Chapter 3 I'm Yelena

• "Ahh!"
• I screamed and my eyes jolted open.
• It was so bright and I realised that my surroundings were familiar.
• Then, I noticed that everything was a dream.
• Dream? What dream?
• My mind went blank for a second. I couldn't recall everything that happened after the party.
• I felt like I had forgotten something important!
• I shook my head and got out of bed to freshen up. But as soon as I stood, a sharp pain between my legs almost made me collapse.
• I sat back down on my bed.
• My heart sank.
• What happened to me?
• Did someone drug and assault me at the party?
• How did I get back to the dorm? Was it someone I knew?
• Suddenly, the alarm rang, it was already 10 AM!
• "Shit! I have Mr. Dex's class today!"
• I hurried into the bathroom, washed up quickly, grabbed my books, and ran to the classroom.
• The bald professor was lecturing passionately as I spaced out.
• What did I dream about last night? Why did my memory suddenly become so fuzzy?
• I felt like I was forgetting something important.
• "Ms. Adams! Ms. Adams!" On the podium, Mr. Dex looked at me disapprovingly.
• "Yes!" I stood up in a panic.
• Laughter erupted around me.
• "It seems that you're very confident in this topic. Please come up here and answer my question."
• "Yes, Mr. Dex … " I flushed in embarrassment as I made my way to the front. Everyone's gaze was on me when I nervously solved the math problem.
• "Your answer is right." Mr. Dex nodded, expressionless.
• Some students whistled, others booed.
• …
• After enduring the dreadful morning classes, I immediately ran back to the dorm and collapsed onto the bed.
• I'm so tired.
• Why am I so tired? I slept well last night.
• I was getting more confused and exhausted. Soon, I fell asleep.
• Knock! Knock! Knock!
• In my dream, someone was knocking on my door urgently.
• "Who's there?" I opened my eyes groggily.
• "Samantha, it's me, Yelena."
• I got wide awake immediately! A chill ran down my spine.
• Yelena, who committed suicide two days ago, is knocking on my door at midnight?
• I broke out in a cold sweat.
• "Stop joking around." I tried to keep my voice from trembling, "Who are you?"
• After a moment of silence, the voice spoke again.
• "Samantha, it's me, Yelena."
• I felt my blood freeze.
• The voice outside mechanically repeated the same words.
• The most terrifying thing was that the voice sounded exactly like Yelena.
• Yelena was dead! She couldn't be knocking at my door at midnight!
• I huddled under my blanket, trembling, unable to think of what to do. Suddenly, the voice at the door sounded delighted.
• "Oh, Samantha, you didn't lock the door. I'm coming in."
• I felt like I had fallen into an ice pit, my body froze.
• I forgot to lock the door today.
• Before I could curse my carelessness, the door creaked open.
• The moonlight from the window shone on the monster that was crawling into my room. It had Yelena's face but its body was a mass of mangled flesh and limbs. From the voluptuous breasts, it was clear this monster was female.
• I wanted to scream, but fear stopped me from doing that.
• I could see Yelena's face! This monster had Yelena's face!
• The monster didn't seem to notice my fear. It climbed onto Yelena's seat and started arranging the desk.
• It was doing everything that Yelena usually did when she returned to the dorm.
• Its flesh left disgusting and gruesome blood streaks on the desk.
• I lay frozen in bed, trembling.
• The monster finally noticed my odd behavior and turned to look at me.
• I only noticed that it looked gore, with an eyeball hanging out of the socket.
• However, the monster seemed to be unaware of its appearance. "Samantha, why are you staring at me? Do I look strange?" It asked.
