I woke up from my dream that morning and ran as fast as lightning screaming at the top of my voice
"WATER WATER!"
out on to the deck to see the water, that I dreamt about. Suddenly I freeze staring at the 'sea' and find that the wrinkles staring at me.
"Back to reality" I mutter to my self and slowly sink down on to my knees in disappointment. A sudden chorus of shouts come from behind me, it's Amelia, my mum and her mum.
"WHAT!? WATER"
They shoot of the room onto the deck as fast as a bullet screaming with excitement. Then they look at me then the 'sea' and then back at me again. The beaming grin on their faces slowly sank back into their boring frowns as they trudge away.
I sit in the deck staring at the sky whispering to myself
"Rain, please rain"
I chant this quietly under my breath in hope for rain to fall from the sky. A voice from the background says to me
"Who are you talking to, Silly"
It's Amelia. We both give a little chuckle to ourselves,
"You know there will never be water there"
She says.
"I know, I guess life is not like a dream"
She pulls a confused face at me and I smile at her, she then smiles back. We both sit there staring into the sky.
HOPING.
