Chapter 5 - The Tremor

It was five in the morning. Rose woke up terrified from a nightmare unlike any she had ever experienced. She woke up trembling, even crying from sheer fear. She felt as if her heart was being ripped apart. In the nightmare, Rose saw something approaching her. She didn't know what it was, but she was surrounded by it. It was getting closer and closer, shouting, "You are the Chosen One! You are the Chosen One!"

Its voice was so loud and frightening. As Rose tried to escape, it surrounded her from all sides until she was nearly suffocating. Rose woke up in a panic and ran to her mother's room, hugging her tightly. Her mother woke up, startled. "Rose! My dear Rose! What's wrong? Why are you crying?" Rose didn't answer, but her mother didn't force her. She held her and patted her back, saying, "It's okay, Rose, it's okay, my dear. Everything is alright." An hour later, Rose calmed down a little and said sadly, "I had a nightmare. It was very scary." Her mother comforted her and patted her head until she calmed down.

At 7:30 a.m., after Rose had calmed down, she prepared for her exam, but she hadn't eaten anything. She went to the exam on an empty stomach and felt weak. Her mother felt sorry for her and said, "Don't you want to eat something?" Rose replied in a faint voice, "I can't, Mum. I feel nauseous." Her mother asked, "What about the exam? Can you do it?"

"I'll do my best," Rose said weakly. Rose went to take the exam. And there she saw Molly yelling at her!
