I’m A Monster

Beep beep beep.

As my eyes gradually opened, the first sound I heard was the sound of a hospital machine beeping gently in my ear.

I could barely feel any part of my body and it felt like my brain was blank at the moment. I tried speaking but no words were coming out.

Soon, images began to flood my brain and it made my head pound like crazy. The once gentle machine began to sound really loudly and it wasn helping my headache at all.

As soon as the machine began sounding loud, doctors began rushing into the young ladies room, and soon, there were about four people in the room with her. That was one doctor and three nurses.

I was beginning to feel severe pain at the back of my head and in no time, I passed out or so it seems. But as soon as I did that, I saw a lady covered in a completely black cloak.

”Who….who are you? ”

I asked in a very weak voice. The lady in black bowed her head as though she was paying respect to someone I turned to see if someone was behind me but there was absolutely no one. When I turned back, she was standing right in front of me.

”Ahh!! ”

I screamed and fell to the floor.

”My lady, I guess you are not as weak as you were weeks ago. Good to know ”.

She bent to my standard and kept looking at me. It was obvious that I was so scared I could pee in my pant.

”Its time for you to wake up my lady, stop being such a weakling. WAKE UP!! ”

After that encounter, the young lady on the hospital bed who was already being registered as dead opened her eyes wide. For a split second, her eye was completely black but no one saw it.

I stood up with a newly profound strength, I saw a woman cry but I didn seem to recognize her at all. Beside her was another woman cleaning her eye with a hankie but I didn see any tears at all.

Suddenly a woman in uniform that looked like a nurse began to point at me.

”Sh….she…shes awake, doctor, shes awake!! ”

She said while running out to call the doctor. The doctor walked in at full speed and the women who were crying came closer.

”How is this possible? Miss, can you please lie down for a while? ”

I obeyed the doctor and laid back down on the bed. He began asking me questions and I answered them with my voice as clear as the morning sky.

He turned to the woman who was crying and said.

”This is a miracle, she looks totally fine ”.

”Ohh, ohh my baby ”.

The woman began crying again as she drew closer to me and hugged me tightly. I didn know who she was so it made me a little bit uncomfortable.

”Who… ”

She stopped crying and looked at me.

”You…you don know who I am? ”

I kept looking at her and thought.

If I knew would I be asking?

”No no no, this can be happening. Doctor! Check her again please ”.

After a few more checkups, the doctor called the woman into his office.

”Mrs. Skye, due to the accident, a portion of her brain has been damaged and due to the tests weve taken, it seems she won be getting them back anytime soon ”.

Mrs. Skye the woman who was crying in the room earlier looked completely devastated. She wasn crying anymore she was just looking down. Her voice was shallow now.

”So, what are we going to do now? ”

”Well, other than that, she looks completely fine so, all we can do now is take her to places and show her things that might help her remember ”.

Mrs. Skye nodded and thanked the doctor gracefully and walked out.

Mrs. Skye is the mother of the young lady who looked sick. She was a single mother who was extremely successful and powerful and Cleo, the lady who was on the hospital bed was her only daughter.

Mrs. Skye went back to Cleos room but when she got there, she was already asleep so she walked quietly and gently so as to not disturb her daughters sleep.

It was late in the evening when Cleo woke up.

When I woke up, I noticed someone was holding into my hand and when I looked at who it was, I realized it was the woman from earlier. I had already asked about her from the nurses and they told me that she was my mother and the other woman was a friend of hers.

I was also informed that I have an older brother but he has only been to the hospital once for the entire five months that I have been here.

Whats weird is that I don remember them at all and I feel no connection whatsoever towards any of them, not even my mother but seeing how downcasted she was earlier I guess Ill just have to get used to this.

The next day, the doctor said I was free to go home but I had to come twice a week for checkups. When I got home, it appears that I wasn just a rich girl, I was literally a boss.

I was treated like one and I sure did feel like one.

”Welcome home my love ”.

My mom said to me but I simply gave a warm smile and kept looking at the interior. The mansion was just too huge that I could not take everything in. All I knew was that my mother most definitely liked things in gold.

A maid showed me to my room so I could freshen up and come down for breakfast. When she left, I began looking around my room, and to me, this could most definitely be someones entire house.

”I don remember a thing but I can most definitely get used to this in no time ”.

After taking my shower, I kept looking for what to wear and that led me to a different room inside my room a walk-in closet. I was totally dumbfounded, it was enormous. I looked around for a very long time and after a while, I chose a big top and some really nice blue shorts.

I went downstairs and when I got there, I met my mother there.

”Mom ”.

She looked at me and I could see that she was genuinely happy to hear me say that.

”Come, come my dear lets eat ”.

Just when we were about to get to the dining table, the door burst open and a guy who looked drunk came in.

”Ohh, look whos here, its my sister ”.
