Jr.'s Story

Dreams, we dream dreams unconsciously, not knowing the significant meaning behind them.    A meaning behind one's dream, I never really gave it much thought. The so called meaning never sparked my interest, until 7 days ago.  

(Dream)

Surrounded by darkness, all that I could hear at that moment was my heavy breathing, and all that I could feel was fear. I was running, running from something that I couldn't see, more so I dared not to see.

  Panting and loud footsteps were heard trailing inches behind me, as I dared not to turn around. Keeping my trembling legs moving, I never stopped, I never stopped running.    As the sky became even darker than before, as the thick poisonous rain crashed drenching every inch of my body, as the thunder roared and the destructive lightning lit up the terrifying nights' sky. I  never stopped, I never stopped running endlessly until...   *GRAB*   For me to say that I was not scared at that moment, would be a lie.

  After that night, the same dream kept reappearing, the same girl kept chasing after me, grabbing a hold of my arm day after day. For 7 days. No matter how hard I tried to continue the dream, to see what would happen after she had reached her hand out to me, it somehow never progressed further. This girl, this girl who stood in the cold rain as her long black hair clung to her skin. I still remember the soaked white knee length dress she had on as she reached her hand towards me, my fear suddenly vanished when I saw her face.    "So, you're saying that you've had the same dream about a girl chasing after you??" I suddenly turned from staring blankly out the van window towards Mark, as he eyed me waiting for my reply.   "That's kind of FREAKY!!!" Jackson spoke up in the back seat as the maknae line agreed without a
