Perhaps it was a dream, she thought. Perhaps if she pinched herself, she would wake up. But she didn't want to wake up. She wanted to stay in this dream world where everything was perfect! She lived in this dream world where she was the prettiest of them all! Where she had the hottest boyfriend of them all. Oh lets not forget she also had a YouTube channel with over 1 million subscribers.

Now, this dream world she lived in, in her dreams somewhat was like her actual life... Could it be that she was dreaming about a life before this one? Or could it be that her life was just that sad, that she had to make up a false one? It didn't matter. All that she knew was that she loved this "life" more than her actual one. In this dream world, it was like she was free from the real world! Nothing bad can happen in a dream world. I mean, anything can happen.. It's a dream world. But in this dream world? It was nothing but positive vibes or whatever the mind wanted.

"I love this world!" She thought to herself. "I never wanted to go home... I never want to freed." But she knew she couldn't stay here. She knew eventually she would have to wake up and face reality. That sadden her when she thought about it. "What's wrong?" her dream boyfriend asked. "I have to go soon." She responded with a sadden look on her face. "it's okay. I do too." he replied with a smile on his face. "What do you mean? You live here..?" She says looking at him confused. "You do know this is a dream world right? Nobody stays here forever, nobody lives here. We're all actual people with actual life's. I'm an actual human not a made up person and so are you. Sounds crazy right? It's crazy right? It's crazy how your mind has a mind of it's own! Well, I'm waking up now. See you soon." And with that he was gone.

When he left all she could think about is what he said. She was talking to an actual person this whole time and didn't even know it? Its crazy the way the mind is built. The whole city even resembles an actual one! No wonder she can't remember anything when she wakes up. Is it like this with everybody? It really has her thinking.. Has she been dreaming a lie this whole time?

"OH NO! Please no! I can't be waking up! I need more time.." And with that, she was back to her life.. Not there was anything wrong with it. It's just that she doesn't have control of the things that happen in the "real" world.

-The real world-

Do you ever ask yourself "Why do things happen the way they do? Well I do all the time. Because lets be honest, my life freaking sucks. Let me give you a little history on myself. My name is Brianna Foster I am 15 about to be 16 next month! I am a sophomore attending RHS. I have a brother named Jordan he's a senior at RHS but he's not important. I am also African American. I have a boyfriend of 3 almost 4 years named Tyler and his Sister Taylor(they're twins) is my best friend. I am 5'0 exactly and I also have long wavy hair. Now, lets go a bit deeper to the dark side. Last year during my freshman year something bad really happened to me to the point where I even tried to kill myself. I was really depressed for a good 5 months and during those months I wasn't myself. I was always cutting myself hoping that I can finally bring myself to kill myself. And than one day it almost worked.. That story is for a different day. But anyways that's some facts about myself.

"Aye lil sis you ready?' He asked standing in my doorway.

"Yeah hold on let me go put my socks on and than I'm going to put my Nike slides on." I say as I do just that.

"okay hurry up. I'll be in the car."

"Okay I'll be down in 5."
