Drowning In Memories

Part 54 - Anxious

I whimpered, my soul rejecting the healing. Or at least trying to. It was healing, bit by bit, but it hurt like hell...

I took shaky breaths, unable to feel any of them. It was as if my airway had closed. I couldn't focus. I really couldn't breathe...

My vision darkened at the edges, my breaths getting more frantic. I covered my head, trying to force myself to calm down. It didn't really work.

Was this a panic attack?

Something different all together?

I felt scared...

I'd never experienced anything like this before.....

The white void was beginning to get dark in my vision.

My breathing kept at a fast pace.

Fear ate at my soul...

Disbelief of the statements clawed at my mind...

Guilt ran down my spine...

I shouldn't be having these emotions. I know. I remember one line vividly.

You need to learn to rein in your emotions...

Remembering that did nothing to help the situation...

I curled up, trying to keep as hidden as possible. I didn't... want to be seen like this...

At least, not by the others...
