Everything's dark and once again I'm standing in a pool of blood. Fuck I'm in another one of these dreams. I notice I'm wearing a white dress and every step I take blood splatters over frills. These dreams didn't faze me much anymore as they were a common occurrence back in Serbia but something about this felt different. 

It started the same as before. Lily and Michael standing with guns and knives directed towards them. I didn't do anything as I already knew the outcome. I've become so numb to these dreams that I can predict everything. 

But rather than the floor opening like usual, they disappear and nothing happens. I looked around trying to figure out what was happening. 

I walk around feeling the cold red liquid swish around my bare feet. Suddenly a child appears. What the... I take a closer look and see a bullet hole engraved on his forehead. I gasped realising who it was. I never knew his name but he was one of the multiple kids I'd killed. Suddenly another, then another until the room was filled with children. At least over 100. Tears returned to my face as I tried to call out and explain I didn't have a choice but they all stared at me. Every second they stared at me I noticed they all became whiter and whiter, they looked like they were dead. 

I try and move through the crowd of children but everywhere I go there is just a group of children staring at me like a corpse when suddenly a load shot rings through the air. I watch as all the kids collapse.

The floor then opens like it normally would have and it feels strangely comforting knowing the dream finally ended. 

I gasp awake and there are 6 people around me. I blink trying to clear my vision and notice all my brothers are still here watching. I raise my body off of Matteo's knee. No one says anything, it makes me feel embarrassed. I just give them all cold looks and wonder towards my bed. Finally, Banjamino speaks up, "Sofia how often do those happen?" He says taking a seat on the edge of my bed and placing his back hand on my forehead. I slap it away and ignore his question. I wasn't in the mood to explain. I roll over but I can feel their stares. They think I'm still the weak little girl that couldn't defend herself all those years ago, well you know what screw that. 

They are all still in the room when I shoot out of bed and grab my laptop. I go onto the tab that I'd been on earlier when searching for apartments. I'd found a nice penthouse around the center of the city. I was planning on looking at it before I bought it but fuck that. My brother all watch me type but not looking over the back of the screen and thank fuck they're not being nosy fucker right now cause Lorenzo would lose it. 

I pull out my phone contacting the real estate agent via messages. I slam my laptop down and my brother are all still watching me curiously. The real estate agent kept asking me questions, like would I rather see the apartment before buying it but I happily declined and she responded with the prices. After a few more minutes of getting information about the apartment, we agreed to come to finalize the paperwork tomorrow. Thank fuck.
