Chapter 11 - The three headed dog

"Wait!" I shouted and I immediately got up, I look around and saw I was in my room and still in my bed.

I slap my forehead in frustration but Immediately winced in mine. "Ouch!" I complained as I rub my forehead.

But the image of the man that I met in my dreams flashed into my mind again which made me stare in oblivion. Instead of me writing it down right away in case I might forget it, I just stared into the unknown while being flustered as his image flashed into my mind.

I covered my face with both of my hands and squealed, "Who the hell is that man..." I talked to myself.

Will I ever see him again?

I froze because of the question that pops into my mind, "WHAT THE HELL!" I blurted out in shock.

Why am I thinking like this!

It's literally a dream! It's only a dream and he is just a fragrant of my dream that will slowly vanish into thin air!

I impetuously got up in my bed while I keep on muttering things for I'm angry. I don't understand why would I feel this way just because of a dream! They're all just dreams! But why I'm taking this seriously?

Afternoon came and I sat in disbelief for I still remember the man in my dreams even though I didn't write it to remind me that I have got a dream with a man and I still remember every detail of how he bumped me, what we talked about and the last thing he told me before he walks away from that we would meet again.

Night came and I didn't see him in my dreams but I was still in the village that I've been in for how many times. But there was a big dog, roaming and roaring around and making the entire people I'm with panic.

"Run! It's Cerberus!" A shout rang out and there were people screaming everywhere.

And I have no choice but to panic too! When there is a big three-headed dog going ballistic who wouldn't panic!?

But Cerberus! That dog is from the underworld right!? Then why is he here! Shouldn't he be guarding the gates!

But what if this is the underworld!?

That's impossible! This is not the underworld!

This village looks too good and peaceful for it to be an underworld!! That's impossible!

I have no choice but to run away in a horde of people and I saw there was an alley where I could run and hide there. I changed my direction and went straight to the alley but I froze when I saw a dark shadow on the corner of my eyes. The shadow is so big it almost covered the entire village, a wind with an unusual smell came to me which made me winced for my nose didn't like it.

I slowly look at my left side and I literally froze and felt my whole world stop, when I saw a very big thing at it had a pointy tip. I slowly addressed whoever it was and I staggered when I saw the entirety of it.

"H-hey!" I nervously said to the beast in front of me and made a fake smile.

I shouldn't have taken another route! Now, look at me! Trap by a beast!

The three-headed dog brought their face close to my face and sniffed at me and I close my eyes in fear.

"Please don't eat me, I don't taste go---" I said nervously while closing my eyes.

And all of a sudden I felt something thick but soft-touch my body and I could feel the stickiness on my skin that made my face frown into disgusts. I slowly opened my eyes and saw the beast in front of me now sitting down and the three heads are happily smiling at me while their tongues are out and I could see their big tails behind waging at me.

I slowly looked at my sticky arms and my dress. The middle head's mouth is already dripping with saliva and I knew immediately what's thing sticky on my skin. Their saliva!

I swallowed hard to look them straight in their eyes. "H-hello!" I said while wincing because the stickiness is on my skin is bothering me.

They stood up and started jumping which made the ground move, it's just like an earthquake and I almost fell to the ground. They started barking and it almost made my eardrums shatter.

"Calm down!" I said while having a hard time standing straight and while covering both of my ears.

They immediately stop and look at me but then suddenly the three heads look back and ran. "Wait!" I said in shock for they've run.

I was left there not knowing what to do while processing in my brain what had happened to me. but not too long ago the ground shook and I lost my balance and then I saw the dogs coming to me again! With a big tree, the tree is in the mouth of three dogs as they happily ran into me.

When they got close to me they dropped the big tree in front of me while wagging their tail I just looked at them not knowing what to do.

they were waiting for me to do something but I didn't know what to do. What am I going to do with this tree!? Is it for me to plant!?

Maybe they wondered why I just looked at them with a clueless look, the middle head bowed and gently moved the tree with his nose.

"O-oh! You w-want to play fetch?" I said in shock and they all barked happily and the movement of their tails quickened.

I would willing to play fetch with them but how will I throw this big ass tree!? I might die because my back cracks if I try to lift it!

"I can't lift this..." I said with a sad tone of my voice and also because I was sorry because they look like they really want to play with me!

They whimpered which made me bite my lip, "I'm sorry," I said and slowly come up to them.

What should I do not to make them feel sad! I feel so guilty!

Because I was so scared! And they look like a big sweetheart that's just wanted to play!

A pat in the head!

Right!

Even though I was still nervous I still approached them and lifted my hand to touch them. Maybe the three noticed that I wanted to touch them so they slowly lay down on the ground for me to be able to reach the three of them.

My hands were shaking as I try to touch them but when my hand touches their fur it slowly vanished. It made me feel a familiar feeling, I giggled as I rub their fur. I can't rub whole of them because they are so big but they look so satisfied with my touch and their eyes are closed but their tail is still wagging which made me laugh a little in amusement.

We stayed like that but I was surprised when someone suddenly whistled not far away. The three-headed dogs stood up and I backed away, they look excited because they heard the whistle!

They barked back not far from where the whistle came from and looked back at me, while I wondered who was the one that whistled. Who is that!?

They licked me again so I closed my eyes, then they whistled again and they started to walk but when they were a little farther away from me they looked back at me again while I stand there not knowing what to do and then they walked faster and faster until I couldn't see them anymore.
