My Little Black Book

This incredible story begins in 2019, after I had my first premonitory dream. To be honest, I don’t know if it was my dream which was premonitory or if it was the little black book in which I wrote that dream that was magical. Anyway, all I know is that since I started using this notebook, I’ve realised that all my dreams were coming true!

My first dream wasn’t that clear, but weird enough to take note of it somewhere. So, to tell you in more detail, I was in an infinitely white place. I know what you might be thinking and no, I wasn’t in a coma or walking through a tunnel to end up in Heaven. None of that, just a huge, white and bright place. I was there alone and all of a sudden, a friend of mine appeared. His name was Fred, and he was dressed in white clothes with a red hibiscus stuck behind his left ear, like a Tahitian vahine, except that he was fully dressed and, most importantly, was a guy! But let's go back to the dream. Fred walked towards me, stopped right in front of me, and that’s it. I hope that you weren’t expecting more because I warned you that it was weird.

When I woke up the morning after, I could remember everything, so I grabbed the first thing that I found in the drawer of my bedside table. It was that small black book I had bought two days before for no special reason, but I had the feeling that I had to buy it. After having written each detail of my dream in it, I continued my day as usual. I went to university and everything was normal until my lunch break.

I was sitting on a bench with some friends when I noticed from afar the friend that I had dreamed of. I started to laugh nervously because he was dressed all in white! OMG! One of my friends, Laura, asked me why I was giggling like that and I told her the whole story, adding that only the red hibiscus was missing. But while he was approaching, I started to get scared and teary-eyed. Laura checked on me to see if I was okay, but I pointed my finger at Fred and said, “He doesn’t have the flower stuck behind his ear, but it’s on the left side of his t-shirt.” (You know, like the t-shirts of some surf brands that I can’t mention here because I don’t get paid to advertise!). Anyway, I couldn’t believe my eyes. Every element of his appearance in my dream was right here in front of me in real life. I overthought about it throughout the whole afternoon and the days after, still in shock and surprise.

Some time passed, and after a few weeks, I had another dream. This one was the opposite of the previous one. I was in a dark place but not that dark because I could tell that there was a trench on the ground or a kind of crack in the ground. And this time you must surely be thinking that it was hell or its entrance. But no, there was neither fire nor screaming. I was then trying to figure out what it was exactly but as I couldn’t, so I decided to walk away. At this very moment, I heard someone shouting numbers from the depth of the breach and woke up in a start. Still a little restless, I managed to scribble these numbers in my notebook.

That happened in the middle of the night, so obviously, when I got up the next morning I could barely remember this dream. It wasn’t until I came back from college that I realised the book was out of its usual place. I opened it and saw those numbers. (Don’t expect me to give them to you unless you promise to share any money you could win thanks to them!) Five numbers that didn’t make sense to me. Nothing related to dates of birth, phone numbers, lucky numbers, no, none of that.

I didn’t really know what I should or could do with them. Maybe rob a safe at a bank ? (I’m joking!). As I couldn’t find any use for them, I decided to let it go! And apparently this thought released a strong vibration in the universe because the next day, while I was watching TV, I saw an ad for a special $20,000 prize for a horse race. Instantly everything became clearer, I had five numbers and they were exactly what I needed to play this game. So I thought: “Why not? I have nothing to lose other than the $2 I will bet!”. This happened on a Saturday and the race was to be run the following Saturday. I had plenty of time to play these “magic” numbers.

On D-day, I was really nervous and excited at the same time. I knew that there was a slim chance for me to win this prize but on the other hand, I was trying to attract all the good vibes I could to make this happen for real. I even kept this dream to myself, firstly because I didn’t want people to see me as crazy (even if it’s already the case) but also because this dream was given to ME, so I wanted to use it only for myself (Selfish, isn’t it? I don’t care!).

The horse race was held in the afternoon. I was sitting ready in front of my TV. I couldn’t help but pray for a miracle, thinking that my first premonitory dream prepared me for this day and this prize. The race started and I had the impression that it was eeeendless. And then, the horses crossed the finish line. One after the other, they were crossing the line, giving me the time to check my ticket. And you know what? I lost! (Ah ah ah) No, just kidding, I won!!! Every number, every horse was at the right place in the right order, and since I was the only one who got them, I won the total prize of $20,000. I couldn’t believe it! (OMG²). If someone had told me that one day I could have made so much money with a dream, I would have laughed at them.

I can tell you that until now, when I’m thinking about this story, I laugh. I’m still amazed by this story even though I still have other dreams that I write down in my little black book which amaze me more than this one. But you know what? That’s another story for another time, and thank you my little black book. ;-)
