He Haunts My Dreams
As I make contact with the mysterious white mist, I feel goosebumps. I follow it into where it came from, a steel room. The door was clearly rusty. As if the place has been abandoned for a very long time. All my senses focused only on that area. All other things and surroundings disappeared. It was cold, yet warm. An eccentric feeling I can never fail to remember. I get goosebumps as I suddenly hear voices throughout the area.
"Come in. Open the door and witness his beauty," the voices say. After hesitating and thinking for moments, I did as they said. I walk towards the door, hold the knob, and slowly turned it. The door's creaking gave even more suspense. While opening the door very slowly, I kept hesitating. Despite that, I continue. Alas! I opened it!
I see a silhouette. It has a very big figure. The room was too dark to see anything clearly. Time passes as I entered the room. And it shocked me as it made movement. A pair of wings and a tail appear! As those appeared, glowing dust was spreading across the room. The sight was mesmerising. The glowing dust spread quickly. I made contact and to my surprise, it was a gentle and warm feeling. Very similar to a mother's love and embrace. Particles gathered on my hand and formed a very beautiful butterfly. It's nothing out of the ordinary.
It piqued my interest to the point I said, "Beautiful." It flinched... perhaps it heard me. But at that moment, I wasn't concerned whether it noticed me or not. I was about to approach it. But before I could take a step, the glowing dust gathered around his wing and illuminated it with light. The once dark and cold room has now been embraced by the dust's light and warmth.
I finally took a step after admiring its beauty, but to my suprise, it flew. It was not the aggressive approach. But rather, it gently floated past me. Before it left, I saw it. A smile. I stood in awe and... I awoke.
