I’m working in a really weird school

Date: 11/11/2021

Somehow I work in a school which is split above and below. I’ve been working there for a bit and I teach young kids (like elementary or middle school) and the upper levels are the older kids. I go to the office on the bottom floor and am told to take something to a fellow colleague on the upper floor where there’s high school and college kids there. I go up and see people from my high school still in school. I see Sashea, Ash, Sukhman, Pinder, a random girl I think Pinder’s dating, rejean and some others. They go to class and Pinders girlfriend tells me they made a club back in the 90s in this one room and I go into the room, under this cabinet where there’s a door cut out and I see people lounging around and having a party and outside, it’s all quiet. I say “cool” and walk back out and dust myself off when I get up. I turn around and start speaking to Sashea Ash and Sukhman while I’m waiting for their professor so I can speak to him regarding some message. I turn back and see rejean, two white dudes and this black guy I used to work with. They’re all high as a kite and I look at them and tell them to get up and get to class. The black kid looks at me and gets spooked when I tell him about the future if he sticks on the path and tell him to get to class and he leaves. Then, Rejean looks at me and he’s literally falling asleep so I tell him to just sleep it off in a classroom. There’s something about the two white guys - I don’t know where I know them from but they clearly remember and know me too. The younger one, I tell him to get up and go to class and pay attention because I know he’s really smart and I know he can do this. He starts to tear up and comes over to give me a hug - but only hugging me aggressively with his top half and keeping his legs and hips far away from me. I look in his eyes and he’s wearing contacts that are a different colour than the eyes I know which are his. I hug him back, lightly patting his back and he says very loudly “I love you - you’re always looking out for me; I’ll go to class” and he turns around and goes. I take a big breath and I look back at the other white dude, he’s my age, and he’s giving me a look that says “you took away all the fun” and a stink eye. I calmly reply, “listen, I’m not trying to take your friends away from you. I’m trying to make sure you guys get up and out of school and on with your lives - I really want y’all to reach higher than the potential I think you have.” And he rolls his eyes and I say “you know what, I know you’re extremely smart. This is easy for you.” And he looks at me and somehow sobers up in a few seconds and says “you keep trying to tell everyone else what to do, clearly are invested in my life and others here. Let’s talk about you and what you’ve been up to” and somehow we’re sitting on a couch in the middle of the hallway and I sit down and he sits very close to me. I look at him as he speaks and I laugh. I wake up laughing.
