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.

In a quiet town wrapped in fog and secrets, something ancient stirs beneath the surface. When new blood enters a neighborhood already weighed down by silence, curiosity can become dangerous. Some doors are locked for a reason... and some truths are meant to stay buried. But for April, once she knocks-there's no turning back. ⟡𖤐⟡✧⟡𖤐⟡✧⟡𖤐⟡✧ April had always been curious about the new boy named Gregory, who had moved into her neighborhood. He was quiet, always alone, with a stare that seemed too heavy for someone his age. Rumors began to spread-whispers of screams in the night and strange symbols drawn in red near the woods. Due to him not showing up to school regularly and having been acting quite strange, April's curiosity turned into obsession. Her dreams became disturbed, filled with flickering shadows and haunting whispers that spoke his name. Unexplained disappearances and brutal attacks from a mysterious creature started happening. Victims were found torn apart-no trace of the attacker, only claw marks and eerie silence. And April happened to be stalked by something lurking through the shadows. She soon discovers and is surprised to see who it is. A face she trusted. Having a rare condition... one hidden for generations.

We are Weapons
In the misty town of Westeria Valley, the past still lingers-unseen, but never silent. Laughter echoes from the woods, shadows flicker without light, and something ancient waits just beyond the trees. When a group of children begin to uncover strange clues buried beneath their quiet town, they're pulled into a game they never agreed to play. With each step, the line between reality and nightmare fades. Can they uncover the truth before the valley's secrets consume them-or are they only pawns in something far more sinister? What is it that they face? A presence far older than the trees or someone vengeful enough to make the world turn upsidedown or maybe, all of this is just a sick joke for a controversial story? Why don't you find out yourself?Lengkap
