This dream gave me a scared and worried feeling, both when I woke up, and strongly inside the dream. It felt very realistic compared to the others in this series, because the dream did not break the laws of reality besides unnoticeable scene switches and a different tint until the 5 second ending. Secondly, it made dream me feel emotions as strong as it would be irl. Thirdly, the dream was in 1st person the whole time. It was also in a bad and uncomfortable situation that could happen irl, which made it scary. This dream started with me sleeping in my bed. Then I opened my eyes and I could see. That's when I woke up and sat up. It was sunrise outside. It felt exactly like if I was getting ready for school in 8th grade, which made it even more realistic. Right after I woke up, I got my phone from nowhere and looked at it. It was the lock screen and the background picture was too blurry to see. On the screen where notifications would be, instead it had 2 blue iMessage text bubbles on the right. They both said the same thing: "Come here". Then, another white bubble appeared on the left. I felt a realistic emotional shock after I read this message. This time, it said, "We got divorced!". Another white message appeared below it that said "Divorce". After that, I walked towards the living room and when I walked through my door, the whole dream turned into a darker tint, which set the worried mood. When I walked into the living room, I saw Mom standing beside the couch with two brown briefcases with stickers of random colorful shapes on both of them. When I sat on the couch, Mom just walked outside. I just sat there on the couch. It was almost daytime and there was no lights except the lamp next to the chair and there was nothing on the TV. Then I heard Dad walk in from downstairs and he came. He sat on the couch beside me. I asked him, "Where's Mom going?", and he replied, "She left us". I don't remember what happened next. After that, the scene switched. This time, I was in the passenger seat in the red truck with Dad. We said nothing through the whole scene. It started a few seconds away from the Burger King I usually pass on I-77. After passing Burger King, it turned left, even though it was never supposed to, and after the turn, there was a tall gray brick building with a red roof. In front of us was a mountain behind a right turn. After the right turn, we was on another road of a local town, on the part with the mountain on one side and the river on the other. At the end of that part, the scene switched again. This time, we was back at home. We walked towards the bathroom, and when we got there, my sister was in front of the sink looking at the mirror. She was holding a small yellow stick with a silver round top with a hole on top. It also had a silver button on the side. There was towels everywhere on the floor too, and I sat on one of them next to the left side of the sink. Dad got out the hair-cutting box from nowhere and put one of the colored things on the hair cutter and just started cutting my hair. The cutter made no sound, but when my sister pushed the button on the stick, the silver top started vibrating, and it made the hair cutter sound. Then she touched the silver part with the right side of her face and moved up, and then stopped and just held it silver-side-up again. After that, Mom appeared next to the litterbox and said "Look, she actually turned it on" in a sarcastic voice.
