I woke up this morning to the same exact thing I always do. The sun in my face and my annoying alarm going off, but wait. I saw something new that I have yet to notice these past years. As I looked up, I saw a hole that looked like it was just carved. It was oddly placed in the center of the boring white colored ceiling. I was very confused.”Hmmmm” I whispered silently to myself. I quickly leaped up to my feet and I ran into my long hallway. There, I saw a mirror. For a while I just stood there, looking at myself. I looked at my short brown hair and my green eyes that started to water. I wondered why this had happened but then it came to me that I had been staring at myself without blinking once. I ran down the stairs as quickly as I could with curiosity frantically swirling in my head. I grabbed a ladder and ran back upstairs. I put the ladder up and began to climb. When I was up, I saw four walls and they each had a door. I remember the wallpaper being a light red color with dark red roses along the part that was closest to the floor. The corners of the walls were peeling so it was kind of obvious this place was pretty old. There were four doors to choose from but I only had time to choose one. I knew I would come back to this place and explore the rest of what is behind the mysterious doors. I chose the one that was straight ahead because I thought it would be the most exciting one, but I yet to realize what was happening.
I quickly woke up to my dog licking my face. Her name is Joy. She has never done this before. It was all a dream! It didn't seem like the craziest dream but it just seemed strange. I looked up at my ceiling just out of curiosity and to my surprise I saw a hole that looked exactly like the one in my dream. I was so confused and I couldn't think of what was happening. I grabbed a ladder exactly like I did in my dream. I climbed and got to the top, but there were no doors to be seen. There was no wallpaper or anything. All I could see was a beautiful red rose, I walked slowly, to try and pick it up. I here the floor underneath me cracking. The rose is suddenly right next to my feet. I bend down to pick it up and the tiles that were supporting me from underneath broke and I was falling. Falling non stop. It felt like I was flying, which has always been one of my dreams. In panic, I look around and just see blue. All of a sudden I hit the floor, and at that very moment, I woke up again. This time not at my house. But in a hospital.
Great story!!! I loved all the descriptive words you used. I caught one spelling error. At the end just change here to hear, but other than that it was amazing!!!!
ReplyDeleteGood writing--nice revision:) I'd break it up into paragraphs and maybe don't say it's a dream, just saw you woke-up in a hospital. I wouldn't reveal the dream idea until the very end of the piece. Keep up the good work!
