Chapter 10 - Talk to a shadow

Clink... Clink... Clink...

Something very strange appeared on stage.. Something I can't imagine what it looks like.. Is that a shadow? A shadow in the middle of the darkness.. How could such a thing happen

While this band was singing and dancing, I was concentrating on this strange shadow from which a lot of magic and violet radiation was coming out.

"Where are you going?" The man who was eating popcorn like a pig asked me with a gluttony that was surprising because of my sudden standing in the middle of the party, I was making some disturbance to the spectators, especially to those sitting behind me

"There is something I have to do first before anything else.. two minutes and then come back" I told him that sentence and I had decided to go

"Okay, but don't be a little late. Who knows when that party will end. I'll reserve the seat for you when you come back.. Yo- Yo- Yo." He said in a loud voice because of the noise, then greeted me with a very stupid greeting.

"Summer time we have fun together with the colors of the spectrum..__" That band completed that song they sing

Then I quickly moved back a distance of twenty meters until I reached the exit door from the hall.. I exited and here I am now outside the hall

"I saw a strange shadow right behind the stage," I said to myself, trying to think of any solution so that I could find out who this shadow is and does it have anything to do with anything happening here? Because I have some mixed feelings about him

" These feelings are like __ "

While I was thinking of something and I was moving in the streets to find any solution I accidentally read [Staff room.. no one else is allowed in]

Looking at the location and shape of the room, it looks like a place right behind the stage. "Ha ha, and this is what I want," I said to myself a little sarcastic.

"Alright let's do this" Then I started to put my hand on the door socket and slowly lower the socket which started to make an annoying creaking sound..

In front of me appeared a room that looked like a dressing room ..

"Is there no one here?" I said as I entered the room, which was filled with many closets.

"No one is going to catch me for trespassing right?" I added as I continued my steps.

Then, without warning, the space around me turned into darkness, a pitch- black haze all around

"Where has the stage disappeared, where has that room disappeared where I was standing, and where has that man eating popcorn with a scoop disappeared?" Nobody knows.

Then a shadow began to appear from the midst of this complete darkness.. a shadow.. not like any shadow ..a shadow that you can distinguish in the darkness..it gives a strange feeling.. a very ominous feeling, as if it were some kind of curse.

"Hey." The voice emanating from that shadow strangely sounded like an old man trying to catch his breath

"Hey..?" I answered him foolishly.. because I didn't know what to tell him... I never spoke to a shadow before.

" Shouldn't you wake up now? You have a job right now." That shadow replied as if he had lost interest in what was going on here

"Did you say that I have a job?" I asked him about that, which job do I do.. A strange shadow recognizes It

"Isn't his name Michael right? That man with the big belly and the crab of money." That shadow replied with an unexpected answer at all. After this answer, I started to like this shadow a little bit, as if he knew me.. he knew the real me.

"Yeah, but what's the matter?" I asked him in a tone as if I didn't understand

"Well.. anyway you will wake up now and go to work as if nothing happened with you okay? Soon you will understand everything very soon" That shadow spoke as he gave me a slightly vague answer after he gave a heavy sigh

"Did I say I would soon understand what's going on?" I told him this question

" Just remember that your mind is able to talk to us. Your subconscious mind is the only way to communicate. Remember that .. I'll make 'the first Cadmium .' he will talk to you next time to explain to you." That shadow said and his voice began to dissipate around me.

"Did you say us? And who is this Cadmium? What is going on here?" I asked before my voice dissipated into emptiness.

"Bye." This was the last word I heard from this shadow before I felt a strange feeling

I grunted as if my opened eyes were opening again.. What is going on

[Potatoes and molasses~.. its taste is sweeter than sugar. It calms the stomach and refreshes the memory. It activates it and strengthens it. Oh, potatoes and molasses~]

....

Early in the morning at half past five

As the sun rises and shines brightly...

Sunlight enters a small room where you light it up a bit

Beep yeep yeep

The phone vibrates on one of the tables while he sings a very simple, calm and normal song.

[Potatoes and molasses~..its taste is sweeter than sugar. It calms the stomach and refreshes the memory. It activates it and strengthens it. Oh, potatoes and molasses~]

The young man asleep on the bed is woken up by the sound of the alarm clock, which resonates across the room

[Put on your glasses to see it ~ Shiny and beautiful, how sweet ~ Oh Potatoes and Molasses ~]

(stop alarm)

That young man sits on the bed, rubbing his back and his stomach in a circular motion, then starts moving towards the bathroom with the first drops of water falling from the tap, hitting his slightly tired face.

Then he pours some water on his entire head to activate all his brain cells as some cold water falls on his shiny silver hair.

Then he wipes his head with a towel, and he says to himself

" Good morning "
