2 Dream or ...

Sam got off the train. Her teacher shouted at the class to keep together. After about half an hour they reached their accommodation. When it was time to decide who was in which room Sam just waited until everyone was happy and then went to the teacher to ask if he could send her to one room. The teacher already knew that she wasn't keen on speaking with her classmates so he just did what he was asked.

After dinner, everyone went to their rooms. Sam just went straight to bed. She wanted to meet that person in the darkness. But she was interrupted. One of the four girls that were with here in the room came to her side.

(Sam PoV from now on)

"Hey, you're Sam right?"

I glanced at her

"No reason to kill me… I just asked for your name. After all, we will be together for 2 weeks."

"Yeah" the others chimed in.

Why do they have to speak to me???

"I am Sam, why?" I just answered. Just now was the first time I spoke with my classmates.

"Just curious. Well, it's not every day that you meet a person like you."

"Ho… And how is a person like me?"

The girl was stunned.

"The silence." Another one suddenly spoke. "You are too silent!"

"Is it wrong to be silent? I just don't see the necessity to speak with you."

She was furious, I could see it. Her face was as red as an apple. It looks funny.

I had to laugh, I regretted it.

The girl exploded. She yelled insult after insult.

I just let her be. I don't care if she insults me. I just want to sleep and meet that person.

I yelled back at her.

"Just let me sleep please, ok?"

She stopped. Probably irritated at my response.

Then she turned around and strutted away.

I finally laid down. I closed my eyes and let my mind wander not long after I found myself in the darkness again.

_____________________________________

I somehow knew that the person was still there.

"Who are you?" she asked.

"You mean me?

"Yeah, who else is here?"

I still couldn't see her and my surroundings were still black. I didn't know that there was no one else. So I truthfully answered.

"Don't know. I can't see anything."

"Oh!"

I didn't hear anything else besides her exclamation.

Sometime later she spoke again.

"Wait a moment."

What could I do other than waiting? I heard her saying some cryptic sentences that didn't make any sense. But after she was finished I was surrounded by light. I went blind for a second. Since I was shrouded in darkness till now.

After a while, my eyes recovered. I saw a girl in front of me. She is definitely short. Her dark hair – I think it has a shade of green – is very long. And she even has pointed ears! Just by a little but they were a hundred percent pointed ears. I didn't notice before because I studied her body, but she has red eyes! Where is this actually? Nowhere on earth can you find someone with apparently natural green hair, red eyes, and pointy ears!!!

Obviously, she saw my shocked look.

"Is something wrong?"

Did she ask if something is wrong? Did she really just ask if anything is f***ing wrong?

"Clearly! I have this dream, that is clearly no normal dream, since childhood and I'm chained and in a cage and somehow after 12 years of the same dream over and over again suddenly you appeared, you have features that don't exist in reality and now you ask if something is wrong?"

I shouted the last part… Somehow I couldn't keep my cool anymore. I lost my temper on a stranger. Oh god, could this be any more embarrassing?

"Oh sorry, I shouldn't have asked that. I'm terribly sorry."

She apologized right away. How? Why? I'm wrong!

"No, I'm wrong, I shouldn't have shouted at you and you asked because of concern and not to make fun of me… I am sorry."

"You don't have to be sorry, I shouldn't have asked since the beginning. After all, I see that you are caged. I should have freed you before asking. I'm sorry"

"Don't apologize anymore. We're both wrong. No discussion! But now that you mention it… can you free me?"

"I'll try, step back."

She closed her eyes in concentration. I obediently stepped back.

"ikts lit sekr nifapi fa elr lit pitell ni utetin"

She said something cryptic again. I really doubt this is a language.

Suddenly the metal bars of the cage turned to soft paper. "What?" I shrieked. Is this some kind of joke my mind is playing me? This has to be a dream!"
