u may wanna turn off the sound before reading this. If not it's hard to focus :)
I stared at the face printed on The Straits Times front cover, wondering why it was so familiar, but no, no matter how hard i thought, nothing sparked off... "Boy suspected to be leader of rape cases, police on the lookout.." Rape cases, i pondered.
Upon entering the female washroom, i realised something was amiss. It was so dreadfully quiet and lonely, as though darkness had engulfed everything. It's okay, i thought, after all it was just a toilet... 5 minutes after i entered the cubicle, i took a glance up. Fear crept up my veins, as i stared, at the boy, who gave an ever so cunning grin. I stifled a gasp. The boy, he was Dinosaur. Those pointy teeth, that blade thin chin, that gel-ed up pointed hair. Everything about him resembled the face of that boy on the headlines. It was him, Dinosaur.
I ran. As fast as i could. Out of the toilet. Out of his sight. Back to the school grounds. Then, suddenly, everyone disappeared. There was not a soul in sight, not a sound, just like the toilet. I was afraid. The Dinosaur will soon attack, along with his fellow gangmates. They would stalk me and haunt me down. I couldnt walk home alone. Grabbing my cellphone, i considered calling mom, but then again, images of how mom and I are going to face Dinosaur and his gang surfaced in my mind. I need someone who can scare them off. I need Dad. They wouldnt dare to do anything. Dad is strong and fierce, they wouldnt dare harm me, or so i thought.
I held on to Dad tightly, school uniform soaked with perspiration. As soon as i glanced back, fear struck my heart again as i saw Dinosaur following us at a distance, his sly grin still printed on his dark, fox-like face. I jerked Dad. "He's behind," I whispered, shivering in fright. Everything happened so quickly then. Suddenly i felt something hard on my arm, which sent shock and pain that blinded me. I felt Dad's firm hands pushing me to a side. Lying on the cold cement floor, i gasped in despair when i saw Dad being surrounded by Dinosaur and his gang. "Run girl, run! I can withstand them, run away from here, go to the police!" Dad yelled, and that was when Dinosaur started whacking Dad with that menancing metal bat.
Tears of fear started pouring out in large torrents, momentararily sending stings in my eyes. I could not watch. Dad was going to die, he was. "Stop it, stop! Take me away, leave him alone!" I screamed, struggling to reach Dinosaur's ankles. With a sly grin, Dinosaur yanked me on his shoulders and ordered his gang to stop, leaving a bruised and bloody daddy lying at a corner. Dad tried to follow us, he struggled in pain, not wanting to give up. "Daddy, dont come, please, dont," I breathed, as fatigue overtook me and slammed my eyes shut.
My nightmare was weird right? Haha. But really scary. 2 nights ago one. lol.
