my skin.
As I scraped off every plastic that connected me to the hospital, I stood up from my bed quickly, but that was a poor decision, it made me dizzy as my blood failed to catch up to my head.
I walked towards the door sloppily with still patched tapes on my skin that made me look injured.
I headed towards the exit of the hospital but suddenly.
"Sir? Aren't you supposed to be in your bed now? Hey! Wait!"
She ordered me to wait but I ran otherwise. She started reaching for something big and thick in her pocket... oh it was just her phone.
Suddenly, sirens went off all over the hospital which can still be heard even outside.
Several white polo shirt dudes with black neck ties came in and chased me. Crazy was how I looked in those eyes of theirs but I'm not complying. I learned more about myself that I am a fast runner.
Luckily, I lost those people. Unfortunately, I'm lost. I found myself surrounded with greeneries. Iron fences that bars the flowers from the stony pathway and multiple "NO PICKING" signs were planted in between those flowers.
I walked around the supposedly garden and appreciate its beauty. This time, I reflected how my life came to be before I forgot everything. I feel lonely.
Until I didn't.
I felt scared.
Multiple beams of light started surging from the ground and the sky in front of me. Rainbow was its colors.
A body that formed like a woman appeared before me. Silk was her skin, emerald was her eyes, her crown that formed 11 pikes with 5 jewels in between and long was her hair that defined her bosom and her hourglass figure covered by long white dress that even covered the floor.
Simply, a goddess has arrived.
I turned my face away and my hands to block the blinding lights. I was scared and confused. Whomever it is, I don't want to deal with thi-
"What do you seek little one?"
What?
"Power? Wealth? Fame?"
Words vibrated in the air, demanding authority.
"or..."
Is this even...
"Love?"
real?
