CHAPTER 8: DINNER
A knock came on the door, 'could that be Sasha?? but she just took out the tray now, or could it be that she forgot something? By the way, she doesn't knock before entering so how come she's doing so now??'
I got off the bed and stood in anticipation for whoever was at the door. The knock came again and I realized that whoever it was on the door was never going to come in except I grant them permission."C..come in" I simply stated out of impulse and in came the... I mean them, they were two girls in uniforms, but they were much older than I am. I am beginning to wonder, are they maids? I that what Sasha is too??"Good evening ma'am" they both greeted in unison, "good evening" I responded. "It's time for your bath ma'am" one of them said and that's when I noticed the items they were carrying, blankets, some change of clothes and some other stuffs I can't make out."My bath??" I asked like I didn't understand what they meant, "yes ma'am" anothRelated chapters
OUT OF MY DREAMS (MY MYSTIC KING) CHAPTER 9: KING JONATHAN MAXWELL
Soon we were in front of my door and we bid ourselves good night and I entered. As soon as I entered, I slumped into the bed and gave out a sigh of relief. And I looked up at the ceiling, it's the end of the day and I still have no idea why I'm here, yet I'm already getting comfortable.I shut my eyes to sleep, but all I could see was his face, those icy blue eyes. "What exactly do you want from me?? Why are you keeping me here?? Let me go already!" I muttered to myself still with my eyes shut, I wasn't sure if I was asleep or still awake, but I was surely aware of what I wanted; to go home.No matter how much they try to make me comfortable here, I will never be. But am I sure I want to go back to that slum again??Certainly not. Last night's bathing rituals repeated this morning and I must say that I had a good night sleep and I'm certainly gonna have an amazing day after th
OUT OF MY DREAMS (MY MYSTIC KING) CHAPTER 10: "GOING SOMEWHERE??"
My legs began to wobble and soon I came crashing to the ground, "Sekani!" he shouted as he quickly came to my side to help me. He tried to touch me but I held up a hand in front of him, "don't touch me" I said without sparing him a glance. Apart from in the movies, I've never heard a gunshot before in my life, the sound of it was terrifying talk more of being at the receiving side of the gun, I can't imagine what it feels like. I'm going to need more than a few days to get over this trauma, I don't think anyone deserves to be shot dead, just what could he have done to deserve such horrific death?? Did he kill someone?? I was panting like a race dog, I struggled to regulate my breath again, I swear if I hear that sound one more time then my heart might fail. "Don't tell me you haven't heard a gunshot before" he said and I shot him a disbelieving glare. "You think it's normal to hear such a horrendous sound?? Since wh
OUT OF MY DREAMS (MY MYSTIC KING) PROLOGUE
"Nooooo!!!" I screamed as I woke up tossing the duvet aside.It was my nightmares again; the ever familiar one. It felt so real like it was happening in real life. But what I found strange was that, this one dream keeps repeating itself, night after night, that I've gotten familiar with it, familiar with this one face, even though I'm yet to meet him in person.But does he even exist?? There was no way to know that, he looked like the sort of face you see in the movies or on a billboard or even on a magazine cover page...
OUT OF MY DREAMS (MY MYSTIC KING) CHAPTER 1: NIGHTMARES
Each night, I sleep in expectancy, but no matter how many times I have this dream, I never get use to it, I wake up each night screaming like a lunatic. And it became a norm for my landlady to yell and bang on my door every night.'Bang! bang! bang!' "Sekani! can you turn it down??! holy moly! I'm trying to get some sleep here, you know, I've had it with your nightly disturbance! If you can't contain your madness, then go stay in the mental asylum where you belong! urghh!"Just as I thought.I consider myself unfortunate and unlucky to have gotten a room just next to my landlady's; if only that could be called a proper room, but it was a room at least; a storeroom made of a plywood door and that made poor security.I knew that as long as my nightmares persists, she will continue her embarrassing act, I mean, other neighbors could hear her for Christ's sake! I can only hope for the nightmares to stop, by my hope was beginning to waver because it's been 4 years ever since it began, but
OUT OF MY DREAMS (MY MYSTIC KING) CHAPTER 2: JOB HUNTING
I picked up the socks I had started knitting last night, I needed something to keep busy with till it's time for my bath. I had finished the other pair yesterday, hopefully I would finish this one before daybreak.knitting is a skill I learnt during my years at the orphanage, back there almost everyone could.Luckily, I finished the socks before 5am, just a few minutes before. I picked up my bucket and headed to the public bathroom, we used buckets because the bathroom shower was broken, but there was a tap in it at least. So technically, you fetch your water from the tap and then you know, do your thing the traditional way.After my bath, I prepared for work... I mean, job hunting, I didn't have breakfast because there wasn't any. I was going to use the only money I had on me for my taxi fare.So I hit the road and almost immediately, I boarded a taxi. I had a mental list of firms and workplaces I wanted to call in for job vacancies, and I was contemplating on which to check first, bu
OUT OF MY DREAMS (MY MYSTIC KING) CHAPTER 3: CAME ALIVE?
This can't be happening! hold on... I must be dreaming! yes! that must be it! but it feels so...real. "Wake up Sekani! wake up!" I muttered to myself as I tapped, pinched and did everything I could to wake up from this traumatizing daydream. I looked again at the car, but saw nobody again, as a matter of fact, the car had already drove off."phew!" I blew air out of my mouth, I must have been imagining things, how could I possibly have seen him?? he doesn't even exist, as far as I'm concerned, he's just my nightmare wearing a handsome face. But is this a new level of my nightmare?? creeping out of my dreams and making me imagine things in the day?? If this happens one more time then I might go crazy, it's enough having those frightening nightmares at night, but imagining them in the day? that would definitely freak me out.Maybe the face I saw simple had a strong resemblance with my mystic king and the resemblance triggered my nightmares memories, but how can someone have a strong res
OUT OF MY DREAMS (MY MYSTIC KING) CHAPTER 4: ABDUCTED!!!
I got off the bed and did my morning rituals cheerfully unlike usual, today has proven to be a promising day and remembering that today was my first day at my 'permanent job' added to my joy, I even made extra efforts to dress my best.I had no mirror, but I knew I was good to go, sometimes I make use of my landlady's glass window to consider my appearance, cos it does reflect one's image.As I got out of my room I bumped into my landlady, 'oh no! someone is about to ruin my day!' "Selena! so it turned out you could step it down on your shrieking thing for one night afterall!" she said with so much sarcasm. "Good morning to you too Mrs Wilson!" I greeted with an overly sugary smile" "good morning, if you knock it off entirely then we wouldn't have any problems" she said.I smiled at her as I made to leave, but she stopped me, 'what now?!' I frained in my head, but my facial expression was still as it was. "Don't forget my money, very important, you only have till Friday to pay up" she
OUT OF MY DREAMS (MY MYSTIC KING) CHAPTER 5: CREEPED OUT
"B..boss! you're here" the first man stuttered, but the man being spoken to seems to have his eyes somewhere else."Good morning boss!" the other man greeted, "chains, what were those for??" the mysterious man asked looking at the chains on the floor, I heard the man that had untied me curse silently.I've been fighting to see who this 'boss' was, to see his face at least, maybe it could turn out to be someone I knew, but I couldn't, the flash light was focused on me, and it somehow blurred the faces of the two men behind it."Uhh... t..the chains were for..." "You had her chained up??" he asked in a demanding but calm voice, his voice echoed in the room, but he didn't even appear to be trying; he did it so effortlessly. "Talk you bloody fool!" the other man shouted at his colleague, "you were the one that had her abducted! and then you knocked her out and then had her chained up! I told you that you would be sorry!" he continued.I get what he was trying to do, to save himself from
