i slowly opened my eyes , only to be greeted the same sight as last night , except that he wasn ' t here . the petals from the dream before still were on the ground . wait , this can ' t be a dream . it is impossible to dream of the same dream twice consecutively , right ?

i panicked , looking around in desperation as if to confirm my theory , the sound of my heartbeat thumping away in my head . okay , thinking of it logically , if it is a dream , i wouldn ' t be able to fully control my thoughts and actions , but it almost seemed as if i was fully awake right now . i pouted , obviously rather confused , my chest feeling tighter out of the anxiousness . was there a way to get out of here ? i pinched myself once , only to quickly wince after that . yep , definitely not a dream .

the soft sounds of footsteps made my ears perk up ,  making me more alert as the sound neared after every second .  is it going to be him ?  i slowly turned around ,  to face the one and only person who can make my heart skip a beat ,  the only person who reminds me that i ' m loved .

" w - what is this ? "  i finally asked ,  breaking the silence ,  though my voice was no more than a hoarse whisper .  " i missed you . "  he murmured ,  raising both of his hands as if to hold mine before letting it drop back to his sides .  i stayed quiet ,  looking down at my feet while trying to keep in the tears that slowly flooded my vision ,  blurring it in the process .  never will i ever let him see me cry .

after a few moments of silence ,  i finally looked up ,  opening my mouth to say something but by then ,  he was gone .
