Beware of the dark, danger creeps...

I turned to get the answer to my question but, the answer was. . .

Me?

"Who are you?" I asked the girl who was standing next to me and looked exactly like me.

She grinned.

"I am asking one more time who –" I was cut short by this mysterious person, who raised a hand and my voice seized again.

"You had one simple rule to follow which was, Do not speak while we are talking, correct?" She said as she came a little closer,

I had so many questions to ask, for starters, why in God's name does she look like me?

" I guess you have a lot of questions but let's start with a little introduction, shall we?" She asked extending her hand, I was hesitant at first, but I shook her hand.

"May I meet you?" She asked with folded arms,

I signaled to her that I couldn't speak but she gave me a go ahead,

"Is this some kind of interview or something, I ask again who the hell are you and why do you look exactly like me?" I asked sternly waiting for my question to be answered.

She smirked, then frowned.

"I was getting there but you are just too stubborn for my liking," She responded while circling me,

I kept mute while she continued talking about a lot of nonsense,

"Well, if you must know I am Sophia and I am one of your subordinates, to make it easy for you to understand you are dominant and we are the subordinates," She said, then kept quiet as if she was waiting for me to say something,

"What do you mean by dominant and subordinates?" I asked curiously,

A sigh escaped from her lips.

"Okay, when a baby is born, there are three subconscious spirits, and out of the three subconscious spirits, only one person is chosen to control then the remaining two remain subconscious spirits, this is how it has been for a very long time, which is not fair but after the accident, we saw an opportunity and seize it jealously." She said with an evil grin spread across her face,

"So, where is the other one, and what opportunity did you grab jealously?" I interrogated her, but she rolled her eyes.

"Well, Charmaine isn't available at the moment, but you will meet her very soon, and as for the opportunity just sit back and wait it will be revealed very soon, oh! Would you look at the time, it's time to wake up till we meet again and that will be very soon,"  She smirked as she vanished into thin air.

I slowly opened my eyes and then scanned the room in search of Mom but she wasn't in the room.

I couldn't get my mind off the conversation I just had with Sophia, or could it be a dream?

The door creaked open which distracted me from my thoughts, She came in with the doctor, it seemed they didn't notice that I was conscious cause they were still conversing while I watched them.

"We will need to keep her here for a month cause there is no sign of her waking up anytime soon," Dr.Lee said, as he wrote something inside his board file.

She nodded sadly and looked like she hadn't slept for days which made her eye bags very visible.

"Mom?" I called out, she turned swiftly and then smiled rushing towards me.

She hugged me right while tears poured out non-stop, she cried for what seemed like forever but then released me.

"Drea, realmente me asustaste cuando te desmayaste. Ojalá no te hubiera hablado de Marilyn, debería haber esperado hasta que te recuperaras. (Drea, you really gave me a fright when you blacked out. I wish I had not told you about Marilyn, I should have waited till you recovered.) She said as a teardrop made its way down her cheek.

I cleaned the tears from her cheeks and smiled.

"Ya no hay necesidad de preocuparse, mamá. Estoy aquí ahora, y me alegro de que me lo hayas dicho porque tarde o temprano me habría enterado por mí mismo, y me habría roto, así que no llores más, madre. (There is no need to worry anymore, Mom. I am here now, and glad you told me because sooner or later I would have found out by myself, and I would have been broken so do not cry anymore, mother.) I said in tears, she comforted me in the best way she could but the damage had already been done. I can't still believe Marylin Monroe is dead.

I didn't know when tears began to drop like raindrops on a rainy day. Even thinking about it stings my heart, Marylin was the only one who understood me, how could I live without her– who would walk alongside me down the halls, Who would I vent to when my mom annoys me, who would binge-watch MSA videos with me? Thinking about it, Mar was my everything and now she is Gone.

"Mom?"

"Si!" She replied still hugging me tightly like her life depended on it.

"I need a moment to myself, can you leave the room for about 20-30 minutes, please?" I pleaded with her, she was hesitant at first but later budged.

She walked to the door but turned then smiled sadly before she left the room. I got out of the hospital bed, then walked to the toilet to at least clean myself even if it was just pouring water on my face.

To be honest, I felt like shit getting up. I think the wounds are still in the healing process. I managed to get to the bathroom all by myself.

I didn't want to bother Mom, she has been through a lot these past few weeks, I looked into the mirror but it was like I was looking at another person entirely.

"Why, hello there, Miss me?" A voice said from the mirror, with a smirk on her face.

I could recognize that smirk even if I was in the dark.

"Sophie?"
