Following a Whisper

@@

My complete nothingness was interrupted.

Footsteps make a steady beat down the hall as a guard comes to the door.The door is pushed open to reveal a short man that around 50 with a wide face and big nose.He looks new and mean.

"Hellooooo.I've come here to give you your food...Hmm...Oh!Right, I'm also here to tell you that you'll be visiting the doctor in a few days, so you should be on your best behavior."He says looking at his phone and not even glancing inside.It's only when he takes a fast peek that he see a empty room with mysterious shards.

He exhales sharply, disrupting the frigid air in the room and rubs his eyes.When he looks again, he sees a girl with knee length blue hair facing away from him.

"Ah, um.Well-l just be good tomorrow!"And then he rushes out the door with a bang.

I look around the room in bewilderment.

"Eh?"

"EH?"

One minute I was shattered, the next I'm sitting on the freezing ground.Which isn't...So freezing anymore.

The air is actually warm...Somehow.

I stand up on unsteady legs and look around.Except for some reason, that doesn't work as well as it used to.Because as I reach a hand up to my left eye, I notice that it's gone.

No pain, no stinging, no blood.It's just gone.

And then the shock sets in, hard.Shock at how one minute ago, I was billions of shards, one minute ago it was freezing and now it isn't, and how I only have one eye.One eye!

...Calm.I'm calm.I'm really calm.

Because I'm fine.Totally fine.I for sure didn't experience excruciating pain, almost freeze to death, or a loss of a important part of my body.

Yep.For sure.@@
