Novel & Cerita Waking Up Abruptly Heart Racing

I was being cooked alive. “Heartbeat is elevating fast,” the doctor said with alarm. “She’s now at ninety. No, one hundred and forty. Shit. She’ll go into cardiac arrest if this keeps up!” My whole body spasmed and clashed on the medical bed. I couldn’t focus on one specific thing, as the blood heightened all my senses. I didn’t understand what was happening. The only thing I knew was the people in the room with me were looking panicked, scribbling what was happening on their clipboards and waiting to see if I would calm down on my own.

Cherry lay on the floor in shock. Her whole body was numb and frozen in place, not even her eyes moved nor blinked. The only sign that said she was alive is the rise and fall of her chest. What wasn’t normal was the rate her heart was beating, which worsened by the second. The memories which haunted her in the past suddenly came flying through her mind like a fresh wound. The images kept flashing through her eyes it made breathing difficult and stirred up a panic attack, making her nauseous.

I wake with a start, my heart pounding in my chest, as though someone has just jolted me from a deep, suffocating sleep. The room feels off, quiet in a way that makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. My senses prick, sharp and alert, as though some invisible force is pressing down on me, urging me to wake fully.

“Why did you have to let her go?” The night is more difficult to understand and get through, my head explodes when the moon rises while my heart is beating fast. I can't help but wonder, why is my heart beating so much? I know it may be tachycardia, but I don't have any heart problems, I can't have this problem since I am very healthy and young.

I wanted to tear his head off and kick it down the grand staircase. Except... my stupid heart was racing like a damn sports car. Thump-thump-thump, loud, out of control. It was pounding so hard against my ribs I was genuinely convinced the bastard could hear it echoing across the room. I didn't say another word. I spun on my heel, ripped his bedroom door open, and practically sprinted down the corridor like my clothes were on fire, leaving him standing there in the middle of his room. I marched down the hallway, pressing a trembling hand flat against my chest, feeling the chaotic flutter under my ribs.

Zahra's POV I wake with a gasp. My heart is pounding, my breath dragging in short, painful gasps. My chest feels restricted, like something heavy is pressing down on it. My eyes adjust slowly to the dim lighting, shapes sharpening out of the haze, and the unfamiliar room makes every muscle in my body tense. After that dream, my nerves are raw and frayed, and the quiet beeping in the background grates on me until I realise it matches the frantic rhythm of my heart.

"Then tell me. Which unconscious person's heart rate looks like that?" Even as he spoke, the heart monitor spiked—beep after beep, faster and faster.

(Trigger warning⚠️⚠️: panic attack) I can feel my heart racing, my breaths coming too fast and shallow. Everything around me feels like it's closing in, suffocating me. The fluorescent lights overhead are blindingly bright, and the sound of water running is becoming overwhelming. I can feel sweat gathering on the back of my neck and the palms of my hands.

“Why… why aren't you saying anything?” His eyebrow raised even higher than the first time. “I’m saying something, ain't I?" I shook my head, and this time, the pounding headache didn't bother me. My racing heart did, though. It was racing so fast, it felt like I was going to have a heart attack. And since the machines were still connected to my body, my racing heart sent them into a frenzy of rapid beats. That jolted Alexander awake, and I felt him go still, but I didn't look away from his father.

Rachel woke up far too early, and she knew instantly that it wasn’t because of the sun or the alarm or any noise in the mansion. It was nerves—pure, sharp nerves—shooting through her body like a sudden surge of electricity. Her chest felt tight, her heart thumping so fast she wondered if she had accidentally sprinted in her sleep. She pushed herself upright and looked beside her.
