A SECRET: FACELESS
03) History or illusion:

I (Ridhi) woke up in the dreaming before the same creepy gate, but it was different then before the face; Ah I mean Ost- whatever was gone. Then I saw Sindy there. (Oh, Sindy that spider Mr. Whatever gave me, remember? Yeah, that's Sindy for me)
She went other side of the gate through tiny hole, so I followed what else could I do? I stepped towards the gate, it opened itself, and I couldn't see a thing because it kinda sucked through it like a black hole or something.
I woke up in my room but Sindy was not there, in the tiny box. (I didn't find a good pet house and...the name) I was tired so I didn't care about some spider who I just got recently and from a dream; or in my case I should say 'Nightmare'. I went down to drink some water. I was grinding my eyes and slightly yawning, I walked out of my room but when I opened my eyes, there was nothing but few old town houses, and people with peculiar dressing, I was terrified and run back to my room but as I was passed the door again, It wasn't my room. I was in some kind of old house (vintage), there wasn't much but there were drawing on the walls and somethings, the smell was terrible. I told myself breathing heavily, "This is a dream. Nothing is real." But my heart calmed by that but stupid brain, it said that the spider was also in dream yet I found it in real world.
I lied down on the bed. (it wasn't a bed at all, for the record)
I tried to sleep. Just then I man came in, I tightly closed my eyes but before he could see how bad I am at acting, I relaxed my eyelids, and pretended like I was really asleep. He took some things, I could hear the sounds though he was seemed to be really careful and then sat down by my side. I was just hoping to fall asleep and get out of this prison dream. But nope, it didn't happen, he was there for a while, may be looking at me. I was thinking, why he didn't attack me or something. Did he know me? And how was that possible? He came a little closer, I could feel his breath and he kissed me on my hand (I could feel he was trembling.)
And quickly went out of the room, I mean one-room-house. Who was I to him? It was driving me crazy (Not the man! But this whole miserable situational dilemma. What should I know? What could I have done? I did what was logical (nothing was logical from past few days... Still I wanted to believe any kind of logic) so I tried to sleep again.
But it was like, I had slept for a century and just got up. And couldn't sleep anymore.
Was I stuck in dream? Forever?

....To Be Continued...
