I was woken up by a strange sound. I saw something moving by my window. I was terrified and ran downstairs. I found my mom in the kitchen, getting my brother ready for school.
"Mum, did you hear anything? I, uh. I thought I saw an alien."
"Are you all right? Just a dream ! "Mum answered.
Then I went back to my room. As I walked to the window, I cried, I saw a little alien, no more than three feet tall, with big and black eyes.

I felt a terrible sense of nothingness and fainted (晕倒). Then I woke up.

From then on, I always dreamt about aliens and all the dreams felt so real. At that time, I really thought maybe I had some kind of relationship with aliens.
