I felt someone sitting by my bed, the lights were switched off and I couldn't see clearly. I reached for my side lamp and saw the little boy, Allan. He was coughing with so much force my bed was shaking.
'Hey, Allan right? Are you ok?'
He didn't turn to face me, instead he waved his hand in the air and continued coughing. It wasn't a regular cough, he was practically choking. I felt the sudden urgency to get a doctor into the room but despite trying to get a nurse in, no one came.
'Hee... Hahaha...'
A sudden snigger was emitted from the child's mouth. I was stumped, I had no idea what was going on. I felt a cold chill going up my spine as he turned to face me. His eyes were bloodshot and he was bleeding from his nose. He grinned at me and reached his hands out to my face.
I was in so much fear I had no control over my body. I wanted to get out of the room but despite my relentless attempts to move I was nailed down to the bed. I was practically tearing by the smell of rotten meat as his hands got closer to me. I closed my eyes and started chanting some prayers in hope that I would be saved.
'Join me won't you... I will see you soon...'
Cold sweat dripped down my face as I opened my eyes. I had tears on my face, it felt so real, it didn't seem like a dream at all. When I look across the room, I saw a white sheet over Allan's face. A couple of male nurses were carrying him onto another bed.
'Sorry, but what happened to him?'
'Poor kid choked when he was sleeping last night. When we got to him his eyes were bloodshot and he was bleeding profusely from his nose. We were too late...'
A tear of remorse trickled down my cheek, I was sorry for the kid, he was still so young, why was he taken away from this world?
It suddenly struck me that his death was exactly the same that I pictured in my dream. Fear began to take control of me once again, it didn't feel like a coincidence. Something is really wrong, these nightmares seem to appear whenever someone around me dies. What does it mean?
I need answers, fast...
