La Nouche's Dream Journal-Chp 28


• Remember being in a roadside stall

• I was buying myself a cup noodle, which is like basically you're given a big plastic cup and they will put ready-made cooked noodles into it with different condiments to choose from to accompany the noodles

• I chose some tauge to go with it

• I remember seeing MJ in his famous top hat and red suit and black pants with his sunglasses on buying one of the cup noodles

• Then I suddenly find myself in the theatres waiting for a movie to show with Joe and the whole family

• They look like them, but at the same time they don't, and the theatre look more like those Gladiator colleseum or something

• Some kid dropped her drink on the way to find her seat and Kyran helped her pick it up, spilling it in the process, then Joe's grandma got all paranoid thinking it was Kyran who spilt it

• Then Logan wants to go touch the spilt drink on the floor but both Joe's grandma and Joe's dad stopped him harshly, and as usual he went crying to his parents

• They were premiering some weird live show stuff before the movie begins and suddenly we were requested to blindfold our eyes as a caution

• Weirdly enough, even though I'm blindfolded, I can still see, like my eyes have X-Ray vision or something

• There were weird-looking masked guys standing on top of the theatre screen and I saw only a handful decided to blindfold themselves while the rest didn't, wanting to see what's going on

• The narrator said that the masked men claimed to be able to summon rain and storm, but it turned out to be that they had the power to give out realistic illusions to make people think there's rain and storm and flood and make them go insane

• Joe was panicking, showing that he didn't put his blindfold on and I held him, assuring him the visions are not real

• Then the masked men disappeared and only a handful was left alive

• Someone claims to have endured a thousand deaths in the vision and said Joe was lucky to have me

• After that, somehow the theatre changed into a home-video system and Joe was fixing the TV to watch the movie, while Jasmine urged him to hurry up

• I remember the trailers before the movie starts was about some guy who is fixing a TV and then watching funny home videos of themselves

• Then I remember finding myself in a room packing because Joe wanted to send me home, no reason why

• I mentally reminded myself that I must quickly hide my drawings once I get home because I don't want my mom to find out about it

• We got another car from Joe's dad because Joe's other car was to be borrowed to someone

• Some of the family members tagged along and we went to the same place where I had my cup noodles

• The waiter, despite being a roadside stall, behaving like a class waiter in a posh restaurant or something, keep on recommending dishes for us

• After food and once I reached my house, my mom was not home, but we had substitute maids and servants at home, so they opened the door for me coz I don't have the keys

• I brought dirt into the house because of my shoes and I quickly swept them, crying as I went, dunno why, while the maid comforted me and offered to do the sweeping

• Then I more or less woke up

A Wish Come True (A Short Story)

I woke up with a start when I found myself in a very unfamiliar place. The bed I was lying on was grand—an English-quilting blanket and 2 soft pillows with flowery laces. The whole place was fit for a king! Suddenly the door opened and there stood my dream prince: Katsuya Kimura! I gasped in astonishment for he was actually a cartoon character. I did not know that he really exist. “Wake up, dear,” he said and pulled off the blanket and handed it to a woman who looked like the maid. “You will be late for work.” “Work?” I asked. “Yes! Work! Have you forgotten your own comic workhouse, baby dear?” Comic workhouse?! I…I have became a cartoonist? That was my wildest dreams! Being a cartoonist! I undressed and changed into my beige T-shirt and black trousers at once and hurriedly finished my breakfast. Katsuya drove me to the workhouse. My, my, was it big! I’ve never seen a bigger place than this! Katsuya kissed me and said, “See you at four, OK, baby?” I blushed scarlet. I always wan...

Hans and Hilda

Once upon a time there was an old miller who had two children who were twins. The boy-twin was named Hans, and he was very greedy. The girl-twin was named Hilda, and she was very lazy. Hans and Hilda had no mother, because she died whilst giving birth to their third sibling, named Engel, who had been sent away to live wtih the gypsies. Hans and Hilda were never allowed out of the mill, even when the miller went away to the market. One day, Hans was especially greedy and Hilda was especially lazy, and the old miller wept with anger as he locked them in the cellar, to teach them to be good. "Let us try to escape and live with the gypsies," said Hans, and Hilda agreed. While they were looking for a way out, a Big Brown Rat came out from behind the log pile. "I will help you escape and show you the way to the gypsies' campl," said the Big Brown Rat, "if you bring me all your father's grain." So Hans and Hilda waited until their father let them out, ...
