It all started one faithful day. Koishi had been working on a painting for half a day now, but he can't seem to pinpoint what could be missing on it. After realizing it was late he decides to go to bed so he can wake up in time for his shift.

After experiencing insomnia, he had been taking sleeping pills so he could sleep soundly. Maybe he had taken a little too much that day, but that still didn't explain why today's dream was strange, atleast stranger than usual. He met a man, the person was quiet but he was captivating even for Koishi's standards. He wanted to ask for his name but before he could mutter any words, he woke up.

He felt strange, his heart was beating fast, but the person in his dream wasn't particularly different from any other person his mind could come up with. But he couldn't get over the feeling. He decided to write about it in his dream journal. His friend, Liam, had suggested he start a dream journal to maybe use as inspiration for his work. He wrote down the way the person slowly turned around and smiled at him. But when he was about to describe his face, he couldn't recall any features.

After a while of starring at the journal he decided to paint the person, maybe he would remember what his face looked like. The figure was slim, hair a little overgrown, he was also quite pale. But when he came to the face he couldn't remember. He tried painting on faces that would match his body but no matter what he put it wasn't right.

He didn't feel the same as when he looked at the person in his dream,he was about to start over for the tenth time when Liam called him asking where he was cause their shift was about to start, Koishi rushed to get ready taking one more glance at the unfinished painting before leaving for work .

Koishi couldn't take his mind off of the guy in his dream he dosen't know why he keeps thinking of someone who isn't even real, after getting back home he looks back to his journal to see if he can remember anything else to no avail.

Koishi: why can't I remember his face? I don't like this feeling, maybe I'll just distract myself. I haven't seen my site in a while. (where he posts his paintings)

Maybe I'll check the comments..
