What a Weird Dream.



620


years pass.


Pine forest at dusk. The fog that covered every path I was supposed to walk to get back home. The orange light that penetrated through the tree, as if guiding this step to continue


grabbed it. Every bit of vines I passed by instantly turned into a stretch of white roses


charming ones. In his amazement with the stretch of white roses, this step hesitated to continue walking forward. A shadow stood right at the end of it. His body that turned back against the twilight light gave me a slight creep of fear. Both hands were asking me to come closer to him.


What is this taste? A very strong taste. Feelings like this? Why do I feel so close to the figure now standing far away at the end? Who figure?I feel like he is alive inside me.


This leafan increasingly brought my steps to get closer to that figure. I watch every step I take. The expanse of thorny white roses suddenly scratched my finger and made me feel pain for a moment. And, from one drop of blood falling on the petals under my hand, it changed the entire white rose to a red color as thick as the color of blood.


The grip of fear struck instantly from all directions of the wind. And the mysterious figure disappeared in the darkness which slowly showed itself after dusk came. I'm shaking. I'm shivering. I freaked. Alone in the middle of the forest which is now dark. I wake up in stiffness.


“ Ralin!! ” that voice call resuscitated my figure that was still frozen in fear.


Mother. That's mom's voice. My inner.


Soon I realized my fear. Run in no direction. As soon as I found the tip of the pine forest


and the expanse of roses that turned as red as this color of blood, I fell.


“ Oouch! ” cries Ralin so realized that he had just fallen from the top of his bed. He looks around. Half-consciously he believed that he was in his own room. Where at this time he was sitting next to his bed because he fell earlier.


Yep. Here's my room. Just now it was a dream. Everything I've been through was just a dream. What a really weird dream. But also as real.


Ralin looked around again. Convince yourself that what has just happened is just a sleeping flower.


“ Yes, Lord, this child! ” welcome the figure of a mother from behind the door. The new mother opened the door a little and found her daughter waking up in an unusual position. “ Falling again from bed, deck? ” the mother went into the room and opened the curtains that were right in the east direction of her daughter's bed.


The window was large enough for a room with a size of 3x4m which became the room of the girl. With a thin white fabric coated with light purple as curtains, making the room look very soft with a blend of pastel-colored wall paint. In one corner of the window facing the left side, there is a cupboard with shades of peach color that makes it look fused with the color of the wall behind it. On the opposite side there is a dark brown teak wood learning table with ancient motifs but does not reduce the luxury offered. While dealing with the window of the room there is a single bed with purple shades and beside the single bed there is a small dressing table with a mirror measuring 60x90 cm which is decorated with frames of various photo collections from the girl.


The light that entered from the curtain gap that opened the mother looked very blinding to the eyes and made Ralin momentarily close his eyes again. The shadow of the dream flashed again in his mind. Pine forest, twilight light, white rose beds, and a mysterious figure who seemed to ask him to come. Ralin was stunned as soon as he opened his eyes. There was a sudden feeling that troubled his heart and mind. A feeling he could never understand his appearance.


entering his High School, most of the contents of the child's laptop are various kinds of Korean dramas that he watched most of the night. And according to the mother, Ralin should remember one important thing today.


“ Dreams to meet who else deck? ” said the mother who put the princess's high school uniform on the bed of the child. “ The installments on your laptop. ”


“Not bu.. Ralin had a strange dream earlier. ” again sighed Ralin continued his sentence. “ ..and now Ralin feels lost.


He looked at the mother with sparkling eyes like a small child who hoped to get so much attention from his parents.


“ You are weird.  It's your first day in High School, not it's ready, even still dumb. ” chirps the mother on the sidelines chat.


Ralin was silent. He was still sitting beside the bed where he fell because of his dream. Still hugging her rolling pillow and her beloved blanket patterned the same, Ralin was aghast. Just glanced at the mother when she said “Your first day at SMA”. He looked at the alarm clock on the table next to him.


“ KYAAAAAA... ” Ralin screaming hysterically.


So tight the cry of Ralin, so that the entire house became rowdy as if there had been an earthquake. The father's coffee spilled half of his favorite ceramic cup he was about to drink on the front porch lounge chair. The older brother was injured by the scratching of his razor, and Moko, Ralin's beloved little dog, trembled in fear and chose to enter again into the cage that became his home since it was picked up and maintained by Ralin and the older brother.


“ Mother, why wake up at that hour anyway? I could be late. Where is the first day again. ” oceh Ralin while enjoying the recommended breakfast at dinner table.


“ Eat slowly ikh! ” said the Mother while taking a side dish for the father. “ Your brother is still relaxed so. ” added the mother as if he did not care about the anxiety of his daughter.


The older brother looked at Ralin with a smile full of pleasure. –mati-you-days-this-Lin! Less is more,


that's what my brother had in mind.


“ Obviously brother relaxed. He is the chairman of his Osis. ” whine Ralin with his regret. “ Alin at seven must be in school. Already have to line also so as not to be stamped brother tuh!”  Ralin grew increasingly upset while accusing his brother who was enjoying something across his desk, whether it was his food or his ignorant thoughts that would give punishment to Ralin if his sister was late on her first day this morning.


“ Already, already. ” the father mediates. “ Ralin follow father only.” added the father who has finished his breakfast. “ When you have finished breakfast, I wait in the car. Let me bring a motorbike to school. ”


Climbing so happy, Ralin rushed to catch up with the father by first judging his brother.
