"Dreaming of Fate"
I lie in a lush green meadow, the sun beating down on my face, and wonder if he was meant to be mine.
I had a dream last night, a wonderful dream, that I would remember for the rest of my life. The dream was as clear as the sky to me. I could not think of anything else at all, but the beautiful, loving person in the dream.
I fall back asleep in the warmth of the day, to relive the moments, the moments where I see him for the first time.
I was carrying a large bag of groceries (more like fumbling) back to my father's farm. The town smelled of honey, as the bakery was right next to gigantic fans. The florist had just cut fresh flowers, and the scent collided with the sweet honey, making an almost heavenly aroma.
As I walked down the street, clumsy me, I tripped on a pomegranate that fell out of my bag. I flew forward, spilling the groceries every which way, but before I fell to the ground, something caught me. No, someone.
I looked up, all red-faced from the embarrassment, to see a stunning man with dazzling features holding me in his arms. He looked into my eyes as I gazed into his sky-blue ones. We just stood there, him holding me, until we heard a little alarm going off. We realized that we were a perfect match.
He gently let me down onto the street, and said in a honey-smooth voice, "Hi, I'm David, nice to meet you." He smiled and held out his hand.
Stunned and red-faced, I barely murmured, "H-hi, I'm Sara." I smiled my best smile. I shook his hand, looked down at my shoes and spoke quickly, "Uhm, sorry for all the fuss I caused, I'm a bit of a klutz, I'll just pick up my things and go back to -"
He put a finger on my mouth gently, and said in an almost whisper, "You didn't cause any fuss, you caused fate."
Everything was starting to whip around and blend in with everything else. I saw us on our first date. Everything blurred and twisted again, then I saw us getting married. Again everything warped, then, as if a wave or a wind was carrying me, scrambled thoughts became clear, and I saw us old and withered, cuddled together on a porch, watching the sunset. I was sucked back into the chaotic mess, then pulled down into consciousness again.
I awoke with a start, feeling dizzy and unbalanced. I sat up and stretched. I looked over in the distance towards the town. "I think I'll go get dad's groceries now."
