I woke up immediately after that strange dream. By the way, I'm Bank Narillie.  

I stood up and started lazily making my way to the bathroom. I squeezed some toothpaste on to my toothbrush and started brushing my teeth. I opened the window in my room after I was done. I looked down the streets. I saw lots of people, shops, and buildings. And, a shadow of a man? I know that seeing a shadow is normal,but this shadow didn't have a host. It just stood there. The shadow's head started slowly turning his head toward me. I closed the window. "That was just my imgination" I muttered to myself. I changed out of my night clothes and headed downstairs. 

"Hello, sweetie" my mom said. 

"Hi Mom" 

I sat on the table and poured some milk onto my cereal. I was thinking of that strange dream. That voice had referred the girl as Relica. Was he going nuts? And that shadow. He can't be thinking of that today. Today's the last day of school. I started wolfing down my cereal. "Bye, Mom" I said to my mom. 

"Don't forget your bag Bank" 

I got my bag and headed out to the streets of San Fransisco. I hailed a taxi and asked the driver to take me to my school. He started driving when i noticed some distinguishing features about him. He wore heavily tinted round shades. He wore a brown fedora with a little shade of green. And he had a matching trench coat. He looked like an undercover spy. The man dropped me off at my school. I paid him money and left. The man pulled down his window 

"You dropped something," the man said with a deep voice. I didn't remember dropping or leaving anything. I went to the man and he produced a small envelope. He put it on my hand. 

"I don't-" I started. 

The man closed the window fast and raced down the road. What was his deal? I examined the envelope and decided to open it after school. As I neared the doors of the school, there it was. The shadow. I rubbed my eyes and the shadow disappeared. He really was going nuts.
