The Mover: Episode V

            He had been lying on his bed—staring at the ceiling for hours already. He couldn’t sleep. The funny thing was that he was awake for two days straight and now that he has finally decided to relax, he feels restless. He was troubled about what Ava said to him earlier. He didn’t even believe her until she took out a pen from her pocket and directed him to do the impossible. He refused at first, but he eventually did. The moment that pen moved by itself, he just couldn’t take it. He didn’t know whether it was some trick of sorts, or whether it actually even happened. He thought his mind was playing tricks on him considering his feeling of fatigue. He thought maybe this dilemma was all just a dream and that the moment that he would fall asleep, he would wake back up in the real world. But he knew that this was as real as it gets.
