I was reading the comments from my first novel when my cat Ronny suddenly jumped on my keyboard. He positioned himself to sleep right there deliberately draining my patience.
"This cat has some attitude." I pinched its cheeks but it remains asleep no matter how much I bother it. So, in the end, I pulled the plug turning off my computer.
I didn't even notice that it was already 2:30 am and I'm still awake. I was re-reading my first novel earlier on the computer because there's something about it that makes me question my existence. Is it normal to remember the events as if they are my real memories? The more I read it feels so weird. But if it's my memory then who am I?
I laughed at my thoughts, silly me. I've been reading too many manhuas that I'm starting to doubt my life as a normal person.
I sat on my bed, I'm 16 now yet I haven't even made a single friend or boyfriend. I've been living alone in this apartment with only my brother James providing everything I need. James Salazar, he's a doctor therefore he rarely comes home. He's my only living family yet I can't get close to him. I feel like there's a huge barrier between us.
After some thinking, I finally fell asleep.
-------------
Everything was dark, it was even darker than any nights and brownouts I ever experienced. Where the hell am I? I remember closing my and falling asleep on my bed... So why am I standing in the midst of nowhere?
"Ruenne, Ruenne..." I turned my head around and a face of a lady whom I'd seen only in my dreams came into me. Her greyish-green eyes were filled with tears and for a Villainess, she has a soft expression as she looks at me. This is Ruenne Jean Devonshire the first Villainess in my novel Even Roses Hate Their Thorns.
"I'm Jade. Why am I here? What do you want from me?" I asked calmly. Maybe this is another dream. I've been seeing Ruenne in my dreams for years. She ages every time I see her. The last time is when I'm 15 years old and the first time I saw her was when I'm 10. She's been bugging me but this is the first time I ever heard her voice.
"No, I'm the real Jade Salazar. You're the real Ruenne Jean Devonshire. Please, I'm so tired of living this life of yours. I beg you... Please return my body to me." She smiled bitterly at me as she cries and kneels on the floor.
"I don't know what you're talking about. You're just a character in my novel. How can you say this thing to me?" I speak sternly with my arms crossed. She stood up with her face red because of crying. She pulled out a black diamond. It was the size of her hand and it was very sharp. She stares me in the eyes so I look back at her directly.
Without any words, she stabbed the black diamond right into my belly button. I felt a cold shivering wind-like aura entering inside me. I don't understand this pain, I was stabbed in my stomach but my heart is throbbing as if thorns are wrapping around it. I chuckled as I puke black blood. What is this feeling? This is a nightmare, right? Why does it feel so real?
"I-I'm sorry... The demon told me that he can help me return to my body if I-I stab this diamond to you." She stuttered. What is this weird dream? Now we got demon involved here? I couldn't bring myself to speak because of the black blood that was coming out of my mouth.
"When you return, look for my diary. It is placed inside a treasure box under the bed. It will answer all the questions you had inside your head. I hope you can return and fix everything that I'll be leaving behind. As much as I don't want you to go back to that rotten family of yours, I have a brother whom I desperately miss right now. This is my last chance on taking my body back, I'm sorry, Ruenne." She muttered her last word before a sudden whirl of black rose petals surrounds us. Black smoke encircled us as if it were eating us alive. After that very moment, I lost all my strength...
I'm Fading out...
Losing consciousness...
