Tales of an Afternoon Nap — the story - Part 1/2

So there I was, having this really cool nap, probably cause I was feeling bummed about something I can’t even remember. Dream me was all wrapped up with this unknown lady, Lady Mysterio! as I shall name her because who in the world was she? Waking up felt like being showered in confetti of joy, and boy, I was itching to get her details down, make her immortal through my pen and paints.

The director of my dreamland didn’t provide any backstory as usual. But in the opening scene, it’s me and her, working buddies and having a blast! We were this duo of delightful banter and playful sarcasm, painting our mornings in vibrant conversations.

Then cut to scene two! we were heading out after a long day at work, and she says, “How about joining me for a protest?”, my dream director didn't specify the cause, but it was a left-wing protest.

Oh, but the snapshot of her that day is vivid! Her top was an ivory white double flared short sleeve blouse, and a Light Peach culottes. her dark blonde hair, a wavy bob with bangs. I really can't pen down her face, but her smile - it was like watching the first light of dawn!. I recall telling her, "Your smile freezes time and blinds eyes! It makes hearts miss a beat; it’s a total life hazard!".

Zoom back to scene two, we hit the demonstration, shouted till our lungs gave out, encountered some right-wing roughness, but hey, what's a demo without some drama? After playing our part, we zoomed back home. The quirky script of Dreamland suggested we were neighbors - how convenient! I suggested, “The night is young, why end it now?

“What do you suggest?” She inquired with a playful lift of her eyebrow.

"There’s an awesome beer garden not too far from here. How about it?"

Her eye sparkled, her smile lights up, “Lead the way!” She said. Playfully, I snagged her arm, leading the parade. But soon, our fingers entwined, weaving our way together towards our destination.

Now, let’s jump to scene three, my lovely audience! Imagine, if you will, this enchanting beer garden. Rested atop a hill, it’s a quirky, three-tiered garden with alfresco seating at every layer! And oh, the twinkling fairy lights bathing the whole place, sprinkling a dash of magic and whimsy everywhere. The place was buzzing, a brew of laughter and chatter, and the tunes, they’d sneak into your soul and make your lips curl into an euphoric grin.

So we entered, it felt like the camera was following us from above, and everything went silent and blurred, focusing only on us as we moved up to the third level to find a nice, secluded spot. once we sat down everything comes back, all the chatter the music, the people, and their laughs. the dream ends with us sitting in front of each other, holding hands and talking till the first rays of sun shine on us.
