Black Pen On White Paper
Chapter 28 [The Nightmare]

In the end, almost his entire body was hit by a burning wooden cabinet above his body. No one knows if Petra is stuck in a pile of wood.

Petra was unconscious in the place, in the end, he dreamed he was trapped in a mud pit in the middle of a dark and cold forest. Petra tried to get out of the mud but Petra was too weak for that.

Petra shouted here and there but no one answered. In the end, just as Petra was about to give up, Petra saw two torches at once walking through the shade of the forest trees. As Petra called out to the two who were holding the torch, fortunately they both walked towards her.

When Petra saw the faces of the two men, in fact they were both her future self together with her grandmother. Spontaneous Petra was so shocked at the presence of the two of them.

“grandma? Myself in the future?” petra asked in surprise.

“are you afraid of being in this mudhole?” ask from the future.

“iya, I was so scared” she replied.

“are you sad?” ask yourself in the future.

“iya, I am very sad” he replied.

“do you feel guilty?” ask yourself in the future.

“iya, I feel so guilty” he replied.

“what are you sorry about?” ask yourself in the future.

“iya, I'm so sorry” she replied.

“in the end, you did what I didn't do in my past. I let my grandmother die inside my house and I could do nothing but see my lifeless grandmother walk out of the house. At that moment, I fell and drowned deeper and deeper in this mud pit, but different from you. You managed to save yourself from regret and guilt by saving your grandmother. Now, your grandmother will help you to get out of this mud pit” Petra said in the future.

“what is true?” ask Petra back.

“nak Petra has answered grandmother's questions. Petra wanted pen and paper, and Grandma gave them both. You wrote down your desire to save Lia, and in the end you did. You took Lia's heart donation form, and you proved that the pen and paper that your grandmother gave you were not wasted. Your grandmother is so proud of you. Grandma hope, you do not forget your promise to save Lia” said the grandmother to him.

“ba-lah nek, thank you very much” replied.

“then let your grandmother help you lift you from this mudhole” said the grandmother sticking out her hand.

“good nek” replied Petra nodding her head.

Until finally, when Petra held her grandmother's hand that was so clean using my right hand that was so dirty because of the mud, because, with ease and lightness his grandmother pulled Petra's body trapped half in a thick mud puddle and thick and thick.

But up to the knee of his foot, the grandmother took off his hand and made him still stuck there.The grandmother let Petra's knees remain trapped in the mud puddle.

“why didn't grandma pull me over? My feet are still in it” Petra said.

“it's not grandma's job to pull you out. Grandma just help you” replied the grandmother.

“but grandma, stay a little more” said Petra.

“it's not grandma's job. Grandma just let you out so as not to go too deep. Grandma just wanted to meet my granddaughter for the last time” she said as she removed the scarf she was wearing.

“what does that mean? Where are you going?” petra asked with her heart starting to beat fast.

“maybe, grandma just wants a break. Grandma is tired. Grandma is old. Both of my grandmother's legs can no longer go any further. Now it's your job to save her. Don't forget the reason why you want paper and pen. Write down your goals there and don't lose them. Do not lose it” said the grandmother while turning her body.

“grandma? Where are you going?” petra asked the grandmother.

“grandmother has helped you. Grandma's job is done. In the end, this grandmother of yours can rest in peace” he said with a tone of laughter.

“what did grandma say? Where are you going?” ask Petra back.

“granny just wants a break. Grandma's not leaving. Grandma will always be there beside you. Don't feel like losing your grandmother who can just fall asleep. In the end, this grandmother of yours can rest in peace” he said with a tone of laughter.

“what did grandma say? Where are you going?” ask Petra back.

“granny just wants a break. Let him” said Petra from the future who was next to grandma.

“grandmother simply asks you not to live with a state of guilt and regret. Live in a calm and happy state. Although it is not with grandma, at least your grandmother can feel the same happiness as what you feel” explained the grandmother.

“then, it's time for grandma to return” said Petra who was beside grandma.

“well, I will return” replied the grandmother shaking her head.

“wait a minute, don't go grandma!” suhut Petra stretched out her right arm towards the grandmother who slowly walked away.

Petra yelled many times at the grandmother who was walking along with her twin who was then slowly starting to move away from her and left her in the middle of the cold dark forest.

Her knees were still stuck in the sticky, heavy mud while Petra was unable to move. Petra could only shout many times to call out to the grandmother who began to look invisible because she was so far away.

In the end, Petra was back alone in the place.cold, dark, and silent. All of that surrounded him from behind a sinister darkness.

The drops of tears along with the sound of leaves swaying in the cold breeze of the night make its own melody. Petra could only be silent when she saw her grandmother leave. Petra could do nothing and was unable to save her grandmother.

In that instant, Petra awoke from her nightmare. Slowly Petra opened her eyes, it seemed unclear because her eyes were filled with tears that were relentlessly dripping and dripping on her cheeks.

Petra stared at the sky room, in fact Petra returned to the room Lia. his head was so dizzy that Petra was unable to lift his body and sat on the bed.

His body was sweating coldly, his fever had recovered well. Petra was disturbed by the sweat that filled the eel, and Petra decided to wipe it with her hand wrapped in white bandages.

When Petra intends to wipe the sweat that is in this heed, Petra spontaneously felt if his hand was being held so tightly by someone. Petra raised her hand and saw it.

Petra held her high up until her hand and the hand that was holding her were in front of her face exactly. Petra looked at her white hands, her long fingers, her warm wet palms, and her tiny fingernails.

At that time Petra also knew the palm of the hand.Spontaneously Petra raised his head that was very sick and looked at his right side. Apparently, Petra found out that Lia was asleep while holding her palm.

Lia sat on the bedside chair that Petra was wearing and her head leaned back to sleep on the bed. As Petra looked at it, not a hint of hair covered her cheeks and face. So Petra put away the hair so Petra can look at her face which is so making her heart beat fast.

“turns out he was asleep next to me. As usual, he held my hand until my palm was sweating profusely” he said as he looked towards Lia's face.

At that time, Petra thought about what was happening.The reason, Petra could not remember what happened to Petra and how Petra fell asleep back into this room. Petra tried to remember past events by thinking hard. In the end, Petra felt a little thirsty, so Petra also intended to take water on the table beside her bed.

However, when Petra was about to take the water on the bedside table, Petra found that the frame of the wedding photos of Petra's parents stood upright next to the glass filled with white water.

Petra was so surprised and spontaneous that she remembered everything. Petra recalls her house being hit by a fire. Petra recalled that Petra carried the picture frame. Petra recalls Petra bringing a heart donation form for Lia, and Petra even remembers Petra trying to save her grandmother along with Lia's personal doctor.

Spontaneous Petra was so shocked by all that. Petra remembers everything. Petra looked back at the photo and took it. Instantly at that moment, Petra shed tears and was so moved by her struggle to save the picture frame as one of the memories of her two biological parents.

“I managed to save this. very proud of my own abilities. fortunately nothing was damaged and scratched from the frame of this photo” he said while hugging tightly the picture frame.

Petra again put the picture frame in its original place and then drank a glass of water beside it. After Petra satisfied her thirst, Petrapun looked back at Lia.

“what's he been taking care of me all this time?” petra thought inwardly as she stared at Lia's face beside her.

“dia must be exhausted and overslept. He was also sick, even more vulnerable than the Petra. Maybe I should prioritize his health” he thought to himself.

Just then, Petra opened the blanket that covered her entire body. Apparently, Petra had been hospitalized and was wearing patient clothes. Petra moved from the mattress with Petra's head condition that was still so dizzy with the entire body wrapped in bandages. In the end, Petra managed to stand next to Lia who was asleep.

“he is so funny when sleeping” he said with a little laugh staring at Lia who was asleep.

Petra raised her body quickly and placed it on the bed. Because her body was still completely unhealed, Petra forced herself to lift Lia's body and put it on the bed.

In the end, after a very intense struggle, Petra managed to put Lia's body on the bed and covered her all over. Petra again sipped the water until it ran out and put the glass back in its place.

After that, Petra opened the window. The wind blew so strong and the twilight light began to give its warmth in the room.orange along with the bright red color immediately warmed his body. Petra's eyes were slightly embarrassed and Petra's head reacted to the light.

“I'm a bit of a migraine. Does this house have any medicine?. Hufftt, this twilight light is so warm, I became pee” kebelet thought in heart.
