I'll love you tomorrow so sweet dreams for now.
Can you lose your emotions? Because I’ve lost mine.
When I was a child, I dreamt about my parents' death. I didn't know anything about dreams or anything else for that matter. I was just a kid who wanted to play outside. My Aunt became my guardian after that. She told me not to share my dreams with others, and without questioning, I obediently followed her command.
As a child, all I wanted was to play with kids my own age, so I would sneak out whenever I could. I played outside with my friends—running, laughing, crying, and sometimes even fighting. But in the end, we were always happy to go home, and we remained friends. As a child, I didn't think about anything complicated. I simply thought about school, eating, playing, and sleeping—a normal child's life.
But then, one day, everything changed because of a single dream—a dream that I can't forget.
-Flashback-
Astra's POV
"HAHAHA"
"What are you, a kid?"
"Why won't you believe me? Guys, I'm telling the truth. I saw in my dream that you would lose your father," I said, trying to convince them. We were in a park near Lucy's home. I shared what I had seen, but they all just laughed at me.
"No! You're lying," Lucy said.
Cassandra stood in front of me, her face serious.
"Just stop, Astra. Don't lie. No one will believe you," Cass commented. "You're just trying to scare us," she added.
"But-"
"Enough! You're crazy," Luke said, looking disgusted.
"We don't want to talk to you anymore. Weirdo. Let's go, guys. I have new toys we can play with," Max said. Lucy and the others left me all alone.
I dreamt about Lucy's father's death. In my dream, I could see a masked man shooting him. I was terrified when I had that dream. It felt so real that it still scares me when I think about it.
Afterwards, I shared my dream with them, hoping they would believe me, but I made a mistake. None of them believed me.
"Why?" I cried my heart out. I felt like a monster that everyone feared.
-End of Flashback-
Haunted by the memory of that fateful dream, it's as if my heart has become corrupted, like a damaged file. All the emotions within me have disappeared. I forced myself to forget my past because I didn't want to feel the pain.
As I delve deeper into the search for truth, I encounter someone who has the potential to rekindle my buried emotions.
Can someone who's lost their emotions feel love again? Am I allowed to feel this, even if I'm not like others?
But even as I search for answers, death is chasing me. Can I find the truth before death catches up to me?
