It's not true is it? I wake up every morning not recognizing where I am. Then it all comes back. Fuzzy at best, but it rushes in and the light, it almost blinds me. I remember my childhood, my family, but I don't feel familiar with it. Like I know what a million dollars is but I'm not familiar with it. Because I've never had it. All I can see is chaos, people crying and monsters. My father, no, I don't know this person but HE looks familiar. He says he loves me then his face disfigures. He's a monster too, but monsters don't exist, right?
My mother or the woman who thinks she's my mother calls my name.
"Connor, wake up!"
That name feels so familiar but it's so far away and I can't reach it.
"Connor!"
Now I remember. I'm supposed to go UCLA today, but why? Because that's what you do after high school. I'm packed and I leave today. I leave the home I grew up in. This is the home I grew up in, right?
I pull myself out of bed and see familiar faces, but they weren't familiar three months ago. They were just fuzzy memories, but the dreams. No, not dreams. I'm awake. It's what I remember late at night when I'm lying in my bed. They look like dreams because they're so hard to believe. Not dreams, nightmares. The red sky, no, its raining fire. Which one is it? A woman, she's nice. A family but it didn't last. A gun, no, two N's and Fred only she's a woman. My head hurts.
"Connor get up, it's time to go."
Someone is touching my shoulder. I open my eyes. It's the woman. My mother, my memories say she's my mother, so she must be. I smile.
"I'm up"
I come downstairs after getting ready and decide on a simple breakfast of orange juice. I say my goodbyes. The little girl, my sister, she looks grumpy. It doesn't matter. I get in my car. 18th year birthday present. It was nice of them.
To them I was going to L.A. to learn. I was but not what they thought. I would learn the truth. Even if I died trying.
