If Covid was Really a Dream

         At  that  moment  I  wore  the  largest  and  happiest

         smile of all time until I heard a knock on my room

         door. It was my mom. “My mom?” I thought.


         “Ray,  you  need  to  wake  up.  There  is  no  school

         because  of  COVID-19  and  we  can  hardly  be

         anywhere.  We  will  need  to  pick  up  as  much

         groceries as we can because we are not sure how
         long this will last.”



         I  was  shocked!  This  thing  was  real  and  my

         superpowers were just a dream.



         Mom  and  I  went  to  pick  up  the  groceries  and
         everything  seemed  very  scary  with  all  the  people

         wearing masks. I had  never seen all those people

         waiting to enter the   supermarket. After hours of

         waiting,  we  had  to  rush  home  before  the  curfew

         hours began.


         A  few  months  after,  I  was  over-excited  when  my

         country  was  declared  COVID-free  and  almost

         everything was back to normal.
