Reawaken

I look at the small orange bottle on my nightstand. Hopefully I will get a decent amount of sleep tonight. Within five minutes I’m out like a light…

It’s late, and I’m hungry. I go out into the hall, and see a sign: *FREE DONUTS ON ROOF!* This is weird. Then it dawns on me-the pills had side effects, one of which being vivid dreams. So I must be dreaming right now. When I get to the roof, the donuts are gone. Well, if this is a dream… I try to concentrate: _*There is one more donut…*_ Then, I find another donut underneath the parchment paper. I could get used to this. After I finish my donut, I see a flock of pigeons fly by. Since I was a kid, I’ve always wanted to be able to fly. Why not give it a shot? I step to the edge of the roof, and the donut guy yells a warning. I just laugh, spread my arms, and step off the roof. My final thought was, _Why am I still dreaming?_

*Statement from the witness:* I don’t know, the guy seemed like he was dreaming or something… poor guy probably thought he could fly.
