Chapter Eight
Nick felt numb but warm inside. Everything was coming to his mind every thought and every memory was coming back to him. Nick felt hopeless at first but now he didn't care anymore. He did anything he could to make sure he stayed alive. He wanted to see Mitch again alive this time not just a mangled corpse. That's all Mitch was in his head. Although he was alive and well waiting for him to wake up. Nick pushed a button by the dummy's ear and he could hear everything that Mitch or anyone was saying.
"Nick seems to be waking up. Although it will take overnight and part of the morning for him to wake up completely," The doctor mentioned.
Nick smiled while hearing this. It was working. Everything was going just as he want it. He was going to be able to wake up and see the real world again. Nick made up a fake world without knowing for four years of his life. Nick was happy was going to wake but at the same time, he didn't how to feel about leaving. The nice guy at the cafe was just made up in Nick's head. However, the guy reminded him of Mitch in some way. Everything was about to become reality. Then Nick remembered something the doctor mentioned before.
"When I wake up I'll only be able to see through one eye," Nick whispered to himself.
As he whispered to himself there was no point of him whispering. No one was around to hear him talk. What was the point of whispering? Nick felt devastated about everything going on. The past four years of his life were fake everything was fake. He sat on the ground not knowing what to do for the meantime before he woke up.
"Nick?" Mitch called out to him.
"Mitch?" Nick asked.
"Hey Nick, You ready to wake up?" Mitch uttered with tears going down his face.
Nick looked up at Mitch and he was different. He had clear tan skin and the injuries were gone. His blue ocean eyes were back. His glasses weren't cracked anymore. His brown hair was fluffy. As for his clothes, they were the same color and not torn up. Mitch was back to his human self again.
"Mitch. You look different," Nick mentioned as he smiled.
"You're waking up. I'm becoming the person I am. Nick, I'm not mad at you I never was. I'm sorry I couldn't save you on the day of your accident. I tried to save it before it happened, but I was too late. The man who pushed you into the tracks is in jail. I'm so sorry Nick," Mitch stuttered and cried, as he dropped to the ground sobbing.
"Mitch I forgive you. I know you tried to save me. I'm glad nothing bad happened to you, Mitch. I couldn't forgive myself if something happened to you," Nick forgave Mitch.
The accident was the man that pushed Nick's fault. Nick hugged Mitch and held him closer to him. Make sure he felt better. Mitch hugged Nick back as he fade away turning into dust. Nick smiled and sat in the dark void for the rest of the night. Nick lay down on the black void ground and looked up and there were stars where the sky would be.
