A Love on a Midnight Dream
She was standing alone at the corridor waiting for him patiently. Once he stepped out the door, he grasped her hand, held it tightly as they walk to the exit. She felt so secured when he is with him. She really loves this man, and she couldn’t wish for another, she only wishes for them to last longer than forever. He looked at her with love in his eyes. He held her hand tighter as if he would not let her go. They held each other’s hands tightly, lovingly and carefully; they were a picture of a happy relationship.
She was doing some reports for the next day; he stopped by her office and gave her an encouraging smile. He was so supportive of her, he always let her do what she wants and help her with all he can. She stared at him, look at him in his eyes, smiling sweetly with all the love she had for him. He stood at the door leaving it open and staring at her the same way she did. They stared at each other like nobody could ever keep them away.
She went to the restaurant he said. There he was standing tall with a bouquet of flowers in his hands. His lips said “I love you” without a sound. She whispered “I love you too”. He handed her the flowers and they danced with the music of the violin. She rested her head on his shoulders, she would want to cry. He kissed her and whispered those three words on her ears, so sweetly and softly. They danced like there’s no tomorrow, they brace each other tightly with all the love they felt for each other.
He drove the car with her on the passenger seat. He reached for her hand and held it tight. He kissed her hand as a sign of his love and care for her. She told him, “I love you”, and he cherished those. She stared at him while he was driving, as if she would not want to take her eyes off him. She loves this man a lot, he is full of surprises, and she barely knew he could drive. He caught her staring at him; he smiled and touched her cheeks.
She cooked dinner for both of them. They ate facing each other and feeding the other happily. They shared funny stories and laughs while eating. They shared a good meal and good stories together as if they were not tired from work. He stopped and stared at her, he smiled and said he’s a lucky man for having her. She felt so happy that he felt the same way as she does and she could not wish for anything more.
They lie next to each other and stare at the sky. They gaze up on the stars that twinkle in the night sky. His arm was placed behind her neck making it as her pillow. Her arms embraced him to lessen the cold for they were at the beach making the waves and breeze as their companion. Together, they feed the dogs and each other. They were having fun. They hugged each other as tight as they could as they were standing on the sand and while the waves rush through their feet. They whisper those three words gently and softly with all the feelings, care, passion and love for each other.
She saw him from afar, he looked at her. He smiled, she saw his face on a close-up this time, and his lips read “I love you”. She memorized his face, the face of the man he loves; every curve, every line, the depth of his eyes, the thickness of his brows, the fullness of his cheeks, the shape of his lips, the look of his teeth, his face, his hair. She memorized every inch of him, every small detail of his face. Then suddenly, his face slowly fades, slowly vanishing from her sight.
It was dawn; the night was still in sight. She gasped for air, it was only a dream. She dreamt of him every night. She cried herself to sleep at night, she hasn’t moved on yet from their breakup. She knew she has to move on but she can’t help herself to make it. All their memories together are now part of history. Their love didn’t last, as though they tried. Memories of him haunt her, his voice, his facade, his breath; it all comes back to her making it hard for her to let go. It was dark, cold and lonely; she shut her eyes and tried to go back to sleep. She hugged her cold pillow as tears fall down to her cheeks.
