?????|?.? [?????????]

There was no logic answer to why i had that shit inside of me.

'born with it'? that's bullshit.

The door spontaneously opened, revealing the last person i had expected to lay my eyes on.

Before i was able to make questions, Melanie practically swallowed me in a hug, not even minding our half naked frames.

"holy shit, i thought you were dead!" she exclaimed as her eyes glimmered in happiness.

"dead?" i raised my eyebrows as the brunette girl excused herself from the room.

"yeah, you were supposed to wake up hours ago" she replied, confusing me even more.

then, noticing my confusion, she explained.

"i heard the doctors talking"

understanding, i nodded, before changing the topic.

"Is Mia here?" i questioned, trying my best to ignore the burning sensation on my back.

"i don't know" Melanie sighed whilst sitting on the loveseat adjacent to the place i woke up in, "haven't heard anything from her since we got in here"

"speaking of that" i turned around to face her, "how the fuck did we even get here?"

"again, i don't know" She replied, "last thing i remember is being dragged"

"you also have that shit in your back" She commented once i turned back around, "they put one in me a few hours ago"

"i got told that i was born with it" My eyebrows furrowed as i undid the bun, letting my hair cover the symbol.

The door opened for a third time, interrupting our conversation and revealing a visibly exhausted black haired girl.

She handed us two coat hangers with comfortable clothes, before silently telling us to dress up.

Questioning her mood, both of us slid into the hoodies and sweatpants handed to us, which had our names already written on it.

"why does this smell so good?" Melanie questioned while quietly snuffling her pink sleeves.

"why are you sniffing your clothes?" i questioned back with furrowed eyebrows.

"follow me" The short girl cleared her throat, causing both of us to divert our attention to her before proceeding to follow her out of the room.

The corridor was vast and clean, our steps being the only audible thing.

it was somewhat cold and our bare feet didn't really help, but the clothes were still quite enough to keep us warm.

After going through an elevator and yet another empty corridor, we got escorted into another room, only this time, it was more like a waiting area with a couch, a love seat, two armchairs, a flat screen and a fireplace.

The whole inner decoration of the place was quite impressive.

"you'll get in soon" She groggily uttered before exiting the room.
