Something funny happened today. I was walking towards the foodcourt for my late lunch, fresh from reading New Moon in the morning and more than couple hours of yesterday. So as I turned a corner, that split second, two things registered in my head. The whole place was hidden in shade, except this rectangular spot on the ground which was exposed to direct sunlight -- and a lady was right on that patch on sunlight. At that same second, I swear I cursed silently in my head, astonished and bewildered why in the world would the lady walk in the direct sunlight and have herself exposed and then her skin will start to sparkle brightly in it.
Well of course her skin did not sparkle in the sunlight, like vampires do in the Twilight series. Too much vampire stories with people hunted and killed I even dreamt I got hunted by 2 guys (like Bella did by James and Victoria), one of them even had a pony tail like James did. It felt kind of real.
Before I got stabbed by one of them, I remembered pleading. They had looked smug. It all happened so fast. After I was stabbed, I was left to bleed alone in the room. Soaked in my own pool of blood, I could soon smell it. But I fought to stay conscious. I knew that feeling..though it wasn't exactly the same, it felt like the time where I fell off my skateboard and laid there unable to move. I guessed that unmoving part was part of the immediate shock or something at that time. And so I laid there, too weak to move..waiting for myself to bleed out. I remember being gradually able to feel the warmth -- Warmth of my blood as they ooze downwards from the wound on my stomach where the dagger was still there, to the rest of my body. As I began to feel myself slipping away, I remember that somehow, I know that I can make a choice. I could give in to the darkness and unknown, somehow feeling that it would be the place where everything will end and peace awaits me. But I can also fight to keep myself awake. And alive.
And then I woke up.
I did make a choice in my dream, and I remembered. I surprised myself..kind of.
