I often dream a lot in my sleep and at any moment in time. There was not once I don't remember dreaming for a prolonged period of time but when my brain gets active, probably from all the daily work and routine, I would usually dream at night.

Last night, I wasn't feeling so well as my body was starting to take a toll on me for not resting well. You can't blame me, Yuna moved into my house and I was enjoying spending time with her. We started our own cooking ventures, house decoration and many other things to a point that the fun just blinded me that my body needed rest. A good 2 days would do. So I came down with a fever last night that caused my body temperature to rise and drop till I didn't know what air con temperature to set. I was coughing, having a sore throat and flu kicked in, it was nasty.

Probably from all the tossing and turning, I finally fell asleep with my brain still very active. I started dreaming...

Everything took place in the storeroom next to my kitchen. My house is only single storey, but in my dream, it was double. I was in the kitchen cooking some dishes, probably from my love for cooking recently, this was part of the dream. I didn't know what dish I was cooking but I knew I had guests in the living room. My guests decided to stay the night so they all got cozy and slept in the living room and of course, Yuna had her own room.

After cooking, I walked into the storeroom next to me and suddenly, an NPC(Non-Player Character) Popped up next to me and asked me if I would like to play a game. I answered, 'No' but to no avail, the NPC forcefully briefed me about the game mechanics.

He mentioned that zombies were about to invade my house, so I needed to prepare for the apocalypse. I needed to wake my friends up and start piling up rations and first aid. I hurriedly rushed to the living room to see what I could scavenge. Yuna woke up and was asking me wat's the matter. I told her everything and suddenly, the 'tutorial' round started. The NPC sent one lady zombie through the window of my second storey storeroom and I needed to bash her with my baseball bat which was lying on the sofa. I whacked the lady zombie and because of all the ruckus, my friends all woke up.

I didn't know what happened to them after that. All I knew was that they were all panicking while Yuna and I had a collapsible wooden ladder to climb from the second storey to the ground floor to escape. While everyone else was doing whatever they were doing, Yuna and I opened the ladder and we started climbing down through the storeroom's window where the lady zombie first came in.

As we landed at the bottom, we were met with my neighbors who so happen wanted to find a parking spot and they parked right into my garage without asking me. I was furious but when they left their car, Yuna and I took it and drove off.

The dream suddenly cut to her and me at a mall that we quite frequently visited. We were holding hands, talking about life, we were both happy and the dream ended.

I woke up with a heavy head and the thought of needing to find reality again.

I wish dreams like this do come true.
