"Okay, this is giving me a damn headache. I should just sleep," I said to myself, and not soon enough, I dozzed off. 

I was running, or more like, I was trying to run. I heard a lullaby.

~"𝑺𝒕𝒂𝒚 𝒔𝒂𝒇𝒆, 𝒎𝒚 𝒅𝒆𝒂𝒓

𝑻𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆 𝒊𝒔 𝒏𝒐𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒐 𝒇𝒆𝒂𝒓

𝑰 𝒘𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒉𝒖𝒈 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒕𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕

𝒀𝒐𝒖 𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒎𝒚 𝒃𝒓𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒕 𝒍𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕

𝑪𝒐𝒎𝒆 𝒕𝒐 𝒎𝒆, 𝒎𝒚 𝒅𝒆𝒂𝒓 𝒄𝒉𝒊𝒍𝒅" ~

I followed that lullaby and saw someone, but her face wasn't visible. But I could recognize this sound, and it was like I knew this lullaby, so I sat beside her scrubbed-painting face and started singing with her. 


~"𝑯𝒐𝒍𝒅 𝒎𝒚 𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒅

𝑪𝒐𝒎𝒆 𝒕𝒐 𝒎𝒆

𝑰 𝒘𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒔𝒉𝒐𝒘 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒘𝒂𝒚

𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝒔𝒌𝒊𝒆𝒔 𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒈𝒓𝒂𝒚

𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝒑𝒐𝒏𝒅 𝒊𝒔 𝒃𝒍𝒖𝒆

𝑶𝒏𝒆 𝒅𝒂𝒚, 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒘𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒈𝒓𝒐𝒘

𝑴𝒚 𝑪𝒉𝒊𝒍𝒅 𝒊𝒏 𝒘𝒐𝒆"~

Suddenly things started to blur together, and the woman who was singing vanished as I shouted her name, "Linette." The name echoed, and then...

"Woah!" I exclaimed. I woke up with a cold sweat and visible confusion.

"What the heck?" I wondered.
