I’m in bed. Everything is calm and quiet. Then suddenly… my foot starts to itch. At first, it’s just a little tickle. But quickly, it grows—stronger, sharper, impossible to ignore. The itch spreads like fire across my foot. I scratch the bottom, then the top, the sides, between my toes—everywhere. I press, rub, dig my nails in. For a moment, it feels better. But only for a moment. The itch comes back, worse than before. My foot won’t stop burning. I toss and turn, desperate for relief. It’s so strong, it makes me want to scream. No matter how much I scratch, it never goes away. I can’t rest. I can’t think. It’s just me and the itch. Then—suddenly—I wake up. I sit up, breathing hard. My feet are fine. No itch. No burning. Just a dream. I smile a little, relieved… but I still check my foot. Just in case. 3rd pov.
