A cold tingling sensation engulfed me.

I knew, if I turned around, I would regret it.

But I turned anyways.

There he was, smiling menacingly at me.

I ran towards the door, but I never got to it..

Heart pounding in my ears, I open my tightly shut eyes…

Aah! It was just a dream!

Join me in enjoying blogs from fellow A to Zers… Rajlakshmi and Ruchi Singh, today! Do share some blog love with them too! :)

  1. A nightmare! It’s so strange that we can’t run in our nightmares and remain rooted to the spot, and how we fall πŸ™‚

    1. True. While in real life we may be rooted to the spot out of fear etc but it’s weird that they have that paralyzing effect in dreams too!

  2. ahaa! What a relief! This would be the first reaction, as you open your eyes from the most dreadful dream.

    Your narrative in 55 word fiction is jus awesome!

  3. Nothing beats that rush of relief when you wake up from a nasty nightmare. The other night I dreamed that I saw a bear wander into my neighbour’s house and as I was trying to figure out what to do, I realized that there were bears in almost every room of my house. Absolutely ridiculous, but I was SO relieved when I woke. πŸ™‚

  4. Ah (those types of) nightmares are the worst! When you wake up sweating with your heart racing and beating in your ears. Glad it was only a dream: what a relief for sure! πŸ˜‰ <3
