The punishment

by Iza Deleanu

The author has placed a warning on this post for language.

- Mommy, mommy we want breakfast.

Half asleep I mumbled:

- Come on kitties, give mommy a break. Five more minutes and I'll give your Fancy Feast!

- Mommy that's Tom's breakfast, we want food!

I opened my eyes and there were two little kids looking at me and smiling sweetly. I jumped like I had been burned, swearing:

- Holy guacamole, who are you guys?

- Mommy, we are your sweet peas, Kyle and Kelly.

- KK, oh God! But I have no kids! I have two cats and a husband.

Kyle, the boy started to laugh like crazy.

- Kelly, that man was right that she will not remember. You have two kids, a cat, and what's a husband?

Now, was my turn to play the confused card. Oh, God, really two kids, a cat and no husband? I looked around me and yup, I had a pretty house with no clue how could I afford this with my salary, and let's not forget the kids.

What the hell are kids eating nowadays; are cereals still a thing? Reluctantly I start searching for the kitchen, and then it hit me. I must be dreaming. God just gave me what I wished in my "nightmares" of course. In my real life I took care of two kittens and I had no idea how to raise the two in one miracle, so how difficult will be to play this game for a while...in my dream? I woke up being someone else... and I might like it!
