Dream

​I am in some kind of office or hospital, helping with an event. Other people are around. Someone asks me to get a tray of food and start serving.

I go into a small room where there’s a pink dress for me to change into. I put it on, pick up the tray, and come back out. We notice that some people arrive but leave almost immediately.

I see a small boy come in about fifteen, Japanese. He walks across the room toward a balcony in the back.

On the balcony, there’s a sawing machine on the floor. The boy says he doesn’t want to live anymore and is thinking about throwing himself into the machine.

I feel anxious and look for a doctor. I find one who looks Japanese and tell him, but suddenly the doctor is a Black woman. She doesn’t seem very concerned and says she’ll talk to the boy, but she’s in no hurry. I feel the urge to go bring him inside myself, but I’m afraid he could hurt us both, and I’m worried about breaking the rules.
