His Precious Love

Rayna didn’t know what Kristie saw in her dream, but it broke her heart to see Kristie cry.

Eventually, Kristie calmed down and woke up. When she saw Rayna, she thought she was dreaming, and she rubbed her eyes.

“Rayna? Oh, you’re here. You should’ve woken me up,” she said, her voice still raspy from all the crying.

Rayna wiped Kristie’s tears away and asked tenderly, “What did you dream of? You were crying.”

“I… I don’t know.” Kristie sat up, a frown creasing her forehead. She tried her best to recall what she saw in her dream. “I dreamt of a guy. He said he would marry me after he graduates, but… but I couldn’t see his face clearly. And that’s not even the weird part. For some reason, I said yes, and we went to pick out my gown and our wedding ring. The wedding was held in a church. But just before we could take our vows, he said he had something to settle, and then he ran away.”

A sorrowful sensation filled Kristie’s heart. “For some reason, I felt my heart clench. It’s like my world got shattered into a million pieces. What if he isn’t coming back? That was what I thought. So I went after him, but no matter how much I cried out to him, he wouldn’t turn back.”

The more she recalled the dream she had, the more distressed she was, and she began crying uncontrollably again. Wiping her tears, she said, “I just felt so, so sad. I couldn’t stop crying. It’s weird, Rayna. I couldn’t even see his face, and yet I couldn’t stop crying.”

Rayna had the answer to that question. Kristie might have forgotten that man, but Rayna didn’t. The former might be hypnotized, but her memories of James were still suppressed somewhere in her mind. She would subconsciously think of him from time to time.

How much does she love him to dream about him even after she lost her memories of him.

Rayna smiled and consoled her, “It’s just a dream, silly. Stop overthinking. I guess he must love you a lot. Maybe someday he’ll come to you.”

Kristie frowned as a look of confusion surfaced in her eyes. “He said he’d marry me after he graduated. So he’s younger than me? I hope he’s not ugly. And I really wish he’s not a manchild.”

“He’s not,” promised Rayna. “He’s handsome, mature, and loving. He’ll keep you safe.”

“Do you know who he is, Rayna?”

“Yes. I know him.”
