Wake Me When It's Over Chapter 10 A Punishment Without End
"Ms. Collins, what are you doing? Let go of me!"The entire class panicked. The girls screamed and rushed out of the classroom, while the boys tried to pull Mom away."Don't touch her. She's sleeping. You'll wake her up."Mom's strength was frightening. No one could pry her off. It was not until the principal and several security guards rushed in that they finally managed to force her away. The boy collapsed onto the floor, crying uncontrollably."Ms. Collins, snap out of it. That's Sean Laurent, not your daughter." The principal pointed at her, furious. "In your condition, you can't continue teaching. You're suspended."The guards dragged Mom toward the door. She kept twisting back, staring at the now-empty seat. "No… that's Cecelia. My Cecelia isn't asleep—she's just tired." Her voice echoed down the hallway, shrill and hopeless.From that day on, Mom disappeared from the school. She became completely lost in the illusions she had woven for herself, trapped in visions she cou
Wake Me When It's Over Chapter 9 A Mother's Madness
"This family fell apart the moment you locked Cecelia in that spare classroom." Franklin shoved the pen into Mom's hand. "You're a murderer. You don't deserve to be a mother."Mom's hand trembled so badly she could not hold the pen. The divorce papers slipped from her fingers and fell into the snow.Avery hid behind Franklin, not even daring to look at Mom. She clutched his sleeve and whispered anxiously, "Dad, let's go. It's so cold here."Mom suddenly lunged forward and grabbed Avery's arm tightly. "Avery, you can't go. Stay with me, alright? Franklin, give her back to me. She's all I have now!"Avery screamed and wrenched her arm free, stumbling backward in terror. "Let go of me! You're crazy. You'll kill me too!"Franklin shoved Mom away and turned, shielding Avery as they walked off. Their footsteps left a trail of final, unhesitating prints in the snow.Mom collapsed in front of the gravestone, staring at the empty cemetery."Ms. Collins, please accept my condolences." Oli
Wake Me When It's Over Chapter 8 A Family Beyond Repair
"You're lying." Mom raised her hand and slapped Avery hard across the face. "You said your sister could only stay awake by stabbing herself with a compass. Where did you see that?"Avery was stunned. Clutching her cheek, she shrank into the corner. Under Mom's terrifying stare, she finally broke."I… I saw her diagnosis." Avery cried as she confessed, her voice shaking. "I was scared that if you knew she was really sick, you'd give all your attention to her. I was scared you wouldn't love me anymore. So every time, I went along with you. I said she was lazy, and I… I…"She stammered, unable to continue."What else did you do?" Mom demanded, her voice sharp with fury."I… I threw away the medicated oil in her bag before the exams." Avery squeezed her eyes shut, her whole body trembling. "I just wanted her to fall asleep during the test so you'd hate her even more. I didn't mean for her to die."Mom was stunned by the revelation, her entire body freezing in place. All her favoritis
Wake Me When It's Over Chapter 7 The Truth She Tore Apart
She dropped to her knees, her hands trembling uncontrollably as she began piecing the scraps together. They were the medical records she had torn apart with her own hands half a year ago.Back then, my homeroom teacher had suggested taking me to the hospital for a checkup. But Mom had been convinced I was faking it. Right there at the hospital entrance, she had shredded the report into pieces. Now, she was the one painstakingly putting those fragments back together.Under the beam of her phone's flashlight, the reconstructed record became clear. 'Severe narcolepsy with cataplexy. Strongly advised that a guardian accompany the patient for intervention to prevent accidental injury or death.'Mom stared at that line, her breathing turning ragged. "Narcolepsy… cataplexy…" She muttered the words as her fingers clawed unconsciously at the floor.At last, she understood—I had not been lazy. I had not been pretending. I had never been able to control it. And collapsing in the exam hall h
Wake Me When It's Over Chapter 6 The Secret Beneath the Skin
"No. That's impossible." Mom cut the doctor off with chilling composure. She did not cry. She did not make a scene. There was not even the faintest redness in her eyes. Calmly, almost methodically, she opened her handbag and pulled out a small bottle of medicated oil."Doctor, she must've drunk this and poisoned herself. She's gone bad." She shoved the bottle right up to his face. "She's pretending to be dead to get out of exams. She'd do anything if it meant escaping responsibility. Just treat her for poisoning. Once it's handled, she'll wake up."The head of emergency glanced at the ordinary bottle, his brows knitting tightly. "Ms. Collins, this was caused by a head injury. It has nothing to do with that.""What would you know? She's faking it." Mom pushed past him and strode straight into the operating room.Under the harsh surgical lights, I lay quietly on the operating table, covered by a white sheet. Mom walked over and yanked it off in one motion. "Cecelia, stop faking it.
Wake Me When It's Over Chapter 5 Declared Dead
"Ah!"The scream tore through the dead silence of the corridor.Olivia clapped a hand over her mouth, pointing in horror at the dark stain on the floor. "Blood… Ms. Collins, there's a lot of blood.""Why are you making such a fuss? That's just red ink she made herself." Mom frowned impatiently and shot Olivia an annoyed look. "Kids these days will think of anything to get out of an exam.""That's not red ink—that's blood. That really is blood." Olivia's voice trembled as she stumbled backward, then turned and ran. "I'm getting the school doctor. I'm getting Dr. Langford."The school doctor, Lucas Langford, came running less than a minute later. He had not even buttoned his white coat properly, and a first-aid kit was clutched tightly in his hand. The moment he rushed into the spare classroom, he dropped to his knees and reached for my carotid pulse.Seconds ticked by.Lucas' hand began to tremble uncontrollably. He lifted my eyelid and shone a flashlight into it."Dr. Langfor
