In A Coma

Prologue

Perhaps it was a dream, she thought. Perhaps if she pinched herself, she would wake up. But she didn't want to wake up. She wanted to stay in this dream world where everything was possible. From flying fish to swimming birds. She was amazed at how her mind could make a wonder land. The floor below her was an endless pit that she stood above, and the sky was a cotton candy like texture as she could reach up and touch the sky.

"Cass, I felt something shake me, Cassie! Wake up, wake up! Miss White is coming!," Mei quietly yelled at me.

I just want to go home, go to sleep and just feel ok. But who is actually ok. Like come on!

We have three classes together, and she doesn't even talk to me! Ugh! But I can't focus on that now, I have other things to think of like myself, my friends, and... OH SHIT!!! I quickly run out of the class and bolt home. It was strange deja vu from my dream. And in my dream I ran home, so that's what I did. And when I arrived...
