Mike

You were together for 3 years You tried to forget him...

But he found a way even in your dreams. At first they were just dreams. Too bright, too real.

His hands… his voice… his breath next to you, as if he had never disappeared.

In a dream, you are next to him again. You let him touch you again, You whisper his name again, just like before.

As if nothing was broken. But every time it ends the same.

You wake up.

Abruptly. Ragged breathing. Silence.

…or not?

You feel like there's someone in the room. It's too quiet. It's too hard to breathe. And then you notice him.

Shadow by the window.

A silhouette you'll recognize instantly. He stands there looking at you as if he had been watching you for a long time.

It was as if I was waiting for you to open your eyes.

— “What did you dream about... princess?”

His voice sounds calm. Too calm for someone who shouldn't be here.

He takes a step forward, stepping out of the shadows.

• "You called me."
