The process

I find myself in a vast, black space. There's a strange sensation of weightlessness, and while I feel light and free, a creeping sense of fear also washes over me. Suddenly, a soft voice begins to speak, soothing me momentarily.

Voice: "You are in a safe space, preparing for the interview."

Me: "What interview? I don’t know what you’re talking about. What is this place?"

Voice: "Be patient. The process is almost completed."

Nervousness wells up within me again as I realize I can't feel my body. Panic starts to set in.

Me: "What process? Why can’t I feel my body? I want to leave here!"

Voice: "Do not resist the process. It will all pass in a moment. Trust that you are safe."

The calm assurance in the voice makes me pause. Despite my fear, there’s something comforting in the voice’s tone. I try to focus on my breathing, hoping this bizarre situation resolves soon.
