One of the dreams I had last week started off like I was in this strange unknown neighborhood it was so silent almost like as if everyone was dead , it was during the evening, the pinkish orange puffy clouds setting above the mountains as the sun slowly hides away and this little blond boy with a blue and white stripped shirt and blue shorts and he had no shoes on,the little boy looked pale, sick he had black in the white part of his eyes and the corners of his mouth were green with bumps all around, I cringed at the sight of his face. Then he told me to follow him inside this weirdly shaped house, gently tugging me across the street.

As I walked in the house, it had a strange yet addicting scent, it was hard to see of how dark it was inside but there was a little shine of light peeking through a curtain.…
