I died.
But I didn't know how long after, I opened my eyes, only to find myself surrounded by a crowd of aliens. They said,
"Welcome back! How is your trip to Earth?"
Wtf?
Who are these guys?
And what do they mean by 'trip to Earth?'
I live on Earth, ok?

Wait! What weird language are they speaking? And how am I able to understand that weird language?
There can only be one explantion!
They are aliens!
So aliens really do exist, huh?
"Mika, how's Earth?", one of them asked.
"Earth is round!"
I resisted my urge to say that. Who knows what they'd do to me if I say that?
But how did I end up here in the first place? 🤔
How do I talk to them? What do I say?
As I was contemplating what to say, I heard noises from a distance. The noise grabbed everyone's attention.
Uff... I'm safe for now!
"What happened? What's the noise?", one of them asked. Looks like he's the leader here.
One of the alien guards rushed towards us and said, "Sir, it's the Earthlings! They're attacking us!"
"What? How can they attack us?", the leader said furiously and turned towards me.
"The negotiations didn't go well?", the leader questioned me.
What negotiations? And why are you asking me that? How am I supposed to know anything? And why are people from Earth attacking? Are the wars on Earth not enough? Why are they asking for more?
Upon not receiving any response from me, the leader furiously pointed at me and shouted, "You traitor! How could you not even fulfill responsibilities? Die for me!"
The leader stabbed me with his spear after saying that.
I could feel the sharp tip of the spear piercing through my heart, fresh blood flowing out from my mouth and from my heart.
And that's how I died again after bleeding to death.

Ring - ring
I suddenly jolted awake because of alarm sound from my sleep clutching my heart and looked at it.
"There's no hole, I didn't die", I thought and looked around.
I'm back in my bedroom, not in a bluish space.
Was that a dream? That felt so real! But I'm glad it is a dream!
And thus I continued to do my daily routine forgetting everything about the dream.
But what I didn't notice was the familiar looking ring that every alien in my dream had, at the corner of my room and the change it'd bring to my life.
