Dear Dream

Dream (n.) – Imaginary events

seen while sleeping

Ring~ Ring~

The alarm clock sounded. As a result, the person lying on the bed began to move. A thick hand reached out and pressed the clock on the bedside table. before stretching again to fully awaken himself. Then he walked sleepily into the bathroom to do his own business, not realizing the eyes staring at himself from the wall of the room.

My eyes stared at the tall figure with his usual smile every day from the window of my own house. A house with a bright red roof contrasts with the cold white of the snow. Surrounded by clear colored glass I call this place home. But that person calls my home a snow globe.

“Okay, I'm going.”

I could only silently follow him, every movement filled with grace and stability. A warmth radiated from around him. My patience is nearly at an end with this impossible wait. If God exists Please bless me and me to meet each other.

Even if it's a dream meeting, please.

The bright crescent moon Now it was filled with emptiness and darkness after the familiar figure had disappeared from view. Time slowly passed until the sun was about to set behind the horizon. Not long after, the owner of the room returned. His handsome face clearly showed exhaustion. His hands were filled with many things.

Whether it's a cylinder for key cards, dinnerware, various snacks, the most eye-catching thing is probably that small, light pink box.

My eyes looked suspiciously at the little box on the table. What is inside that box? But the lingering thing in my heart soon disappeared after a hand picked up the box and opened it. A crescent-shaped pendant appeared when the lid of the box was opened. The pendant is very similar to mine.

Even though they are different sides. Where did he get it from? I asked myself, lifting a slender finger and gently stroking the hanging pendant until I fell asleep.

Not long after the young man finished cleaning up his unfinished business, he carried his body to his favorite bed. Arrange yourself in a comfortable sleeping position and prepare to drift off to sleep. But he didn't manage to grab the pendant he had just gotten from the old man on his way back to his room today and reconsider why the old man had given this to himself before falling asleep. along with it

In just a moment, the crescent pendant glowed with a soft yellow light like the moon's light. The light that emitted was warm and gentle, as if comforting the two sleeping youths into a beautiful slumber.

The weather continues to cool during December. The entire street is lit up in warm colors, and stores are starting to unpack their Christmas decorations to decorate their shops and artificial pine trees. Many couples walked hand in hand to relieve the cold.

All of this atmosphere will be captured in beautiful memories for the couple. Those who passed by saw and myself

“Good morning, sir. Did you sleep well last night?”

A boy who was smaller than me greeted him with a beautiful smile. That smile can make my dull morning bright again like I am a withered tree. He is water and light. The plant will come back to life after receiving enough water and light.

“Good morning.”

I answered the person in front of me with affection. Before I extend my hand Our five fingers interlocked and swayed back and forth with the momentum. The walkway full of people on both sides of the road was now just the two of us. Everything now looks so beautiful that I'm afraid. I'm afraid that one day these beautiful memories will come back to hurt me when the two of us aren't together.

But I believe that we will definitely never have that day...

He and I walked into a small shop selling decorative items on the corner of the street. The inside of the store is decorated with wooden furniture that goes well with the orange lights of the store. The smell of the wood and the aroma of essential oils make the atmosphere inside the store feel even more warm.

“Did you see that snowball? ”

I turned around at the sound of another person calling. Then I walked quickly towards the vacant position of the person who owned my heart. After that, my eyes followed where my slender index finger was pointing, and what the person beside me pointed out was a white snow globe.

“I see, do you want it? ”

The smaller man shook his head lightly, closing the distance between me and the snowball. It can be seen that the inside of this snowball is decorated with fake snow, trees, and houses with red roofs. And a small boy doll with a face similar to the one he pointed out to me was sitting by the window.

On the boy's neck was something familiar to me. I stared at it for a moment before looking away.

“This is my home.”

The smaller man said with a smile as warm as the sun on a cold day before losing interest in the snowball. The two of us chose to buy different things and exchanged them. To which I gave a smooth silver bracelet. In the middle, a crescent moon was carved on him. The owner of the smiling eyes gave me a brown leather strap bracelet decorated with a silver crescent-shaped pendant.

“I love you, my heart.”

The smaller person said to me with a smile. The voice that came out was trembling. I held the waist of the person in front of me closer to me. The two of us hugged each other tightly enough to be able to hear each other's heartbeats. I could feel the dampness of the shirt on my shoulders. The body in his embrace trembled slightly.

I tighten my embrace as if this is my last hug and you are my happiness.

I could only watch as he, my beloved, was sleeping as usual. But this time, clear water flowed down his cheeks due to the agony. It's torture to be the only one who knows the whole story. But in that suffering there was still happiness. Happy that he and I once loved each other.

Thank you God for giving me this wonderful amulet. Thank you for making my wish come true.

Ring~ Ring~

The sound of the alarm clock signaling a new morning. I opened my eyes after reaching out to turn off the watch. Everything is a dream It was such a surreal dream. Who is that dream man? I tried to carry my still-not-fully-awakened body to the bathroom to go about my daily business as usual.

It didn't take long for me to finish my daily routine. While I was putting on my shoes and preparing to leave the room, My eyes caught sight of something covering the base of the familiar white snowball. My eyes burned as I encountered something that made my heart flutter again. The silver engraved bracelet that I gave to you for my happiness last night.

Images of happiness come back to tell a new story in my head. The image of the young man who owned crescent moon eyes. A picture of the two of us walking hand in hand on a street full of twinkling lights. A picture of the beautiful smiles and laughter we gave each other...

I was lost in my thoughts for a short while when the phone rang. Pulled me out to face the real world again. A close friend's name appeared on the phone in his hand. Before my eyes moved up to look at the time at the top of the screen The time shown indicates that if I don't leave the room now, As a result, I might have my name checked by a very cruel teacher. I put all thoughts aside before rushing out of the room.

“Are there black roses for sale here? ”

“Nothing, young man.”

"Really? Then I'd like to buy one white rose."

“Here, thank you very much.”

Today after class, instead of going straight to my room like I usually do, I was looking for black roses in several shops. But there is no store that sells black roses. Until I decided to buy white roses and soak them in water mixed with black in my room for several hours. Before taking the white rose, its petals had now turned black according to the color of the water that had been sucked. You can put it on the shelf with the snow globe.

This black rose that I made represents...

'Eternal love A love that doesn't really exist Just like my love happened to him. A person who is like the wind cannot be seen, but can feel its existence... ’
