True Luna by Tessa Lilly

Chapter 39 Confused

Emma POV

What the hell was going on? Was I really awake? Was this really happening?

This couldn’t be real, right?

I was imagining it.

Yes. I was still dreaming or I was dead and my mind created this world where I was safe with my brother. Because it didn’t make any sense for all of this to be true. Why would my brother believe me all of a sudden? Why would Logan accept me now? It wasn’t like I had gotten any stronger. On the contrary, actually. I was even weaker now. I’d lost weight and my whole body was in pain. I couldn’t feel Eliza. I was useless.

But why was I imagining myself in a hospital and not at home in my bed? That would have definitely been better.

I was staring at the door, barely breathing.

What do I do? Could I go outside? Could

I even move?

I really wanted to find my parents. Would I be able to see them here? | should, right? If my mind created this place, I should be able to see my mom and dad.

But before I could move, the door to my room opened and doctor Wren walked inside.

His smile disappeared from his face as soon as he saw me. He hurried toward my bed and looked at the machines surrounding me. He was looking at them for a while before checking my IVs. He finally looked down at me.

“What’s wrong, Emma?” he asked,

sitting down on the chair next to my bed. “You looked like you were going to pass out when I walked inside.”

Could I tell him? Could I ask him about my parents? If I imagined him and created this place in my mind, he would be able to help me, right? I was staring at him, nibbling on my bottom lip, trying to decide if I should say something. Would he think that I was crazy?

“Emma?” he called me, taking my hand in his.
