I SEE HER
I think I am having a perfect life, I always excel in my studies, I am always number 1, I am the most popular in school all the boys in my class crush me, some even confessed, but I have rejected their love, I even feel pride when I reject them .what else does a high schooler want?. I want to think this way, but I couldn’t help but notice the daily same routine in my life, I get up early in the morning, study, go to school, then piano class, then cram school I come home eat, study again and I sleep . even a robot’s life would be less mechanical than mine, I wonder how other’s life would be?
Every day I hate myself more because of this boring life, I hope something will change soon, maybe I should go out with friends or do some sport, I don’t know.
A few days after that, I was walking alone outside my house when I saw a familiar face, the face looked so familiar then I saw myself in the window, the face exactly looked like mine! no wonder I felt it familiar. without thinking, I started to follow up, she led to a narrow road, which was very dark, almost dark that I couldn’t see anything. I heard a whisper” Follow me “As I followed her, she turned around and said,” You may not remember, but we used to be together a long time ago “. I couldn’t believe what am I seeing right now. She looks exactly like me in the facial features, the physique, and even wearing my same school uniform.
“I don’t remember anything like that,” I said, I am also sure that I am not a twin. the girl smiled widely.
“what do you want from me ?” I asked
“you are Ms. Perfect right? you have a perfect life which is a dream for many ” she said with a still smile on her lips but her eyes conveyed something else.
“what do you mean?” I asked confused
“you will find out soon miss perfect, but don’t you ever think your life will be easy from now on, “she said still smiling
“Why”
she vanished, I couldn’t see where she went to.
I met my former self, a stranger who looked like me. She told me something was wrong with my life and made me promise not to tell anyone about this incident.
I couldn’t just move on by accepting the fact that she’s just a doppelgänger of mine.
when I tried to go back to my former self, something strange happened. I could feel the presence of something moving in the air and it was making me dizzy and nauseous. I lost consciousness immediately.
****************
there were wires everywhere, some of them are connected to my head and my hand. I could feel the electrical signals in my hand, people were sitting beside me, with electrode
connecting them like mine.
“where am I” I shouted
“shhh, ” I heard a voice in my ear
“Who are you,” I asked, the voice answered ” I am the doctor, the one who’s going to save you ”
“save me from what”
“shshshsh, “the voice said again.
