hardly simple (uneasy sequel)

a familiar nightmare

WE ARE BACK IN BUSINESS BOIS!!!))

Btw just wanted to say that I don't know to much about adult life, just the basics so some of this info may be a bit wrong))

Spinel pov

It's been a while, huh?

It's been nearly 5 years since college and a bit has happened since then

Me and volleyball have gotten our own house, and even our own jobs, and life has been....

Hard, real hard.

I've had a lot of work at the big donut, a lack of sleep, and volleyball has been working late nights at her job at the hospital (random, I know) so... yeah, not doing so well...

It was about 7 PM, I had finally left my job for the day so I was driving home.

It was hard to see, cause 1. The neighborhood had no lights so it was super dark and 2. It was raining nonstop. But hey, at least I'm still in my car-

BAP!

 My car ran over something, I don't know what but I could tell it was something big because my car immediately made this noise:

EEH, ERROR HHHH

"no, no, no,no NO!" I yelled before the car completely stopped and fell silent. I groaned before getting out of the car to see one of my tires now flat. I slapped my head and groaned again.

"Guess I'll have to walk home..." I said sadly before quickly running towards my house in the rain

10 minutes later I finally got to my house, where I immediately changed clothes due to how wet they were from the storm.

I fell down on to my bed, I was so exhausted. It fell lonely without volleyball though, I mean, I know she has her job and yes that is VERY important, but I still miss her on her late shifts

I sighed sadly before going to sleep

This new dream that I was having felt...familiar, the atmosphere felt calm but nerve wracking at the same time. Then I realized what it was.

A few years ago back in college I had a dream right when me and volleyball first kissed that she left me and went away from the college forever because of my horrible ex pink.

I was hoping that this was not gonna be that dream, but unfortunately for me, my Hope's were not gonna be able to rescue me.

I heard footsteps coming from behind me, I braced myself before looking over to see the dream version of volleyball coming over to me, she looked just like the last time I had this dream, except instead of looking like she did 5 years ago, she looked exactly like she does now.

The conversation went like it did for the last time I had this dream. There were 2 exceptions, of course.

First, unlike last time, I never responded to any of dream volleyball's comments because this time I actually knew I was dreaming. I was hoping this would just make her stop, but instead, she would keep talking, almost like I actually DID respond, even though I did not.

Second, the context was different. Last time it was all about dream volleyball leaving due to pink, but now it's about my adult life. She was talking about how she wanted to leave because, and I quote, "you think you're on top of things but your not, you're stupid, so stupid that you've even broke the car." I knew it was a dream, but it still hurt… alot.

“You know, I used to think it was funny how you always tried to be this huge goofball, but now it’s just plain annoying. Goodbye, spinel…” dream volleyball said before turning around and started to walk away. I was way too mad to let dream volleyball leave, so I spoke to her.
