Indeed, I then woke up again. The move did not cause the storm of negativity that arose the first time.
On the night of November 7th, I dreamed of a bloody ball with arms and legs. Its huge mouth was wide open, and I clearly saw sharp long teeth. Even in a dream I was able to defeat him, which gave me confidence in reality. The creature was quite large, so I realized that I couldn’t get by with an ordinary pistol. Throwing the rifle over my shoulder, I moved towards the kitchen. Today will be more or less calm.
I didn’t really feel like eating, so I made myself three sausage sandwiches and tea and had breakfast in ten minutes. I used to like to sit for half an hour, sipping tea or coffee until the drink cooled. I decided to revive the memory and poured some more hot liquid into my mug. And, obeying an incomprehensible desire, he went to the bathroom, took a terry robe, pulled it over his body and sat down on a stool in a lordly pose.
It lifted my spirits. From the outside it looked really funny — a muscular, thoughtful man with bare feet sitting in a pink terry robe and looking out the window, sipping tea. But, in fact, there was no one to evaluate it. So, after washing the dishes, I hung my luxury item back in the bathroom and stood in the shower stall. Usually I doused myself with cold water to wake up, but today I just wanted to continue the tradition, although I haven’t been sleepy for a long time. Of course, I understood that it was unsafe to remain without a weapon even for a short period of time, but I didn’t want to just sit and shake with fear, waiting for a monster, like the first time!
I realized a long time ago that it’s better not to be afraid of them. That they can be killed.
Thoughts like these only lifted my spirits. I was truly amazed at the charm of today. I woke up in a great mood, I only have to face one monster, isn’t that good?
Wrapped in a towel, I opened the door to the bathroom and at the same moment flew against the wall, thrown back by the creature. The rifle lay a meter away from me. I jumped to my feet, but the monster pinned me to the surface. Then I kicked him hard, he loosened his grip slightly, which allowed me to reach the weapon. I quickly took the safety off and fired. The first time nothing happened, I was even afraid that the bullets had no effect on the monster, but the second shot knocked the creature down and it fell to the floor with a guttural roar. A moment later it disappeared.
Satisfied with my victory, I stood up. Fortunately, the animal was not slimy, otherwise it would have had to be washed again. I got dressed and left the bathroom with a bright smile, knowing that I was already free for today.
Breakfast was already digested, so I decided to work out. An hour later I was lying on the sofa, feeling pleasantly tired. After another half hour, I left the house for another walk. Even the weather today was not so gloomy: the sun was shining, there was no wind… Today the world gave me a day off. One could only hope that tomorrow this freedom would not be compensated by a cruel monster.
After having lunch with the soup left over from yesterday, I lay down on the sofa and turned on the TV. It was “Harry Potter”, part seven. I chuckled. They saved the world, but they were together. They supported each other, but I have no one. Although I have already come to terms with this.
After lying in front of the TV for the rest of the day and having dinner, I took a shower again and went to bed.
