Episode 1: Comma

A garden full of roses, a lake surrounded by small animals, beautiful cherry blossoms making a carpet with their fallen flowers, and then...a guy. The most gorgeous guy ever, his hair dancing with the wind, his eyes lost in the beauty of the place, long eyelashes, and such angelical feautures, he was...ethereal. But, who was he?

“Maraya, are you okay? Finally, you are awake. We have been so worried about you! We thought...we thought we lost you! Quickly, go look for the doctor!”

I try to adjust to the lighting before me as I start opening my eyes. Was I asleep? I try to pinpoint what was going on, before I’m tore from my blank state once again.

“Oh, my God! Maraya, please answer us! Are you okay? How do you feel? Do you feel pain anywhere?”

“I...A-Alice?”

I rasp out as I realize the one who took me out of my blank state was Alice. My childhood friend. We have been friends since always, and right now she looked really panicked. I have never seen her like this...there most be something wrong.

“I- Where am I? And what’s going on, Alice? Where is this place?” I try to voice out but I find it really hard to open my mouth and articulate.

“Maraya, you where in an accident! Don’t you remember? We are at the hospital right now. You have been on coma for 2 weeks.” She said as tears streamed down her face. “We thought you would never wake up!”

“I was in an accident? W-What do you mean? H-How did it happen? What kind of accident are you talking about?” I said trying to sit up in the bed.

“Stop it, Maraya! Don’t force yourself! We can talk about how you got into your accident later. Now the important thing id how are you feeling”. Alice scolded me while pushing me gently into the bed again.

“Alice, I’m fi-“ I start saying, but suddenly realized that there was someone in the corner of the room...a man. He was sitting on a chair with his head down when he suddenly raised his head and locked eyes with me. It was...it was that man! The one from my dream. That gorgeous man was in my room. Was he real? Or was I hallucinating?

“Alice...who is that guy?” I said as I quickly turn away from his gaze.

“What? Maraya, what are you talking about?”

“I’m asking who is that guy?”

“What do you mean who is that guy, Maraya? Stop playing around. We were so worried about you. This is not the time to be playing around.”

“Alice, I’m serious, who is that guy?”

“W-what? Stop joking, you clearly know who he is.”

“Alice, I’m telling you I don’t know! Who is that guy?”

“It-It can’t be. This can’t be possible. Maraya, he is you husband!”
