I woke up shouting " He is Me ". Vasilus's face looked liked mine, but how is this possible? I was worried and then I looked at the wall clock and it was about to be 4 a.m. I was sleepy but I was not ready to sleep because I did not want to see the same dream again. So, I decided not to sleep today. Few hours passed and I was sitting partially tilted on my sofa it was about to be 7 a.m. I was so tired that I could hardly stand per still manage to reach the school somehow.
When I entered the school campus, I heard a melodious voice calling my name, "Victor". I turned back and saw it was Callie who was calling me. I can't express what I felt when I so Callie uttering my name, in words.
Callie - " Hello, Victor ."
Victor ( in nervousness ) - " H...Hi, Callie ."
Callie - " Oh, you know my name. I thought that I will have to introduce myself. "
Victor - " I have heard your name during attendance. "
[ Callie and Victor starts to laugh ]
Callie - " I have heard a lot about you, Victor ."
Victor ( in nervousness to himself ) - "What's she talking about maybe someone must have mentioned my weird nature in front of her.Oh! God, help. "
Victor - " Wha.....what did you hear? "
Callie - " All good, everyone was praising you and talked good about you. "
Victor ( to himself ) - " Thank you God for saving me or rather I should thank my mates to make a good portrait of mine in front of her. "
Callie - " I wanted a favour from you. "
Victor - " Yes, anything for you. I... I mean anything for a friend. What do you want? "
Callie - " You "
Victor ( to himself ) - " What she wants me? I was worried as I thought I will have to start a conversation with her, but she is doing the work that I should be doing. No problem, she just made my work easy. "
Callie - " Hello, are you listening? "
Victor - " Yes, yes I am listening. "
Callie - " Ok then, meet me at the time of departing from the school. "
Victor - " Okay, I will be waiting near the exit gate. "
Callie - " Okay, I will join you there. "
[ Callie parted and accompanied her friends to the class ]
This talk with Callie made me forget about my dreams and I was feeling perfectly fine. Callie's words were like painkillers to me which gave me relief from the harshness of my dreams. But the painkiller vanished when Silas came running to me and shouted at me.
Silas - " You shattered my peace. "
Victor - " What? Why are you blaming me "
Silas - " Don't act like you don't know anything because of you I am seeing the same weird dream from the last few days ."
Victor - " Because of me "
Silas - " Yes, I repeatedly see that horrifying scene in my dream and this time I saw a ..."
Victor - " Go ahead, complete your sentence. "
Silas - " Leave it, this thing has nothing to do with you. I am going? "
Victor - " Silas, wait I had to tell you something. "
Silas - " No, stay away from me. I don't want to listen to anything from you. "
Victor - " But Silas, listen it's important. "
[ But Silas leaves without reacting to my plea ]
Victor ( to himself ) - " Now, what had happened to Silas? He never behaved in such a manner with me. "
Today I have experienced two things which I never expected, firstly Callie talk to me and secondly, my dearest friend whom I trusted the most Silas didn't talk to me rather he was not ready to listen to me.
I enter the classroom and went to my seat where I used to sit with Silas, but Silas was sitting at the back with Jacob and Leo came to you sit with me and asked —
Leo - " I can't believe my eyes. Silas is not sitting with you. Is he the same Silas who used to fight with me and Jacob to sit with you? What had happened to him? "
Victor - " I also don't know anything about what had happened to him? "
Leo - " You must have said something to him. Don't lie. "
Victor - " Believe me, Leo, why will I lie? I have done nothing . It's all in Silas's brain. I am innocent. "
Leo - " Do you think that I am a fool? Don't lie I want to hear the truth. "
Victor - " For God sake, believe me, Leo. I didn't do anything. "
Leo - " Didn't you tried to ask him the reason for his behaviour? "
Victor - " What do you think I didn't try to ask him? I have asked him several times, but he refused to answer. "
Leo - " He must have said something. "
Victor - " Yes, he said only one thing. "
Leo - " What he said? "
Victor - " He just blamed me. "
Leo - " I was knowing this from the very beginning, you are the reason for Silas's behaviour and you lied to me saying that you are innocent. "
Victor - " Do you want to listen to the reason for which he blamed me. "
Leo - " Yes, but it should be true. "
Victor - " Of course, he blamed me for his very own dreams which he saw and got frightened. Now Leo you tell me, how can I affect his dreams? "
Leo ( in a confused state of mind ) - " What the ..... "
Before Leo could complete his sentence our class teacher entered the classroom.
Leo - " Tell me about his dreams in detail. "
Victor - " I will not tell. Go and ask Silas about it. "
Leo ( in anger and frustration ) - " I'm gonna punch your face. Tell me about his dream fast. "
Victor - " Come and punch me I am not scared of you, but I will not tell you anything. "
Leo - " Don't force me to break your bones. "
Victor - " I don't care, do whatever you can and feel like. "
Our argument got noticed by our class teacher and he started to shout at us.
Class Teacher - " Leo and Victor, both of you leave this class immediately. "
Victor - " But Sir, I ....."
Class Teacher - " Not a word I want to listen. I will not entertain any kind of mischief in my class. Both of you leave the class immediately. "
Victor ( to himself ) - " This can't be happening, because of this Leo, I am now going to get punished for the first time in my life. What would be Callie thinking about me? I won't forgive Leo for this. "
Class Teacher - " Don't just stand here, move outside the classroom and give company to your friend, Leo.
And I had to move outside the classroom unwillingly and my mind got filled with all types of thoughts. While moving outside the classroom I noticed some strange kind of expression on Silas's face which caught my attention.
