I am running through an unending field, searching, searching for reassurance. I need to make it to the woods. I have to. I run and run and run, each step slowing me down and decreasing my energy. I look down, and find my feet drowning in puddles of water. Black clouds emerge from the darkness and start to pour buckets of rain. The water level is rising higher, and higher, and higher. I keep trudging, if only I could make it to the woods. I catch sight of a large tree and violently crash through the water, struggling to make it to the large tree. My legs are aching, my breath is short, and my head is pounding. I finally make it to the tree, every part of my body screaming in pain. I start to climb up the side of the large tree when the leaves above me burst into little balls of flame. I look up in fear when I see my father at the top of the tree, looking down on me.
"I love you Malea", he says, that teddy bear smile of his spread generously across his face.
"No, dad, you're burning!", I cry out for my father.
I violently try to get to the top of the tree to help my dad get down, when suddenly my feet stumble from the trunk of the tree and I fall into the rising waters. I am drowning, the darkness is swallowing me whole. I scramble to reach the surface of the waves when a hand reaches out for me. I nervously grab the shining hand. It pulls me over the surface of the water. I look up to the owner of the hand, and I see the face of a boy, a face I don't recognize. He continues to pull me upwards, towards the bright, towering sun. This boy just saved my life...
I jump up from my deep slumber, gasping for air, sweat dripping from my forehead. What kind of dream was that? I think to myself while I prop myself up on one elbow.
"Meow", I hear the reassuring sound of a familar purr.
"Aww, Jenna", I coo to my Siamese kitten.
Jenna is my little kitty, and she is the cutest thing in the world. I grab her soft fur and hold her tight, trying to get those horrifying images from that nightmare out of my head. But, one part of the dream won't leave my curious thoughts.
Who was that boy?
