I'm Hayley Martin. A regular girl with an extremely normal life like everyone else's. Growing up in a middle class house, with divorced parents was hard but I've got used to it.
While everyone around me dated, fell in love, and some of them even got married... I studied, and studied for a great college and well paid job as my only dream.
So here I am, studying in one of most famous colleges in the world. Howard's University. Life here didn't offered much of a change like I thought it would.
Everything was going normal until that day... MY 24TH BIRTHDAY.
That voice came as a faded whisper and became an unbreakable part of my life.
No..... Who's Cami...? Why this name? Why do I keep hearing the same thing....?!
This voice... Its him... I know it... his voice is something I could never forget once I heard it...
"𝒀𝒐𝒖'𝒓𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒎𝒐𝒔𝒕 𝒑𝒓𝒆𝒄𝒊𝒐𝒖𝒔 𝒈𝒊𝒇𝒕 𝒐𝒇 𝒎𝒚 𝒍𝒊𝒇𝒆"
Again! AGAIN THAT SAME DREAM!
I've been seeing the same dream since my birthday. It hasn't stopped and by every passing time, I feel more closer to that person who appears in those dreams.
Those words "𝑴𝒚 𝒔𝒘𝒆𝒆𝒕 𝒈𝒊𝒓𝒍" , "𝑴𝒚 𝒑𝒓𝒆𝒄𝒊𝒐𝒖𝒔" , "𝑴𝒚 𝒍𝒐𝒗𝒆" and "𝑴𝒚 𝒍𝒊𝒇𝒆"
I never saw his face but I feel like I'll recognize him in a second if I ever saw him.
"And right here, is the potrait of 𝑷𝑹𝑰𝑵𝑪𝑬𝑺𝑺 𝑪𝑨𝑴𝑰𝑳𝑳𝑬 𝑭𝑹𝑨𝑵𝑪𝑨𝑰𝑺 𝑭𝑰𝑳𝑳𝑶𝑵 with her epic love, 𝑺𝑨𝑴𝑼𝑬𝑳 𝑫𝑹𝑨𝑲𝑬 𝑨𝑼𝑮𝑼𝑺𝑻𝑼𝑺.

Camille...? Samuel...? They-
"Oh My, Miss you look very much similar to Princess Camille. What a coincidence"
Hayley Martin
Y-Yeah. Coincidence... Its a coincidence. T-That totally makes sense.
Hayley Martin
**No... No... I'm thinking too much. It has to be a coincidence**
Hayley Martin
**I've seen him... I've seen him somewhere... before... **

◇◇◇{Author's note}◇◇◇
Hello my dear readers, So happy to share my 6th story with you guys. I hope you find it to your liking and support me like you always did. Now, most of you know, that I'm done with my class 10th exams and now I'm in class 11th. So, studies would be my top priority from now on... So I request y'all not to hope for regular updates. I won't be able to do that anymore. I know, updating regularly every morning was my thing but now i seriously doubt if it'd be possible. I will update when I could and I'll write longer chapters to make it up to you guys. So do support and encourage me with your likes and comments. love y'all. Enjoy reading :)))
Chapter 1
In the vast serene land of Beverly hills, The gardens stretched as far as the eyes could see.
With every step, the soft rustle of grasses beneath legs could be heard along with the cool breeze coming from West.
A pale pink corset hugged her petite body, flowing free from the waist making a huge round cancun. Soft brown curls reaching down her waist, bouncing along with every step she took.
Camille François Fillon
"Yes?"
"My, you're looking rather...."
Camille François Fillon
"My Lord, You're experienced enough to know that you're never supposed to tell a lady she looks tired."
Camille François Fillon
"Or Are you not?"
"I suppose you're right. Though I actually was going for... lovely, I believe"
She let out a hearty chuckle. Her laugh was like a blooming flower shining under the bright sunlight. Pale olive skin brightening with the crimson red blush like glow...
My professor's lung ripping yell snapped me back to my senses. I stood up from my seat, now realizing the surroundings.
I gulped down, looking around the snickering faces of my classmates and the fuming professor in front of me.
"If you find my class boring. Respectfully SEE YOURSELF OUT"
Hayley Martin
No, No, No... Mr. Walker... I was just-
"No excuses! This type of behavior won't be tolerated again! Now sit down and MIND YOURSELF MISS MARTIN"
Hayley Martin
Sorry professor....
I mumbled as I groaned internally, slumping down on my seat. The fact that I did the same thing yet again makes me wanna beat tf out of me.
leaning my face on my palm, my hand rested against the desk. I tried hard to focus on the lecture rather than.... Well let's not think about it.
I turned my head a little to look at Selena, my best friend, who was sitting behind me. I leaned back on my seat to listen to her.
Hayley Martin
Yeah.... I'll kill myself soon.
"Silence! I don't wanna hear any murmurs!"
Selena Ford
tell me later.
I showed her a thumbs up as I slowly moved back to my respective place, waiting for the godforsaken lecture to end.
--After the lecture ended--
Slinging my bag to my shoulder, I wrapped up my stuff about to leave when someone suddenly jumped on me.
Hayley Martin
JESUS CHRIST!
Selena Ford
Relax gurly, its me.!
Hayley Martin
Don't scare me like that... *signed*
Selena Ford
Why do you get so worked up over trivial things? Chill.
She laughed lightly as we walked out of our classroom together.... though she kept talking like she already does but I couldn't focus for more than a minute.
My concentration was not on good terms with me lately... The moment I get some time alone, I just seem to... go somewhere else, away from this land... far, far away.
Selena Ford
You're doing it again.
She tapped on my head, bringing me back to my overthinking train.
Hayley Martin
Sh!t! I... I'm not doing it intentionally. What's wrong with me? aghh.... *groaned*
Selena Ford
Sweet Jesus. Would you stop being so worried? There's nothing wrong! You're just having some weird a$$ dreams! it'll stop don't worry!
Hayley Martin
What if it doesn't?
I whined like a baby... I was truly tired of this charade... and I sure as hell would trade anything for these, slow torture of a storyline I keep watching in my dreams, to go away.
Selena Ford
Then we'll put a camera inside your head and see it together. Alright?🙂🙂
A low chuckle escaped my lips. Seeing my face, she burst into a loud laugh as I joined her.
Hayley Martin
You're the best.
Chapter 2
Inside the canteen, Selena and I sat opposite to each other with the food kept untouched in front of us.
The dreams were getting so frequent and so confusing... that I don't even wish to eat until I know what it really is which I I guess I'll never know.
Taking a bite from the food... Selena looked at me as she continued to talk.
Selena Ford
So what was it this time? *raised eyebrows*
Sighing defeated, I leaned over the table so only she could hear what absurd I was gonna talk.
Hayley Martin
I saw her again... Someone named Cami... She looked like me but she was totally different from me.... I.. I.. don't know how to explain...
Selena Ford
Got it. She looked like you but she was totally different person as a whole... correct?
Hayley Martin
Right. And she was talking to someone... "my lord" that's what she calls that person....
Selena Ford
did you see him??
Hayley Martin
No... I never saw his face.. Its hazy.. and blurred...
She sighed putting down the fork back on the plate... she tapped on the table frustratingly.
Selena Ford
You watched bridgeton a few days ago, didn't you?
Hayley Martin
I did.... why?
Selena Ford
That's why you're having dreams about the 90s or whatever era it was... Its clearly because you're subconscious mind is hung upon that !
Hayley Martin
I don't think that's what it is.
Selena Ford
then what? that's the only reasonable explanation for all of this.
She shrugged, digging back into her food. I exhaled a rough breath, leaning back on the chair. What Selena was saying was a perfect reasonable explanation indeed but...
Only I knew how REAL it felt. Those dreams felt like there's real person whose life I've been watching in my dreams.
I tapped on the table, sucking my cheeks in as I thought hard to find a way to stop this nightmare ANYHOW.
Hayley Martin
*stood up abruptly*
I got it!!
Selena Ford
uhhh...... what?
Hayley Martin
I need a therapist! That's it. I'm stressed, depressed and everything that ends with 'ssed' !!
Grabbing my bag from the seat, I jumped out of my seat making my way out already as Selena proceeded what I just said.
Selena Ford
W-Wait.... We've got two more lectures Hayley!!
Hayley Martin
Take a leave for me, will you?! You know the reason, love ya!!
I blowed a flying kiss to her as I sprinted outside.... Hopping on my scooter, I drove to back to my house.
As a child with divorced parents, my mental health was nothing less than ruined. So my parents took me to a Therapist, Dr. Smith. He really helped me a lot with my teenage traumas.
Though I haven't seen him for a long time but I think now's the time to see him again. Perhaps he can help.
I racked through my stuff, trying to find the number I wrote in one my diaries.
Hayley Martin
Please... Please... where's it- GOT IT!!
With another light of hope burning bright inside me, I dialed the number and his secretary picked it up.
"Yes, How may I help you?"
Hayley Martin
Ah hello, I'm Hayley Martin. I wanna schedule a therapy session with Dr. Smith. Today if its possible?
"Please hold on a moment"
"You can come at 8 o'clock at night. He's free then"
Hayley Martin
Yes I-I'll be there. thank you very much!
I went to the Therapist clinic. Walking down the narrow hallway to his therapy room... It brought back memories of my teenage.
The fights, the screams, the yells, the heartbreaks, the cries.... Everything came flooding back.
Exhaling a deep breath, I chose not to ponder over the dark memories of childhood.
Hayley Martin
*knocks on the door*
Um.. He sounds the same after all these years? Shouldn't Dr. Smith be old by now? He sounds surprisingly young...
Shrugging away the thought, I pushed open the door only to find a tall figure, leaning over the table, writing something in a file.
The neat black suit hugged his body perfectly, underlining his biceps and chest muscles spectacularly, his veiny hand rested upon the glass table, clasped inside a black wrist watch.
His sharp jawline covered with the dark coarse-spade shaped beard. Jet black hair, combed back creating a neat yet sexy look....
Goddayummmnnnn.... Who is he?
Andrew Smith
.....Miss Martin?
