"Why did you wear the wedding dress?" He asked me.
"It's a long story." I said.
"Okay." He said, not wanting me to feel uncomfortable.
"What about you?" I asked. " Why did you come here?"
"Long story," he said, with a warm smile.
I smiled back.
"Do you want to see something?" He asked me, with a glint in his eyes. He was up to something.
"Okay." I said not sure of where he would take me.
"Follow me." He said.
I followed him wondering where he would take me.
We finally reached a meadow.
"A meadow." I whispered.
"That's not it." He replied. " We have to go further."
We walked more.
"Now I'm going to shut your eyes." He said.
I shut my eyes.
I opened my eyes and saw a flower garden. It was the most beautiful garden I had ever seen.
There were Daisies, sun flowers, water lilies and lotus growing in a small pond in one corner. There were shoe flowers too.
My eyes finally turned to the rose patch.
The pink rose which Adam had given me on my 16th birthday, the red rose which Adam had given me when he proposed me and finally the white rose.
I had been holding a bouquet of white roses on the wedding day.
I remembered the wedding.
I remembered the dream.
"Um Zoesha?" He asked me. "Are you alright?"
"What happened?" I asked him.
"You were day dreaming first. Then you walked towards the rose patch and fell on top of it."
I had walked without knowing.
What was happening to me?
"Really?" I said. "I'm so clumsy!"
"Yeah." He said, doubtingly.
He then picked a few flowers.
"What do you need those for?" I asked.
"For my house of course!" He said.
I really thought he lived on a tree or something.
"Come on." He said. "I'm taking you  to my home!"
I followed him, not knowing what I would see next.
