Dreams

I remembered this dream vividly.

I cannot say this dream of mine is pleasant.

That said, I shall keep comments close to my chest.

Settings: At a round table where some others and I have gathered for dinner.

On my right is a vacant seat, which I specifically instructed the waitress that the seat is reserved for a lady who was late, hence, do not attempt to remove any cutlery from that seat.

Having heard what I said, the waitress glared at me.
I am not sure if she has heard me correctly, so I repeated my instructions.

This time round, the waitress flared up and shouted at me.

To which I responded, with fire in my eyes, I asked her:

“Why are you shouting at me?”

The waitress ignored me and continued to shout at me, showing her displeasure.

I raised my voice and asked her again:

“What's your problem?”
“Why are you shouting at me?

The waitress retorted by telling me off: “Kao Beh !!!” (dialect)

I was very angry and wanted to summon the captain. Before I could react, the waitress ran away in the direction of the kitchen, leaving me speechless.

I gestured for the captain but he seemed to be unavailable.

I sat there fuming, wondering what kind of (dis)service I was getting.

Later, I asked for a glass of iced water.
When the waitress served the glass of water, she slammed it down on the table. So hard was her action that water spilled onto the table.

I look up at the waitress in surprise.
She looked down at me.
I instantly recognized her as the waitress who was rude to me just now.
She said something to me which sounded like “so what?”

By then, I was fuming.
As the waitress turned away, I grabbed the glass of iced water.
I aimed at her face. Holding the glass firmly in my hand, I flung the iced water at her face.

I heard her scream. . .
I saw her face dripping wet with iced water.
I saw her ran away in the direction of the kitchen again.

By now, I woke up.

I do not know the meaning of this dream of mine.
It is undeniably strange.
