An ILLUSIVE Haven

19. Dream

"Sweetie, come here ah." A beautiful woman can be seen calling a little girl who was playing with the water.

The little girl turned and gave her a cute smile and said,
"Coming, Mommy"

She ran to the beautiful woman. In her cute frock and pigtails she looked so cute.

"Slow down" the beautiful woman said worriedly to the running little girl.

The little girl hugged her mother and smiled at her.

The beautiful woman smiled and warmly smoothened her hair. She said,
"I brought a gift for you"
"Here, Do you like this clip?"

The little girl saw it and exclaimed,
"Wow! Lavender butterfly. It's so pretty"

The beautiful woman smiled. She put on the clip on the little girls hair and said,
"My baby is so pretty"

The little girl giggled and said,
"No Mommy, you are pretty"

Her mother smiled and said,
"I want to be happy like this always"

Suddenly the scene Infront the little girl faded.

The little girl couldn't see her mother anywhere she shouted,
"Mommy! Mommy! Where are you?"

No matter how she searched she couldn't find her. She couldn't feel her warmth or her warm smile. She cried so much.

...
Gin woke up startled by the sound of sobbing from his side.

He looked over and saw Sandy curled up and crying but she didn't seem like she was awake.

Gin heard her mumble,
"Mommy! Mommy! " Continuously.
He looked at her  crying face felt a pang in his heart.

"Little kitty, are you having bad dreams" saying that he slowly placed his hand on her and patted a little.

Sandy who was in the dream felt a burst of warmth and calmed down. She then fell into deep sleep slowly.
Gin saw this and smiled a little.

"Little kitty, don't be afraid. I'm here" he continued to pat her slowly.

Gin looking at her tear stained face and thought - why do I find myself attracted to you more and more.

Thinking that he'll disturb her he stopped and just as he was going to retract his hand Gin saw Sandy caught his hand.

Gin saw this and smiled. Seeing that she didn't want to let go of his hand Gin let it be and went into sleep.
.....
Sandy woke up by chirping of birds from the window outside.

She opened her eyes drowsily and felt like she was holding onto something.

Sandy looked down and saw it was a hand with beautiful slender fingers.

She confusedly looked to the side and saw Gin sleeping peacefully and thought
"oh it's Gin."

She then suddenly sat up and thought,
"What! Gin! Why am I holding his hands? AHH! What happened"

Sandy totally lost her sleepiness. She pondered on what happened yesterday and remembering last night's dream her eyes turned misty.

Sandy composed her and rubbing her face and thought - I must've been tired so much. So, the warmth I felt must be from Gin.

Sandy looked at him with a complicated gaze. She saw him deeply.

Looking at his handsome face and long eyelashes she sighed and thought,
"No wonder, there are many girls falling head over heels for him"

She said in a low voice,
"If only he can be like this all day"

"Ah, all day keep on trying to irritate just like a kid"
