Anne: The Lost Boy

To better understand this dream, I've provided some backstory. In primary school, each class was chosen to sing/perform for the parents at PTA meetings. Each performance had a theme to it. For example, Michelle's class sang patriotic songs. My class sang songs you'd hear at a baseball game. This went on until 3rd grade but was mostly performed by the kindergarten and 1st grade classes.

 

My primary school (RPS) started posting throwback videos every Thursday on their website. Michelle and I like to watch them for the nostalgia. They post one of my kindergarten class singing at a PTA meeting. I am so excited to watch it! Instead of my actual kindergarten teacher Mrs. P, I notice that Jack Black is the one leading my class in song and dance. The production is fantastic! Jack Black is playing an acoustic guitar and each of us have different solos and harmonies. The choreography for everything is impressive for kindergartners. The girls have yellow and orange flowy dresses and the men wear green pants and blue shirts. I'm under the impression that we are supposed to all be flowers.


As amazing as the whole thing is, I'm confused. I don't have any memories at all of this performance. While obviously I can't remember every single detail of my kindergarten life, I think this is something that would stand out. I meet up with my friend DS (he was in Mrs. P's class with me in real life ❤️). I ask him if he remembers this Jack Black PTA performance and play the video for him. He also doesn't remember. We see in the background a little boy dancing and singing with us. Dream logic tells us his name is Colin. Neither one of us remembers Colin too well other than that he never came back to RPS after kindergarten. We think Colin might be the missing piece to understanding all of this. We try to look him up on facebook and figure out his whereabouts. Why this would work, I'm not sure considering we didn't know his last name or where he would be located. Dream logic to the rescue and we see he's still in the area and posted about going on a tour with some group. We set out to find him!


We sneak up to a group by the ruins of what I assume to be an ancient building in a field. We hide behind an old stone pillar. This group is listening to a tour guide discuss the history of the ruins, what each stone represents, etc. I see a boy not much taller than me. He looks like a nerdier version of Justin Bieber in his younger days. DS and I know this is Colin. He stops to take a picture while the group continues moving along the trail. DS and I run up to him. I grab his arm to get his attention. Colin remembers us for some reason and isn't alarmed that we surprised him like this. He leads us to an escalator by a cliff that leads to what looks like an old train station. There is a big chandelier with golden pillars lining the walls.

He sits us down on a bench. He tells us he does know why we can't remember our Jack Black days. Also, we were never in Mrs. P's class to begin with! Jack Black was our teacher all along. The administration hypnotized our class at the end of that year and fed us lies about what we did that year. DS and I are more confused than anything. Why would the school do this? What happened to Jack Black? Why does Colin remember and no one else? Colin says it's too dangerous to talk here. He'll only give us the information we want if I agree to go on a date with him. Obviously I don't want to do this because I'm dating Robert but I do want to know more. DS and I leave Colin and try to figure out how we can learn more without me having to go on a date with this creep. We also face the dilemma of if he's even telling the truth or not. Was this all an elaborate scheme just to get a date?
