I could hear the shower running
The hot water system of our small on campus apartment was loud and clear  with a thumb, the water stopped, causing a water hammer to recochet through the thin plaster walls.

It had to have been Katie she's the only one who can shower in the middle of the night.Crazy girl!I tossed off the thick blankets encasing me,slipped into my slippers and ran to the bathroom.....i made a soft knock on the door.

"Katie! "I half shouted at her but there was no response.i start thumping my fist on the door"Katie are you okay! "

"Mia... Mi.....aa.."I hear a shaky voice from the other side...that's Katie she must be not be okay...."Mia! "I hear from the other side and half a second later the door opens to reveal a scared Katie clasping a towel around her body.....her hair still wet.....she's shivering.i can't tell if it's from the cold or she's scared.....

"please kill it! Please kill it! "Katie is literally shouting from the top of her voice ."Kill it? "my mind is still slow from sleep and am dazed.

"Oh God please kill it! "she shouts again.....there is a terrified expression from her doll like features.....she points a finger and I follow the direction.....but what Katie is pointing at is not an" IT".it actually looks like a person.

There is a tall figure standing right next to the door but I could not tell whether the figure was a female or male but what I could make out....there was a person in our room!

I try to move closer for closer scrutiny..."What are you doing.....kill it! "I hold my breath....what is weird though is the fact that Katie is referring to the person as an it......

"Wake uppppp you sleepy head"I get startled and sit up straight on my bed.
"woah woah.....sorry I   scared you....wake up you'll get late for your first class"Katie grimaced.It is then that I make out that I am dreaming.

I focus on my senses though my mind still a bit slow I take my towel and go to the bathroom......as soon as I get in the bathroom all the memories of the weird dream I had start flowing through my head.....i ignore it.... Katie looks fine so it definitely was a dream......what a strange dream!

The walk to class is weird and I am still thinking about the dream.....i wonder if I should tell Katie.....

"Hey weirdo.....remember our date okay! "Fidel says and he sprints off to class he prolly was late to class.....I look at his masculine body disappearing...ugh! I wish I knew why I had that dream!... But I decide to put it aside for the rest of the day.I take out my phone during the break that I had for my first class and I call Sundus maybe she'll know.......she has always helped me out in many situations where I didn't know what to do so she definitely will help me....

I call her and she picks up on the second beep....."Heyy best friend OMG I really missed you and I have a lot to tell you"sundus was a very talkative person and warm and most people liked her and were comfortable around her.....God I missed her!  I smile a little."Heeyyy goofy....i missed you too and I have a lot to tell you too...well not a lot but yeah somehow lmao....."I hear her laugh at me on the other end....."Okay bitcho........ Lemme go first then......so I have good and bad news....the good news is Liam actually likes me backkkkk like damnnn girll Liam LIKES ME "I laughed......i was happy for her honestly.....she'd been obsessed by basketball player in highschool....well.....he was cute....and Sundus's heart would always melt when she saw him...."and the bad news is.....momma actually lost her job and that restaurant is literally what the entire family depends on.....i don't know what we will do but Inshaallah everything will be alright "she says sadly and I can feel her sadness from her voice.... It's probably not a good idea to tell her about my dream......"Am sorry best friend y'all be okay...... Can I call you later I need to attend to my next class "

I quickly hang up before she complains that I didn't tell her my news....i sigh and go to school.
