Chapter 4 - Chapter 4: Confusion

.....All of sudden his world changed. At one moment he was hearing and experiencing something that was unusual for his world while on the other he has his sensation of coming out of a long dream . It was hard for him to open his eyes as if he was drugged and couldn't resist being into that world . A pungent scent and hard bed whole room decorated in white , a girl beside him sitting on a chair on the right side and on left side he could see his friend Darius beside him. It was Callie whom he saw sitting beside; his classmate as well as one of his best friend he could share his life sorrow and happiness together. She in his eyes was cute , someone who's cuteness is hard to resist . Her character upholded her name. Beautiful in every aspect except that she was quite clumsy when being herself. Her attire was of a teenage girl who don't much enjoy fashion to much extent yet whatever she wore couldn't hide the beauty of her. Lycoris right after waking up came into panicking , though he was already on his senses he still couldn't get off that feeling that he had experienced.He hurriedly asked with shear belief " Darius what you said to me was it for real?". Darius being confused with his half assed question questioned him"about what ?" . For a moment Lycoris frozen in the time of his owns . Thoughts clashed on him , questioned the reality of his own . After some time he couldn't think of no more as everything was already full of confusion. Over the time Lycoris came to realise what he had experienced was merely illusion and sighed of relief .Sometimes questioning is good , you may get right or wrong answer but having even a little doubt on your answer is what brings out the hidden words in the answer. He experienced something which was beyond human logic yet something that could be comprehended. Dream -Illusion or Longing that's what human give meaning to things that they somehow aren't able to get to the point , yet are right Infront of it. They are feigning of the wall that's Infront of them which is what brings out the term dream or illusion.Darius seems completely in shock and asked ,"Lycoris , Why is your pupil colors fading ? Wait now it's turning red . Do you feel pain in your eyes ? Can you see or not ?"After listening him with intense look , Lycoris didn't say anything for few minutes. He stood still in his position silence rose in the room. Chill wind blew making the white curtain its medium to show the coldness the room hold. Even Callie was stunned for moments till Lycoris spoke with a grinning face , " Exactly , Pain , See , RED....". Darius and Callie were shocked and frightened with what they saw. To Lycoris it was merely mumbling due to confusion as he didn't know his face turned creepy while his thoughts collapsed in the depth of confusion.But for his best friend and the girl Callie it felt like they were looking at someone who was right on the track of killing them.Before anyone could speak about their fear , a sharp wind came into the through window which broke the vase beside the bed. The red rose in the vase rolled to the leg of Callie and all of sudden rose turned white.Looking at this both of them now we're scared to death ; one more incident as such and then dying of heart attack wouldn't be a big thing.Darius and Callie looked at Lycoris and were about to say about the vase but Lycoris has now fallen asleep.A day has passed Another day has passedNow it's the third day since Lycoris fell asleep but there's no news of him being awake yet. The very fine Lycoris all of sudden fell asleep as soon as the rose lost it's colour. Darius and Callie didn't say anything about this to anyone and kept this as a secret to themselves.In there mind , they only thought of this to be a coincidence. But is it really the case. From awaking to the asleep of Lycoris , very few words were spoken yet those all words felt so heavy for Callie to bear. Mr. Cezer , the man with heavy responsibilities of every child in the school felt very uneasy about this incident. He went in the ward to check on the child who hasn't opened his eyes for many days and the doctors can't even pinpoint what's the reason.The very unusual thing , the rose , which could be a factor of the Lycoris case was kept secretly by his best friend Darius. Mr.Cezar a man of unknowns looked at Lycoris ward and at a glance he knew something had happened which should not be disclosed to any body.Darius on the other hand afraid of something happening to his friend due to his eye came to ask for help to his brother Solas.Solas was man of unknowns as much as Mr.Cezar. Solas , what he do is something even his parents are unaware of which is why Darius felt reluctant to ask help from anyone but only his brother."Brother , I have something I want to talk about . Though you never listen to me most of the time but just this once take my words seriously. I have come to encounter something very different, very unheard of .", said hurriedly.Solas was sitting on his sofa holding the book named " The beginning " a psycholoical book towards life. Solas with composed demeanour said to Darius," Ok continue I'm listening. Take a breathe first , you seemed to be like a rat hiding out of fear from a cat."Darius took a breathe of relief and said ," Brother, do you think roses can lose it's colour out of nowhere? I saw , and not that but also I saw Lycoris eyes slowly changing into red crimson and then all of sudden he mumbled something really weird." Solas eye sharpened for split of a second and then he regained his composure and told Darius that he must have seen wrong or imagining and to forget about it.On the other hand Mr.Cezar took a pulse of Lycoris and left the hard with a tensed face.Mrs. Gaea looked at the window from the ground standing firmly beside the tree....
