Disoriented | #9 | Nekora and Hana

I wake up suddenly. I am confused and disoriented from being woken up by what feels like an earthquake. When I look around, I see Hana sitting next to me with tears streaming down her face. I'm worried, so I grab her hand and ask, "Are you okay? What happened?" As she continues sobbing I can sense that she isn't going to answer me. Instead, she turns away from me and buries herself deeper into the covers. "Please tell me what's wrong." I beg. Hana looks down at the sheets in her hands and says through her tears, "I had a nightmare. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to wake you up. Please go back to sleep..." She whispers quietly. I sigh and lay my head back down on the pillow. The moment my head hits the pillow my eyes are already drooping again. I don't want to lose this precious time to sleep, but my body seems to have other ideas. As I drift back into the land of dreams, I think about the day ahead. Classes are in full swing again tomorrow, and I will have to make it to them no matter what.
