the mirror

My eyes slowly fluttered open to bright sunlight. I turned over and saw the window showing the sun and white clouds. I turned and saw Summer snoring quitely her hand gripped to the sheets. I placed my hand on hers gently and smiled. "Summer." I whispered. "Wake up sleepy head." I looked at her more as she slept. I slowly sat up in bed. I crawled out of bed and placed Summer in the bed gently.


I looked at her hoping she would wakes up soon. I walked quietly through the empty cantina. Stretched out chairs some half empty glasses of people's drinks. "Wow?" I whispered. I guided my fingers across the wooden tables. I walked behind the counter and grabbed a bottle of sweet tea.  "Hello sir." A voice spoke. I turned around and saw a man with a blue and black vest.  "Who are you?" I stuttered. My hand is trying to reach for something as a weapon. The figure just moved towards him. "Hello I'm Summer's father." The figure smiled.


I dropped whatever was in my hand. "I thought you were going to kill me...." I exhaled. "No why would I kill my daughter's bestest friend?" He laughed. He walked to me and smiled. I laughed a little and smiled happily. "You mean so much to her." He grinned.


I looked at a glowing glass mirror in the far back corner. "Where is everyone?" I asked.  A whisper came through my ears.
"Hunter where's Summer?" He asked. "She's sleeping in the medical room." I answered.
I ran to the room and saw Summer. She laid there curled up in the sheets and blankets. "Oh no we need to wake her!" He panicked. I touched her forehead gently. Her skin was cold and pale. I shook her gently. "Aaaaaauhhhhhh!" Summer screamed. She sat up straight. "Summer it's ok I'm here." I whispered. I held her hand gently. She looked at me and wrapped her arms around me. "Hunter...." She cried. She held me tightly. "Summer it's ok I'm right in front of you." I smiled. "Please don't go....." She whispered. "What do you mean?" I asked. "I don't want to lose you." Summer stuttered. I looked at her she never showed this side of her until when her mother. Her eyes red from tears. I wrap my arms around her carrying. "Ok I won't." I whispered. "We need to rescue the others." She said. "What do you mean?" I asked.
She got up and slowly walked to meet her father. "Dad?" She called. I  looked around only seeing the mirror in the corner.
