August 24, Monday

I stir a chocolate chip bowl mixture quickly making sure everything inside is mixed up. I had made almost 20 batches of different treats today. I was definitely tired and my arms hurt but I would rather do this than an office job.

Every time a new customer comes in the bell rings letting me and Rebecca know. Whenever I was done making enough batches for the time being I would go out there and help her. Apparently a coworker that is working here went on vacation this week and will be back next week. So everything is a little hectic right now.

The rest of the day consist of me making more treats. Rebecca was really nice. She had long blonde hair with bangs and a hipster kinda style. She wore really bright colors too. Her attitude was just really chill.

I wish I was like her. So outgoing and not afraid of her own voice. I'd be to shy to be the manager of a business. I can barely talk to other people without stuttering. I've gotten better about it though.

It was finally closing time. For being my first day, I liked it. I said my goodbyes to Rebecca and left. I drove on the busy streets from other people getting off work. This time I didn't play music.

As I walked into my apartment my phone rang. Checking the caller ID I answer it.

"Hey cupcake. How's the move been so far?" Ethan, a friend of mine from home says.

Before I left, I met him at my old job. Turned out he had a crush on me but I didn't return the feelings. Ethan still said he wanted to be friends with me and maybe try again. But after my first relationship, I don't think I can.

"Fine, I'm almost done with all the rooms. How's everything back in Cali." I say shoving my clothes off. I almost wanted to just lay naked in my bed.

"Good. No news. People have been asking me where you've went though." Ethan says with a sigh. I left so quickly without telling a lot of people so I bet there confused.

"Has Ace contacted you?" I say holding my breath. Ace was a bad memory that I thought of almost every day.

"I didn't wanna tell you but yes. He came by the building yesterday and asked where you were." Ace was the man I dated. After breaking up he began to stalk me. Sometimes I would see him outside of my house. From high school to college. After awhile he quit but then started back up again. I don't know what he wants from me.

"You didn't tell him right?" I say concerned. That would be the death of me if he followed me here.

"Obviously not. I'm not stupid." I sigh in relief. I talk to Ethan for a couple more minutes then tell him goodnight. He was nice and treated me sweetly.

My feet stomp on the ground as I run from the creature behind me. Dirt flies as it slips between my toes. The growls from behind me make my stomach flutter but I'm also frightened.

I run for what feels like hours until I hit a pond. The crystal clear pond. I could see the bottom. A growl from behind me makes me turn around.

The creature slowly enters the moonlight from being in the dark woods.

The creature was enormous and beautiful. It was taller than me and close to being the size of a small truck. It's black fur looked soft in the light but it's teeth made me rethink its innocence.

The wolf growled at me making me back away from it. My dream state made everything blurry but I still could see the wolf perfectly.

Suddenly the moon disappeared. I look up trying to find light when I'm tackled.

August 27, Thursday

I wake up once again sweaty. It's Thursday now. This dream has become apart of my life. I want to figure out why I'm having it. Is the wolf a metaphor for something? Obviously I'm not gonna die by a wolf attack so it must be.

I look over at my alarm seeing I only have a couple more minutes before I have to get up. I take the opportunity and lay back down just to be awaken in 3 minutes.
