Seven Dreams

4

I suddenly woke up on the bed in the lab. I gasped for breath and tore off all kinds of medical equipment on me. I put on my clothes and ran to the next Lab. Zack happened to have just woken up too.

I asked, "Where is Philip?"

Zack said, "He probably hasn't woken up yet." He was looking down sullenly. He broke free from the medical equipment on him and stood up. He got dressed and left without saying another word to me.

The atmosphere in the lab was depressing.

I stared at the frightening white light in a daze.

I walked to another lab and found Philip lying inside. He seemed to be asleep.

Zack, Philip, and I went to the same college. We had been studying psychology together for twelve years.

Half a month ago, our research on the dream made a big breakthrough. Regardless of Zack's objection, I took part in the experiment and fell into a nested dream of seven levels hypnotized by Philip.
