The beginning
I woke up after having a nightmare and started wondering around the room to kill time, suddenly I heard a noise in the wardrobe walking closer to the wardrobe, I saw a light shining so strong and wondered how and where it come from.
opening the door I closed my eyes because the light was too strong, after adjusting my eyes and stepping in, I noticed snow on the floor, looking ahead there was a narrow path surrounded by a thick bush of tall trees. I was amazed by what I saw then I heard mum calling me, Jane Jane wherever are you, running back in my room I saw her opening my bedroom door as I pretended as if I had just waken up.
she greets me and tells me to start preparing for school, my school was 30min away from home, looking at the clock on the wall, it was 20 min to 7. my first class is 7:30. I rushed out and started cleaning up, picking my favourite blue jeans and black top, I picked my bag and started walking to school, passing through the streets, I recalled what I saw in my wardrobe and blushed it out, maybe I was half asleep, it was a dream I comforted myself.
school was a safe heaven for me, it was where i was free to be me, rushing to my desk I bumped in to Chris every girls crush in school. he is a tall well built guy with cute bronde long hair which he usually tied in a ponytail. he looked at me as we made eye contact, his blue eyes so cute I got lost in thoughts. reality brought me back to earth hearing him call my name, Jane are you alright. , is anything the matter, quickly I apologized for my carelessness, sitting down I calmed my nerves as Chris sat in front of me.
school was always a time I looked forward too but was not the case before Chris transferred to my school, been intelligent and weird attracted a lot of bullies but ever since Chris joined us in eighth grande, my school life changed, I had a crush on him since the first day he entered my class and walked straight to the desk in front of me, I always watched girls flirt with him but I never had the courage to say hai. something about him was different but i couldn't figure it out. I felt comfortable around him and it made me sad whenever he missed classes.now in my senior year, I concentrated on college applications and scholarship.
my family could not boast of riches but my hard working father made sure we lacked nothing. we had misunderstandings as a family but nothing serious, we had our backs and never tolarated any one to disrespect us.
I was the fourth girl in the family of two boys and two girls. my brothers and sister are extraordinary siblings. my parents were a loving couple, the married when they where young and brought us up in a Christian home. many are the times I tried to explain what I saw that day but was afraid of been misunderstood.
I was considered the weirdo in the family cause I always insolated my self most of the time and avoided family gatherings or game nights. been the youngest in the house, I couldn't have conversations with my elder siblings cause of age difference. I spent the next three months mostly in my room inspecting my wardrobe, in case there are any secret buttons or magical words I can read out.
every night I wished I could see what I saw, but each day that passed proved me wrong and made me more confident to declare what I saw a dream.
I sat near my window admiring the moon and how brightly it was shining, I felt I was been watched but after looking around, I couldn't see anyone. as I continued admiring the moon I heard wolfs howling and started fantasizing if warewolfs were real.
I was brought to reality when I felt a hand on my shoulder, freaking out I turned to see who touched me but before I could scream, a hand closed my mouth and I panicked then a familiar scent brought Chris my crush to mind, thinking it over I wondered what he was doing in my room but suddenly he started turning me around slowly but as soon as ifaced my intruder, I was shocked to see Chris.
he signaled me to calm down before slowly letting go of me, it took me a minute to come back to reality then I asked what he was doing in my room and how he got in with the windows and door closed. he smiled at me as he walked towards me, with time Jane I will explain everything but now I need to protect you my Luna. what do you mean, please leave my room before I call Dad.
he smiled and pointed towards the wardrobe, turning around I saw the same light I saw a few months ago. looking back at Chris still shocked but with a little excitement, Jane he called out, we need to leave now as he grabbed my hand and lead me in the wardrobe, as we walked in I saw a beautiful garden with beautiful red roses and a cottage a few mitres away. I stoped in my tracks and asked where he was taking me but he looked in my eyes assuring me I was safe with him.
we entered the cottage but I was shocked on how big the inside was. looking around I saw family portraits dating as far back before modern civilization. the furniture were of fine leather and ornaments were of gold, bronze and silver. he signaled for me to take my sit, sitting down opposite to me, he looked in my eyes and said he had a lot of things he wanted to tell me.
