When a dream catches you

Miss Jackson gives Freddy a dreamcatcher and he starts dreaming of making money so that he can impress Abigail. Dreamcatcher is the story of the trials of a young entrepreneur.

Extract from Dreamcatcher

It was dark when I returned. The Maltese was safe with her owner. Nobody saw me. I didn’t meet anyone I knew.

Everything was fine. I think. Except that I was no closer to making my dreams come true than before. I didn’t know how.

Martin sniffed me from head to toe when I returned. I suppose he wanted to make sure that I hadn’t betrayed him with other dogs too. But he needn’t have worried.

Ma didn’t say anything. She just took my food out of the oven and gave it to me.

Later that evening I lay stretched out on my bed and listened if I could hear the little shells of miss Jackson’s dreamcatcher tingling in the wind. I couldn’t, because it wasn’t there any more. I had dumped it in the garage. I heard Robbie’s bakkie going by and I wondered if someone was with him.
