The hit from a strong light source on my face brought me consciousness, my eyes popped open abruptly only to be met by the hostile brightness then shut back instantly to be shielded by my hands for shade impulsively. With my hand as a lee over my eyes, I opened my eyes a second time; now ever slowly to a blurry vision but with enough focus to realise I was in an unknown environment. I robbed my orbs frantically for a while to make my vision more trust worthy.
After some time, much clarity was obtained and with a little familiarisation of my location, I got to know it was the sun peeping from a small octagonal opening beautifully decorated by tiny winding plants of green and flowers of different colors such as purple, pink, yellow and white; with white being the dominating one of all, they were more like growing from where it sprouts than just stuck up there. It was the peep hole through which the astonishing golden brown bright light that had woke me up came through.
"That's new?!"
I thought, sitting up with a jolt. A survey around with my eyes which were now in normal seeing state revealed a more vivid foreign a room. I was seated on a bed made out of veins of plants with a floral decoration same as the window with the inner bedding thick with sacred lilies. I must confess the Lillies fragrance was soothing, besides they were my favorite petals. I wondered
"who could have made me a bed of Lillies. How could they have managed to know I loved them?" I took a deep breath to take more of my favorite sweet smell in and it was devine! This aromatherapy couldn't have happened at a better time than this. Serving it purpose.
To my left, which was now my back, due to the position I sat at presently, was the window from which the beautiful shining sun rays reflected directly at the head post.
Before me was the door, I suppose of medieval style of inter woven plants in an oval shape. In an effort to drop my feet on the floor? That was when I noticed it! "Crap! I am starting to get seriously creeped out." I was in a whole new different clothing not omitting room.
I wore a white pure linen full gown, with long sleeve which was open at the shoulder then conjoined around my wrist in a twist with the design of meandering snake like roots with pure gold edging holding it.
"There is some crazy shit! going on around here." I prompted myself. "By the way, where the hell are my fucking real clothes?" Came inward next as I rigorously touched around to make sure no one took undue advantage of me in my unconscious state. "Someone is about to lose their heads if I was molested." Was the beat playing alongside this search."Somebody also better come out here to give me some meaning explanation as to ... Where I am ? How they knew I cherished Lillies to go to the extent of bedding me on them whiles out cold and why my wardrobe was changed into this one without my approval; one that looks like I was being prepared for a sacrifice before I .... Sacrifice! Oh! no! no! no! this is not good. I have been kidnapped and their going to kill me." I was becoming hysterical, the agitating words flashing and twitching in my overheated head didn't get the chance to settle before I was extended a drink. I almost said 'Thank you!' out of gratitude thinking someone may have sensed my uneasiness or noticed I was up by the crazy noises from me and was offering a drink to cool me down simply to turn and realise it was served by a bell flower. Shit! keeps getting more and more crazy! As if I wasn't already rattled enough! A plant without any one in there with me! "Holy shit!" I shouted out of shock for the sneak service falling back , propped on one hand behind me defensively whiles backing alway. I mean, no fucking person was there! I scrutinized the ambiance to find a mechanism working the flower and found none. I might as well just be completely nuts and seeing things or whatever, but however it is? well! That is my cue to bounce! I didn't want to take in the rest of the room, neither did I want to end up a sacrificial lamb for no ugly entity; for the room? my new clothes? no dragging that, they just befit the profile of an offertory. I don't know how, I ended up where I was; to begin with, because the village was intended to be the location and grandma's burial was to be the ceremony sadly. Now I am lost, I have lost my clothes too, my shoes and now this? This is certainly simply too much for a person in mourning. That not withstanding, first things first! I need not be told a second time, I had overstayed my welcome and needed to vamoose! I'm showing myself out. As a matter of matured mental decisiveness, I was already out of there! ' who would wanna hang around to see their end when they knew it was coming? No one! and certainly not moi! I only needed to move my body too out of there then am good.
"I will make it to what seemed to be the door , put all my strength in opening it then run for it till I get home." was the contingent plan. I flew to the oval shaped design I saw earlier and surmised it is the opening to a maybe familiar place even if it's not? So long as it was outta there? It was okay. With the idea of either pushing it to the right side or left side.
Truth is, there was no handles, sign or nothing showing where it led out. Could this get any further complicated than it is currently?" I imposed innately overwhelmed. "Wait! was i in a prison of some sort truly?" Oh! shoot! looks like the response to my fore out loud thoughts came in earlier than expected. "Chances are, there must be a guard at the door; If so?... " I began dissecting and debated this for a while then decided, I would rather find out than just stay there and be meat for the unknown later. I stepped up closer to what reasonably seems to be the door, propped my ear close for a while listening for a sound, just any assurance but heard none. All the while, still not decided where to exert the force. Eventually, I was going to bump into it to find out, which should also possibly unground a guard for the brief ;should there be one out there gracing me an advantageous head start. 'Wonderful idea kea!' I lauded myself mentally. I took few steps back rolled up my new dress from beneath, cause it was really long; thank goodness! for the light weight though, also I must surely admit the rich silky feather texture felt delightfully good on my skin.
"God help me! here goes nothing."
I muttered making for the door with full force; one I sincerely had not enough of, only to begin composing and remixing a platinum hit track agonizingly.
"Ouch! Aaah! Uuh! Damn! ouch!"
My guess was right! it was the door alright. A confirmation I got regrettably after I had the great fall accompanied by a heavy baggage of shame because it made way in the middle for me before I could crash land into it as planned. "Oh! no!" was the last cry that left my lips followed by whips of pain.
I found myself tumbling to an open space then landing with a tad! Which couldn't count as strive compared to the dangling noose of disgrace hanging around my neck. Just imagine being called out as a contestant of a beauty pageant to appear on stage in front of a huge crowd of spectators and instead of cat walking in, in all your glory, swaying side to side in your lengthy heel with all the grace you trip and roll in all messed up like a sack of potatoes all over. Disaster! Clumsy Keana! Yeah! There was an audience. Heartbreakingly. I rolled down about five short wooden stairs; thankfully unto a soft cushion surface of bouncy healthy green grass into a more confusing open space ambiance than the room I emerged from.
Instantly, i sat up then I looked around only to be met with amused faces of a small set of people both young, middle aged and old who would bow slightly to me first then say ... "My lady." after which, energetically endeavor to restrain their laughter yet the amusement lingered on their features, looking back at me. I felt awfully stupid and wish the earth would split and I'd slip in. The kids! oh! those naughty little cuties couldn't have made it any less unbearable. Their chubby faces, missing teeth plus hilarious squealing couldn't have felt any less rippling yet they were adorable.
Everybody was in white just as myself. None the less mine was of a unique design whiles all else was just plain. The men wore white pants with sampled striking carved abs. "Ooh! Hooo! " whiles the younger male wore shorts whereas the females were covered fully in simple gowns with deep cut from the hip to toe.
"Hey! Hello! Hi! " I would literate in salutations recursively with all my canines in exposition knotted with an awkward wave of my hands until another's hand was extended to me out of the sides which I cautiously took only to realize it was a known face! She was here all this while? Ain't I glad to see her!
