I dreamed a guy was trying to kidnap me. I was at church. My mom and my sister were there. The guys was in his older black chevy car. He hesitated at first. Then he got out. There was a bike over close to me. So I ran and hid behind it. He saw me. I was guarding myself with the bike. The I darted over to church ran inside and asked to use the phone because someone was outside trying to hurt someone. I felt a little freaked. I was thinking "I've got to get out of here." |
