Anan, a young working man, is predicted by his younger sister, May, to face three major misfortunes. She gives him magic incense sticks to burn before going to bed. To see a vision in a dream
That night, Anant dreams of a frightening future. He woke up in a panic. Try to avoid bad luck at all costs. Until becoming paranoid about everything
When life gets chaotic Anant must choose between fear and facing his fate. What end would that incense bring him to?
Incense smoke floats in the darkness. Light fragrance Its things made Anan feel calm. He sat cross-legged.
His eyes stared at the tiny flame at the end of the incense stick, and the picture in front of him slowly blurred...
Anant opened his eyes again. He found himself standing in a familiar office. bright neon lights The sound of computer typing and talking could be heard.
"P'Anan," a sweet, clear voice sounded from behind.
He turned to look, meeting May's bright face. My younger sister who just came to work recently
“Is something wrong, May?” Anant asked.
“Are you free? May would like to ask for some advice,” she said, smiling shyly.
Anant nodded. The two walked to sit in the coffee corner. May took out a tarot card from her bag.
“Did you know that May likes fortune telling?” she said, unfolding the cards on the table. “May is practicing card reading. Can P'Anan help me be an exercise for May?"
Anant smiled, "Sure, but I've never seen a fortune teller before."
"nevermind May will try to predict it for you.” She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. before opening the cards one by one
May's expression changed. Her eyes widened in shock.
"What's wrong, May?" Anant asked with concern.
"P'Anan..." she said in a trembling voice. “The card says that you will face three great misfortunes.”
Anan laughed, “Oh May, these are just cards. Don't be alarmed just yet.”
But May still had a serious expression on her face. “P'Anan, listen to May. This is not a joke. May felt a strange energy around me.”
Anant began to feel uncomfortable. "So what will May have you do?"
May searched for something in her bag. She took out a small incense stick.
“Here, magic incense stick,” she handed it to Anan. “Tonight, before going to bed. Let me light this incense stick. Then make a wish You will see a vision in your dreams. It will help you know what you need to be careful of.”
Anant hesitantly took the incense sticks. “May, are you sure? I think it's a bit ignorant."
"P'Anan, please believe May." May held Anan's hand tightly. "May is worried about you."
That night, Anant sat on the bed in the bedroom. He looked at the incense in his hand. Thinking about May's words.
“Never mind, it won't hurt to give it a try,” he muttered to himself.
Anant lit some incense sticks, placed them on the incense holder, and closed his eyes. The fragrant smoke floated throughout the room. He felt drowsy...
The first image Anan saw was a road at night. He was driving home. It was raining heavily and the road was slippery. A car suddenly crashed into the side. The world spun, and the sound of twisting metal sounded loud.
In the next picture, Anant sees himself lying in a hospital bed. My whole body hurts. Doctors said he was lucky to survive.
Scene changes: Anant is standing in the office. The boss called him in to talk. Said the company had to lay off employees because of the economic crisis. Anan was laid off.
The last picture is Anant sitting in a dark room. He felt lonely and hopeless. Pick up a bottle of liquor and drink it. Tears flowed down my cheeks.
Anant woke up, his heart pounding, his body sweating. He looked around the room. Everything is the same. Nothing has changed.
“Just a dream, just a dream,” he tried to console himself. But the images seen in the dream were still as clear as if they had actually just happened.
The next day, Anan rushed to see May at the office. Tell her about your dreams.
"You have to be careful," May said in a serious tone. “This is a warning from the universe. You must find a way to avoid these events.”
since then Anant became wary of every step. He drove carefully. Avoid going out at night. Try to work harder to avoid getting fired. and never touch alcoholic beverages again
But the more I try to avoid it He felt even more stressed and anxious. Anant couldn't sleep. Paranoid of people around you Afraid that everything will fall apart.
May notices Anan's change. She felt guilty for making him suffer.
“P'Anan,” May said one day. “May, I think we forgot something.”
“What is it, May?” Anant asked with a weary expression.
“We forget that life is a journey. Not the destination,” May said with a gentle smile. “Maybe what I saw in my dream wasn't a prophecy. But it can be a lesson.”
Anant thought. “I don't understand. What does that mean?”
“Think about it. Accidents teach us to be careful. Being fired teaches us to improve ourselves. Loneliness teaches us to love ourselves,” May explains. “Instead of being afraid, We should learn and grow from it.”
May's words made Anan feel like he had woken up from a trance. He just realized that he was too obsessed with fear. Until you forget to live happily
"You're right May," Anant smiled, feeling relieved for the first time in weeks. “Thank you for reminding me.”
That night, Anant slept soundly for the first time in a long time. He dreamed that he was walking on a sandy beach, the sky was clear, and the blue sea stretched as far as the eye could see. He felt calm and happy.
But then Anant woke up. He looked around the room. Everything looks strange This isn't his bedroom. It is a Buddha room in the house. Anant came to meditate in the early evening.
The truth hit him like a tidal wave. Anan realized that he had never known a woman named May. Never lit magic incense. Never saw any visions.
Everything is just a dream A dream as serious and long as real life.
Anan laughed softly. He felt relieved. But at the same time, I felt fear in my heart and felt more conscious than before.
