"He witnessed the first sign of the devil's daughter's restiveness"

"luminary explooooooosion!"

He loudly whispered, thrusting an arm up in the air. He turned his head sideways, to the left and to the right, checking around his surroundings to make sure that no one saw his taboo act. A heavy sigh was released when he realized that there was not a single presence with him in the kitchen. He would have died if there was someone or even something around.

The lights were in absence, unless there's a person with ultra night vision, then his uneasiness would be justified. But knowing that there is no such human, the young man still felt that there were eyes watching him in the dark. Could it be a wandering ghost? A monster stalking its prey? A being from above recording his odd behavior? Or is it simply his mind playing games with him?          

If it was a wandering ghost, it was probably happy that a human was awake at 3:00 am and decided to chill with him. 

If it was a monster, it probably lost its appetite after being weirded out with his actions. 

If it was a being from above, is acting like a child an alternative ticket to the underworld? 

If it was his mind….then he should probably sleep more. 

Despite the growing concern in his heart, he remained to trust the darkness and its malevolent form for he knew its true self - a dreary being who conceals the vulnerability that it loathed with its own gloom.

...3:00 am is indeed equivalent to shower.

Whispering the cereal's tagline, he realized how truly satisfying it is to bring out. Bizarre isn't it? To have two words bring a sense of glee in the man's heart. But gratifying as it is, he felt something was incredibly ... off. It was not the aforementioned suspecting eyes that watched him, it was something else far more concerning - at least for him. 

But the young man shrugged it off and proceeded to take the luminary cereal and cold milk out of the refrigerator and reached for a bowl from the gray kitchen shelf. And with no thought whatsoever, he poured the milk in the bowl before the cereal.

Is this man a psycho?

Taking advantage of the rare tranquil moment that he has on a Monday morning, he sat down by the gray couch and unlocked his mobile phone to finally watch the video that was uploaded last night by his favorite content creator.

He was fighting the urge to watch the video yesterday, but he knew that he couldn't resist the urge to watch continuously after watching one video. His binge watching addiction is not necessarily the problem - the REAL issue is that he would readily risk his sleep schedule. There is a reason why he favored that content creator.

Staying up all night, is that a problem? Truly, it depends on the individual. But to this young man it is simply not a problem, it's a CATASTROPHE. It is a disaster that would ignite fury to a blonde dragon.

He lifted his spoon containing the cereal and milk up to his mouth and as he was chewing the luminous treat, a powerful force halted him to swallow.

'...shit.'

Terrifying as it may sound, the 'powerful force' was desperately forcing its way to hold possession of the man's body. Most who would have the opportunity to experience such a phenomenon would certainly lose their mind and question the existence of the higher beings above.

However the young man seemed to be unfazed, sorrowful, in fact. His face was morphing into a look of regret rather than terror.

That's because in truth, the 'powerful force' described was nothing but his child nostalgia making him feel extremely wistful. But his sentimental emotion that he is experiencing at the moment was, at least for him, out of this world. 

The cereal, SUPERNOVA, was exclusively catered in the country of Boccorrum; the country where it was manufactured. It wasn't until last year that the company responsible for the product decided to distribute it to other countries. There was no logical reason as to why his nostalgia goggles were active because he never had the cereal in his childhood.

But one thing is for sure, his old self is warning him of wrongdoing. 

A wrongdoing? He did not know what sin he had committed, but the uncomfortableness bothered him to another level. If he knew what it is, he would have done it faster than the speed of light.

The more he thought about it, the more the bothersome feeling became more of an annoying nuisance. It heavily reminded him of his young cousin who bugged him for hours because he wanted to watch the video he was watching on his phone. 

If the young man is going to be truly honest, the most concerning fact about the situation is that an issue was brought up because of a CEREAL! A CEREAL ABOUT A STAR'S DESTRUCTION!

The young man swallowed the cereal that stayed in his mouth while he was having his inner rant with himself. Taking a deep breath, he calmed himself and whistled a tune.

'Fine! I'll say it again for fucks sake!' 

"....LUMINARY EXPLOOO--"

"Oh, Thaddeus you're awake! That's a miracle."
