Since the lockdown, MJ started working part time as an online encoder,
sometimes tutoring,
but most of the time vlogging.

Her YouTube channels are “WoWo”(which means Wonders of Wonder Overload and “Cosmix” ( Cosmic and Matrix).

Both have become viral and made her famous. She is known as Myterious Milka or MM, or M² ‘coz she always wear different masks every each vlog.

Even in her novels and short stories, she uses her screen name. The name Milka have just popped- out of her mind when she saw a picture of a milky way in the internet Science news, exactly while she was thinking of a screen name and easy to remember YouTube channel for her vlogs.

She really enjoyed what she is doing. She have turned her hobbies into an income. And is able to help herself, her family and friends financially.

She is also regularly donating to charity.

All of these made her financially abundant, happy  and successful.

Her friends think that the only thing lacking to complete her almost “heaven on earth” existence is a boyfriend..

"Oh come on MJ, let me set you up for a date okey?!" , says Bernadette,
her unpredictable, boisterous, hazel -eyed , oozing with sex appeal bestfriend.

" Yeah my friend, it’s about time to find your prince charming! " agreed Marcy, her sweet, chubby but sexy bestie, smiling which makes her eyes smaller like a Chinese, and let her dimple made a small indent on her left cheek.

She smiles sweetly, then dreamily tell them,
" Oh but I already found him even without looking for him."

" Reaaallly!!! Eeeeii.. eeeii..
then who is the lucky guy?!",  her besties scream excitedly. But suddenly pout their kissable lips in unison as if with one mind.

" Oows, but how come we haven't met him yet or haven't even seen you dating seriously?!" , they asked with suspicion.

"Hey, what's with all the noise, ha?!"
Ishmael rushing inside the guest room, with his curious black, round eye. Then leaning forward greeting the three ladies with friendly affection. His tall, lean, well-built body can be seen beneath his white tight v-neck shirt matching his navy blue jogging pants and sketchers shoes.. he could be a perfect model.

" Hi handsome bestie, you better ask MJ here why she haven't introduced us yet to her boyfriend." Bernadette and Marcy chorused, again.

"Whaaat?! Our MJ here, has a boyfriend already.. Who is that unlucky.. ummm smart guy?" He says jokingly.

"Well, I just thought it's not yet the right time to tell you all, 'coz you might tease and laugh at me..
but if you insist.." MJ says dreamily.

She started narrating to them how she had met him in her dreams.
_______________          _______________

Since that day her story continues like a fairytale  whenever she have had lucid dreams.

Most of her friends would listen intently except Debby and Alisha, who would smirk and made fun of her. And they would plan to prank her again, like knocking at her door randomly anytime they are in the mood doing mischief.
MJ had caught the two many times when they were teens, knocking mischievously and she just ignored them.

But there were times that the knockings  she heard was not them, especially the tappings at midnight, because the two were afraid of the dark, and midnight and dawn are sleeping hours for them.

"So, who could that be? Hmmm. . . "
She wondered.

Author's note:

Have you experienced lucid dreaming?

Me, sometimes. It's like you dream that you are dreaming and you could control some or most of what's happening inside that dream.
