The hours after midnight have always been a time of peace and clarity for Mafuyu. A calming sensation for her to relax as the world falls in deep slumber.
Luminous stars have now appeared accompanied with the veil of the night sky. The faint glows of stars have always been comforting for her to look at but none of it compares to the moon above.
The moon, its calming glow, has proven how relaxing it can be to just admire it from afar.
Now that she comfortably adjusts from her seat, she starts off by writing. Just writing everything that comes to her mind. Ever since she encountered this strange dream of her’s once she sleeps, she had the sudden urge to write her thoughts about it.
“Night”, “Stars”, “Darkness”, “Light”
“The Moon And “The Ocean”
At first, she didn’t think much of that dream but it soon piqued her interest when the same dream kept happening every night. It's as if she’s transporting herself to the same place over and over again and that itself fueled her desire to explore this dream of hers.
Once Mafuyu has finally let herself calm down and relaxed, she finally decided to sleep with anticipation of seeing this scenery again.
“Just as I thought, I’m here again alone at the center of the ocean.”
She closed her eyes and let the sound of the waves take her in and breathed calmly before exploring this dream of her’s. Usually this is just a simple dream of the same things she has seen before but somehow this dream feels different.
She opened her eyes again and there went a few rays of light that met the surface of the ocean. Knowing that it’s just her celestial companion, the moon, she decided to gaze upwards to see the moon again. But as she lifts her head up, the moon is surprisingly near the ocean as if it's pulling her. She decided to let the moon tug her in as if she’s in a trance and so she got closer and closer until she saw a mysterious figure.
A white haired lady humming a mellow tune filled with warmth and comfort. Her small figure descended upon the moon as her long hair rested on her shoulders while she began to sit comfortably on a rock still continuously humming her pleasant tune . The mysterious figure alone makes Mafuyu wonder how fascinating she is to look at.
“Alone she sits underneath the night sky with the stars resembling like her field of flowers”
Mafuyu doesn’t want to interrupt the lady’s precious melody since she hasn’t been seen by her yet. So she decided to hide behind a huge rock to listen for a bit until she noticed that the humming grew fainter. Realizing that the moon lady’s performance is almost to an end, Mafuyu came out of her hiding place only to see that the moon is getting farther from her. The white haired girl began to slowly fade as if she’s one with the moon.
As the moon went away, she reached out her hand into the sky until the first rays of the sun had risen upon her. Knowing that this dream is about to end, she can’t help but wonder the strange feeling inside her heart when she first heard that tune.
Mafuyu woke up early to prepare for school but before heading out of her room, she decided to write something in her purple notebook. As soon as she’s done, she heads out only to be greeted by her mom first thing in the morning in front of her bedroom door.
“Good morning sweetie! Come outside, I’ve prepared breakfast for you.”
“Ah yes, thank you for preparing breakfast mom!”
Mafuyu went downstairs together with her mom and helped prepare the table to have breakfast. She began putting down glasses, plates, and bowls for their breakfast.
All seems to go well as her Mother begins preparing the food to be set up on their table. The plates and utensils are now aligned and so they started filling up their bowls with rice and the plates with their breakfast. After that, they started to offer their grace and began to eat.
It seems it's gonna be another fruitless day for Mafuyu to repeat everything she's accustomed with thanks to her Mothers “guidance”.
Without anything to look forward to for the day, she spent the rest of her time wondering if she’ll ever meet the fascinating girl in her dreams. This is the first time something eventful happened to her again.
------------------------------
Its 9:00 pm now
Mafuyu finally finished what she needed for her school as well as creating a new schedule for tomorrow. Such mundane tasks have always made Mafuyu feel like a robot bound with responsibilities and tasks.
But ever since that dream she had last night, her mind kept wandering to the sceneries of that dream. Interest became curiosity, and curiosity became desperation. Her desire to see her again has fueled her willingness to meet her.
And so she waits by her desk, writing to keep her mind at ease. She allowed her mind to wander as the pen moved along with the pages. It is through writing that Mafuyu developed a good sense of clarity when it comes to putting her thoughts within the pages. And as the time went by the clock had begun to reach at 1:00 Am.
“It's that time again…” “I want to see her again”
Mafuyu closed her eyes as she drifted to sleep. Her heart tugging the strings of her feelings, she can’t wait to see her again.
