Okay, let's see if I can get this done... FINALLY! The sequal to 'The River
of Tears Flows From My Pillow'..I'm SO sorry, for the delay. Here-goes-
nothing
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hi, it's me Emi. It's certainly been a long time since we've talked. Six months, I think. Alot has happened, especially, last month. What? You haven't heard about it? Don't you read the news at all? Well, alright, I'll tell you about it, the news can't portray it as well as I can anyway. Here goes.
I woke up in the morning one day, to the sound of the phone ringing. I got up, feeling very groggy still, staggered to the telephone, and answered it. It was Yuni.
"Hello?" I said.
"Hi, Emi? It's me, Yuni," Yuni replied.
"Oh, hi, Yuni. What's up? Why'd you call so early in the morning?"
"I had a strange dream, and I wanna talk about it."
"Okay, want me to come over?"
"If it isn't too much trouble."
"Yuni, I'm always here for you. I'll be right over."
"Thanks alot. Bye."
"Bye," and we both hung up.
After hanging up the phone, I went to change out of my pajamas. I grabbed some blue jeans, and a nice orange shirt, and changed into them. Of course, my outfit is never complete without my hat, so I put that on as well. I was kind of hungry, so I just grabbed a muffin on my way out.
Walking down the sidewalk, munching my muffin, I became conscious of just how early it was. There was almost nobody else walking around, and few cars driving by as well. After I walked about three blocks, I got a paranoid feeling, like somebody was following me, but I shrugged it off.
I passed an arcade, and wished it wasn't closed, I really wanted to dance. Then I remembered I wouldn't have had time anyway, I was on my way to Yuni's house.
Finally, I reached Yuni's house and knocked on her door. She answered it and invited me in.
"You made it here pretty quickly," she said with a smile.
"Well, the streets weren't crowded, and I felt I should hurry for you," I replied.
"Thanks," she smiled.
"Anytime," I smiled back.
We went to her room instead of the living room, I guess she felt more comfortable there, especially since it was early, and she was still in her pajamas, like I wished I was. She sat on her bed, and made sure I had room to, as well. I looked around, the picture of she and I, when we entered that DDR tournament 2 years ago, was still on her dresser. That made me really happy.
"So what's up?" I asked.
"Like I said, on the phone, I had a strange dream," she replied, losing some of the bounce in her usually cheerful voice, which made me concerned.
"What was it?"
Yuni sighed, "Well, don't laugh."
"Never. I'd never laugh when you're so serious," I replied in a comforting voice. It was true, Yuni was my best friend and I'd never laugh at her when she is sad.
She paused a moment, maybe to gather her courage, or organize the dream in her mind, then she started about it, "Well, I was walking in my house, and went into my bathroom to take a shower. There was an alligator in the bathtub."
"An alligator in the tub?" I asked.
"Yea, told you it is strange. Anyway," she shook her head, "I ran out of the bathroom screaming, and all the floor of the second floor was gone, so I fell."
"You fell? Did you get hurt?"
She shook her head slowly, "No. A wolf jumped up and caught me. Then the wolf put me down, and the alligator came out of the bathroom, and attacked you. I don't know how you got there, dreams are weird like that."
I just nodded and gestured for her to continue.
"Then the wolf attacked the alligator, saving you, then it carried you out of my house."
"That is weird, but it sounds like just an ordinary dream," I said, wishing I could have stayed asleep for just one hour more.
"There is one more thing," Yuni said, sounding very scared.
I became concerned with the fear in her voice, "Yes?"
"Before the dream ended, I walked up to the dead alligator, and started laughing," she started crying, "I was laughing with Zukin's voice."
I hugged Yuni. Now it was indeed worth getting me out of bed. Zukin terrified Yuni, "I'm so sorry, you had to dream that. It must've been scary."
She just sat there idle in my hug, crying, "Yea," she managed to say.
After a half an hour or so, I managed to calm her down. We played some board games, and talked some, then I went to go home, and invited her to come with me. She declined saying that she had alot of work to do around her house. So we said goodbye and I headed home.
Walking home, I just kept thinking about Yuni's dream. It was scary even to me. Zukin was after me after all. Could Yuni have been laughing like Zukin at the dead alligator, or was she laughing because I was captured? Maybe it was some other reason, who knows.
Some dreams are messages, so I decided that we should stay on our toes for a while. I got home, and went to bed, to catch up on the sleep I lost, because of my talk with Yuni.

Is it good so far? ^-^ I hope so.
