Hotel-swim-shed-run-black.

The 4 of us walked up the stairs, gazing at the sparkles on all four walls. It was heaven-like, a perfect vacation. Just the right timing after all the chaos life brought itself upon. No baggages, just us and the holiday.

A dip in the pool, how cooling. Fountains of fresh mountain water, bringing life to those who swim in it. All 4 of us went in, bringing the best of our burden hoping all would be washed away. Then a channel appeared. The sky turned dark. The waters we were in started rushing out and we found ourselves being rushed out too, with the water!

We ended in the sea. Nothing but the horizon. A wave crushed on us, and we landed on the shore. Surprisingly we were all dry, not a single part of us was drenched. Next thing was, we all got up and walked into a shed that appeared few moments later.

Once we entered the shed, the door closed behind us and started shaking. It felt as if an earthquake was happening, but we found the shed moving away from its grounds, taking us with it. The door flung open all of a sudden, and a dog-wolf-tiger creature sprang up out of nowhere taking a bite of my jeans. I had the shock of my life and started kicking my leg hoping to get it off, to no avail it took a strong grip. It was all so panicky and suddenly a friend said "God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob!" and the creature let loose. The shed was then still and the creature jumped out from the door.

A few moments later a crocodile-bull-something crawled behind another friend and almost snapped her legs when this friend called out once more "God of Esau, ...(something something I forgot)" and that creature immediately closed its jaws and retreated.

Running out of the shed, two of us girls hunted for the hotel. We ran though the woods, crossed the streams and ran till we saw a row of shops. We ran to our car (goodness knows how the car ended itself there) and drove to some place.

Upon arrival, she parked and forgot to put the parking coupon, of which I reminded her. But she ran out of coupons and we looked up and saw a coupon stand and bought the RM4.20 set. But once we got the book, it was all used coupons. There were poked holes on different dates and time, and we asked for a new set. The lady had no other sets but just one piece, so we took the one piece and had it placed on the dashboard.

Rushing to the place (which I assumed to be the hotel to get out belongings), we once again turned back to grab our laptops that were left in the car. I went back to get them, and then the event became blur..

When the image was clearer, both us girls ran under the rain with our laptops and when the rain got heavier, we stopped at a nearby stall. I carelessly left my friend's laptop (she held mine) there and only remembered when we reached the hotel which had no more sparkles on its walls. The moment she knew about it, she scolded me so badly that I shivered and all went black.
