A dream and then an awkward silence!

I was tired watching TV for such a long time that I din't realise when I had dozed off on that cozy leather bean bag with a blanket. I had been watching all the New Year Eve programs on the idiot box since 9 pm.


And then lo! I had a dream. I usually do not dream.


It was a maze of faces. Everyone I knew in life. Well... Almost... Each face appeared before me in the chronological order of their appearance in my life. Family, friends, classmates, teachers, crushes, acquaintances and even some regular shop-keepers. I know it sounds strange. But I did see and recognize most of the faces. And each face had an expression or something to tell me.


I was trying to reply frantically but just couldn't seem to have the energy or time justifying what I had to say. It was all a frenzied maze of faces. And then I woke up all startled and with a strong pain in my head.


And a very awkward silence!
