Navigating Fear and Old Connections in Your Dream

I was running up my apartment stairs to avoid a Nextdoor neighbor I’m afraid of. While running up the endless stairs frantically, I can hear the neighbor talking to another female friend of hers. I end up hiding on the outside of the stairs guard rail to eavesdrop. When they two women get to the top of the stairs, I find it’s an old friend I had a bad falling out with long ago, turns out she’s interviewing for a graphic design job. Then interviewer starts talking to her about how bad her art is, which makes me yell. They realize on hanging on the outer edge of the railing and they don’t care, as I yell about the interviewer being blind and stupid to the old friends art. The old friend ends up being mad at me with my actions and I am left terrified as the interviewer starts making me feel dumb as they discuss their art credentials
