We hired a bus: When I realized it, I was travelling in a bus. I looked around to see my family members and friends. There were lots of seats vacant and kids were running in the aisle. I realized, may be this is not a public bus, but one hired by us for our own travel purpose. I watched trees race backwards as the bus caught speed. I was still wondering where am I going?
The silent bus: I started walking inside the bus, but everyone was busy looking outside at the trees racing backwards. I reach the last seat, where another young man is sitting watching outside. I realized he is not a family member nor a friend. But I knew him by face. A moment of recalling makes me realize he is Abdur Razzaq, the pakistani cricketer. I get into a conversation with him, but I seem to foget what we are talking. I look outside & see that the trees are still racing backwards.
Bus Exit: Before I realize the bus has stopped & I see everyone outside. I wondered how everyone including myself got out so quick! I look around to see a mother helping a child attend nature' call. I cant see them as they are facing the other side as it always happens! I also see few men lining up along the edge of the road. Again I cant see anyone's face as they are facing the other side, as it always happens. (now I can say thank God!). I am left wondering why no one is talking to anyone, did we all come this far in a bus to put urea to some roadside trees? ( now I wonder if it was some 'friendship express'? )
Its a Terrorist: before I realized I was back in seat & Abdur Razzaq had not got in yet. Before I realize I have opened his bag & am checking his belongings. I find some heavy thing with some wires & digital display attached. I wonder what it is, try to recollect if its something I have seen before. I am confused. I next check his file, which has each page with a photo & text. I quickly realized the file was list of targets & I quickly browse to see photos of Thackrey, Rahul, Amir khan. I suddenly realized the heavy thing in the bag was a bomb. I quickly see him coming & close the file. I want to tell someone that he is a terrorist, but everyone is busy seeing trees racing backwards!
Bus becomes train: before I realized I am travelling in metro train, leaving me confused - when did we get down from bus? But I realize all of us together. I look around to see if Abdur Razzaq is still around. I realized he is transformed into another man but carrying the same bag & file. I am worried as terrorist is still with us. I look around for a phone booth as I want to call police, but cant find one ( now I wonder where went cellphone?). Before I realized I am at home, so is the terrorist. I dont know how, but I conveyed everything to my dad & he wants to throw the bomb bag outside & call the police. I tell him to keep quiet as it can explode & terrorist might be having a gun. Suddenly I hear terrorist saying he is going out for a walk.
terrorist is our guest: Before I realize my dad & me are trying to deactivate the bomb. We both cut & pull some wires. I also keep checking the door to see if terrorist comes back. We cut more wires, still more wires, but the wires keep coming. I wondered how is this happening? when I first saw the bomb in bus there were hardly more than 4 wires! Though my hands are not moving I can feel them trembling. I am also grasping the file closely, its an evidence you see.
Bomb Disposal time : After cutting all the wires I realize there are only 2 wires now, I get confused then (now I wonder where did wires come from and where they went?) . Now we need to cut both wires..together. Both dad & me keep our scissors on both wires, I count down, and at count of 3 we both cut! It didnt explode yet, before I realize a nice music begins to play from the bomb device. The music sound gets louder & louder. I fear if the bomb is going to explode now. I take the the digital display into hand, check for clues, its lighted & playing the music. I see 'stop' & 'Snooze' at two corners. I realizeone of them should prevent the blast. I press on the 'snooze' option of my mobile phone, as I just realized the whole terrorist thing was happening in dream! The 'stop' , 'snooze' was from my alarm set in mobile!
Questions:This is stiching together of scenes from a recent 'dream' ( nightmare?)
1) why did terrorist initially came in the form of abdur razzaq, one of my fav cricketer?
2)Why do we not realise when we switch vehicles in dream?
3)Why did the bomb disposal music coincide with the alarm music?
thanks for reading, witty answers win IPL tickets ( which can be made use of in your next dream!)
