Dreaming in Digital

A few of my friends and I were in a van, and we stopped at a parking lot that had a bunch of people, and celebrities (around five of them, much like F4). Cookie wanted to sit in the van still. He didn't feel like going out, but I left to go explore. One of the celebrities (the group's playboy) invited me into his van. There were a few other people inside, and his friend. We sat there talking and laughing until the door opened, and Cookie pulled me out. He looked kind of angry and unhappy. The celebrity handed me two boxes before Cookie and I left them. We stopped at an area of the parking lot with a picnic table, a few cars, and a small gang (think of a motorcycle gang) about 9 people. We sat on the table, and he slouched, crossed his arms on the table as if he was thinking. I decided to open the boxes. I can't remember what was in the first box, but the second box had a few coloured Easter eggs. I opened one of them, and when I lifted it up, I felt a windup key on the bottom. I wound it up and it played an unfamiliar but sweet tune. It was happy, and sounded like the *.mid files I used to listen to from Japanese sites. It was melodic and made me 'see the sunny side of spring' in its music box chimes. I showed it to him as if I were a child, and he kissed me on the forehead and showed me a faint smile. I smiled back at him.

The gang behind us started circling us, and Cookie stood up. This felt familiar to me. It seems like the gang leader asked where did we get 'this', and pointed towards me. I didn't understand until I looked down and one of the boxes said 'PSP'. Cookie said nothing still, but pointed directly forward where across the street, there were a few old stores (like on Queen street); one being an electronic store luckily. The leader signaled three of his guys to go check the store out, but we were still surrounded. The music box kept playing. The camera angle rotated a full 360 and came back, and instead of Cookie, standing in his place was my dad.
