Chapter 5

I want my watchbox back” I put my hand on it, as if he was holding it.

“nothing to me sister Diana. You were the last time you wore it. Remember?”. Whatdoes thatmean? Thought. The last time I stepped on it and my leg was torn off. As if reading my mind. Lena shook her head gently,

“you still think it's real? You dream brother. Nightmares. And you took me in your dreams and accused me. As if.....it's real!”

“ even your feet are still fine” Lena glanced at my feet wrapped in my striped green plate shoes.

I swallowed with difficulty. Why is this bothering me so much.

“Then...then where were you that night? You should be in my room, sleeping with me.and your nightgown.

“yeahhh...I thought you'd hear it from mom Julia.Good sister Diana, that night I was so thirsty, then I went to the kitchen and took the pomegranate juice from the refrigerator, but I was so afraid to be in my own kitchen, and it didn't feel like waking you up. I stumbled and spilled a quarter of that juice onto my nightgown. When you get back you've started delirious, whining and accusing me”.

My eyes twitch.really? am I really dreaming? But it feels real.

“Diana?” someone touched my shoulder. I turned around surprised. Like there was an electric shock running down my shoulder.

“ya?” the senior brother I know his name. Alexi's. He looked at us with an expression I could not describe.Actually I was twice as surprised to see him.

“I didn't mean to bother you, but miss Julia was wanting you to meet her.Learn senior Alexi poked her thumb behind her shoulder. Julia's mother stood in front of the staff room, holding her arm.

He looked at me from a distance. Is this about last night? I turned to look at senior Alexi. She's so handsome. This is the first time he has greeted me.

“you're okay?” I glanced at Lena who was focused on looking at the two of us. There was a thick stroke beside his eyes. I know, the scratch indicates he does not like the presence of senior Alexi. I don't want to ruin this moment.

“ya.. yes I'm fine”

“I heard from the kids you're sick?”

“aku, I just had a bad dream..no more”. Dare right. Who would gossip if that nightmare was sick.

“oh..well, I first, I have to practice basketball, this week there is a race.you know it's been a long time I want to talk to you. If you are interested, come to the sports gor on Kenanga Street. If my team wins, the prize is good. I can buy you”.

I can't believe it. Senior alexi asked me out. Is this called dating? Of course I want to. I have wanted it for a long time too. Wanted it to be mine.

“certain,certain. I must have come”

“good! 10.00” hours senior Alexi gave his thumbs up and smiled widely. He ran away and gathered at the sports hall in Jelita's home. During these 5 years I secretly started to follow the schedule and the matches.

Is it possible that he saw me at those times? Aah I'm glad to know she wasn't affected by the gossip that hit me.

Well.I'm not sick.I'm just a nightmare.

...****************...

Krittiitt.kriit. This morning I woke up with a tremendous amount of anger. That guy, that guy kind of took out my mind and mind. Just because of that, my soul seemed to be swallowed. My life has changed so far. The woman who confessed to my aunt but actually she was someone else, the woman who finished off the roots of my life little by little. I feel like I'm losing my true side. Why can't I even choose what I want.
