I woke up, covered in sweat

It was 5 in the morning, I was shaking a lot

So it was a dream...

But why..

I've decided to calm down a bit

I still had this dream in my head, I opened the window to get some air

"Ahh, why?"

From the nightstand I take out my e-cigarette, I decided to calm down more

I was sitting by the open window, smoking a cigarette, a cherry if I remember correctly

I started talking to myself

"What was that supposed to be? Did it have anything to do with the song from Mel? I'm a complete moron, and here you are, baba pie, I had to look at this rejected project"

My thoughts were interrupted by my neighbor Marie

"Hello dear neighbor, I see missed mail again, your papers are flying around my garden!"

"Excuse me Miss Marie, I'll try to clean them up today"

"I hope what's bothering you miss? It's not every day I see you with a cigarette"

Shit, I need to think of something

"I'm stressed about the job exam, today I'm going to see if I can do it"

"Well, I wish you good luck, and I hope you clean up that garbage, young lady'

Mrs. Marie entered her house, I stopped smoking a cigarette and called Eliza

It was 10 in the morning, I made an appointment with El to the cafe

When I arrived, she was already waiting for me

"Giirll, what's got you so stressed out?"

"This butterfly.."

I started stuttering slightly

"What butterfly? You mean that Melanie song?"

"Yah, I dreamed last night of a giant butterfly monster that wanted to catch me"

"That's no good, scary"

"I wonder what I can do with these pictures and the lyrics of the song"

"Girl, put on the internet!"

"What? Why?"

"You're gonna be popular, and who knows, maybe it's a riddle from Melanie, I bet whoever finds out this secret first will be popular! And I know how badly you want what Mel has"

Eliza is right and she is never wrong.

I pulled out my phone asap

And I started sharing everything
