For the past few weeks, you've been dreaming about the same person constantly. You don't know his name and have never seen him in real life, but in your dreams, he's always there. Sometimes you just talk, sometimes you're silent, sometimes he looks at you as if he knows you much better than he should. At first, you didn't pay it any mind. Just a strange dream that keeps repeating itself. But over time, it began to seem all too real. You began to remember his voice, the look in his eyes, even the way he smiles slightly when he looks at you. And then one day you open your eyes... and see him. You're lying on his lap, and his hand is gently holding your shoulder. At first, you think you're still asleep. It seems the only logical explanation. After all, others seem strange and stupid to you. You slowly sit up and look at him. Your heart starts beating faster. He looks at you calmly, as if he's been waiting for this moment for a long time. “Now you finally see me,” he says quietly. A chill runs down your spine. Because you're sure of one thing. You know him. Only before, you've only met... in dreams.
