I Dream Of Dinner Novels & Stories

My dinner from last night that I didn’t have, I had forgotten again. The dreams have been making it hard for me to eat. Every time I have a dream, I wake up scared, sweaty, restless; it’s that awful, sick feeling. And for the last two weeks, I’ve been having those dreams of someone asking for help. They remind me of my experience and him, that person which I don’t want to remember but miss at the same time. A knock at my door distracts me from my thoughts. “Your majesty?” someone said.

She hated the island, said it smelled like fish and sweat and poverty. But I needed this break. Just a few days away from the sterile chaos of the city, the obligations, the deadlines, the expectations that came with being a Dankworth. I hadn't shaved in three days. My phone had been face-down since breakfast. Then, as if summoned by guilt itself, the damn phone lit up on the bamboo table next to my beer. Dianne 💋 CALLING... My stomach twisted slightly. I cursed under my breath, then grabbed the phone and stood up, walking away from the others toward a quieter side of the deck.

“Zeeb, look, I feel you’re forcing meanings into those dreams, finding a bit of closure in them. Everyone has dreams about people they’ve never met. So please—” I lifted my head and stared at the chandelier hanging in the room. The dim light created a serene atmosphere in the dining alcove of my bedroom. The setup should have been almost perfect, but it only highlighted how far my life had strayed from that ideal. Pushing those thoughts aside, I said, “I no longer have an appetite.

It was simply his imagination running wild because he had always longed for a sibling, and he wouldn't shut up about seeing his father either. I quickly recovered and forced a tight-lipped smile on my face. "That's interesting, sweetheart," I said. "But remember, sometimes our minds play tricks on us." He nodded reluctantly. Dave is a smartass; I'm glad he didn't prod further. At that moment, the maid brought a tray laden with well-cooked steaks and mashed potatoes. She set the tray carefully on the table. And I filled the glasses with orange juice. "Dinner is served. Do you need anything else, ma'am?"

"My father would like you to come over and have dinner with us to celebrate a new lease on life for you." I smiled with tears glimmering in my eyes. They were no longer a sign of despair, but hope. My smile widened as I said quietly, "I'm down."

If she said it, she'd never be able to walk away. She slipped out of his embrace, forcing her voice to stay calm. "The race got postponed. My phone was off, so I didn't see your messages." Darren didn't notice the storm beneath her calm. He just smiled, reaching out to playfully tap her nose. "No harm done. Don't pout—I'm not mad. You must be hungry." He jangled his car keys, his shirt and trousers sharp and crisp, his jacket slung casually over his arm. "I booked a table at that barbecue place you've been craving. Come on, princess, let's eat to your heart's content."

I hid my identity as a Mafia heiress to live a quiet life. I never thought my new neighbors would be the ones to pick a fight they can’t win. I'd just gotten back from the gallery when my phone started blowing up. On the Nextdoor community forum, a woman named Brenda had @'d me. "Hey, penthouse girl. You're single. What do you need a whole rooftop garden for? My husband's throwing a party. We'll be needing it starting tomorrow."

She will treat him in that diner. "I just hope that diner will be fixed soon. I really want to eat there and drink dragon fruit juice," she said to herself imagining the delicious food she would have been enjoying with him in the grandma's diner. Reaching her hand up to the ceiling. "Dad, I met a man today. His name is GD and he's cute. And we're going to eat at one of our favorite places but it's still under repair. " The room was only filled with silence with the collective chirping of crickets outside but it didn't feel sad like before as Daeira smiled before she closed her eyes and actually wished to see him in the dream.

My mind swam with the possibilities, but unless I was willing to sync to the public domain and use a search engine, I wasn't going to come up with any answers so long as the sun was still up. Figuring that I'd already cheated for the week, I opted to do another two lines of boost and hit the sack. The purple went down smooth and the rush was so intense that I white knuckled the blanket on my bed until the waves of electricity stopped rolling under my skin. Plugging back into my modem, I tried to leave any thoughts of the senator and his intruder behind. Paige, initiate dream sync. See you in a minute.

He said but didn’t open his eyes to look at me. “Tomorrow night the Hall family is coming for dinner.” When he didn’t reply, I kept going. “Can you ask everyone to attend the dinner?” “Yeah.” And that was it.
