My Good Life

Chapter 6 

After the encounter with the mysterious person who I fell in love at first sight, I began dreaming of him every day. It is a pity… the dreams weren’t spring dream. It had no relationship with romance and love stories.

The scene I dreamed of were broken and chaotic. At times gun fired, and the huge explosion shocked me awake from my dreams. Sometimes they were very peaceful. A woman sang in pleasant weather like this mountain town in summer. Sometimes It took me to the battlefield of the cold weapon era. In my dream, I became a vague black general, raising a sword and beheading the enemy on the cold sand.

I think that after being scared by zombies, my brain got over-excited. Too much inspiration that can’t be all exposed by my drawings in the day, got reflected in my dreams. I drew down these dream scenes with dedication.

I always thought God was open-minded and gave me inspiration every day until one day. I accompanied Li Zhi her to walk the dog. A rare sun in Chongqing got me comfortable like a spring sun. I stretched out and looked at Li Zhi’s side. She was wearing a big sunhat, and huge sunglasses almost covered her face. She was wearing a sun mask, completely blocked the sun rays. 

“Is it hard to get out during the day?”

I asked her, then pulled the rope, letting Dumbo run. Li Zhi up pushed the sunglasses: ” I got a few days off and if I don’t go out, it’s so wrong.”

I bit my lip and didn’t poke her anymore. All the time home she got bored. She couldn’t help herself but pick up the dog for a walk during the day. In the past few days, she did not go to work. It was because…

She was afraid of ghosts. Yes, as a vampire with the same role as the “ghost” , was afraid of ghosts. Especially the ghosts in Chinese legends, the ghosts in horror movies and even the infamous fear of the zombies appeared these days.

After I was bitten by a zombie that day, she came knowing the zombies that had been scattered in the vicinity. So she didn’t dare to go out to work alone at night. I walked with her for a while, then sat down on the chair under the trees, pondering over yesterday’s dream.
