Thunder rumbled without lightning. I was floating over a vast busy city. The freezing wind enveloped me, but I was not feeling the cold. Every single one of the sensation was there. The wind, cold, noise, everything. It was all present. I could sense them all but could feel or hear none. 680Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7wQ64zV5m

I looked at my body and I couldn't believe what I was looking at. I was made of bronze aura. I tried touching myself but my hands went through me. 680Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xio4HHUmB

I looked over the city. I don't think have ever gone pass this area. I continued to scan the environment looking for something familiar to pinpoint where I was. 680Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdZisa2W4s

Then, it dawned on me that this was less like a dream. I could control what I thought. I knew I didn't have full control but the control I have was too much already.680Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4v1AQZiR9

Then a building caught my attention. It was one of the numerous skyscrapers in the city but something made it different. Smoke was rising the building, but the smoke wasn't coming from inside the building. Then I noticed it wasn't smoke. 680Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXt6ngFRGe

Without control over my form, I floated towards the building as my bronze aura blazed. As I got close to the building, the energy I was sensing changed. The wind reduced, the noise stopped but the cold intensely increased. Then my form began to flicker. It was constantly going from bronze to gray. The air also developed this itchy sensation.1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡCs44j52sI6 尼

I floated to the helipad of the building. On setting my foot on the building, my grey form stayed. The noise totally died down. The wind stopped but the cold and the itching became worse. I tried scratching my body but it was futile as my hands continually went through me. Frustrated, I screamed.1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHpbBQOLHj 尼

I broke back into reality.1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3LNwPjeKd 尼

I woke up with mild headache. I was sweating and at the same time so cold. The cold air in my dream had somehow slipped into my reality. I sat up on my bed.  From the look of things, it looks like my worst fear is back. The door opened and Theodore walked in. He was dressed for work in a black shirt, grey trouser and a grey blazer.1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡfILlstZyK9 尼

“Hey dude,” he greeted. “I prepared sandwich, so if you want to eat. Hope you are a bit okay now?”1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4a5OL0vcq 尼

I nodded.1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLDWOVq2GR 尼

He looked at me suspicious of something. 680Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwzH2O6gHK
680Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdljYGmnbkk
"Dude, you are sweating. Do you have fever?"1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyrHafcgYz 尼

I shook my head. He walked close and touched my forehead to check my temperature.1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡks5uNZSJap 尼

“I have to go now. You can just take the day off, and I feel we still need to discuss what happened yesterday night. By the way, how are you going to take care of the damages on the taxi?”1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5SBRmZ2G4 尼

“The company insurance will deal with that,” I said. I haven’t really gotten into any mess.1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpFASaQvZF 尼

“Okay,” he responded. He ruffled my hair and he quickly removed his hand before I could swat it. He was about to leave the room. 1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gmmWhZjwV 尼

“Theodore," I called as he turned. "I think it back.”1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQsb22z6On 尼

He paused at the entrance. He squinted his eyes and rolled it in his head. “What is back?”1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NOE5sLnEZ 尼

“I know it might sound crazy,  but," I sighed. "The dreams are back.”1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡA19UT6VIeu 尼

“Oh oh.”1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡejOSj9e8tC 尼

“I saw what happened last night before it happened, but the one that just happened is the kind of scary.  It feels like the sensation in the dream is sipping into reality.”1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaWH0rSDcJ 尼

Theodore just stood there. I could tell he was surprised and confused. “Jed, I think we have a lot to discuss, but now is not the best time. When I get back.”1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAUozUjGcG 尼

I nodded. He winked at me and let the room. 1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgeoIHBpXs 尼

“See you bro!” he said from the living room. I heard the door close. I was home alone. The last time I check, aside from Sundays, I haven’t stayed at home for a while now. I stood up and everything felt blurry. I closed my eyes and waited still my world was settled. I opened my eyes and walked out of the room. The house felt so dead.1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSixyntH81 尼

I didn’t last two hours in the house before setting out. I went to sort things out with the taxi company and luckily for me,  things worked out well. I will just have to wait for a while for my cab to be fixed. 1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsBotNZTdI 尼

“You are one of our best drivers, so we can handle this for you,” the manager had said. “And looks like you would be forfeited the no damages compensation for this year.”1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzAa5BexNx 尼

I shrugged. I won the compensation for the driver with the highest returns and also the no damages compensation, but it seems like I would be losing the two this year all because of one wrong passenger. I laughed it off, hoping it would mask the anger and pain.1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡrW7jpxKWjt 尼

Not willing to go back home anytime soon, I decided to waste few hours with a friend. Carson is a guy I got to know through Theodore. He runs a successful 3-star restaurant along Ancaster Street East.1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmwC0nVMnl 尼

I walked in to find everything as busy as usual. I looked around in search for Carson, but he was nowhere to be found. He always talks about how he always loved to be in the kitchen, supervising everything going on. He only comes out to see the customer once in a while. I ordered a chicken sandwich and an apple juice. I’ve always thought of making Carson come to the house and teach me some of these recipes but something would always pop up and hinder him. I took my first bite and it was as awesome as ever. The first time Theodore tried it out, he over salted the sauce and blamed it on me for not been in the kitchen with him.1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡexxnJsvay3 尼

“Hope you are enjoying your meal,” someone said. I looked behind me and few tables away is Carson checking on the customers. I took my glass of juice and raised it in his direction to get his attention and it worked. Well, I also got some unsolicited attention, but the person I wanted to communicate to already saw me. He came over.1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUPN8QT65c 尼

“Hey,” he said. We shook hands as he sat. “What are you doing here?" he asked.1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8DBkEPWXX 尼

The question made me realise how distant the two of us have been for a while now.1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMyL4I2TOp 尼

“I can't show up again?” I asked.1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPWqDsB54D 尼

"Sorry, that's not what I meant, but you know, it's been a long time."1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9XZctWiCw 尼

"Yea, I know. Everything has just been somehow for a while now."1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMRqgeRPy2 尼

Carson nodded. He could relate.1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsWtTzkbDl 尼

“So, how’s everything been?” he asked1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0nww9FFT7 尼

“Not bad, expect for a passenger that made my last twenty four hours horrible.”680Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRNbTFdyFc

“Wow. What really happened?” he asked. A customer passed by and waved towards him. He waved back, smiling.1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡxE83E0GcYb 尼

I explained everything that happened to him, including the beating I took at home.1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgGL3FQTxZ 尼

“Wow,” he said smiling. He kind of found the whole thing funny,  especially the part that I told him my head was ringing after I was head-butted. “And she didn’t tell you anything?”1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwQkIb6O6I 尼

I shook my head. “But that recently seems to be the least of my problems.”1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yM7jgkMnW 尼

“Hmm, what’s wrong?”1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0bbKyPAMM 尼

I haven’t know Carson for as long as I know Theodore but we’ve bounded so well. I’m always free to discuss things I can discuss with Theodore with him with no fear.1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7AGGwca6p 尼

“About a year ago, I started having this reoccurring dreams. Dreaming is not something I really care about but those ones were different. Whatever I saw were coming true. What made those period so harsh for me was  seeing the death of four people in my dream,” I sighed.1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡBC5mukcNgb 尼

The memories do not fail to still trouble me. 1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡnesIsQrBbg 尼

“Those four people died,  exactly the way I saw it happened  It felt so painful cause it was something that I could have stopped,  but I just overlooked everything,” I blinked back tears. 680Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7xWvkoD3Z

Carson sighed. I’m sure he wasn’t expecting that kind of issue.1234 copyright protection676ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfQn4AgyMp 尼
