Lucius had a dream, one that he hadn't seen for a very long time. He stood in a dark void, with an image in front of him, playing the life he had experienced.
It all started in the school courtyard where he and his friends played basketball after school.
Due to his tall and athletic build, Lucius was always invited to join in the games. He enjoyed those carefree moments with his friends, laughing and having fun, until it was time to go home.
"See you tomorrow," Lucius said with a smile, waving as he walked away. Once he turned the corner and saw that no one was around, a hint of anxiety and worry appeared on his face, and he started running.
He headed to the shop he always visited on the way back, a place selling various second-hand items.
