An impact of dreams
L
It was a beautiful sunset. My friend and I were so marvelled by the splendour of
the vanilla sky, but it was I that realized this was an illusion. I wanted to take it all
in, so I looked around. We were in a walkway separated by a short concrete
wall. There , the rush of people could decide which direction they decided to
go. We were heading into the entrance of the large gray building which looked
to be an Airport. From the other side of the median, something caught my
attention I turned around and there was only strangers going in the opposite
direction. I wasn’t confused long enough because we were already walking in.
As soon as we entered, we were in my backyard. My Dad was outside
watering the plants. He seemed to take notice of us. I looked up that sky was
was overjoyed to see the beauty of it all. All the other 8 planets in our solar
system were suspended right above our stratosphere.
I told them, “Hey, check what I can do”. I then manisfested an energy blast
and sent it towards Mercury who curiously was the same size as Jupiter. Two
seconds later the planet vibrated with the impact and seemed to glow. It
wasn’t like I was expecting anything to happen, but I felt I could have done a
better job. I repeated this move and sent a more powerful beam. Both were
amazed at what I was doing but they made no inquiries.
My friend and I made our way inside the house and were suddenly within the
building. The airport seemed so dark, but not completely pitch black. It was like
not enough light was present. I told my friend to go to the only place that
looked friendly enough, a McDonalds.
We were in line again, and both of us were really focused on the menu,
unaware the setting sun was still shining upon our faces. The food looked so
delicious, I had to order the right thing. A short time later, we were out of there. So
much for the food. Now were in some other part of the building which looked
more like a lab facility now. We walked down the hall into a white room
inhabited by various people. The conversation was brief for we had somewhere
else to go. I decided to tell them the truth (about their origin). I quickly turned back to them and stated, “The truth is...(I couldn’t do it)...whatever you all may think it is...well it’s
true”. I couldn’t crush their reality.
My words seemed to affect a lanky guy with spiky blonde hair, he has wearing white primarily. His eyes
widened and took us to a storage room. I sensed his panic and after I
questioned him what he needed, he told me “Yes, we know...we’re not just
Ted’s kids”. This intrigued me for I don’t know a Ted.
He walked us out to the exit this time. Opened the door after looking at me in
particular. The Sun hadn’t set, in fact, the yellow light of the glorious sun warmed
me once again. We followed the man, who was walking with alertness. I
looked at the building we came out of and noticed again the grayness of it all.
We went to the main entrance and soon enough were part of the crowd exiting.
I could see how from this angle more detail of the arquitecture. The
large window that was perhaps on the 3rd floor stood out as if it were the only
place life existed in the dreary interior.
The view to the window revealed a restaurant's interior, well lit. The shock hit me, I was looking a McDonalds. With three more paces I could fully see inside, and I was looking at
myself and my friend standing in line at McDonalds, focused intently at the menu.
What is this? “Let’s go...”, I said. I couldn’t move, not anymore, for just yards
away and directly below the window on the ground...there WE WERE...literally,
my friend and I making our way towards the entrance. Now it was us three (or
2?) that couldn’t fanthom the idea. “How is this possible”, I asked no one. The
entering me looked at me, at least that what it looked like. We ducked behind
the concrete wall. Now it all made sense. Lucidity, how you can you play with
me like that?
