FAREWELL - Nightmares

She is awake. After another night without sleeping she could rest a bit.

“What time is it? Where is everybody?”

- Mom? Dad? Mrs. Charlotte? Is anybody home?

“Maybe they went off to the church… What will I do now?”

She starts wandering around the room. Without any idea what she could do, she returns to bed.

“I’ll try to get some sleep, this way mom and dad won’t worry…

But I can’t help it! Every time I start sleeping the nightmares return… The loud noises, things being broken, the crying, everything turning red, embraced by darkness, and then… then he appears. He is so beautiful… That moment he holds me tight and says that everything is all right… I feel so safe in his arms, that I can’t help myself but believe him. From that instant, all I can see is the light around us and him…”

Someone is knocking on the door. She gets up and quickly dresses up and leaves the room to answer the door…

While she leaves her room the ceiling disappears, the walls become aged and the windows break. Then, without her notice, she leaves a trace of blood across the room where she walked through…
