Adventure In The Dark
Tragedy 14 - Dream
...***...
"That dream again." Rei murmured as soon as he was completely conscious one hundred percent.
Why do I keep dreaming the same thing? What the hell's going on? Why do dreams always come when I close my eyes? thought Rei. He was silent in his daydream.
It had been many times, ever since Rei had regained consciousness in a foreign place on an island that was nowhere. And, ever since Rei came to his senses, Rei has always dreamed the same thing ever since.
Every time the dream came, every time it was also his head overreacted. His head always hurt every time he woke up from his dream.
Rei's attention in an instant was seized by the sound of knocking on the door he heard. He looked towards the door of his closed room.
"Rei, can I come in?" william shouted at the door.
"Y. yeah. Come in" replied Rei. William opened the door slowly until he showed his figure standing in the doorway.
"Evening is ready. Come down, and eat with us."
"You go first. I'll wash my face first."
"Ok, then."
William moved out of his place. Walk into the kitchen to meet Elvina who has prepared dishes for their meal tonight.
After William left, Rei was silent for a moment. In the next second, he woke up to the bathroom to wash his face.

Yoke!
Joe put an empty glass in his hand on the table. He put it quite rough, to the point of making a little water in it splash out.
Derek looked at his brother through the tip of his eyelashes. Joe still displayed such a powerful aura of anger, Derek could clearly sense it.
The creaking of the chair that Joe was sitting on was heard interrupting the silence that enveloped them. Joe got up, stepped away from Derek who was still enjoying his dinner which even felt bland.
Derek stared at Joe's back who suddenly stopped a few meters from the dining table.
"I don't want to know. Anyway, you have to stop that research!" Joe pressed every sentence, hoping that with the pressure, Derek would stop doing the dangerous thing.
Derek was silent, he lowered his head. Both hands clenched tightly grasping the spoon and fork in his hand.
"I can't," he said slowly.
Joe's emotions increased in an instant. But with all his might, he tried to hold back his anger. Joe does not want to attack or hurt Derek, however he is the only family he has.
"After all, I will continue this research. Because I don't want more people to use them. With professors doing all this, they have indirectly changed human civilization and changed the future. I'm gonna stop that from happening."
Joe turned to look at her with a look of annoyance. "Aren't you aware that what you're doing is dangerous to you? Dangerous for both of us? Why are you so stubborn. Can't you behave like other evolvers who live their lives properly?" joe exploded. Derek was surprised.
"Stop your research!"
