the sound of the fire truck's alarm makes my heart beat faster.
it's exactly 12 in the midnight but but i still have to study for my exams.
as the disturbing noise of the firetrucks finally fades away, the howl of a dog continues the noise that breaks the silence of he night.
i pause and close my eyes for a while. because i can feel that my eyes are getting tired.
when i opened my eyes, i looked for the papers that I'm reading a while a go.
to my surprise, they were gone and without me knowing it.
that's so impossible, because I'm holding it and with just a blink of an eye, they were all lost.
after a while of searching for it, everything became so dark.
and i'm the only one left in the room. but it's not the room that i where before.
now, i can see the papers that i've been looking. they're a bit far, and the harder i tried to get it, the faster they're running away from me. and for a brief second, they became so big.
big enough to eat me alive.
i run and run. i can sense it, i'm just dreaming so i forced myself to wake up.
then, i woke up with my heartbeat thumping against my ribs.
that was ridiculous. i looked at my watch, thirty minutes seven.
shit! my exam will start at seven thirty. how can i be there in school in just a minute?
i was freaking out.
i can hear the tick-tock sound of a clock.
i don't know what to do.
then out of the blue, i closed my eyes.
and opened it, this time, i make sure that i not dreaming anymore.
it's one in the morning,
and my heart's beating so fast and feels like its hitting my ribs already.
this was so terrible, even in my dreams, my school work's haunting me...
