Nightmare

FLOURISH POV

Immediately I and Richard were done getting ready for my rehearsal,we left for church. On getting there,I checked my wristwatch and noticed that I was not late, heaving a sigh of relief,I entered the church and saw some of the choirs sitting down and chatting with each other,I greeted and they all responded to my greeting, not in the mood to talk I decided to while away time by playing games on my phone. Few minutes later it was already time for rehearsal. Although it was not all of us that were present there,we still decided to move on with the rehearsal but before we could start the rehearsal,our choir master led us in prayer, asking God to be with us during the rehearsal. After praying,our choir master then asked us if any of us had any song for our choir ministration,two people raised their hands indicating that they had songs,our choir master then asked them to sing the song they had,after listening to the song we all decided to choose the two song for the choir ministration,after practicing the song for a few hours and knowing that we could sing the song off hand,we were all dismissed from the church. After packing my books,I decided to leave, as I was about to exit from the church,I remembered that Richard followed me, turning back,I started looking for Richard,it was then I saw Richard in a corner in the church sleeping. After getting close to him,I could not help but shake my head looking at him sleeping like a log of wood,he did not even know that I was beside him, looking at him closely I noticed a tear drop escaping his eyes with a frown on his face,followed by a sad look, noticing that he was having a bad dream,I decided to wake him up,after a minute of shaking him to wake up,he finally opened his eyes, immediately he saw me,he wiped his tears and asked if I was done with the rehearsal,I nodded my head in respond, indicating that I was done with the rehearsal,he then stood up and walked ahead of me to the car, looking at his backside,I felt like asking him a lot of question but decided against it. Entering the car,the driver drove us back home.

On reaching home,Richard opened the car door and rushed into the house making me wonder what was going on with him,I entered the house then went straight to my room to change my clothes and get ready for dinner after all we came back late. After getting ready for dinner I came down to the dinning room,on getting there I saw Richard sitting waiting for the food to come. Few minutes later the maid came with the food and started dishing it out,while I was eating I was stealing side glances at Richard wondering what was going on with him. Tired of peeking at him,I decided to ask him what was wrong with him,he replied me with just a word "nothing", he sounded cold when he replied me which sent a shiver down my spine,I decided not to ask him anything and continued eating my food.

Richard POV

I felt guilty for replying her in a cold manner but decided not to apologise,after eating I went to my room,fell on the bed and decided to sleep but before sleeping o decided to do a short prayer, after praying,I laid down on the bed and tried not to remember the nightmare I had while I was in church. minutes later I was already sleeping and was having a night mare,in the dream I saw the smiling face of my sister and my parent while watching a movie and suddenly the scene I was seeing changed to where my parent and sis were killed and I saw the murderer looking at me and smiling,while telling me that I was useless then the murderer suddenly killed me but before I could be killed I met myself again in front of a familiar building, looking at one of the window of the building,I saw a figure,wanting to see the figure, my body started floating towards the window and there I saw an elderly woman, looking at the woman closely I noticed it was my granny,she was looking lost,tears were streaming down her face and the scene changes,I saw my granny taking a knife that was under her bed, looking at her holding the knife,I started getting scared,I was trying to divert her attention from the knife but there was nothing I could do and before I knew it,she stabbed herself with the knife,I screamed in ecstasy,after stabbing herself our eyes met each other,she smiled and died,that moment I felt my world crumbling down,there was no hope for me anymore,then I woke up from my dream. Waking up from that horrible dream,beads of sweat were falling down my face and body,realizing that it was a dream,I felt relieved and did a short prayer against the dream.i decided to look at the time looking at the time I noticed it was five,so I decided to get ready for church after all it was morning already. After brushing my teeth, taking my bath,I decided to dress in an office like manner by putting on a suit and tie,then brushing my already trimmed hair,after looking at myself in the mirror and knowing that I was good to go,I went down stairs to the sitting room, looking at my wristwatch I noticed it was already five minutes after six,few minutes later,I saw flourish coming towards me with a white gown and a blue scarf was tied to her head, looking at her,I could not help but get astonished at her beauty,she looked just like an angel that's if have ever seen one but I bet they are beautiful. after admiring her for a while I greeted her which she replied,since flourish father didn't come home yesterday we decided to go to church without him. We got to church around seven which was when workers meeting do start,we sat down for workers meeting, although I was not a worker there but I decided to listen to everything they had to say,I saw other choir members putting on the same white gown as flourish but none of them were as beautiful as flourish.After the meeting,they prayed and it was then I noticed that other members of the church had started arriving. few minutes later the Sunday School teacher started lecturing us,I listened as people threw question at her and she was answering the question, although there were some that she found it hard to answer but not everyone noticed that,later the whole congregation started arguing on the topic that was being taught by the teacher,while all this were happening I was just sitting quietly while watching flourish who was also quiet during the commotion.
