The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Sophia was woken up by the pain that night. Her stomach was burning, while she felt awfully nauseous. In a daze, she climbed out of her bed and stumbled toward the bathroom.

She clutched her stomach all the way through and didn’t turn on the lights. Sophia rummaged around by memory until she got to the basin, then she puked. Instinctively, she thought it was bile. The light switch was right beside her, so she turned it on, but what greeted her was a horror scene filled with blood.

She closed her eyes. This wasn’t the first time this happened, so she didn’t panic. Sophia turned on the faucet to drain her blood out, then she gurgled. A moment later, she went back to her bed, still feeling dreary.

She took her phone from beside the pillow and checked the time. One in the morning. Sophia inexplicably felt like laughing. If I die here right now, nobody will probably find out.

All her fear, anger, and sadness welled up, but Sophia pushed through them. She lay down on the bed, planning to tough this out until morning, but ten minutes later, the nausea attacked again.

She quickly went to the bathroom, and after another round of puking, she thought this would kill her. Stumbling and wobbling, Sophia quickly went back to her bed, thinking she should call Zack, for only he could help her here.

Her stomach was churning badly, and she broke out in cold sweat. With shivering hands, she opened her contacts and squinted at the names. After finding Zack’s number, she called him.

The phone started beeping, so she put it down and curled up with her hands on her stomach. It only took a few seconds for Zack to pick it up, but it felt like an eternity.

“Hello?” He sounded hoarse.
