My Hockey Alpha Chapter 193

Mutiny

Nina

I woke up the next morning feeling somewhat excited to the dance, which was finally happening that night. After everything that had happened recently, Jessica and Lori were right when they said that I needed to relax a little bit and have some fun. Of course, I could only have so much fun without Enzo, but I knew that he wouldn’t want me to kill myself with exhaustion, so I decided to take my friends’ advice and just try to enjoy the day.

That morning, I woke up to the sound of the birds singing outside and the sun shining through my window. Even though it was a cold day, it was still bright and sunny, and it made me happy to know that the birds would still sing and that the sun would still rise despite all of the horrors that I had been through. In a way, that simple realization filled me with a renewed sense of strength and hope.

I climbed out of bed and immediately made my way to the shower, feeling relief wash over me as the hot water ran across my skin. I even took extra time to thoroughly wash my hair, shave, and exfoliate, as though doing all of these things would somehow cleanse away all of the heartache; because today, I needed to just focus on relaxing. If I didn’t do that, then I was certain I would only keep seeing these hallucinations, and I would never manage to find Enzo or recreate the antidote if they didn’t stop.

After my shower, I headed out to the kitchen.

Lori and Jessica were already awake.

“Mm,” I said as I walked into the kitchen. “Smells good. Pancakes?”

Jessica smiled as she flipped a pancake on the stove. “Someone seems like she’s in a good mood this morning,” she said. Meanwhile, Lori sat slumped at the counter with a cup of coffee in her hand. Her eyes were barely open, but she gave me a smile nonetheless.
