The Time That Made Him What He Is : The Isolation

>>Hael (Childhood)

My eyes fluttered open the same as the tears rolled down my face. 

I was still on the floor, right where I had lost consciousness, "Mom?" And I still called out to her, because she was all I had, I had known only one other person and he was already long gone, "Mom?" But like usual I received no reply.

I couldn't move my body, it was hot and heavy. It felt like I weighed a thousand tons and at the same time it felt like I had no strength.

"I'm sick," I said, "I think…" My voice seemed to echo or maybe that was just me because I felt delirious. I waited for her reply but received none, which was expected. I had never been sick before, or I had been and I don't remember because I was far too young.

I'm sure I'm running a fever though, I read about it. But where is mom?
