The Dreamer's Dream

1 TDD: If I Die

TDD: If I Die

Author's Point of view

Hours past and Theo is still playing at the clouds. Making a mansion with garden, a pool, a pet dog, and ect. And all of them are made of clouds. While he was still playing, he didn't saw the man walking on the ground with shocked and very confused face. The man looked around and suddenly, he saw the child jumping from a one cloud to another. And in a glimpse of an eye, the man disappear.

~~oOo~~

Yes! I did it!

I'm just done doing a bridge from one cloud to another. It was just a small bridge tho. So my dog could pass through. Wait what if? I will give him... Wings?

I walk to my gard---

*KKKKKRRRRRIIIIIINNNGGGG!*

This is the part that I really hate the most when I sleep - the clock, the time - but this is the most important of all. Cause I never, ever tried to sleep without a clock beside me. I set an alarm before I got to bed - before I sleep - by the way.

And on the que, my father enter our room. I mean our house. No, no wait, our kitchen I mean. Ugh! Its our living room really. Just kidding.

We live in this apartment. This is too small for us. I know there are only two of us but I just really found this "room" very small for us. This room is 4 in one: living room, dining room, bedroom, and comfort room. This room is too much, isn't it?

"You celebrate your birthday again at yout dreams, didn't you?"

He knows that dream thingy of mine. I told him before when I was younger, something like 5 or 6 years old. But you know the adults, they think children's stories are all fiction. He do not believe me, until now. When I was still going to school, because I am not now, I tell my ex-classmates and ex-friends about my ability. They was amazed by that thought. They tried to "lucid dreaming" but their parents told them that I am crazy. That I am hallucinating. That I am lying. And that was the time, they left me. That was also the reason I don't want to go to school anymore. I'd rather learn things by myself than learning with distractions. Are neigbours knew that TDD issue an---

"Hey, still there?"

Danny is waving his hand in front my face as if checking if --

"Hey?! Are you listening?"

"Yes. Yes I do."

"Then good. I brought you meats. Help me cook them, there are kind a big and many this time." He said then I saw a sack of meats beside the door. Its not that many and full but, its too much for two persons. And by the way, like what he said, he brought me meats but he didn't bought those meats, okay?

7:19 PM

Its time to work. And by the way, Danny is really good when it comes to cooking. Really.

~~~~~~~~~

As usual, he cooked a fried chicken, beef soup, and grilled pork. He wash the dishes while I clean the mess on the table. I turn off the lights, and we go to bed and ready to sleep. Ready for another night adven---

"Do you really not want to study anymore?"

I looked at Danny. He was staring at the ceiling, thinking something. While I didn't answer his question.

"Do you even care to your future? You have no idea what will happen tomorrow, next week, next month, next year, or even later. Anytime, any minute now, I may die. Or while we sleep, God can take me." He is still staring at the ceiling. Calmly.

This is the only time that my heart beats fast like this. I don't know why Danny is telling me this. I felt nervous. I think something's wrong.

Then he looked at me.

"If I die, you are alone. I won't be longer at your side. Then what? What are you going to do? Nothing? Dream forever? The world don't care about you, Theo. But he needs you. You should wake up from you fantasies. Face the reality because if you won't, you are nothing."

To be continued...

Author's Note

I will try to update everyday, but its not that long. Haha!

If you saw this sign "~~oOo~~", it means that Theo is dreaming and everything between that sign are all dreams. ;)

By the way, I know the dreams of Theo is kind a boring and childish. Well, he is still young that time and he can't imagine the things that he didn't know yet. He don't go to school remember? :) :)

Please let me know the errors.
