Aquarius 1rd

My eyes open wisely as I heard the sound of the eagle wander around my ear.

“Where is this place?” I asked myself as I sit up straight and look around.

The room is like a teepee with 17 long small oak tree’ trunks as a pole, prop up about 20 ft from the ground. At one side of the room is connected to another really small room about 4m2. This whole place is covering by white fabric that makes me feel I am in the funeral ceremony. But because of those artistic drawing of animals, rivers, flowers, trees, stars, moon, and the sun, make the room looks more lively. The rustling ground holding the tables, bed, and chairs that made out of Krongoung trees. Some rare stuff such as white tigers and lions heads are hanging as a decoration and I can see their skin has been used as bed sheets.

Because the place looking very traditional, my brain tells me that it is just a dream. I try to hit my cheeks a few times and the result is the 10 fingers print on the white cheeks. I guess It’s not a dream and it’s not my illumination.

I feel shocked and instantaneously get out of the bed after hearing the footstep that getting closer and closer. The fabric pieces have left up while something appears out of nowhere. The looking soft black hair bouncing as the owner walk across the room. He’s walking half naked with those kbin (Cambodia transitional pants).

“You already wake up, your highness” he bows while keeping his eyes at my face direction.

“Who are you? Where am I?”

“My name is Arun, I already prepare the bath for you your highness.” he’s looking straight at my eyes.

“Wait! Why you called me your highness?”

“Because you are the person that God brings to us at the Lotus ceremony.”

“Please! Come outside after you shower, the tribal chief and others are waiting for you.”

After he told me, he closes the fabric back. I hand is just stuck in the air because I don’t get to ask any question.

I start to walk around to find the bathroom as he told because I feel so sticky. After 5 minutes, I ended up in the small room which is not a room like I thought. it’s a bathroom with the small pond. I can see the smoke coming out of the clear water. The pond cover by the big rocks and beautiful trees. There are some purslane and portulaca rubbing around the oak tree branches and some of them are falling down on top of the water. The sound of the leaves crashing each other and the voice of birds singing makes me want to dance along. The smell of flowers and plants doesn’t seems bad at all. It’s like I am in the Onsen (hot spring from Japan) were people taking time to enjoy the warm water when the outside place is freezing.

Tap! Tap!

I look into the water and it was so clear like a glass. The shadow reflects my long brown curly hair and my little face.

“Flat chests?? Ah!!” I screamed while touching my chests.

“I am a guy? What the heck is going on?” I try to take my clothes off and check. What I see is a small guy with blue eyes.

I am a guy in this world. I might be in the identical world because of no matter how much I try to make myself awake from the dream. The only thing I remember is that I was about to head to the kitchen, then a smell of flower that I never know grabbed me away, and the next things I saw was the room. I am so afraid of my young man body with woman face. The only thing I can do about it to overcome it and try to figure out the solution to go back home later.
