The Curse Of Cain - Episode 4

 

“She’s awake!!”

The girls chorused as Sonia opened her eyes.

“Get your lazy butt up, silly. It’s past morning.”

Sonia grimaced as Pacuto threw one of the pillows to her face.

“Look, we have been waiting for you since morning, get up and go take your bathe right now.”

“What time is it?” Sonia asked, squinting her eyes.

“It’s almost 12 Sonia!”  Mandy replied. “Look, we won’t meet the discount if we you do not hurry up!”

Sonia groaned and raised her head up a little bit . Her memory was a bit hazy.

“What are you girls talking about? Where are we going?”

The two ladies exchanged glances and stared at her in horror.

“We are going shopping for your engagement party!” Pacuto screamed excitedly.

‘Oh! Of course, that’s true!” Sonai replied quickly with a hint of excitement.

She finally stood up and looking down at the engagement ring in her hand. she couldn’t hide her fear…

“Oh God! How did I even end up saying Yes?”

The girls exchanged glances again.

“Babe are you okay?” Pacuto asked, wondering what took part of her friend’s brain out. The three have been best friends for many years but she was the one that acted like the mother of the two

. While Pacuto was fair and taller than the three, the other two were dark and of average height.

Sonia sighed and climbed out of the bed, still staring at the beautiful diamond on her finger.

“Don’t get me wrong girls, it’s just, my God! I’m engaged!” She shouted again as if she was just finding out.

“Urm…were you sleeping the whole time when he popped the question and you said yes?” Mandy asked, trying to sound sarcastic.

“Look guys, you don’t understand.” Sonia started, unable to even understand herself. “ I have been having this strange dream ever since I said yes.”

“A strange dream?” The girls asked same time.

“Spill it!” Mandy ordered, packing her head into a pony tail. The two were now standing akimbo while Sonia was in between.

Sonia sighed again.

“It is this hot guy that I keep seeing in my dreams….”

The girls laughed at the same time.

“Look, girls, its not funny, he was dangerous and so hot that….”

"Did he hurt you?" Mandy asked, looking all concerned.

"No.." Sonia replied and wanted to continue...

"Oh my God, did he shoot you?" Mandy asked again.

"No Mandy, don't be silly!" Sonia shouted, looking frustrated. " He..he...we kissed...." She said in a whisper, biting her lips.

The other two rolled their eyes.

"Some hot guy kissed you in your dream and you totally forgot that you were engaged?" Mandy asked again,

Sonai sighed, looking guilty. "I felt like i cheated you know but in the dream, it felt so right and...so..so good...

 but now it feels so wrong ..I'm not a cheat."

“Look babe.” Pacuto said, placing a hand on her shoulders to calm her down.

. “You just got engaged, it’s normal for you to start having a cold feet, some random hot guy can pop into your dream , it’s a normal thing. Once our boo comes back from his trip, you will forget the hot guy. Okay. Now dress up. I don’t have much time!”
 Sonia sighed again as Pacuto threw her the towel…she really wished Pacuto was right.

Some minutes later she was in the bathroom, taking a shower while still thinking about her dreams. She used to have this dream while she was quite younger and they later went away as she clocked 18 and now that she was engaged at 23, they have become so consistent especially ever since she said yes to her fiancé.

She leaned her head against the bath tub as she lay to make herself more comfortable in the soapy water.

He was really so hot and each time she finds him in her dream, they were always connected somehow…this time, she was in a garden with her friends and her fiance... everyone was happy and everything was in a slow motion…all of a sudden everyone just disappeared and the sun just turned darker….the next thing she saw was this suited white man, he was backing her and somehow, she was drawn to him…she was confused to why everyone just disappeared but seeing him there seemed to lift those worries away..as he turned around to look at her….the white flower that was tucked in her hair immediately became so red..strange but beautiful… and the next thing she knew was, he was kissing her and she was kissing him back and….

“Are you giving birth in the bathroom Sonia!”

Pacuto’s screams snapped her out of those terrible thoughts and she opened her eyes.

“I will be right out. Chill !” She shouted back. Gosh!  She grimaced and finally stood up to finish up. She was going to keep the man out of her mind and out of her head for good. God help her.
