Dark, everything is dark . Where am I ?.. Someone is calling me. " Ele.. get up it's time to go to school " mom said . I awoke. My mom enters my room. " Did you have a nightmare again " she asked concerned. Of course she would be like that 'coz I'm sweating all over . Oh shit . But avoiding everything I went to the bathroom. I completely forgot that today is the day before the start of summer vacation. And I have to recive all the holiday homework today .My all senses get active suddenly. I wore my uniform. My mom knocked my door. " why was your door locked " she asked as I opened the door. She is holding a tray for breakfast. " I was getting dressed " I replied. Don't be late today she said. I finished my breakfast and get ready to go to school . I waved to my mom and left.😁

After the few steps I felt like someone is following me.🤨 I started walking fast. And reached to school. I felt safe as I saw my school gate. Tony , Joj, and Miya are already here. But someone is missing. ****Yes****, where is Steven ? I asked Miya but she said that she don't know. I spend all my time just to think the reason of his absence. I'm not gonna let him copy my homework..😏

In recess, Tony and Joj came to our seat where Miya and me were sitting. " I didn't bring my lunch " Tony said. " it's okay " I said. we three shared our lunch with him. " thank goodness, you didn't bring lunch today . I had to much food today. " I said.😉 After the school we promised to be in touch with each other.

On my way back , I'm still thinking that what would be Steven doing right now ? Meanwhile, I accidentally took the wrong route and get lost. just what is wrong with me . Can't you be a little merciful to me author . How embarrassing for a girl like me, who is 16 years old but don't know her way back. I got that feeling again ,like someone is following me. I'm scared . No hiding now. " who is this , just come out. look I'm gonna report you. Don't you dare think like I'm some easy body. " as I was blabbering nonsense a blue rabbit , wounded, came out of nowhere. Are blue rabbit natural ? I picked it up. And found it astonishing that this rabbit was speaking. " please hel..help me. a dog attacked me." he fainted. I still don't know if it's my imagination but I decided to take him with me . But first I need to get home first. Wondering from here to there I saw a policeman patrolling. Life saved I said in back of my head. I cleared my situation in front of a policeman and he helped me get back to my home. With teary eyes I said " finally ".😢 I'm exhausted..

...----------------...

We knocked the door . My mom opened the door and saw us. Her expressions suddenly changed from worried to happy. And she hugged me tightly. " don't worry I'm home" I sobbed🥺 . She asked the policeman for a tea but he was busy. She showed her gratitude and we went in. Are you hungry ? are you okay ? are you hurt anywhere ? A bunch of questions landed . " I'm okay. Just a little tired . And I don't have any appetite. Thanks mom." I said. She told me to go and rest in my room . She didn't force me to eat. And I know why. Because she is concerned for the rabbit too. " Mom would you like to help me with this " I asked. " with what " she asked. " with this rabbit " I said. She gave me a weird look🤨. You are indeed tired that's what she said. And sent me to my room.

I sitted at the corner of my room with some medical tools and medicines and bandaged him☺. He is still unconscious but cute. For close observation, I kept him on my bed besides me.

In this dark night. I heard some knocking. My dreams are crashed😑." now who?" I said. I rubbed my eyes and switched on the lights. There was no one in my room . Someone knocked my window gently. I opened my window slowly. " may I come in miss " steven showed out of nowhere. " why are you here , at this time and by this way, It is mid of night. " I asked . He came in. " who said that you can come in " I said🧐. " calm down, I'll not do anything wrong " he answered carelessly🤭.

I noticed he is staring down at my bed. " what are you looking at. do you know whose rabbit is this? " I asked. " he is mine " he answered. " Oh , so it's you who left your rabbit on road . He was attacked by a dog ... or.. maybe by something else. But he is injured. " I scolded him. And continued " and I never saw you with any rabbit before. How can you prove that it's yours." I asked. 🤨 " let the rabbit explain then " he replied. Do he take me as a fool. " enough with thi- " totally ignoring me. he went to wake that rabbit up. " how could you do this to an injured animal " I shouted but as low as mom don't hear.

When that bunny opened his eyes, he suddenly ran towards me by dodging him. Now the has actually declared that he is not his master. He looked so cute as he cares my leg.

I frowned at Steven but he just don't look any affected. Maybe guilty but not scared. But suddenly something strange happened. The bunny started talking in human language. 🙄" I'm not coming with you moron. I want to play a little more. I want to properly show my gratitude to this young lady " I am still not believing but . Yes. that bunny talked ..🤐

Steve yelled at him. Okay, now it is going going over my head 🙄. What is going on ? It is definitely a dream. 😴Oh gosh ! I'm dreaming. It's time to wake up ele. I pinched myself. 😖

" ouch..! it hurts " I said . " why the hell are you screaming like a donkey " he teased me. ME . DONKEY. 😡

" how dare you call me donkey, you stupid monkey " I said.😠 And kicked him out of my room , through the window.😤 He took bunny away in dash. After this mess , I really believe that that bunny was really his.

How dare he call me a donkey. I'm the princess of my parents. I'm Elena. 😤

Though I was frustrated but I need to sleep.

I don't want dark circles because of that stupid. So , I went to sleep. 👿

Last night was like a nightmare. I couldn't even sleep well. But before I get late for my school I need to fresh up. I tied my hair neatly.

My mom didn't come to wake me up. But I'm still awake early. I came downstairs for breakfast.

" where are you goin' ele." mom asked. " of course, school mom" I replied. She giggled. " what's wrong mom. Is it Sunday.? " I asked. Then remembered. No , I saw the calendar. It's not Sunday.

" School... Isn't it your first day of summer vacation ?" she said. I made a fool of myself🤡. It is all that stupid boy's fault . And even forgot about asking that why he had visited ?

" I'll change later. But can you clean my first aid box later please. " I requested and sat on the chair. I rested my head on dining table . 😩

" why is first aid box ? were you injured yesterday ? you should've told me ." she said. I can't stand her worrying for me.

" No, mom. I'm fine. It was just bunny who was injured. " I said.

" But you came back alone ele. What bunny? " she said and approached me. 😕 She rested her hand on my head and checked my fever. " Are you sure that you're okay. Tell me " She asked.

I maybe fine now but if this goes on . I will surely go crazy. 🥴

Steve saw him . I pinched myself.

It is still hurting. It can't be an illusion, right?

I assured my mom that I'm fine. Although she was still concerned but she let it slide.

I changed into a casual dress. A black crop top and pink shorts. And rug my hair into a hair band. 😁

I told my mom that I am taking a walk . And maybe , today I will just wander around. I promised that I will be back soon.😄

I called Tony , Joj and Miya one by one and told them that we should meet at an abandoned store behind the school. And plan about spending our vacation time. I tried to call steve but he didn't answer. I particularly wanted to talk to him. 😑

Suddenly someone patted on my shoulder..😱
