The chase

My general recollection of this dream is somewhat fuzzy, but what I have recorded here is what I remember.

In this dream, I recall being in the queue in some kind of shop .  The guy behind the counter had a misanthropic attitude and seemed to hate everyone.  When I got to the front of the queue, I started talking to him and was able to get past the hateful exterior to see his was actually quite a sensitive guy whose attitude was just a defence mechanism against being hurt.

When I got outside, I noticed that my girlfriend and a friend of hers had been waiting for me a little way up the road.  I started to walk towards them and my girlfriend proceeded to run up the road.  I just figured she was in a hurry to get home, so I didn't bother chasing her.  When I turned the corner, she was still running, so I called out, asking her to slow down.  She shouted back "No!".

I carried on walking, and continued up a hill.  Once I got to the top, I saw her talking to an older guy and she was pointing at me.  She then went and stood on the other side of the road as the guy came over to ask for directions (apparently my girlfriend had told him that I would know where he was trying to get to).  However, I wasn't in the mood, I wanted to get home and wanted to know why my girlfriend kept running off, so I slowed down time, struck the man in the chest and knocked him out.  (I wasn't trying to hurt him, I just wanted him out of the way, and thought that slowing down time would stop my girlfriend from running away).

After doing this, I went over to my girlfriend and noticed something on the floor by her feet.  It was a blood bag, the type you get in hospitals.  The bag was leaking, and blood and spilling onto the road.  On the bag was a note that said a person called Andrea Pisci had been banned from the shop I was just in for trying to send fraudulent mail abroad.  It turns out that in the dream, this Andrea Pisci person was my girlfriend's real name (which is not the case IRL), which suggested she had been lying to me all this time and wasn't who I though she was.  I was quite shocked by this sudden revelation, but then I woke up.

There was some strange, haunting music playing in the dream at this point just before I woke.
