The sounds are all there. The smells are the same. Everything is identical, even down to the dry mouth and ill-tasting stinky breath I have going on.

This twisted déjà vu is meant to torture me, twisting the knife into my already tattered heart. I hear my mom and Grayson. Their tired, worried voices seem amplified in this vacuum of despair. Every word they speak makes its way directly to me, despite their hushed tones.

I try to block them out, but it is useless. The conversation gets interesting when a third voice enters the discussion. It comes from a male, probably older, with a slight accent. The sound of his voice is soothing, so I listen. They seem to be continuing a discussion from earlier, but from what I can gather, I must have fainted while Grace was delivering her baby and hit my head on the way down. The doctors were initially concerned because of my previous head trauma, but the doctor currently speaking is confident that I will wake up once the medicine wears off. The scans that they did while I was under show no visible trauma.

I’ll be okay.

But I won’t.

My mom argues that I’m not fine. I agree with her for once. The terms depression, depersonalization disorder, and delusional disorder get thrown into the mix. Medications and therapies begin to be discussed, and it is at this point when I decide I’m bored with this conversation.

I woke up to a reality that was not my own once before. I’m not too thrilled about this repeat performance. I don’t want to face a world without Aiden again.

Why can’t I wake up and have my life back? I don’t want this one.

Perhaps, if I sleep long enough, it will all go away.

Blocking out the voices, I concentrate on the blackness in my mind until darkness is all there is.
