The Puppet Master

*Jenny's POV*
Birds were chirping. The wind's murmur rang into my ears. A fresh breeze made my nose tickle.
"Where am I?" I thought. It felt so real again.
My hands were clawing into raspy wood.
Finally, I was able to open my eyes.
I saw the treetops and some bright little sunrays fighting their way through the tight woods.
Then I realized I was sitting on a tree. A very high tree.

"Oh no. Oh no, oh no, oh no" I started to talk to myself "...Jenny, you have to go down that tree. Someday you have to be stronger than your fear"
It sounded so easy, but for me it was real pain.
I cursed the whole way I've been struggling down. Why do I always have to dream that I was on a tree?!

But I got through it after a really long time and it wasn't even that hard!

Just joking, it was horrible. My arms and legs hurt and my hands were scraped because of the rough bark. Oh, and I was shaking.
After I promised myself to never do that again I started to walk through the woods.

It didn't take long until I reached a clearing.
The wind was playing with the bright green grass and some flowers. I freed myself out of the branches.
"Wonderful" I thought in a sarcastic way as I realized some leaves on my head. In those moments I regret my long hair - it was always a war to pull them out.
"Can this dream get a little bit better? Please?" I whined. Things like that are always happening to me!

I looked around. Nothing but trees, flowers and grass.
But stop - something sat there... Was it...?

"Emilie!" I called out. It had to be her.
She saw into my direction. Then a smile appeared on her face "Jenny?"
I went to her "Oh my god, it's really you!"
"Yes! ...but at the same time not real. I mean we're dreaming again" she laughed
"Oh god, that's really confusing..." I giggled as I sat down next to her
It was quiet for a few seconds. Only the birds were chriping again until I said "Do you think the dreams we're dreaming now are different than the ones we always had before?"
"I'm not really sure about it. What about you?" she answered
"Well... I think the dreams we have right now are different than the ones we used to have... I've never had a shared dream. I always thought it only existed in books and movies"
"I think we both never had shared dreams before"
I nodded "It's really creepy"
"Don't worry" Emilie smiled at me - I smiled back


"Jenny! Frühstück!" my mom woke me up as she said the breakfast was ready
"Oh no.." I whined. I just met Emilie and now I'm awake! Ughhh!
Why was it that hard to meet her a little longer?
