Last night I had a long dream.

In my dream, I had a family dinner, not a wonderful; happy and close re-union one. (My family always has this kind of formal dinner) The restaurant is posh, the food is well presented, but I wonder of how many of us really feel the taste. We did not communicate much. I stay until the dinner was over, I step out of the restaurant and I feel much better by the welcome of the sun light and the fresh air……

I was walking slowly, thinking;  “What is the meaning of this kind of gathering? A show to the others that we have a happy family? But who does really care of any others?” I always feel that I don’t belongs to this party, I am an extra member from it. But they are too good to have me and I should be grateful. Everyone has their reason to be there, but I don’t have one, but I have to act like I appreciated their invite, or I will lost my only family.

Unconsciously, I walked into a path I used to wonder around when I was a kid. This road lay close to my first primary school. Along two edge of the road were trees, tall and high; I love to step on this smooth surfaced path, mixed with little stone and cement. And the trees, holding the boiling afternoon sun away from my world. It’s the only side track to the village off from the main road. We did not have much cars around that time, nor the pedestrians. It was quiet and peaceful, I was like thise feeling so much, the world is so big, and I am the only one person in my own way. I was six year old!

Then suddenly, in my dream, the world has changed from the day to night, it was so dark. I saw a spot of tiny red light, moving in circle, clearly, it is a headlight from a toy train. It was circling following the tracks on the ground. I don’t feel right, I think I know what was it, my consciousness tell myself to leave this place as soon as possible. When I approached the toy train, there is a boy’s voice speak to me. I can’t remember what he had said now, but do remember that his words and sounds did not sound scare, he was rather friendly and do was my answer. (I also forgot what did I say to him) I did not quicken my footstep incase to misleading him that he has made me feeling uneasy.

When I passed him and his toy train, I saw not far in front of me, an old lady, with her sparsely hair, a thick white coat, long white dress and hair. She carried a wooden chair, put it in a tree then, she climbed up on the small chair, slowly she started to pick the tree leaves. I could feel my heart wants to jump out of my mouth, I know that I have to leave here as quick as I could. I could see the twilight from the end of the road, the end of this wood. I knew that I have to “fly” .

Yes, I always flying in my dream.

I gently tipping my toes, my body started floating up, I call on the wind to come hurry.

The wind, obeying my summon, hastily, anxiously rushing to my way, abused countless leaves crush to me. My body swayed from left to right, breaks against the wind and I was fly in the air. I would see nothing but the foggily light mixed with dozens of flying leaves. I told myself, the stronger the wind, the faster I would fly. When I flight shoot passed the old lady, I realised she did not turn her head to me but she said with a claim commanded voice, “Such a strong wind will make damage and dangerous to other people!”. I think, that’s too true. I call for the wind to stop.
I have already left the forest and the dawn come. I felt my body was sinking by the lacking of support from the wind as soon as I feel safe and relief to see the city and the buildings. I immediately call for the mild wind. I was no longer rushing my speed.

I flight passed the city’s high buildings, I could see a harbour. Then came a loud noise from explosion shaken the whole world, I saw a huge fire break through from the middle of a vessel. The vessel, followed the sound, fall apart in to two. I knew that I have to be quick, but also, I knew that I have come too late. I heard people on the pier shouting, “Too late, too late, he is too close to that shark……

When I arrived, I saw a sea of blood, the already far away shark fin, and the half float up body…..

I was shake and shocked, I cried. I have come too late, too late…..

I rubbed my eyes, I open my eyes. It was all a long dream……
