All Chapters of Onerea: The City of Dreams: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

The kiss had allowed them a way out. The geography had changed, as Dominik thought. It was a resource he had never used, but Annabelle didn't know that, and it hurt her and enraged her that her first kiss had been that way.It was not a bad reason. Saving yourself from a monster in a dream qualified as a good reason for her. Still, she hoped it was not the only reason why he did it, but she doubted so much.In her mind, there were more and worse monsters than the ones she had seen so far in the cave, and more than the weird, tall man that was walking towards them. Who could want a girl that was broken?And it hurt. Badly.Domi had no idea, of course, of those dark thoughts in her head. He could just notice her pouting from time to time, then frowning and then looking angry, and that worried him.It was partly because the place they were at would show all that was making the changes in her face.He just hoped that it didn't show

Belle didn't know what to do. The exact same fear that she was having to trust this guy that she just met was the one that made the mirror what it was.If Annabelle trusted him, and it was just a trick to get out of the mirror? But no, in her mind, there was more than that. She didn't like to lose people, so she didn't have anyone around. That was the puzzle for that mirror.Dominik thought the solution was to offer himself as a stability point for her to hold on to. She didn't know who he really was or how real was his offering.Now that Dom made up his mind to help her, he was not going to tell her where he came from or how would he manage to do what he promised? She would have to trust his word, and he was not sure if she would.On the other side, she was thinking about the many scenarios that, in her mind, could happen. It went from the absurd to the impossible.At some point, she had the thought that it was her bad luck, and that thought was not completely gone from her mind.She

Geoffrey came back home to his wife. She was still in the same place he left her, reading the newspaper. "Oh, my dear, you're back so soon," she said. "Was it eventful?"If he didn't know her, he would have been angry or at least bothered to see that she was so cold about matters. Instead, he kissed her head and hugged her tightly.Not only because he had good news, but for how much he knew she was holding on inside her and couldn't let out.There were some nights in which, thinking that her husband was sleeping, she cried. And he didn't even move because if he did, she would compose herself and never let out all the pain she held to keep the appearance and keep her family together.She was tough, but still, there were times in which she broke. And he couldn't even hold her. That was one of the reasons why when they were in their waking hours, he was sweet and comprehensive with his wife.She thought more than once that her husband had

Myron got back on his feet and walked all the way to receive their visitor."Belle Cat!!! We were talking about cats... and bells. It's good to see that you're still alive and well after your tour with our dear Dominik.""Alive?" She said with a puzzled look, "Was I supposed to die with him?""Well, more like... we thought you might end up killing each other. The way you were getting not-so along the last time we saw you... We tried to help you a little with that, but we're still to know if we succeeded.""Oh, I see. Well, I think you did." "Why is that, Belle Cat?" Asked Raquel, curiouser."Because he and I made a pact. I hope he will do his part. And also, I now hope he doesn't get me killed," Belle said with a stare that went together with a heart-melting smirk towards our very favorite shy guy.Dominik smiled and blushed just a little, enough for his surrogate siblings to keep it in mind until the end of times and make jokes

There was this group of people, way before, when we got a lot of visitors. Some people found friends or even family here because it seemed like people believed more in places like these, but at some point, they stopped.Anyway, one day this girl arrived. She came to the store, as you did. I was a teenager, so I noticed how pretty she was and how sad I felt her.She moved around the store, trying clothing and laughing, but she didn't feel happy to me.She came with just one friend of hers, one she called "sister," but was surrogate, just like my siblings are.I overheard them talking about going to the mirrors. I mentioned to Raq, who was in charge of equipping visitors, just as she did with you, but when she saw that girl, she was worried. "I don't think you should go into the mirror, Pretty Cat," she told her,"Why not?" she answered with a puzzled smile. "Because you're too sad. You might be in danger if you go in like t
