She felt an abandoned box
brushing her fingers as she moved her hands through the loft. Curious, she
decided to check the box leaving the cleaning for later. Heaving the ladder
from her room she props it along the loft at her attic, with full of
anticipation of untold stories and treasured memories. She pulled the heavy box
closer to her only to be slightly disappointed at the sight of glass balls
stacked together with names scribbled on them. A souvenir of sorts she thought.
Nevertheless, she tries to pick one of them when it accidentally slips out of
her hand falling with a crash! In a panic, she looks down towards shattering
glass ball trying to save it, belatedly. But, instead she stood there startled,
at the sight of a man not much older than her, stretching himself and rubbing
his eyes as if awaken from deep slumber. She then heard his gruff voice as he
said "I am finally free". With sleepy eyes he says "after years
of being frozen, a glass of water is all I need". As he find her surprised
face he quickly quips "your lips would do fine too my dear! You are the
one I have been waiting for"
