I'm sure we've all had those dreams that are just so ridiculous. The kind that gets us chuckling when we wake up. Such dreams usually seem like a jumbled mess of nonsense, where nothing makes sense, and yet, somehow, they're still entertaining.
I've had so many of such dreams but I'd be sharing one that I can't stop thinking about.
In this dream, I was a pretty random day. Shuffling through things in my room in a bid to get things in order. Once I was done with this part, I stepped out to get a dustpan and my brother ran up to me, covered in sweat and almost breathless.
🤍: Don't go to the small parlour for any reason.
🩶: Why?
🤍: There's this man that came into the compound and is shooting everyone on site. He seems pissed but hasn't really said what he wants yet.
After I confirmed that my family members were all safe and taking cover, I went against my brother's express warning and walked directly into the small parlour to get a better view of this "shooter".
Seeing that he couldn't stop me, my brother followed me to at least try and protect me if things went sideways and things did go sideways but not in a bad way.
On reaching the parlour, I peeked through the window at the shooter and instantly burst out laughing. My brother immediately pulled me down to take cover and questioned me.
🤍: Why are you laughing? That man is already holding his next victim by the collar and you're finding this funny?
🩶: Don't you know Biggie? Isn't that Biggie?
As I asked my brother the question, he took another peek and confirmed the identity of the shooter.
🤍: So why would Biggie be on a killing spree?
That was the question I didn't wait to get an answer to. We snuck back into the house, ensured all doors were locked and reinforced and after shooting a few other people with a gun, Biggie left. Shortly after, I woke up.
Now, for context. Biggie is a huge plus sized man who introduces himself as 'Biggie'. This man is one of the kindest people I know who lives around my area and is never in anyone else's business unless he is given permission.
However, if you're up for an entertaining time, filled with world facts, be it political, economical or social, Biggie's got you covered. All you need to do is ask.
This dream initially seemed ridiculous because why would Biggie do that? But then again, one shouldn't always judge a book by its cover.
The cherry on the top of this ridiculous dream occurred during the day. I briefly stepped out to get some supplies for the house and who was the first person I saw? Biggie.
My eyeballs have never moved as fast as they did that afternoon. I did a quick check to ensure there was no gun hanging around, waiting to be used.
To reiterate, Biggie is one of us and I see him almost every time I step out of the house. However, since I had this dream, there's always this small voice in my head saying “do a quick assessment”. As if. As if my assessment could stop him if he actually had bad intentions.
