It was 2:34am in the morning when Ben woke up from a very unpleasant or rather mind crushing nightmare that looked so real to him. Even when Ben woke up, he was still in shock for about half an hour.

Realizing that no one attacked him now that he is woke, "this is the second time I am being attacked in my dream" he said puzzled.

All he could think about was the 'strong' words a man he had never met before told him on phone.

The man who introduced himself as the father of Aina a girl he had dated earlier that year.

Ben had known Aina for like five years now and he had spoke to her only but a few times when they attended the same lesson five years ago.

Just as Ben was wondering why someone would be after his life in a dream, he could not focus as the voices in his head did not stop hovering within his mind.

"I will deal with you even with my last blood" . That was what the man had told him on the phone.

At that point Ben sat on the carpet with his back resting against the wall painting in the room, looking straight at the light bulb up the ceiling in his room like he had an ambition on something he wanted to do with the bulb, but the only word that could describe his expression at that point was 'perplexity'.

He knew that the dream he had could only mean danger coming his way as though the nightmare he had was a warning that had come to him for the second time.

"What kind of thing is this? Why am I having the same kind of nightmare for the second time? What is the solution to this warning nightmare?" He asked himself.

Ben lay down on the carpet still sweating even if the air conditioner in his room was blowing out cold air enough to make anyone take cover in a blanket.

He stretched out his hand to reach for his blanket on the bed and pulled it to cover his body not because it was extremely cold in his room, but for the fear of an imagined masquerade.

"Mehn I just hope that man ain't doing nothing to attack me" he said to himself.

He was sure terrified but the only thing he could think of was the scary dream he just had.

Anytime he had a dream that repeated itself for the second time, then there is a problem that needs a solution.

The images of his nightmare kept on appearing in his head and made him restless.

After a while, he was lost in his thoughts with a puzzled face and looked like he was drawn out of a sinking sheep.

He placed one of his hand on his lower jaw like a frustrated man, but the moment his hand reached his face, the sweat on his face made his hands slip slightly.

Later that night, his eyes were heavy again and he really did not want to fall asleep again but the moment he closed his eyes, he was fast asleep again with a puzzled look on his face.
