So I suddenly appear in the parking lot of my former place of study, MPHM. I m instructed to stand in line by the teachers for I can only assume a fire drill. Strangely, the language at which I was instructed in was not English; it was MALAYALAM. For those who don't know, Malayalam is my native language, which I actually knew quite well when I lived in my home country of India, but now however, I have forgotten the vast majority of the language as I now live in the US and Malayalam is really of no use. So yeah I was in middle school and I had no idea wtf anyone was saying. The students, the staff, the teachers were all speaking Malayalam. Needless to say, it was quite irritating. I really wanted to know what they were speaking of. Then, out of the corner of my eye, I spot my close friend Isaac., who was wearing sunglasses as he always does. We started walking towards to each other and we both lift our chins to say what's up bro. Eventually when he got close enough, I do the strangest thing: I engage him in a fight. This wasn't any normal fight; now that I think about it was really like a play fight. I do the same thing with my little cousin, Sanju. So yeah, I start throwing playful, soft jabs and punches at him and he raises his arms to defend. I asked him why he wasn't fighting back and he said nothing. Later, I spot some thing peculiar. In the corner of the St Vincent building, there stood a teenage black woman and as I took a closer look, I identified her as Tiara, this annoying chick I knew from elementary school. She was crying and she was holding a microphone. I wanted to help her, but I didn't know what to do and I was afraid if I got closer she might be provoked and attack me. After that, I saw her approaching a pine tree nearby she tried to climb it in vain, falling repeatedly. Then, some MPHM parishioners drive by and stop when they see her. They stare at her for a while then start throwing pity chips at her. To my surprise, she went over and accepted them like an animal. I was disgusted. One of the parishioners was holding a subway footlong and when Tiara saw it she ran and launched herself into the man. For a split second, I became the man and then I blacked out.
