“Dear Dream Momma, I was babysitting my little sister. I went to the kitchen to make breakfast and I see the sink and counter were covered of ants. I didn't have a spray to kill them and I said to my sister I'll go to the next door neighbor to get the ant killer and will be right back. When I got back, there were no ants to be found. The sink and counter were clean. I turn around to find my sister and I see this "crazy" like man behind me looking at me. I asked him "where is my sister" and he said nothing. He just ignored me and was walking away. I went after him screaming, 'Where is my sister, what did you do to her, where did you take her?' but he kept walking towards the street.
"I started screaming for the neighbors to hear me and call 911. 'My sister disappeared, this man did something to her…' No one was in a hurry to help me. Everyone was just looking at me. I am in the middle of the street when I see an ambulance. I stop them and tell them this man is a criminal you have to stop him. They ignored me also. I go back to the neighbors who gave me the ant killer spray and told them. They were a couple of men who offered to come to the house and search for my sister. They came and they seemed scared. One of them looked at a huge barrel I had inside the house, he opened it and it was dusty but empty. These men were afraid to move and look for my sister. My feelings were panic and yelling but no one listened to me. I was in agony to find my sister in the entire dream but no one seemed to want to help.” (sic)
