This dream is more vivid than the last. Riley is standing in a crowded room filled with blurred voices and white noise. Everything is black and white, their skin grey, voices too loud.

She feels trapped, suffocating, something keeping her rooted to the spot, paralyzed like a deer.

Riley squeezes her eyes shut tightly, and after a moment, she opens them again.

Everyone is suddenly looking in the opposite direction, their mouths stretching open, but no sound, like a glitch in a computer.

Riley feels herself moving, without a conscious thought, and sees her glowing, full of color.

Nomi smiles at her, holding a drink, her frames rose red. She opens her mouth, but Riley will never know if she said anything because she is awake now, in her room.

It is dank and dark, as if a switch was flipped off.

The bright lights of her dream remain in her head, and Riley grips her blanket, suddenly feeling as if she were about to float away.

Riley sat and wondered if it really was a dream, or something worse.
