my old classmates and i are lined up inside church right before we’re released for the christmas holiday. as i walk through the entry hall and towards the big doors, i’m stopped by a maid who gifts me a shiny apple, in leu of the christmas spirit and all. i make my way home with my mom on foot, despite the fact that our house is over 10 miles away. we stop at a large house that looks more like a barn than a house, but i insist that it’s my friend mia’s. my mom and i rest beneath a large tree on the property and talk about moving up north, where it’s actually cold during the winter. after our rest stop, we continue our walk home and proceed to take a short detour down pierside drive. this turns out to be a bad idea, however, when i’m stopped by two twenty-something year olds in a trashy looking car. theyre catcalling obnoxiously but the dude in the driver’s seat has a gun pointed at me, the barrel of it laid atop the door, where one might rest their elbow with the window rolled down. i shoot my mom a pleading look and she looks as frantic as i do. the dream ends before anything happens.
