Michael.

He who doesn't want to be disturbed was annoyed by the sound of her voice. He doesn't like it for it became a distraction from his rest. Every time Michael is sleeping, his ears hear her calling his name. Fortunately, he can still sleep and take a rest. But unfortunately, it's getting worse. Because after a few days, she started to ask questions like "Michael, how are you? How's your day?" He thinks that it's getting creepy, rather than annoying. Michael had always wanted to tell this to his parents what's happening. But every time Michael tells them, they would just laugh and crack a joke. And they would tell him that you're just hearing things. Somehow, he felt hopeless because he had no one to come to. Even his older brother named Dwight, doesn't believe him. It was so sad because everything Michael said to him when they were still kids, Dwight will always believe him.

When Michael was going to school, he didn't hear any voice coming from her. And he was glad about it. "Finally, it's gone." He was so happy about it. Because of her voice gone, Michael was able to concentrate on his studies for the upcoming test in Economics. He was so happy. But when it was around 12 of the afternoon, he planned to take a nap. Even though Michael's teacher in History is discussing, he still continue to rest.  When he took a nap, he didn't realize it turned into a sleep, a deep sleep. Even though Michael wanted to wake up, but he can't. Michael can't move his body. He was feeling the situation of the mind being awake yet sleeping. He tried to do things that are disturbing to make him wake up. Michael tried to get his class' attention, but he can't. He can't move his body the way he wanted it. And he also tried to move his feet, but it's still no good. Michael really have to wait for his teacher to snap him out of it. But it's taking to long. He never slept for so long, unless a distraction will happen. Something that is annoying. That thing he doesn't like. He needs her voice. "Wake up Michael! He is coming." said the annoying girl.

But thanks to her, Michael woke up sweating so hard from his nervousness, seeing his teacher walking to him. Michael fixed his desk and readied his textbooks. His teacher came with a very scary face. And she looks at him eye to eye.

"Are we alright, Mr Parker?" His teacher said in a very monotonous tone.

"Yes. I am just fine. Thank you." Michael said after he cleared his throat.

"I warn you again. No sleeping during classes, okay?" said the teacher with a very terrifying glare.

Michael was so terrified. So "yes ma'am." was the only thing he can say.

His teacher nodded "Very well." she said with a serious tone in her voice. She then went back in front to continue her discussion. Michael fixed his things and after fixing them, he grabbed a pen and notebook to write notes.

"Michael, what will you say to me?" said the girl in his mind in a laughing manner. She was so hyped knowing that her help will be appreciated.

"I will only say this once. Thank you." Even though he was pissed and annoyed by her irritating voice, he felt warmth. It's a feeling he hasn't experienced for a while, thinking that there is still someone in this world that cares for him. He was thankful, even if it was just all in his mind.

After class, he has gone straight to his locker. He placed everything from his bag inside his locker, except a couple of fiction books. He walked straight in the middle of the hallway towards the exit. He walked alone, being isolated by his classmates and schoolmates. Somehow every person he passes through or tried to talk to, ignored him, isolating him from the others, treating him like he was an outcast, not wanted.

He closed his eyes for he didn't want to see them. He doesn't want to feel alone and yet it's still happening. Michael blinked. Now, he just wanted some peace. Michael blinked again.

        He was surprised, realizing that he is in a different place. A place with blue skies and the weather was warm, he heard a peaceful voice, and it's like a never ending summer above water --above water?  "Hey. You're Michael, right?" he was so surprised. First, he was transferred in a stunning and beautiful place where no one would want to leave. Second, the girl in his mind took form in front of him. Lastly, he doesn't know what to do.

     "Want to be friends?" said the girl with a small smile.

     "Yes." He said without thinking.

   He thought it was a mistake answering her, he doesn't even know anything about her. She's a complete stranger to him. So there's no reason why they should be like this, getting to know each other is just kind of weird. She smiled at him and spoke words which were hard to hear. Then she walked above water, trying to get closer to him. For each step she made, the water reacts like it was hit by a stone continuously without sound. When she got close enough, she pulled out her hand, offering a handshake.

        "By the way, I'm Harriet. It's nice seeing you, Michael." she said with a smile so bright and full of life. And he felt only pure intent within her.

        So he didn't hesitate to reach out to shake hands with her.

        "It's also nice meeting you, Harriet." he said with no regrets. It has been a while since he had talked to someone around his age and he was so glad that he made a friend. Even though he knew that it's all inside of his mind, he still accepted her for who she is because he knows that having a friend matters most. As of the moment, he managed to make a friend, an imaginary one.
