you think you’re imagining it at first.

it rouses you - that steady, hollow sound of something knocking on wood. your light dream shifts, scenery changing to fit the sudden noise sinking into your subconscious. after another minute, however, it doesn’t go away, and you are forced to fully retreat from the bliss of your nap.Β Β
