I pouted, then took his hands. Furthermore, I intertwined our fingers and made stared at his hazel brown eyes. My eyes shone in happiness when I saw how astonished he was with what I have done."I'm so thankful when I got to meet you," I jumped and hugged him. I whispered the words I never knew I was capable of saying. "I accept my defeat."I sat and clenched my chest when I woke up like I just joined a marathon. I'm panting, I can't seem to catch my breath. I wiped the tears that streamed on my cheeks after dreaming of that scene again.This is not the first time that I've dreamed of that.

I stared at the box on the highest compartment of the shelf. I just decided to clean my whole room and dispose things I can no longer use. I pulled a chair and placed it near the shelf. I took the box, and it's somewhat surprising that it's not that heavy. I was about to get down when I lost my balance.“Ahh”I shrieked. I closed my eyes and felt the box flew out of my hand. I landed on my buttocks, and it hurts like hell. I gently caressed it and opened my right eye.I hissed. It hurts, especially when I stood up. It feels like my bones just got dislocated.
