Dreams

Last night
I couldnt sleep after using the computer
I guess it must be the long duration of sitting on the chair
Makes the neck, eyes, brain and all sorts of muscles strained
The computer is evil...

So I just tossed and turned on my bed
Thinking how to go to sleep
I just got the urge to make a phone call
But I don't know to who
Or don't have any particular number in mind
But the urge was very strong
And it didnt go away till a while

I carried on to toss and turn
Forcing the urge to the back of the mind
Took me quite a while to finally get to sleep

So I was in lalaland
Then I started to dream
The dream was short
But it was vivid clear
And it had colours this time
I could see the surroundings and recognized the person

Experts say dreams can reveal how a person is feeling
Be it the mental state or the physical health
As the dreams are often related to whatever that happened to the person

So the dream goes like this
It's a short but vivid one....

.

.

I was standing in the centre of a grand shopping mall
Why was it the centre?
Becuz obviously there was a circle in the middle
And the building was built in a circular structure
Sort of like Holiday Inn (which I went recently)
But it was way grand-er
And there were lifts and escalators around
It looked like a 5-star hotel
Except that there were shops around on every level
And there were those Bugis-like pushcarts stalls
Just like in Parco or at Iluma
The entire interior had the black and gold colour scheme

So that was the setting
And I was wearing a tuxedo
The coat was not buttoned
And I had a pure white shirt underneath it
I was carrying something inside the tuxedo
I can feel the weight
But at that point of time
I didnt know what I had on me

So I have mentioned myself
And then I looked around the surrounding
From the top level to the ground floor of where I was
Then I noticed the pushcart stalls
One of them was very outstanding
It was selling those high-end watches like Breitling & Longines
Very eye-catching
And the stall just emit glittering shine due to the diamonds
But among all the diamond glare
I noticed even more so, the salesgirl who was attending the stall
The girl was Ms PZY
(Luckily I think she doesnt read my blog)

The 1st time I saw her
I immediately recognized her
She looked the exact same as I know her
With her hair tied up
Big friendly smile and a 巴掌脸
But I knew then she didnt recognize me at all
She just flashed me a smile
And I returned a smile back

And the next thing I knew
The setting changed
It was night time in the jungle
I was beside this huge ruined wall
Or should I say I was on top of this wall
Ok that doesnt matter
I had a Longines watch on my wrist magically

Then came a lot of shouting
Soldiers appeared on one side of the wall
They were chasing after me
And they were dressed in dark green uniforms
With red belts and those recruit jockey caps
They looked like ang-mohs or mixed races

I was sweating profusely
And my hair was messy
My face was oily and had black print marks
I suddenly see what was inside my tuxedo
I had a hand gun
Cuz I can pictured it
My coat was open and the slanted angle gave view to a handgun
That view was the one that made me pictured myself clearly
My white shirt was still white miraculously
But it was crumbled badly
I was asking some ppl to hurry up

And then on the other side of the wall appeared more soldiers
They were Japanese
They shouted in Japanese and in angry tones
I was speaking English to them
And then I finally knew what me and the Jap soldiers were doing...

I got 2 Jap soldiers to push a MISSILE up the wall
T-W-O
(well I guess I helped to push a bit?)
And on the other side was F-O-U-R soldiers
And many more were coming to aid us
It was a very tense situation

Then suddenly I could see the centre of the missile
It was transparent and emit a red glow
And within it flowed some sort of fluid mixed with sand
This mixture was....uranium
And the missile was the only refined one of its kind
And I had just stolen it out of the ang-moh camp
It was the greatest weapon of its kind
And there was only one
The rest were just prototypes which wasn't refined
It was a big cover-up by the ang-mohs
And I had just doubled-crossed them

I looked back at the side whereby the ang-moh is chasing me
While Jap soldiers carried on to ship the missile across
Somehow they took quite a while
And 2 ang-moh soldiers caught up
They were trying to hold back the 2 Jap soldiers on their side

As they struggled...
I saw the missile was already more than slanted towards the other side already
It was now or never
And I cannot fail the mission
So I took out my hand gun and shot the 2 ang-moh soldiers dead
2 shots - 2 kills
The missile then successfully spilled over to the other side
And the F-O-U-R Jap soldiers just found some handle
And they carried the whole damn missile
And proceed to jog back to their base
(Very fit it seemed!)

The rest of the ang-moh soldiers were catching up
But the 2 Jap soldiers on their sides still hasnt managed to clear the wall
They jumped like some shorty
And couldnt reach the ledge
So I proceeded....to just shoot and kill them!
It took me a deep breath to do it
And more beads of perspiration rolled down my forehead

The ang-mohs now had gangs of ppl in tuxedo too
Among all the dark-green uniform soldiers
These ppl in tuxedo were wearing sunglasses
(Like WTF at night in the jungle)
They got wired at their ears and they send for reinforcement
Then I took a leap of faith as I felt my face being scanned electronically
I knew my face was being uploaded onto their database already
The only thing I did next was....run

So I ran past the Jap war factory
And soon I found myself at the centre of the shopping mall again
I stood in the circle
Looking so 狼狈
The handgun was hidden again
And this time I saw Ms PZY again
She looked...nervous
And I got a feeling I had to run from her

So I just ran away from the atrium of the shopping mall
And found that actually the shopping mall extended
It was sort of like Causeway Point
And I saw a black door with a frame surrounding it
The door was my escape route
I just knew it
And I had to reach it somehow
But it was only available at the upper most storey

My eyes traced the left side of the door
And there was this walkway
A walkway with transparent railings
And to get to the walkway was a damn freaking long escalator
This escalator was like those sort you see at the loading bays
In shopping centres at the carparks and such
It was so looooonnnng like the one at Iluma
And there was a sign pointing diagonally towards the door
So I just ran towards the start of the escalator

Before the escalator
There was this 90 degrees bend
It was a sort of wall
Those like the ones before you proceed into the toilet
The walls were all yellowish-beach-sand colour
And I ran towards the 90 degrees bend wall
But as I reached the 90 degrees bend wall just before the escalator
I stopped behind the wall and hid there
My instincts were kicking in in over-drive
Knowing that the moment I stepped onto the escalator
I would be shot dead by a sniper somewhere
Cuz the damn escalator is just too freaking long
And there was THE ONLY exit outta there

I was panting
But yet I expected someone to catch up
Guess who caught up?

Yes you got it!
Ms PZY came running
I heard her footsteps
It was heels she was wearing
And she was dressed in white shirt with black pants
She was carrying a hand gun too
Like me
She was an Agent too!

So as she turned the corner
She didnt realised I was beside the wall
She was holding her hand gun in a 2-hands upright position
She didnt took aim
But as she turned and realised I was at the corner
She didnt have time
Cuz I already had her locked in my sights

I pulled the trigger
One shot - no direct kill
Cuz I shot her in the abdomen
It was a perfect shot
Cuz the moment it hit her
Her handgun dropped to the ground
Her eyes opened wide-big
And she slumped to the floor
I could see a small round hole across her white shirt
And it was red

I rushed towards her
Caught her in my arms before she fell to the ground
As I held her closely in my arms
I looked into her eyes and talked to her softly

Agent J: "对不起..." (sobbing)
Agent PZY: *unable to speak*
Agent J: "你知道我多么喜欢你吗...?" (still sobbing)
Agent PZY: *surprised look*
Agent J: "我每天会经过你的店, 默默地偷看你..."
Agent PZY: "可是....我肯本都不认识你啊..." *speaks weakly*
Agent J: "没关系, 因为我真的真的好喜欢你..."

And such
Before the conversation carried on
I looked at her body
And saw the red hole
It was black in the centre
And as I looked back up her face
I wanted to have a good look at her pretty face
But fate decided...
Her eyes were already closed
And I was about to screamed out in agony before....

Before the damn alarm sounded....
%$#!@#*&^
