On my way down the stairs, I saw you, stealing a few beats from my heart. I could not tell at first if you knew that I was there behind you. In the past, you would always wait on the side to get a chance for us to talk. This time you went down the stairs quickly. So, I ran after you. When I caught up with you, I realized that I was clearly underdressed for the occasion of meeting you - I wore clothes for fetching something from the grocery on a weekend, while you were really beautifully dressed, as always. That’s not even the most beautiful part of what was before me, because when finally, you looked at me, when we were face to face, I saw again the loveliest face I have ever seen.
However, I realized from how slowly you turned around to me that you were running away from me.
Perhaps, I thought, finally you were fulfilling my last wish - the one I made when we realized our time together would not last. Perhaps, this time, you chose not to linger. Perhaps finally, you’ve let me go.
Before either of us could say anything, you vanished, and soon I woke up. It felt like a full night’s sleep, although it had only been 2 hours since I slept at 3am.
Its’ been some time since I last dreamt of you. It was wonderful seeing you again.
