“The mind is the seat of hate, antagonism, opposition and of conflict”, read Z. “I guess that’s true.” He wrote a big capital T on his paper and began to explain the concept. After explaining 3 more theories which he purposely studied before sleeping, Z suddenly found himself in a forest path.

          “Wooah, where the hell am I?”, asked Z to himself. He walked a few steps south of the forest path when he saw a white castle in the distance. “What the? Woah, where the hell am I? What the hell is that”

          “Your in Shahana Forest and that is the castle of Minde”, said a voice behind him. Z turned around to find only birds, beavers and a white dog who stares at him like he was newly cooked steak.

          “O-kay… freaky!!! I wanna ask you guys what’s going on but I rather not…” Z continued walking south of the forest path as if he was being called by the castle. He was about to stop and rest until he reached a tall marble-like gate guarded by… guards. “Good afternoon sirs, I was just wonderi… WOAH!” stopped Z as the guards suddenly checked him like mall security. “O-kay… freakier!!! Can you guys understand English? I am Z” explained Z as he jokingly write his single-lettered name in the air.

          “What’s this”, asked one of the guards holding out Z’s cell phone? “Tell us!!!!!” shouted the guards as they examined the weird mechanical device in Z’s jacket pocket. “Ummh, that’s a cell-phone. C-E-L-L-P-H-O-N-E.” spelled Z jokingly as the guards examined his phone. “Anyways, I was informed that this was Minde. Is that right?” asked Z but still the guards were too amazed by his cellphone that he seemed not there. “O-kay. I was just wondering if this was the village where a woman was killed after giving birth by a…”

          The guards suddenly dropped Z’s phone and lifted him by the shoulders with an angry look on their faces. “How dare you speak so shamelessly of the queen’s death!!! Come with us, we will take you to the courtyard to be killed. Noone has a right to disgrace the queen’s death.” The guards were about to bring Z inside when a dog bit the guards unarmored leg. “(Aray! joke. ehehehe)… Aaaarrgghhh!” screamed the guard as he dropped Z. Z kicked the other guard and ran off. The dog ran as well with Z’s phone in its mouth. Z however tripped as if he was tripped by an invisible leg of an elephant and fell down face-first to the ground. The last thing he saw was the white dog looking at him from a distance. His cellphone clutched in its mouth.

          “Stand up. Z!!! Wake up… Its almost time to pass our test papers” said his seatmate as Z woke up from his sleep in the classroom. Z opened his eyes and felt a sharp pain in his face as if he just fell down face first. “Aaaww…” said Z.

          “Ok, that’s it. Please pass your papers and you may go. Don’t forget your group presentations on Monday. Have a nice weekend.” Said the professor as the students passed their papers forward like obedient elementary students. Z was about to exit when the guy who woke him up shouted.

          “Hey Z, I need your cell phone number! Hey” Yawning, Z searched his jacket pocket and was suddenly wide awake. “My number is 09216024027. Kindly call me now. As in right now” said Z while he overturned his bag in search of his phone. “Is it ringing?”

          “Yes it is… Why? Lost your phone?” asked the guy whose name is not really important.

          “I think I left it somewhere… Oh well. Kindly keep calling. And send me a message so I’ll know it’s you if ever I find it at home.” Said Z as he looked everywhere in the classroom. A few minutes of hopeless search, Z and his classmate went out. “Oh well. I might have left it somewhere. Time for me to wake up.”

          “What? Woah, what are you doing?” asked the classmate as Z suddenly stood in the edge of the third floor preparing to jump. “Z, I know you love that phone but isn’t that a bit too much. I mean, you committing suicide just because you lost your phone. Hey!!!” shouted the classmate as Z suddenly jumped out. The classmate looked at where Z should have landed and found nothing.

          Z suddenly felt as if his consciousness was forced back down into his body from a different realm. He opened his eyes and said “YEAH! I love doing that. Nyahahaha” Z was now back to the real real. “Haaaa…” yawned Z as he saw his night clock. “3 AM… Sleep again…” said Z as his brain once again drifted into the unknown. Meanwhile, back in Z’s dream which seems to be real also.

          “That… was way beyond weird. I think we should call the infirmary or the doctors or perhaps the mental institution.” said the classmate to the crowd. As he looked again in his cellphone, he noticed that he was still calling Z. It was ringing. And in the near distance, a cellphone rang. A lady of about 16 years of age was holding Z’s cellphone as it rang in her hand. She saw the whole thing and was not a bit surprised as she recalled seeing Z falling to his certain death, and vanished the second his body almost touched the ground.

          “So… Your name is Z.” said the maiden as she walked away and suddenly disappeared. “Interesting” said a voice in the wind from where the lady used to stand.
