When the cold water poured into my nose, the last thought in my mind was - I haven't handed in my thesis yet.
Then came the overwhelming feeling of suffocation.
I struggled desperately, using my hands and feet, but I felt someone pressing down on the top of my head. There were vague cries in my ears, mixed with a few screams of "Miss" and "Save Miss".
Pain.
My temple felt like being pricked by needles, and a bunch of memory fragments that didn't belong to me were crazily stuffed into my head. The prince's house, the silly girl, the wedding, the fiancé... It was such a mess that I almost had a concussion on the spot.
