Second reality

The night had felt as if it went on for hours but yet her clock showed 2:36 am, It wasn't even quite two hours, though it was enough . She sat up and stretched the world still a daze through her sleepy eyes. She got up and turned on the light and made sure the bedroom doors where all locked, checked under the bed, behind the curtains , unlocked the two doors in her bedroom, one leading out, one leading to the closet , checked them, and relocked them, checked behind the curtains. It was safe.

She left the room lit up and checked everywhere multiple times a day. The childish behavior was due to fear, similar to that a child has of monsters in the room, but her fear is that one day the monster that haunted her dreams would become a reality.

She was 15 and was haunted by this second reality for half of her life. At first this strange haunting that now causes fear was comforting thing. In order to understand how her best friend through another world became her worst fear, it has to go back to the start.

           The young girl was walking through the tall grass , it was a warm sunny spring day, abnormally bright. Hearing a noise she looked up , and saw a girl staring at her. The girl just smiled and looked friendly. She looked a few years older. The biggest thing was she had eyes that glowed just as much as the hot summer sun. Bright green, so bright , it was almost blinding and unreal. The girl walked up to Anastasia and Ana just asked the girl her name. No response. So Ana asked if the girl was lost. The girl liked at her messing with the grass for a bit smiling before responding. That was another thing Ana noticed. The girl had such a bright encouraging smile , it's what made Ana trust her. The girl finally responded saying she lived just down the dirt road, and just was looking to be fiends.
