- Glyndon Walton: (Song of the chapter: Wildflower by Billie Eilish)
The sun reflected into my eyes, and I groaned in annoyance. The sunlight was unbearable, piercing right through my head.
I turned over, trying to go back to sleep, but it was no use. My head was pounding.
The pain was unbearable. I was still so tired, but the ache made it impossible to rest.
I forced my eyes open, squinting against the light as I glanced around the room. It was too early for anyone to be awake, the kind of quiet that made my headache feel even louder.
Groaning again, I dragged myself out of bed and stumbled to my suitcase.
I rummaged through it, my fingers shaky, until I found the painkillers. Grabbing them along with a cup and the bottle of water I had, I swallowed the pills quickly, desperate for relief.
I flopped back down on the bed, staring at the ceiling, waiting for the pain to subside.
