7. Needing Him

"What are you doing here my child?" her old shaky raspy voice woke me up. I slowly opened my eyes and looked to my left where her voice was coming from, and there she was laying down beside me. Her wrinkled face, her rotten teeth her dark eyes facing me, her nails scraped my bare arm as she was touching me.

I was terrified, my tears flowed, I was trying to get up from my dream. It felt like a dream, I couldn't smell her, I was safe, it was a dream, I just had to wake up.
