My girlfriend and I had a serious argument the previous night which extended till that morning. She was angry that I wouldn't accept my fault and apologize duly.
On the other hand I was angry that she wouldn't understand things from my own perspective and brought up irrelevant excuses to avoid my detailed explanation.
I had decided not to talk to her till she realizes her wrong. Although I didn't like the misunderstanding between us, I felt like talking to her I just wanted her to talk to me first so that it won't look as if I'm the first to give up.
I wasn't myself through out that day while I was in the office, So many thoughts ran through my mind and I was a bit scared at the time.
"What if she doesn't prepare any food for me before I get home? That means I'll sleep hungry tonight. I have to do something about this" I thought to myself.
I discussed the issue Nancy and I had earlier that day with Max.
Max is my closet friend, we talk about almost everything. He noticed my mood and inquired to know what bothered me. We discussed about it in the office and he advised me to settle whatever misunderstanding we had amicably.
I stayed in the office till 7:30p.m. which wasn't the usual closing time. Normally, I would leave the office around 6:30p.m and arrive home by 7:00.
I was hungry and tired and was still thinking about the issue we had that morning. I drove slowly home feeling sad. When I got home, it was a late. I didn't see Nancy but I could perceive the aroma of a delicious delicacy.
Nancy had prepared something delicious and dished out mine which she kept in a flask on the dining table. The food was still warm and I was ready to eat whatever it was. I landed my briefcase and my suit on the couch and headed straight to the dining room. Just then I heard Nancy call out my name. She sounded quite okay as if nothing had happened. Although I wasn't expecting to meet her in a jovial mood, so I smiled briefly. But then, I was eager to eat quickly, as I sat down and was about to start eating, Nancy whispered "I thought you won't come back today, you made me worried". I'm sorry I had a lot to do at the office today." I replied her in a low tone.
As I was about to take my first bite, I heard someone screaming my name loudly, "Jerry! Jerry! Jerry!!..." I woke up immediately. It was my mum calling me to get ready for lectures. I had overslept.
"So, it was just a dream?" I asked myself. I hissed and leapt into the bathroom to have a quick bath and get ready for school.
