Dark. It's so dark. I can't see anything. I don't even know where I am. And why does it feels so heavy.
"Hello?!" I tried to speak out loud but yet no one is listening.
I heard a heavy footsteps coming behind me. It feel so strange.
I immediately turn around as soon as I felt him behind me. Then the lights were turn on. We're in a small room. I'm standing at the edge of the bed with a man standing in front of me.
He's smiling but I can see the pain living in his eyes.
"I miss you my love" he whispered and was about to kiss my forehead but I push him. I don't know him.
Tears are now visible on his eyes.
"I will always love you forever" he whispered then tears started falling down on his cheeks.
He slowly held my face trying not to scare me and then memories keep flashing through my mind.
I felt dizzy and my head are throbbing in pain. My knees trembled and I suddenly fell on the floor while still holding my head.
"Ahhhh" I can't bear the pain. I cried very loud as it keeps on hurting.
I feel my body weakens and before I lost my consciousness I heard a loud bang that causes the man to fell on the floor.
The loud bang woke me up. I'm breathing very rapidly as I woke up from my sleep. Fuck, it was a dream. But, what was that?
I lay down in my bed again and started to think about the guy. I can't recognize his face but his presence makes me feel secure and love. I still feel the warmth of his hand on my face.
My heart is aching thinking about him. I push him and I know that he's hurt about what I did.
It's like I know him but can't even recognize him.
The alarm clock brings me back to my senses. Oh my gosh, I'm going to be late now.
I immediately got out of my bed and took a bath.
I open the shower and let my mind relax. The water cools my mind. But then, I heard some footsteps that got me goosebumps.
I'm living alone in my apartment. And that footsteps scared the shit out of me.
I rapidly finish my shower and wrap my body with a towel. As soon as I go out of the bathroom, I notice the paper on my side table right beside my bed.
I walked closer to it and realized that it's a letter.
Oh gosh, someone sneak into my apartment again. I should've bought a much better lock for my door.
I open the letter and it's from an unknown sender.
Dear Lythiana,
Hi Love, I'm glad that you're doing fine all these years that I'm not with you. I'm still in pain now knowing that you can't be mine forever. You forgot about about us, you forgot about me. I will forever cherish the memories we had together even though you can't remember it. I'm sorry about everything. I still believe in forever my love but I guess the word forever is not for us. I love you very much my love. I hope to see you soon.
Love,
Unknown
Tears keep falling on my cheeks as I read the letter. I don't even know why I'm crying but all I know is that my heart is throbbing in pain.
The people I only knew are my family, friends and my co-workers. As much as I remember, I don't have a lover.
My phone suddenly rings. Oh shit, I'm late. My co-worker called me asking where am I.
I rapidly prepared myself for work. I got my things and make sure that my room is lock before going out from my apartment.
I didn't bother to eat. My work is much more important now cause I got no money left. I still have to pay for my debts and I need to go shopping.
My manager keep yelling at me as soon as I arrived at the office. I'm working as a sales clerk of a xerox machine company.
"I told you to not get late today because we have an emergency meeting to attend, and you will be the representative" she said as we walk through the hallway of the office.
"Prepare your presentation" she added as soon as we arrived at the conference room.
The presentation took a while but It's a success so our manager decided to
treat us for dinner.
"Congratulations team and specially to you Lythiana" our manager said.
That makes me proud of myself. Atleast, I made a little achievement.
We decided to go at the restaurant at 7 pm and ordered as soon as we arrived.
The restaurant is kinda simple but a class end view. The ceiling are filled with a beautiful chandeliers. The restaurant are a round place. The middle is the counter that forms a round shape.
We were eating very peacefully when someone on the other table caught my attention.
He's eating alone and maybe he felt my intense stare, he then looked through my eyes. I feel hypnotized just by staring at his eyes.
He's wearing a color black button down sleeves. And just by staring through his body, you can see that he has a broad shoulder and a muscular body.
His face are perfect. Hooded eyes, sharp nose and jawline and a red heart shape lips.
One snap brings me back to my senses.
"Hey, Lythiana you're spacing out" my co-worker Jill said.
"Oh I'm sorry" I apologized as I continue to eat.
I looked again at the man but suddenly he's gone. What I see now is a family. Fuck, am I hallucinating?
But I swear I really saw a man who has a tantalizing yet hypnotizing eyes looking at me.
We finished our food and started chitchatting about a random topic. And suddenly a question came out of my mouth.
"Hey did you ever had a dream about a man that feels like it's real?" I asked out of nowhere.
"Uhm no but someone said to me that 50% of our dreams are real" Anthony said while drinking through his glass of wine.
"Why, do you have a dream like that?" Hazel our manager asked.
"Uhm no ma'am hehe nevermind" I said.
But what if it's true?
What if my dreams are real?
What about the letter?
Wait....
The man in my dreams and the man a while ago has the same built. But no it can't be possible, I don't even know him.
Oh geesh I'm overthinking and hallucinating again.
A memory suddenly flash through my mind.
I am sitting on a bench at the park. Someone is hugging me from behind while his chin are resting on my shoulder.
"You smell very nice Love" he complimented my scent as he continues to sniff my neck.
I chuckled.
"And your smell is kinda fusty" I teased him as I played with his fingers.
"No, I don't smell bad" he pouted.
"Because If I smell bad you wouldn't like me nor love me" he continued with a smirk on his face.
This man is really full of himself.
I admit he really smells very nice.
"Baby, I love you very much" he whispered huskily on my ears while his chin still resting on my shoulder.
"I love you too" I said then kiss his fingers one by one.
I looked at him and notice that he's getting red.
"Oh my handsome baby is blushing" I teased him while laughing.
He hugs me tight and put his face on my neck. He's shy.
My head suddenly hurts and I feel dizzy. It's throbbing in pain again.
"Hey, Lythiana are you okay?!" I hear a voice.
Then the pain stops.
"Hey, Lythiana are you okay?!" Jill asked as he continue to tap me.
I came back to my senses.
"Oh gosh, yeah I'm okay. It's just my head hurts a little" I said with a glimpse of smile.
What was that? Is it one of my memory? Or is it even a memory? But who is he?
