My worst nightmare is that my school is attacked by terrorists - but time freezes a few seconds into the attack and I'm left wondering around the school with frozen images of my friends being held at gunpoint or running for cover. Then, I see my best friend with a gun to her head. I try to pull the gun away, but it's frozen and locked in place so I'm left looking at her helpless. Then, I hear the sound of an old telephone (for some reason that sound of an old telephone ringing terrifies me down to my core) and motion is slowly introduced into the scene. My best friend notices me as the scene unfolds in slow motion and she looks at me like its my fault and she will never be able to forgive me. The scene begins to speed up so it's approaching real-time and the phone stops ringing. There is a loud gun shot as everything goes instantly black and I wake up drenched in sweat breathing heavily.
This has happened a few times lately and everytime I speak to her after the dream I truly appreciate how lucky I am to have her.
