Dream

She wakes up and she's at a restaurant. There were many people... all their faces were just blurs.
"where am I?" she asked herself.
Somehow, she just knew it was a party, and someone is walking over to her.
On the open floor, couples were dancing. People were dancing. Jumping to the beaty music.
And as the song ended, the people clapped. The mood had set in. Now a romantic song is played over the speakers.
The person reached out his hand towards her, a request for a dance?
Reluctantly, she agreed and put her hand in his.
She looked around for her friends whom she came with but did not see them. Around her, people were encouraging her to go for it. Go and dance. She went along, her face blushing uncontrollably.
The dance was awkward at first. She kept looking down at her feet, at her dress swooshing around her legs. Her arms were stiff, like she has not done it before.
She opened her mouth to speak but nothing comes out. "This is like my syf competition... I had to dance..." She wanted to say. But why didn't she say it?
She let him guide her around the dance floor. There was an awkward step where she had to go under his arm, and they got tangled. She quickly let go, embarrassed.


And she wakes up. It was a dream. A lovely and memorable one :) How is it that she could have dreamt of a guy that she had met and known for less than 24 hours?
