As I walked down the street to the bus stop, I started to think about how my life turned out. I was a 28-year old office worker who didn't get paid enough because I dropped out of college. I couldn't get a better job. I just wanted to get home and see my cats. Well, I laid my head against the bus window. I close my eyes and focus on the music playing. Before long, I realized I fell asleep, but when I woke up I was in a dark room.

I sat up to find myself in my childhood bedroom and realized the kitchen light was on, so I got up and went to the kitchen to see my mom putting food in my dad's bowl. When I sat down at the table, my mom pours me water and I try to overcome my confusion . My dad was nagging me, telling me I should sleep, and my mom was saying don't worry about him, so I couldn't think afterwards.

I went back to my room to think. I was so confused about how I got here when I was on a bus and was worried about what would happen to my cats. I'm hoping it was all a dream when I woke up. I went back to sleep, but the next morning my mom woke me up for school.
