MIRI'S NIGHTMARE

 

Midnight. I’m asleep on my feet when suddenly the sun wakes me up. It’s a dazzling sun. I’ve just left my girlfriend, Ore is like the sun, dazzling. Eliot eats an apple under the big tree in the garden. I enter the house and, as usual, I take the lift. I’m in a hurry to lie on my bed. I’m in the lift, I’m lost in contemplation and I don’t notice that the lift doesn’t stop. When I finally notice it, the world has turned over. I go up towards the sky which became the earth. I can see blurred things :they are two shadows over me. I think that it’s two people. I can’t see who they are. The lift goes faster and faster and the more I go up, the more I see distinctly the two shadows. It’s two bodies ! It’s Ore ! And ELIOT !What ? Why is Ore here ? Why is MY girlfriend in MY garden with MY brother ? What… ? What are they doing ? It makes me crazy ! Eliot is making love to Ore. Suddenly the lift stops, my eyes convulse and when they stop, the lift starts again but the world has changed again. Ore is under the lift and screams ! She will fall if I do nothing ! I don’t know how to open the hatch under my feet. Unbelievable ! This is a chalk hatch ! I begin to gnaw the hatch, it’s so delicious ! I’ve finished ! I catch Ore’s hand but she pulls me down and we fall from the sky ! She bites me, she scratches me, her eyes are red and I can read in her mind ! She’s thinking of Eliot, she remembers his lips ! Ore continues to kill me, she rips my arm off and when I scream, she munches in my flesh and laughs so sarcasticly…..
