sometimes, dreams reveal your heart's desire.

it was February 6th, prom night.
her guy had to leave the day before.
she was devastated.
he could've left after her birthday which was the day after prom but he didn't.
all her hard work && preparation to look good on her prom night, wasted.
the perfect prom dress she bought especially for the occasion, means nothing now..



during the dance, all her friends felt how low she was. she tried to be happy for them.
she really did.
but it was just too painful to not have her guy with her on the night she had waited for so long.
one of her friends wasn't able to hold it any longer.
her friend pulled her by the hand and led her to the lobby.
she was afraid that her friend might have gotten mad and felt worse since she feels that she's the reason why their night wasn't as much fun as they imagined it to be.
just as she was about to apologize, her friend pulled out a cloth and covered her eyes.
she felt alone. she reached an all-time low.

then her friend grabbed her hand once more and was merely dragging her to someplace outside the hotel. suddenly, they stop. she felt grass beneath her heels. she froze for a second and didn't know what to do.
her friend let go of her hand.
she was now terrified.
scared that her friend might do anything, she just stood there, helpless.


"can i have this dance?"

chills ran down her spine. her knees grew weak. she knew who's voice it was.
music came out of nowhere. and the blindfold came off. she turned around, and there he was.
they were standing in front of a gazebo. a gazebo she imagined in her dreams.
it was a small yet simple gazebo decorated with lights and flowers especially for them.
and they danced ever so sweetly. he pulled her close as if tomorrow would never come.
he showed her he loved her so. she was let speechless and giddy. she couldn't have been any happier. they danced for a long time, seconds turned into minutes, minutes turned into hours, and they couldn't care less. after a long while, he broke his grasp and whispered in her ears, "happy birthday my love." and kissed her on the cheek. then she woke up.

it was all a dream. It wasn't real.

Dreams like these are the reason, most people would rather live in dreamworld. where else would your heart's desire reveal itself?
