I saw Frank in Sainsbury’s. I ducked behind an aisle quickly and told dad. I said to wait for a little bit we didn’t and he dragged me to the till where he was on the one next to me. I waved, and dad shouted “Aren’t you gonna wave?” I looked at him, furiously embarrassed. Went back to school after the summer holidays and everybody was really shocked that I was back, saying I’d spent weeks away. There were new people in form, new seating plan, even my bullies didn’t annoy me because I’d supposedly been away for so long. I played along but was really confused. As I sat down, my form tutor texted me and said that she’d called a therapist for me during the day and to take it easy. I was so confused and a little nervous, trying to think of an excuse as to why I wasn’t in. I was sick? I ended up in this big grassy countryside place with mum and this therapist guy, I played along but as he turned his back I turned to mum very concerned and said “But I didn’t miss a day did I?” She said it might be because we decided against going on a Scottish school trip over the holidays, which was weird because it was optional. I had seen it on satchel one but I thought that couldn’t be it. But it was. I went right and reached this wooden shelter with a few school friends. The next morning I was in a different house to usual, I left thinking I was late and ran but forgot everything. So I ran back, saw Frank and didn’t know where my badge and lunch would be, so I followed everybody into this big cathedral with Frank and his friend, there was a pile of bags by the big round stairs next to the door, as I looked through, Vander said “what are you doing with my mums bag? These aren’t yours?” So I went back out and to my house, got my stuff and left, thinking I was late, but Frank was walking calmly with his friend.
This dream may symbolize feelings of confusion, embarrassment, and a sense of disconnection from familiar surroundings. Seeing Frank in Sainsbury's and hiding from him behind an aisle could represent a desire to avoid a certain person or situation in waking life. Telling your dad and his insistence on waving at Frank might reflect potential feelings of pressure or embarrassment from authority figures. The aspect of returning to school and everyone being shocked may suggest a sense of being out of touch or feeling like an outsider. The mention of a therapist and confusion about why you weren't present at school may symbolize a subconscious desire for understanding and support during a challenging time. The scene in the grassy countryside with the therapist and your mother could signify a need for emotional guidance and support. Forgetting everything as you run back to your house and encountering Frank calmly walking with his friend may represent feeling overwhelmed and out of sync with others who seem more composed or at ease in their actions. Overall, this dream may point to feelings of confusion, disorientation, and the need for support and reassurance.
