ex-felon, grandma, and robots

I'm at my "house" and I'm with my maternal grandmother. For some reason, we have an ex-felon in our house and he has to spend the night at our house due to some judge's orders.

In one room, the ex-felon is sleeping on the same bed as my grandma while my mom and someone else is sleeping on another bed. I have to sleep outside in the living room. I'm extremely concerned about what this ex-felon will do to my grandma when we all go to sleep. I go into their room and tell my mom really loudly, on purpose so that this ex-felon can hear me, that I'm a light sleeper so I probably won't be going to sleep all night. This is a lie so that the ex-felon knows I'll be up if he tries anything. I tell my grandma that I love her in Laotian and she begins to cry.. she gets emotional because I've never told her this.

Night time comes, and they all fall asleep. I try my best not to fall asleep. And then morning comes and the ex-felon didn't do anything. I feel relieved but realize he has to stay with us for the entire week so I have to keep staying awake at night.

I go into the garage arguing with my sister about something and 2 human robots come out of nowhere. I have a baseball bat and I struggle trying to hit one of them so that he stops coming towards me. It doesn't work. He also has a baseball bat, but a softer one, and he hits me back. It actually really hurts. I try to swing hard at him but it's slow motion so it doesn't even hurt him at all. I get out of his way and he comes into the house. I try to hide him from my parents in the kitchen. He listens to me because all he wants to do is be free and get out. I try to get to the kitchen door to lead him to outside but my mom comes in before I'm able to do so.

And then... I wake up.
