HOW DOES IT FEEL TO DREAM

In a quiet town where the river whispers secrets to the wind, two teenage friends-Rob and the narrator-make a habit of escaping reality by watching the clouds roll over the countryside. But beneath their peaceful routine lies something stranger. Rob, deeply troubled, confesses a secret: he has never dreamt. Not once.

This confession unearths memories of a woman from the narrator's childhood-Mama Mathayo, the mysterious old recluse rumored to be a child-snatching sorceress and wise seer of dreams. What begins as a lazy afternoon by the river turns into a journey laced with folklore, lost memories, and the unexplained.

As the boys plan a visit to Mama Mathayo's hilltop home, they each carry their own questions-about dreams, love, and a past they've tried to forget. But some places don't stay buried, and some answers carry more weight than they're ready to bear.

A tale of friendship, mystery, and the thin veil between reality and memory, "HOW DOES IT FEEL TO DREAM " is a coming-of-age story rooted in rural lore and adolescent wonder.
