Chapter 6 - Is this just a dream?

[IN DREAM]

...

He said, "STEP ASIDE" while walking in front of that monster.

He is thinking in his dream, (What the hell? I can't control what I wanna say... that monster is gonna suck dry my lifeform as well... I can't fight that thing!! But I can't control my body at all... What should I do now....." [reaction every normal person would give]

Everyone was shocked... Somehow everyone in that place could hear what Irwan said.

He then said, "GO AWAY.....AS FAR AS YOU CAN"

The ones fighting the tree monster moved as far away as they could. For some unknown reason they listened to him, maybe they saw hope in him.....

He moved the sword in a circle. A dark line was forming from the edge of the sword when he was moving his sword in a circular motion. And that dark line that was formed into a circle from the edge of the sword, darkened the whole circle. It looked like a dark portal. And then

SLASH!!!

That dark portal-like thing formed into something in a blink of an eye. It changed into a dark fireball-like thing with lighting flickering on it and hit the tree. That tree monster was trembling even before that thing hit that monster, out of fear...

It was so fast that the monster didn't even notice it clearly and didn't get the chance to shout. It hit the tree so fast that everyone present there saw something hit it but didn't see or understand what it was.

The moment it hit the monster, that dark fire lightning ball disappeared. The monster was still there, without a scratch on it...Everyone was confused... The area remained quiet for a while. The monster was quiet, confused at the same time, and kept staring at Irwan...

Suddenly everyone in that area including the monster got a chilling vibe.

!!!

A human said, "Wh..what's happening????"

All of a sudden the sky turned dark and the clouds formed and gathered into one place...., above that monster..

Everyone was afraid thinking, " what's going on? That thing disappeared after hitting the tree and now this is happening? Who is this mysterious person?..... What is going on here?..... Is this God's wrath? "

Everyone was really afraid and kept looking at the sky.

Then A heavy flash of blue lightning fell upon that Monster.....

KABOOOOMMM!!!!!!!

The whole area blew up along with the monster... There was nothing to be seen where the monster was standing... Only a hole that's burning with dark fire and lightning flickering on it...

Everyone was looking at Irwan with their afraid and hopeful eyes. Then one shouted,

"God...has saved us"

Then everyone was crying, shedding tears of happiness, brusted out of laughter and enjoyment that the monster died at least.

Then Irwan said to them, "I...."

Everyone stopped making sounds, cause they wanted to hear what this god-like figure wants to say.

"AM NOT A GOD... I AM JUST A HUMAN...."

He suddenly woke up. Then he looked at the clock. It was 7 am. Then he looked down for a while and started thinking of what's happening. Why the same dream over and over again??? And more importantly, it started from the point it was left previous time, just like yesterday...

He was talking to himself,

" Is this some kind of dark magic?..... No..... it shouldn't be. It seems like I am the main character of this dream... And...And we are in a city... Everyone will laugh at me if I say this ridiculous thing in public... But...but somehow I feel like this dream ends here since the monster died. If this really the case then it's not a normal dream... Well, doesn't matter. I am really sleepy. I should sleep for a bit longer."

He went to sleep again. At 8 am mother woke him up to close the door. Today is his first day of private with the new lady teacher. He wanted to leave a good impression in front of her, so he started studying...

As usual, he studied till 9:40 am and then he ate his breakfast and got ready for his school.

His homework given by his new private teacher was still incomplete. So he tried to complete that during classes. He somehow managed to complete the homework given by the new teacher.

The new teacher was happy that he finished the homework. Although he made a few mistakes she said, it's fine.

...

Days passes. Irwan's schedule is the same as always. Just study all the time. And nothing changed the same daily routine.

A few months have already passed. It's almost time for his Final exam of middle school. 2 days left before the Exam...

At 1:00 am, He was going to the dining room to eat his dinner. On the way, he heard his parents talk about something. He overheard their conversation,

His father was telling his mother,

"My chest is hurting for a few days and my back is also sweating too much... I went to a few doctors. Some said they don't know, one said it's for high gastric and thus he pushed an injection for it. But now the pain increased more. I can't bear it anymore..... Can you take me to a hospital? I won't be able to go alone"

Mother took him to a big hospital. Only father and mother went to the hospital and also took the little sister along with them.....

The doctor said,

"It was a heart attack. It's no gastric, no normal pain, and nothing else but a heart attack... It's been a few days since you had a heart attack. So you have to stay in the hospital."

It was a big hospital and they were a middle-class family. But they still agreed to it since the hospital is well known, they thought money doesn't matter. They will be able to manage it somehow.

When Irwan heard about his father's illness, about him having a heart attack in the phone call from his mother, his heartbeat increased. He was really afraid that something bad might happen to his father. He still comforted himself saying,

"It's fine. It's just a heart attack. He will get better. I will pray to god. I am a good boy....., God will surely save father if I pray to god....."
