DEAR DIARY
Today is August 5, 2025. Last night i gone sleep late because of the assignment that I have to finish for tomorrow, I check the time from my phone and found out that it's almost 2:00 am. I lie immediately to my bed and after a few second i fell asleep directly. The next thing i remember is my dream, a new one. It's the continuation of my previous dream, like watching a telenovela, but what's more stranger is that i couldn't forget it. My dreams this days are much more memorable than the memories i gained from facing reality every day. Maybe thats the reason why people sleep to escape reality, but mine are different, i couldn't forget it. Science study said that dreams human experience trough their entire life is mostly forgettable but on the same token it's different from my case. My dream is reiterative and indelible
Here's where it start. Absolute darkness agglomerate my surroundings, i feel like floating on the sea at the same time, I feel like I trip from the sky. feels like i don't have my body but i could feel my weight, and because it's abidance dream, so my body is unsurprisingly still dolly, incapacitated, wondering in bewilderness. Unable to do anything, alone in darkness, and dejected. I can't breathe normally, but why im breathing in the first place? Can't relax from this head-scratching situation. Whither i could see or not, no matter the color, it's a hellish night mare to be devoured by a void of light persuasively and my situation now is much more worse than the previous dream I had.
It has an overly control of my emotion no matter how much i try to decompress, the only emotion i'm capable of letting out is fear, and sadness, monochromic void overwhelm the entirety of me, darkness deep-rooted all over that surrounds.
And all of the sudden A light appeared unanticipatedly unfold itself behind me devouring the pitch-black void's existent like in a hurry. "how nostalgic" the light that appeared is mazely recognizable, it's like looking to a sun with milky yellow-white color that blinding my sight. The vast darkness fades so fast and before i knew, it the light is now almost taking the void.
But all of the sudden, light's exertion rewind through from where it appears, it didnt vanish only making a converge movement. Dispite of its blinding light i still could see the shape it's making, and while at it the pitch-black void where it almost partake, retorted back and the light became like a something that also trap inside, relatively forming into a glow with a shape akin to a human.
"GREETINGS!" The light spoke with a deafening tone that shoke the entirety of me.
"IT'S NICE TO FINALLY MEET YOU RAVEN!" Being recognized by the light is astoundingly not surprising, maybe because this is a dream. I can't tell it's gender even though i could see it's blinding shape and hear it's deafening voice.
"DON'T BE AFRAID, IM NOT HERE TO HURT YOU!" This human like light obviously don't know how much my eyes and ears suffer just because it was around. I prefer to be alone within the void of darkness than to be with someone/something that tortures me every second without it even doing anything.
"YOUR SURPRISINGLY NOT CONFUSED, MAYBE BECAUSE YOU THOUGHT IT WAS JUST A DREAM, RIGHT? WELL, IF THIS WOULD MAKE OUR CONVERSATION WORK EASIER, THEN I SHALL LET IT BE THIS WAY." Now come to think of it at that moment, even if it's just a dream or nightmare, maybe it should at least not feel so real, but it's not. I feel like im not dreaming and this glowing something didn't help either, it only makes the situation worse and more confusing, And most of all "HOW CAN THIS BE A CONVERSATION IF I CAN'T EVEN TALK!" so i thought at that moment.
"LET ME MAKE IT STRAIGHT, I'M HERE TO CONGRATULATE YOU FOR TAKING THE FIRST STEP, YOUR NOW ONE STEP CLOSER." The light's confused me more "BUT I WARN YOU! STEP AS SLOW AS POSSIBLE, IF YOU WANT EVERYTHING KEEP ON DANCING TROUGH YOUR PALM!" While the light keeps on talking, everything around me includes the light slowly vanishing and while I'm at it, i noticed that im slowly have the feeling of my body that signifies I'm waking up. "EVERY QUESTION YOU HAVE ABOUT YOURSELF WILL BE ANSWERED SOON, BUT IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE NOW" The light's last word. Before i knew it i was already staring at the ceiling of my dorm from my bed.
I go out through the bed on a pretty bad mood. I spent a year trying to uncover my past but it left unsolve up until now. And here's this one mysterious dream i had which my curiosity don't wanna let go of. I want to unriddle my dream, because i think this is more than just a normal dream, just like that human like light mentioned.
Today is Tuesday, i check the time through my phone, and it's already 5 o'clock in the morning, there's still two hours before my class. Due to the dream I had earlier my mood for a stroll is there no more, after this i'll just relax my mind and do what I should do today.
------------------------------------------
RAVEN'S Morning starts from writting a diary even it's unusual for himself to start his day over it. But he only did so once he got concern in regards his dream or he found something wrong about it. Right after, he apply the meditation that he learn from himself, to not let the time go wasted. Then left 30 minutes before the class start.
Arrived before the class all of his classmates are already around. He make his appearance a little messy to decrease the attention he unintentionally accumulate. Right after he sit, the most beautiful girl in the class (AKA) the most beautiful girl in the school (AKA) class president approach him. His instinct sense something unpleasant so he immediately set his guard up.
"So your the compass boy!" Raven felt unpleased even it's a compliment. "I watched your audition, it's impressive that theirs a person who can predict the calamity" ("one after another") Raven thought to himself while trying to suppress his aggravation. "Good morning to you too ms. Class President" humorous greetings made the president giggle. ("she's a liar") Raven has a lot of questions that he wants to ask to make their chat lost its derection.
Her name is Miles Enrique, her father is a senator, she's the third daughter from the Enrique family and she's the niece of the school's Principal
"sorry, how rude of me!" her approach only made her intentions apparent. Raven agitated towards her action but can't do anything cause he knows he'll only make he's reputation go frail, "mind if i ask?" before she finished her words, Raven already knew what's she gonna ask "how did you--" before she can finish her sentence, the sudden announcement interpose Their conversation
"RAVEN RENASTE GO TO THE PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE IMMEDIATELY" Raven act right away "Sorry Ms. President, i have a call that needs my immediate response" and then flee fast to hide his desire to neglect her. "Thank goodness something came up it really saved me!" he talks to himself whilst approaching the principal's office. When he came in, the principal was not yet around, but he didn't wait standing instead he occupy the bench in front of the principal's desk. While sitting he suddenly felt uneasy, he feels like a grim reaper is about to execute him, the feeling he had all of the sudden gives him pressure that multiply the weight of his body a lot of times. He feels like he's being pounded over and over and over, a cold sweat dripping out his body and while at it, he looks around imposing the feels he had and forcefully repose and mouse while looking around.
"Eeeeeehhh her room is so nice and clean" tuning his voice like a innocent, rural benighted Child. "No wonder why she's the principal, with the management calibre like her's and a relaxing environment like this there's no way a student could possibly dislikes being around here" rude compliment is his choice of words as he prejudge the room. After while, he finished observing the principal's room where he was inside, he saw nothing wrong, which made everything more shady, the frame all around the room's wall is creepily beautiful and the wall's design art looks like a holy symbol from a cult, it looks beautiful too, but Raven dont wanna know if the design from the wall has origin. Aside from the wall everything looks normal, the room looks young and ordinary, the furniture's design and position are fantastic, the items and decorations that the principal chooses herself are so young yet so professional ("a perfect trap for unsuspecting mouse") he thought to himself. A very hypnotic environment, what's worse is that the more you aware about the place the more weight it gives you. But it's not the place that gives him uneasy feeling it was something else, now Raven unwind gradually as he starting to understand his situation were he was in.
"i see so thats how it is" he thought to himself while looking on the ground analyzing the situation. The door from the room suddenly opened by someone but Raven already sense her so his not surprised
"good morning mr. Renaste! Did I make you wait long?" an obviously dry sentence that purpose only to start a conversation, nothing else "no ma'am don't worry about it ('yes you did thank you for wasting my time')" innocent like response, knowing what he just put himself inside stressing him so much. Being aware what's happening to him right now irritates him like no other, whatever the true intentions why he's been called for wont whisper even until he gets out. Raven want's to have a good talk to the principal about it but he already knows what's the risk.
