Wolf from the Paint

Chapter 2

One of the customers secretly called the police on our behalf, as it is getting out of control.

"Ooh s**t! Who the f**k called the police?" He utter to no response, as we all just stare at them. They seem to be scared, maybe they must have had lots of records. They tried to run away when they heard the sound of the siren but it was too late for that and soon a wave of relief swept through me

"Your under arrest for violating the rules" said the police putting on the handcuffs on them and dragging them out

"You won't get away with this, I promise you" he grins while the police men drag them out to the station. I gently help my mum up and dust her body and she only smiled at me

"Thank you everyone, we really appreciate it. 'sorry to say but we are closed for today" my mum utter

"Are you okay mum" I utter worriedly

"Yeah am fine, let's go home" she finalized and we closed and dashed home.

"Good night mum" I said calmly and walked into my room exhausted. I freshened up and put on my nighties, laid on my bed and dozed off.

I found myself in a Garden with beautiful sets of flowers. I believe it belongs to a special person and I could see and feel my feets crept through the flowers.

There is a melancholy on the wave of the sea while the wind blows caressing so amusingly and fragrance of flowers in bloom.

As I watch the sky for its rainbow's loom and I think about things I would rather not do. " Am I in heaven!? " I quietly murmured to myself.

I felt so excited and soon a voice from nowhere came from the flowers "I like you a lot… I truly liked you a lot " I quickly glanced around nervously to observe the rose's.

The flowers are so beautiful " but how could they speak? " I wonder around the surface " Do I answer? Do I dare ? "Of course I wouldn't dare. I gently tapped the flowers in front of me and they began to die as I touched them. I looked around, there were some flowers that had fallen on the ground in front of me and I traced them from my feet backward, behind me to see where I had stepped my feet on. They are all dead and dried up, soon all the beautiful flowers began to perish away, till they all perished_ I began to run towards the sea, but before I could approach the sea, I found myself breathing heavily and endlessly.

" Was that a dream ? " I tapped my forehead and discovered I'm sweating. " What kind of dream was that? Flowers liking me and perishing away ? " I never had such a weird dream before, but why now? It's really not good. God! " A gasp escaped my lips and a sense of relief washed over me as it was just a dream. It could only mean something bad might happen afterward.

I laid back on my bed, couldn't sleep back because of the anxiety that took over me. I only wish it should just be a dream that won't cause any harm or bad luck to my family. I slowly shot my eyes as the night was still young.

I gently opened my eyes to the morning breeze that puffed the hair on my face, I jack fully awake taking a quick glance at the alarm that says 6am and glimpsed at the window that seemed opened overnight whilst the curtain flapped against the wall.

I sat up on my sofa for a while before stepping gentle on the cold tiles and creeped leglessly to the bathroom slapping the door behind my back, I stood by the brushing tube staring at the mirror in front of me, I grabbed my brush and queze a paste on it and deeped it into my mouth and scrub gently while the vision of what I saw in the dream keep flashing right before my eyes. I quickly spitting out the thick mucus from my mouth and raised my mouth on the running tap, I quickly off my gown and switch on the shower, as warm water flush down my skin, I wash off the dirt off my body and quickly grab my towel and wrap it loosely on my chest and dashed out of the bathing room. I dressed up in my pajamas and tied up my wine hair with rope in the middle, not minding having breakfast. Dashing out of the sitting room, I bumped into something and I raised my eyebrows to see what it was.

" Mum! " I utter in surprise, my eyes wide open along with my mouth

" Annie_ where are you rushing to at this early hour ? " She look puzzle and I smiled over it

" Uhm Mum_ just wanna get some fresh air, that's all. I'm tired of sitting at home all day and night on our free days " I looked away trying to flee

" Be back home early Annie " she utter a bit audible so I could hear her clear and clean

" I will Mum, I love you " I blew her some kisses from a few distance and walked away. Putting on my headphones wasn't stressful and I played some instrumental beats which I listened to and enjoyed. A lot of people will stare at me and shake their head, I'm used to such reactions. I turn off my music when I get fed up with it, trying to walk back home. Someone strange suddenly passed me by and he looks different from us; his hair is somehow rough and his outfit looks weird. I gently turn my view at him and our eyes clash which I did as if he is not the one I am staring at. I pretended to be blind so he wouldn't think otherwise and began to use my hand to search for where to grab. A lady held my hand and asked me where my destination was and I told her. She stopped a taxi for me and gave the taxi my address to drop me off. I kept pretending while observing the strange weird guy as he walked away while the taxi driver told me to get in so he could take me to my destination.

"Get that witch before she escaped" a street gang utter and I glanced at him to see who it was. s**t, it's Mr. Trouble from the other day. I banged the car door, causing one of the guys to hit his head on the car.

"Drive the car" I shouted at the driver and he seemed lost in the scenario.

"What" he muttered, throwing me a puzzle look.

"Drive the f*****g car, asshole!" I bellowed and the driver drove us away. I got lucky out of their grip.

"How did they get out so easily?" I murmur to myself in shock

"Why were those thugs after you?" The driver question and sight me from the front mirror

"I had no idea" I respond, breathing heavily

"Thank you and sorry for what happened earlier on, please forgive me" I said to the driver calmly.

"I understand, people tend to act rashly when they are in danger" said the driver

"Yeah" I breathe the word out and carefully study him as he drives me away.

I freshen up when I arrive home, help out with house chores, eat, read some poems and books and when it's night time, I laid down on my bed again and soon I felt an uncontrollable sleep bump Into my eye as if it was waiting for me to lay down. I couldn't yawn properly and shooting my eyes was like a flash and I dozed off.

I began to have the same dream but this time around, the flowers are healthy and lovely. Maybe today is a lucky day. So I decide to walk to the stream, as I observe the sky a bit and bend to take a look at the sea_ hoping to see something nice. While staring at my wine red hair from where I'm standing, I could see how beautiful it was in the dream and then I saw something besides me in the reflection of the water and I looked closely. That doesn't seem clear enough. " What could it be? A Wolf? " I mouthed the word silently and turn my view beside me, just to see a handsome guy standing next to me half naked, I scanned his body from his head that was coiled in weird haircut, down to his broad shoulder all the way to his back that looks like an arranged bricks with a pair of shorts standing bare footed, he wasn't smiling at me but I decided to smile thinking maybe he will eventually smiles back at me. I gently turned to stare back at the water just to see the wolf standing still staring at me, I rose in fear and fell into the sea hopelessly waving for a savior.
