Chapter Six
War in Heaven
After a quick shower I dressed up to go downstairs and hope to lose her in the mall. I just can't take my mind off the things I dreamed of. I want to know the truth about this dream that haunts me. The internet can give me lots of information but I believed that there are things that are not in web and was kept secret and I know the National Library will do the trick.
Sherwin: Hey Sid! Are you done and ready?
Sid: One more minute and I will be down there.
I was about to go down stairs when I noticed a shadow of a person with wings. I looked behind to the source of the light to see the real figure of the shadow but there is no one there. Am I imagining things now or it is my dream becoming a part of my reality? Maybe my mind is preoccupied of the characters in my dream reason I am seeing or imagining things. I looked back once more then went downstairs.
Sid: Sorry to keep you waiting but I am not expecting you being here so early so I am not ready when you came.
Claire: It's okay. I understand and beside that Sherwin kept me entertained.
Sid: So what's up?
Claire: Nothing. I just want to see you. Why, are you going to do anything today?
Sid: Not much! How would you like to go to the mall?
Claire: I would love to. Let's go then and watch movie.
Sid: Hey cousin! Why don't you get dressed up and join us. Let's have brunch in the mall.
Sherwin: I am dressed up but I am full already. Claire brought a cake and I almost ate it all.
Sid: Okay! I thought you love pizza too, the thin crispy Shakey's Pizza with lots of toppings and mozzarella.
The magic words and I heard rumbling footsteps going downstairs.
Sherwin: Shall we go now?
Claire: That's great! Good thing I brought my car, we can go to the best pizza restaurant in the city. Let's go then.
In just a matter of minute, we are already on our way to the mall. I am already thinking of the best exit I can do to ditch her off. I am not that bad but I really hate a woman courting a man. I am too excited to go to the library only I noticed that the car is not actually moving. We are caught in a traffic jam. Traffic makes me sleepy so I tried to start a conversation.
Sid: Are you familiar with the story of War in Heaven Claire?
Claire: Cut the crap you faggot! War in Heaven is here on earth now!
Sherwin: Forget your dreams Naszech! The bringer of light is giving you everything to forget the Hope. Look at Claire; she is so beautiful and sexy. She's so hot that every man wants to do it her.
Suddenly Claire is naked, trying to seduce me. She's holding her breast and licking it. She moves closer and kissed me. I pushed her away and then the surrounding changed. All the vehicles around us are on fire. Everything is burning as if we are in hell. Then from the distance, I saw the dragon flying straight towards us. The dragon landed in front of the car and released its devastating breath of fire.
Sid: No! It won't end here! (I yelled)
Claire: What? (Surprised) Are you okay Sid?
From the back sit Sherwin shook me off. He tapped my face to see if I'm already awake.
Sherwin: Are you okay cousin? I guess you fell asleep on this traffic.
My heartbeat is still a bit fast and my mind is still confused but I am already aware that I slept and started dreaming again.
Sid: Sorry Claire. I slept and had a bad dream. The bringer of light is hunting me in my dream that haunts me.
Claire: It is okay Sid! I guess you have seen the movie trailer that is now showing in the mall. I think it is "Heaven's Warrior" and it's about War in Heaven and the hope of mankind.
Sherwin: Drop it cousin. Now it's getting into your system. He thinks he is one of the fallen angels Claire. (Laughing)
Claire: You are so cute Sid. That's why I can't get you off my mind. You always make me smile. Are you okay now?
Sid: Don't say it again cousin or I will tell Claire your dirty secrets. (Laughing) Thank you Claire but I am fine.
Claire: Now I know what we can do. After eating why don't we watch that movie. Maybe you'll find yourself in there Sid. (Smiling)
Sid: Okay! That is a good plan. (Smiling)
Sherwin: That's great!
I agree not only because I really want to see that movie about War in Heaven but that is also the best escape plan for me to ditch her off. A few minutes later, we are already out of the traffic and a few more minutes we are already eating inside the mall with Sherwin's favorite pizza and mozzarella. After eating we end up inside a movie theater watching how the legions of angels fought with each other. It was a war between good and evil.
