Dreaming

I am in Dad’s car, in the backseat. Abi is in the passenger seat, and Josh is driving. We are going to Jim and Mary’s house. I have to pick Dad up again at 1.30 pm; it is already that time.

A car approaches ours, and Josh skillfully reverses the car to let the other car pass. We get to Jim and Mary’s house and go in. There is a baby boy there; I pick him up and fall in love with him. He enjoys playing with me – laughing and cuddling into me – until he falls asleep.

I ask Abi to teach me how to reverse the car. She gets in the driver’s seat; Josh is in the passenger seat. She drives away, almost hitting a Mercedes as she goes. I still don’t know how to use reverse. I hear some music and do a dance. Maddy does the same, and I think how odd she looks; it is out of character for her. I am trying to work out whose baby it is, whether it is my uncle’s or my cousin’s.
