The mysterious man Part III

I… had a nightmare.

In the dream, I saw myself stumbling down into the massive sea. Sharks surrounded me. They were eating the remains of dead people, who, no matter how hard I looked, were clearly my parents. I wept and tried to beg the sharks to let my parents go. All I heard were sobs.

And the words would not reach them.

‘Hic… mom, dad.’

‘Crying won’t make you any worthier.’

‘Ah…’

‘It makes you look even more worthless.’ The deep voice surrounded me like a Grim Reaper playing tricks on me to make me numb. I glanced around under the water. There was nothing except scarlet blood and the debris left by dozens of sharks.

I could not breathe. My air had almost run out and I was going to die.

While I told myself to stop crying, someone was swimming closer.
