I was sleeping......

[In my dream]

Everyone is fighting with that tree monster. They are fighting for their life...... Some are crying, filled with agony, some lost their hands and some lost legs. Some are praying,

" God....... (SOB).... God.... we need your help.... please save us...... (SOB, SOB)"

"Please god, we need a savior. We beg of you to send someone to help us...... Please God send us a savior to help us."

I was feeling like they meant me while they were asking for a saviour.

" What.... is this? Someone calling me...? Why?....I am just a normal human. How can I help them?.....Wait..... This should be a normal world. What is this????

How is there a monster like this???? How is here people with superhuman abilities.... What is going on here??"

I suddenly noticed lightning flash in my hand.

!!!!

"LIGHTNING???"

"There's.... lightning coming out of my hands?..... No... It's like lightning flash playing around my hands"

I then noticed that my body is emitting some kind of golden light.... And my body is fading away slowly, looked like it is is becoming like sprinkle of dust, glowing golden, and those sprinkles are going above and fading away......

" My vision is becoming blur all of a sudden.... why??? No wait, my hand is becoming like sprinkles like some kind of golden light while it's leaving my body....."

" Is this a dream? B....but for some reason I can feel everything. This isn't a dream. This cant be a mere dream.... What's happening here....."

"Irwan...Irwan... wake up" [Mother waking me up from my sleep]

"Mother? Oh it's already time...?"

Mother said,, " yes. I am going to school. Close the door and keep an eye on your sister till I am back. And don't turn on the television at all. Study till I am back......"

Walking on my way to the main door to close it and thinking...

Signh.....So it was actually a dream afterall.....

I closed the door. I suddenly remembered that I had the same dream yesterday. And started bubbling to myself,

"No wait..... If I am not wrong I had the same dream yesterday. And the main point is the dream started from the point it was left yesterday when I woke up....What the hell is going on? Why the same dream? And...and it felt like real.....Or maybe I am overthinking things...? Maybe I am just a bit tired......"

Father already left for his office one hour ago I guess. Was he able to sleep after that? He also took his medicine too late. If father keep doing things like that everyday, it can result some serious damage in his body. I will have to complete my homework as soon as possible from now on to prevent him from doing things like this again....

After closing the door I went to check on my sister. My sister was sleeping. I laughed like a devil without even knowing cause I was exited for some reason and said to myself ,

"hmhmhmh....kekekekeke...., mom left. Brother and sisters are sleeping. It's time to watch television. I will turn off the television 20 minutes before mother comes back. No one would know that I watched television. kekekeke (sound of laughter)"

"A few minutes later"

"........caw...caw..caw........" (The crows call)

I was standing like a stone for a while....

"WHAT....THE....HELLLLLLL........." [ I shouted cause I lost my cool a bit ]

"Where is the remote of the television?..... I guess mother locked the remote in the almirah. No it has to be like this."

.....

" DAMNNNNN......"

I started studying with a sad expression.... Sometimes I check on my sister. My brother woke up and got ready to go to school after eating his breakfast.

I looked at the wall clock. It's already 9:40 am and my class will start in10:30 am.

"Well, it's gonna be 10 am soon. I should eat my breakfast and get ready. Lets go take a look at what we have in the fridge to eat......."

I ate my breakfast and got ready for my school. After my mother came back, I left for school....

Huh..... this is my daily life. I am Irwan, with a family of parents and siblings. My life goal is just to study, eat and sleep. Well it's actually a rule that my mother created specially for me....... No entertaining is allowed for me. Just like a prisoner....

Rubbing my hands on my face for a while and after that looking on the ground, I started thinking, praying in my mind,

God.....I wanna have some fun like other kids of my age.... I wanna go outside and play a little bit..... I wanna watch television.....I wanna be free.

Even if its for a little while.... students of my age don't want to come to school. But I love coming to school. Cause it's the only free time I get...... It's the only fun time that I am able to enjoy...... it's the only time that I can spend with my friends.... or maybe should I say, it's the only time that I am allowed to be free.....

I reached school thinking of things like this. Today teachers are gonna give the results of last times tutorial exam after tiffin period/ lunch break...

Although I am afraid of getting bad scores and being scolded by mother, I am also excited to know how I did in the exam. How much score I got in this exam. I have been working really hard, reading all the time. I hope this hard work pays off.

I always get exited about my result no matter how scared I am about getting bad scores. During tiffin period, everyone eats food in the cafeteria. I just takes a walk outside. Cause I don't have any money to buy food. I don't get any pocket money. Everyone looks at me as a pitiful thing. They behave nicely cause they think I will help them in exam if they somehow make me happy, since I am a talented student in their eyes.
