The Start of a Brand New Day

Unending BE - episode 2

A swirly cloud of something that looked like fog filled the room, and then faded into the night. A man lay sleeping in a bed, covers pulled up to his chin. The clock next to him showed "6:59", then quietly flipped to "7:00" and began to beep.

Jim was asleep, and right in the middle of a very exciting dream, when the loud beeping of the alarm woke him up. He blinked his eyes a few times, rolled over and turned off the alarm. He lay there in bed for a moment, remembering what he was supposed to do today. Whatever it was, it had to be better than yesterday, he thought - today is a brand new day!

After laying there quietly for a moment, Jim:

1. *remembered it was his girlfriend's birthday.
2. *decided to go back to sleep to try to get back into his dream.
3. *heard his mother telling him he was going to be late for school.
4. *suddenly realized he wasn't alone in his bed.
5. *became aware that he didn't know where he was.
