Chapter 9

After a short debate about what to watch, we decided on a romantic comedy. I wasn’t really into watching anything, but to my surprise I enjoyed it. It was nice to have something else to concentrate on besides my miserable dreams. After we discussed the movie I washed up a couple of dishes from the day and set up the coffeemaker. I tossed a blanket and some shorts to Arianna, checked the locks on all the windows and doors then headed up to bed.

I slipped into bed a little before eleven. I struggled through the movie and most of the day not to fall asleep, but of course now that I can, I’m wide awake. Sometimes a shower will relax me but tonight it rejuvenated me instead, and the fact that Dee hasn’t come home yet isn’t helping.

When Mary was talking about the gift some have to read people, it has me thinking about why that is. Arianna is so open with everyone that I think it’s hard for her to grasp the concept that most people aren’t. Me on the other hand, I have things I hide about myself and wonder if that could be why I tend to look deeper into people’s responses and reactions.

My sister, for example, puts on a front sometimes, and since I know when she wakes up in a foul mood I can study that cheerful act she plays while she’s waiting on customers. Even if I don’t know the truth I would know if she wasn’t being sincere by the way her smile ends abruptly when she turns away, how she avoids eye contact, or studies her notepad a little longer than necessary. But it's more than just the physical things that would give her away, it’s that vibe I feel when she passes by.

Mom, on the other hand, is never fake, she’s always pleasant and cheerful because unlike her children who have sandpaper backs, she’s the opposite and everything seems to slide right off hers with zero residence. I wonder if Mom is as good at sensing others emotions as I am? This is a great ability to have, but it doesn’t help solve anything, it only makes you curious.

What I need to get working on is this damn mind-reading crap. It was working in my last dream, wasn’t it? I was in his head, I heard his thoughts. I wasn’t just seeing what he saw like I normally do, I was him. What I need to do is become lucid in these dreams and since I can do anything I want, I should be able to get in their heads. Now that I have a plan, I make sure I’m open and close my eyes. As I drift off I ask myself over and over: Are you dreaming?

I’m running, I’m pumping my legs so hard that my muscles are burning and my throat is dry from gasping for air. I can’t take much more so I stop to rest and listen.
