I Fucking Hate Rats

I keep having this recurring dream since I was eight years old and it's the scariest shit I've ever experienced in my life.

I'm in my old school in Puerto Rico, fucking hate this place. There's a wide basketball court outside where all the boys would play even if it was hot as fuck outside. I'm in my old uniform, a plaid skirt and a white polo shirt with a long cardigan and knee socks. They made us look like fucking porn stars back then. Two doors are in front of me. I start getting pulled in by the left door. I resist. The force gets stronger and stronger and I'm being dragged away from everything I know. I dig into the ground in vain as my nails fall and it stings because the dirt is mixed in with my fresh wounds. I beg and I sob for it to all stop and it does. I wake up, but in what looks to be a very small house. I'm on a stained bed and there's someone looking at me. An old woman with long, dry hair whispers something to me. "You are mine now. I am your master and you are my pet and you will never escape"

Fuck that.

I see a door and my body runs toward it like I'm in the Olympics trying to win a stupid gold medal. The old bitch transforms into a huge, hairless rodent  with red glossy eyes that made my soul shiver inside. She bit my neck and I tried getting away, but she got a hold of me. I was on the floor getting eaten by a rat. I always have fucked up dreams, but this one was different, I felt the pain and I woke up crying. I don't like sleeping anymore.
