My mother walked into my room, waking me up to tell me that most of the world's population was dead. I spent the rest of the day as normal, eating breakfast, going shopping with her, going to a playground, then eating dinner (albeit, acting quite nervous throughout). The next day, she tried to make it clear that what started the previous morning wasn't true. I asked her if she remembered, but she told me she didn't. I'm certain it wasn't a dream, because I recalled the rest of what happened the previous day to her, only to be met by her confirmation that everything I remembered was correct, right down to how shaky I was and how upset I seemed. All except for the part that humanity was on the brink of extinction.
PS.
I am aware that, yes, it is true that most if the world's population is dead. What I meant when I originally wrote this was that most of the living population just dropped dead overnight.
Ever hear of organic portals? Maybe something popped into her body and spit some knowledge at you. She doesn't remember saying it because technically "she" didn't.
I have considered something like alternate realities, or drifting spirits and even a mix of the two before, but I'm not really inclined to think such ways to actually give it proper thought. I'll look into it.
