Mr. Dream Boy

She dreamt of a perfect man and soon started seeing and happily spending time with him in her dreams every night.

But is she being delusional when she meets someone and starts seeing and feeling like he's that guy in her dreams?

~~~~~

Meet Caitlyn, a 25-year-old woman who works as a concierge in a mall and lives alone in her apartment but has never felt lonely at all. Ikaw ba naman ang makapanaginip ng isang perfect na lalaki gabi-gabi!

Isang araw kasi, she dreamed about a guy who seems to be her soulmate. He was faceless but by the looks of his physique, she was sure he was handsome. But aside from that, she kind of feels safe and comfortable every time he visits her in her dreams.

He hugs her. He comforts her. He shows and makes her feel things that could make her laugh and feel at ease. He was there for her. But, every time she wakes up in the morning, she will also be back into reality. He's perfect, but he only exists in her dreams.

Kadalasan ay kikiligan siya pero minsan ay hindi niya rin maiwasang hindi malungkot at mapaiyak na lang. Napapatanong kung bakit gabi-gabi siya nitong dinadalaw at hindi nito pinapakita sa kanya ang mukha. Pero sa loob-loob niya ay alam niya ang sagot.

He stays and keeps visiting her in her dreams because she wants him to. She badly dreamt for a man like him that she already started imagining him like he really exists.

Isang gabi, dinalaw nga siya nito pero hindi ito lumapit sa kanya. He didn't hug her. He didn't comfort her. Nasanay na siya sa pagdalaw nito sa kanya gabi-gabi sa loob ng isang buwan kaya sobra siyang nalungkot at nasaktan nang bigla na lang itong naging cold sa kanya.

Then she met Angelo, one of the cleaners of the mall. She seems familiar with him but she's also certain that she had never met him before.
