" Sam go welcome your daddy!" their mum shouted
As she stepped out with her brothers to greet their dad, Mira felt weird, not knowing what was happening she got scared. Like other dreams she occasionally has, she felt so real yet lost.
Her dad usually stays a while in the car before stepping out so she didn't really rely on that. Her bothers just greeted and passed, but inquisitive Mira wanted to drag on driven by that urge to act, she stepped closer and opened the car door, just to be carried away by the blood smeared on the side of her dad's face.

As she jumped out of bed, soaked with sweat dripping down her body, Mira couldn't even remember when she fell asleep talk less of diving into such a dreadful dream. This was the negative part of her gift, majority of things she sees are dreadful.
