Dreaming About You

Awake

[Reana's POV]

I realized that he's just no man... the name I saw... is he really...? The name that I saw was... Hong Jisoo... Joshua?! I was not sure at first yet it has to be him because of the name, right? Hong Jisoo, that's literally Joshua's full name... Come on it's Google when I search it. I know my friends would not easily believe that the man we just came across with was Joshua from Seventeen. He's the man in my dreams... I just couldn't believe that we just came across with him. I even heard Cheol's name as he's speaking to himself and he was in a hurry... Wait, I'm not dreaming again am I? This can't be another dream... right?

Reana said and thought to herself as she, Brielle and Yana continued to go back to their home from the hospital. It took them a while as they walked and they called for a taxi to drive them home. The traffic was horrible too so they had to just wait on the road for a bit longer... They then just talked and told stories while they were still stuck in traffic. As they finally came back to their home, they all sighed in relief because they were on the road for almost an hour long. Brielle unlocked and opened the door as they all rushed in and all took a seat because they were all so tired of the long traffic.

Yana:

That was a long and horrible traffic huh...

Brielle:

Yeah, we were stuck in the traffic for like a long time. It felt like centuries...

Reana:

True.

Brielle:

So Rea, do you feel any better since we were in the hospital?

Reana:

I guess I feel kind of better

Yana:

Do you have any problems? Because you feel down again...

Reana:

No, no... I just feel tired that's all

Brielle:

Oh okay, you can watch some movies or shows with us on television?

Reana:

I think I'll pass for now. I might just rest for the rest of the day...

Yana:

Okay... we'll make you food later too so rest well.

Reana went to her room upstairs that's just beside Brielle and Yana's rooms. She wondered why they had separate rooms yet she remembered that they buy a lot of stuff and sometimes they just like to have some privacy. They still sometimes sleep together yet sometimes they wanted to sleep peacefully so they had separate rooms. Reana went into her room as she lay down on her bed. She just looks up on the ceiling and just thinks about thoughts. She then thought about what she thought about before they went in the taxi to go home. "What if everything is all a dream, again...?" she thought to herself as she kind of panicked. She thought that what if she's still asleep... that, what if she's still in a deep slumber that she couldn't wake up...? She stood up from her bed and quickly grabbed the pillow beside her and hit the pillow that she picked up onto her forehead. She felt some pain yet nothing changed. She then went to the wall and she tried to hit her head onto it yet she just couldn't. "That would be too much..." she said as she thought of a different idea. She got a towel and her clothes from her closet and went straight to the bathroom. She took a bath because maybe she could wake from water like in taking a bath. She took a bath for a while and she went in front of the mirror with the faucet under it. She looked straight at the mirror as she slapped herself... "If this is just a dream, let me wake up!" she said to herself as she slapped herself again. She then opened the faucet and splashed some water onto her face. Nothing changed, nothing weird happened. Her old perspective or belief that dreams are happy had changed. Now she wishes to wake up if ever she's still in a dream. She got scared or traumatized from the past dreams that she really wants out for now. Because of all that she did, she finally thinks that she's awake and not in a dream. For she doesn't want to feel the same sadness and pain from her past dreams, she forced herself not to sleep for some days straight. Before reality is her pain yet now it's her dreams...

Three days had passed since she had woken up from her coma, she still didn't want to sleep. She's scared to go into a slumber. Her two friends are getting worried as they start to notice what Reana is doing... Her eyes are red, her movements are slow and she looks and feels tired...

Brielle:

I thought from the day that you said you went upstairs that you were going to rest?

Reana:

I'm sorry that I lied... I don't want to sleep

Yana:

Why though? Sleeping is good...

Reana:

Yes but from my coma, I've been having lots of weird dreams and nightmares. I don't want to experience it again...

Brielle:

Before you would say that reality sucks yet now you say dreams are...? Sigh Rea, whether reality or fantasy hurts, things happen remember? Whether or no matter what happens in dreams or in real life, we will face it together...

Yana:

Yes, we should face them...

Reana:

Oh okay... thank you guys...

Yana:

You're welcome Rea-

Woah she fell asleep that quick...?

Brielle:

Well I think she didn't sleep for a certain amount of days so yeah...

Yana:

Let's let her sleep properly on the couch.

Brielle:

Agreed

While Reana was sleeping on the couch, she started to have this dream. She started to walk on a rainbow in her dream as she saw someone on a cloud. She thought at first that that person was just walking around yet the person was... dancing. She started to approach the person and she suddenly blushed. The man was dancing so well that she thinks that he was practicing some dances with some songs that she knows. She moved closer to the man as the person looked at her with his sparkling eyes and intimidating face. She blushed again as she just stood some miles away from him. She then said...

"Is that you... Shua...?
