Searching For The Sun
Preface
Turn Off The White
The room was so bright. The white was painful, blinding. I tried to ask them, whoever they were, to turn the searing light off. I couldn’t see past it. I was so tired—My mouth wouldn’t move, just as my limbs. All useless. All unmoving.
A translucent, beautiful woman with dark hair and yellow eyes stayed by my side. She was my possibility, the happiness I was promised but could no longer care about. They suddenly grabbed my wrists and strapped me in. I still couldn’t see past all the white. So bright…like the sun I haven’t seen in so long….
I heard a clang, then indescribable pain rushed through my veins. I screamed until my throat was raw and thrashed wildly in the restraints. This always happened when they dragged me into the white, but I was always taken by surprise. Pain was all I felt, besides the oppressive black.
My screams continued as spots of black bloomed in my vision, staining the blinding white. Finally, it ended. I went limp in the restraints that held me down and I gasped for breath. My possibility gazed at me sadly, as she always did. She sobbed with desperation. She moved closer to me and brushed a hand against my forehead, murmuring comfort in my ear. It was the only solace she could give.
“Alice, do you see the future?” a bored voice asked.
The possibility of me nodded her head.
“Yes,” I gasped. I always obeyed the possibility. She promised me freedom if I did as she said. I didn’t have the will to care anymore. I just wanted to curl up into a ball, keep curling until I was nothing. I didn’t want to live.
The pain shot through me again. As I screamed and writhed, another vision slipped over me. My possibility and Jasper holding hands, together…happy…their locked hands looked like a promise. A promise…
The promise dissolved as soon as I opened my eyes. The white blinded me again, and I swayed from exhaustion. There was no hope, no promise, here. Just the blackness of the cell and the white of this room where I died a little more inside.
“What year is it?” I gasped.
“1917, Mary Alice,” the doctor said.
“Three more years, darling,” my possibility said. “You turned 16 three weeks ago.”
“Three more years until what?” I screamed at her, oddly emotional. “You promise me all these things, yet never do you deliver!”
The doctor sighed, then flicked the switch again.
My screams went unheard.
