Chapter 1 : Nightmare

"AAAAAHHH"

A loud scream can be heard from a bedroom.

It was a scream coming from pain.

Panting heavily, fast heartbeat, and profusely sweating.

"What terrible dream" he said

After waking up from the nightmare, he took a moment to steady his breath and collect his thoughts.

"I have to get up now"

He got up from the bed and he meticulously straightened the sheets, smoothing out the wrinkles and tucking them neatly under the mattress.

"There it looks clean now"

After fixing his bed he goes straight through the door, before reaching the door a knocking sound and woman voice came from it.

"Hey Robert, Are you okay?"

The sound coming from outside the door seems concerned about the screaming she has heard from the bedroom.

"Yes Mom" He responded

"Okay the breakfast is now set and get ready for school now"

As he opened the door, he was greeted by a delightful aroma that wafted through the air, instantly drawing him in. There, before him, lay a table laden with a scrumptious and hearty breakfast spread. His eyes widened with surprise and gratitude as he took in the sight before him.

The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.

"Wow this looks delicious mom!" he said with such enthusiasm

Freshly baked bread, still warm from the oven, beckoned to him with its golden crust. A platter of assorted fruits, vibrant in color and ripe with sweetness, offered a refreshing and healthy start to the day. There were bowls of creamy yogurt, adorned with crunchy granola and drizzled with honey, a tantalizing combination of flavors and textures.

If it were to describe it, it looks like a shiny diamond because its aesthetically pleasing.

With a grateful smile, he pulled out a chair and sat down at the table. He savored every bite, allowing himself to be fully present in the moment, appreciating the nourishment and the comfort that the breakfast provided.

"What a feast"

"Be ready now to go to school"

As he go back to his bedroom and put on his school uniform he pondered why was his dream felt real for a moment.

"That felt too real for a dream"

"Maybe that was my past life?"

As ridiculous it may sound it is still in the realm of possibility as many people in the past have also stated the same experience but there really is no confirmation if they are telling the truth, Although one thing for sure, Robert has experienced it.

"Anyway that really shouldn't matter, I have class in an hour now"

He tidied his things up, grabbing his school bad and putting his school supplies inside his bag

"This should do it"

As he finish preparing to go to school he goes out his bedroom and look for his mother.

"Mom I'm going to school now"

"Yes, take care" She replied

Taking a deep breath, he began to search for his shoes. He retraced his steps, starting from the breakfast nook where he had enjoyed the delightful meal. He goes back to his bedroom but he can't find it. Then he remembered he keep it in the doorway.

"Ah there it is"

He put on his shoes and tie it. With his shoes securely tied and his resolve reinforced, he stepped outside, greeted by the warm embrace of the morning sun.
