Deja Vu สังหรณ์รัก { English Translation }

PROPHECY 1 "THE ONE WHO DREAMS"

Have you ever gone somewhere you have never been, but you feel like it is not the first time you are there? Or some events we encounter, it is as if we have gone through it before.

Or someone we just met, but they feel familiar, as if it is not the first time we met them. You might call it prophecy, or it can also be called deja vu. However, this is my real story.

Back then, as a kid, I did not understand anything. But when I was seven, I dreamed about the passing of a neighbor uncle. That dream felt so real that I told my mother. She said that a dream about someone passing away meant that person would live long. So I trusted her and didn’t think of it anymore.

However, who would have guessed, that uncle would really pass away in an accident three days later. I was so shocked, but I tried to stay calm by comforting myself, or believing that it was just a coincidence. As a child I did not want to think much of it.

Then it kept going on, I often dreamed of things that would take place, good or bad, even incidents close to death. Since it happened too many times, I became really scared.

That led me to depression, until my mother brought me to get myself checked by a psychiatrist and meditate.

I prayed in front of the Monk, wishing that I would never dream like that anymore. Or at least, about someone else.

To be honest I did not know whether my wish would be granted or not if I prayed to the Monk. But when I was eight, I stopped dreaming like that. I was so happy, and I went back to living normally. I even forgot that I had ever had that kind of ‘special ability’.

Now I just finished taking the entrance exam for a university in the north. At the moment I am living alone in a dorm provided by the university, and that dream comes back.

I dream of having an intimate relationship with someone. I see him every night.

At first I thought it might be because I was exhausted, lonely, and nothing strange. But the dream keeps on occurring, always the same person, yet with more additional details every time.

Then one day, I dreamed of having a ‘burning’ relationship with him. And it makes me feel the way I do there.

I drag myself to the bathroom, clean the sticky spot between my legs and wash my shorts.

Until I entered the first semester, I am still having wet dreams.

This is my first day in college, and I have promised my friend that I would meet him at the college by 8 o’clock.

Oh. I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Thai or PhaThai Phadung which means ‘a safe country’. Right, my grandfather is an army, but my father dislikes being one, and I personally do too. I choose to be an aero technician. It is similar to mechanical engineering, but focusing on planes. I am also interested in another branch, which is becoming a commercial pilot, however to become one, I first have to study at pilot school for four years. And my family would not be able to afford the costly fees.

I hurriedly change my clothes, then exit my dorm and ride my bike speedily to the college. Actually, if I am not late, usually I go there by foot. But today, to prevent my friend from hitting me for being late, I decided to ride on my bike in order to get there quickly.

Ai’Tong is my childhood friend, we have been studying in the same school since middle school until we’re now in the same college. In the beginning, we made a promise to study at pilot school together, but unfortunately my family ran into financial problems. My father was scammed by his colleague, and it made my family suffer. That is why, when I passed my exam, I had to choose a more affordable college. However, Tong’s family is wealthy. So I told him to study at the pilot school as he desires.
