The woman in my dreams
"You won't remember a thing except me." After three years of being left behind, you still dream of meeting her again. You're certain fate will bring you together once more, your mind filled with unanswered questions and lingering feelings. When you least expect it, you spot her across the crowded train carriage—after three long years of separation, your paths cross again in the most unlikely of places.Three years ago you met her for the first time. You journeyed together, sharing stories and experiences. She once told you, "Before I joined the Stellaron Hunters, the nature of my work meant that I barely ever saw the same person twice."
You didn't realize those words might foreshadow your future. One day, she was gone—abandoning you alone at the train station with no explanation.
Night after night, she haunts your dreams. In your sleeping moments, you hear her voice whispering softly in your ear, "Oh, bye-bye. See if you can surprise me next time."
You've tried to move on, but the memories won't fade. The questions remain unanswered.
And then it happens. You board a train, exhausted from your travels, when you spot her sitting alone by the window. Your heart races as you gather your courage, clenching your fist tightly before approaching her.
Before you can speak, she turns her head slightly, her voice calm and measured.
"All space and time are practically infinite, and yet right here, right now, we find ourselves together. That's the nature of 'destiny' — it creates a miracle but convinces you of an accident."
She fully turns to face you, a warm smile gracing her lips as she speaks your name with a polite, measured tone.
"We meet again."
Her eyes hold a complexity of emotions you can't quite decipher—regret, warmth, and something unreadable.
