MY DREAM

DREAM COME TRUE.

I layed my head to rest for the night as I reflected on the happenings of the day, i felt heavy hearted and pinned at the back of my shoulder, with no possibility of escape. Next room, I heard mum having another heated debate with dad, something which I was sure was trivial matter.  I was worried and my heart went out to  my sister who had gone out with a sugar daddy.
As I drifted off to sleep I dream't of the family I would like to have but not the one I have.
                It was a good Friday, quarter past four and soon I would leave the office. I walked towards the window and peeped outside. The traffic wasn't heavy as it does on Friday evening. People were jovially walking up and down welcoming the weekend in style.

Tik tak, tik tak, tik tak the clock on the wall kept reminding me. I took my coat that I had hanged it on the office hanger and locked the office then walked down stairs. In the packing, my Toyota Mark II welcomed gloriously as though it new weekend was here. I drove away in a smoushing speed to the highway. As usual I drove to my wife's working place to pick her before finding our way home. I found her waiting by the road side holding two gigantic luggages. They were weekend shopping, that meant no walking out over the weekend. She had done that before. She welcomed me with a brilliant smile, lips apart waiting for me to wet them up. I did as expected, this time she was sweet than before, wondering where the kissing skill she had gathered from. I assisted her dropping the bags into the back of the boot before driving to Our Lady of Angels Academy to collect our two angels, Harry and Berry.
The sight of the beautiful angels brought some happiness in heart. They ran towards us and directly into our arms. It felt so special to be greeted in a manner that symbolized love in our young family. They found their sits before letting my love sit behind the wheel to drive us safely home. On the way they shared what they had learn't for the day, sang their favorite songs, chatted some stories something which made our journey smooth back home. The gate man welcomed us home before the children ran into the sitting room to watch their favorite program "Smack Down" which had just started. I helped my wife taking the heavy bags into the kitchen. "You are such a wonderful husband", she uttered as she finds her way into my arms. I got hold her waist looked her into the eyes, and ooh she was indeed worthy my life. What happened thereafter I don't know because I realized I was on my bed. Beside me was the cute face that I found in the supermarket some years back. I squeezed her close to me, got hold of her, this time she pushed me away, in the air she whispered, "its getting late, let me prepare your favorite meal darling". I watched her as she walked out to the kitchen.
I joined my angels who were winding up on their program. Quietly i sat on the corner watching them discussing on how the program will end. Making me to wonder how such kids in their little age can be able to follow up a program till be able to foretell on what will happen next.
I was awoken by the noise of the children as they prepare to do their homework. How I fall asleep i cant tell. By now darkness had already overwhelmed the light, birds had already gone back to their nests, some cool gentle breeze of the night was cripping in. I helped my angles do their homework as they had already taken bath waiting for the delicious meal.
We took our meal and in deed it was delicious. Everybody seemed to be enjoying what was getting into their mouths. This made my children take a more weight of the food than usual. Time was running out and soon it will be midnight. I asked my kids to go and sleep and we escorted them to their bedroom. On their bed covered by white bedsheets, I put off the light and in the darkness they were illumining like angels. By now my love was on the door watching what I was doing, she nodded with disbelief,, and in deed was pleased with all that I was doing. We shut the door and walked out.
In our bedroom we chatted some few stories then walked to the bathroom to take some shower. Warmed in each others hands, we slowly embrassed while washing. We kissed endlessly and curdled up intimately. Took my towel dried my love up and she did the same before walking back to the bedroom. I prepared her to sleep like a queen and made her feel like a queen. I stayed up to watch her drifting off to sleep before I layed beside her, my arms over her, then all of a sudden a gripping and very rough hand grabbed me, some horse voice shouting, "get up, your getting late to school, all your fellow friends have left and your still sleeping". It was my grandmother. I lifted my head looked at her, then got up in a moody way. I sat thinking of what was going on before, ooh ALAS! it was a dream.
