Chapter 1
The dream- The Beginning
My heart was beating fast, not because I was running, it was because I was afraid, afraid of what was coming next. Death. I can never escape it no matter how fast I run or where I hide, he always finds me, then it all goes white. The temperature drops quickly and my body goes numb. I can't move and it feels like there is a weight down on me, preventing me from getting up. The white fades and turns to an eery black. Then I see my most favorite moments of my life. My first all family Christmas, my first and last dog, my family and friend, and our family dinners. Then death comes back and tells me I have to choose, to stay and be miserable, or to go and live in my favorite place forever. I always wake up before I choose though, always the same.
It's been the same since six months ago, the same dream. Once a week I would wake up sweating and scared out of my whit all because of one dream. I don't think I'll ever get used to it, but I can't dwell on that right now. It's in the past and done. I raked my hands through my sweat soaked hair and groaned.
"Dang it why do I keep having these dreams? What are they trying to tell me, that I'm going to die? If it does mean death, I could totally be misinterpreting the dream altogether!" I realized I wasn't going back to sleep so I went to get ready for the day starting off with a nice warm shower.
After the refreshment of the hot shower I started getting ready to go to my classes of the day. I took the early classes so I didn't fall asleep in class and be able to sleep in the afternoon that is if I didn't have to go to work. I got a job taking care of the animals out in the back fields and in the Ag. department wing and I wouldn't have to go far to take care of them seeing as I was taking all agriculture classes.
That is why I can't dwell on the dreams, my education and the animals come first!
