I Am LILI
She woke up from a coma that she had fallen when she was 22. She was now a 24 year old woman who seemed to have forgotten her own reality.
Everyone around her thought of her as a pitiful being who had gotten her mind messed up.
She felt out of place as if she didn't belong here. She clearly remembered her life of 22 years, she remembered her birthdays that she celebrated with her parents and some close friends, she remembered having a boyfriend who treated her as if she never existed, she remembered the coffee shop she used to go to every morning before college.
Now when she opened her eyes her reality had been altered, she is now in a body that doesn't remember walking or mundane functions like holding a cup for that matter. And she has a HUSBAND who seems pretentious.
She was confused, frustrated. She thought it to be a dream but everytime she pinched herself she could feel the stinging pain.
Rou, her husband, a guy who might have loved her somewhere along the life but seemed to have forgotten that. He acted as if his life had become something he never thought it could be, he was in deep turmoil. She felt weird thinking he was her husband, she felt her body and mind both reject the idea that now was a fact.
Jack, a guy she met at a cafe, whom she remembered to be her boyfriend whom she disliked but her felt a deep connection towards.
She hadn't ever been herself her whole life, the life she recalled having lived which was told to be some truck of the mind. She didn't believe the do doctors, how could she have made up 22 years of life where she even remembered the color of her dress on her 18 birthday.
The doctor weren't sure, they said they needed to keep check in her memories which seemed to had been replaced by the false memories.
She knew something was wrong, she wasn't herself or better she wasn't in her own life. She was in some else's body.
Now was the question that if she could ever go back to her old life or did she even want to ever go back? She might have wanted to return if things weren't so different, if things weren't so freeing and if a certain someone had not caught her attention.
Not always are people given a chance to live as they would want to, not every day you see people chasing their dreams, or shouting on top of their lungs from a high cliff with their crushes.
But if you are given a chance to turn it all around would you not grab that little bit of courage that you have been saving for a game of chance and dive head first?
What would she do so different that would make her herself, that would scream her name?
