Meeting You Was Fate

"Okay, I know." Mandy placed the milk on the nightstand. She was not curious about it, and she knew that she should obey the rules.

Later that night, Mandy had a long dream.

She was walking into a forest, and there was an eerie feeling that she was lost. It was foggy. The air was pungent with the smell of smoke, which made her cough.

"Ahem!" She didn't know where she was now, so she was terrified and continued trudging her way out cautiously. Stretching out her trembling fingers, she helplessly tried to explore what was around her. She couldn't feel anything with her fingers, and what was worse, she could see nothing.

Suddenly, a deer rushed out of the fog and ran towards her as if it was crazy. Mandy instinctively turned around and abruptly fell into a strange embrace.

With her vision blurred, she couldn't see who the person was. She only heard him call out her name softly, "Mand."

His magnetic voice was like the sounds from heaven, which gave Mandy a strong sense of security in an instant. Mandy inched her body closer and hid in his arms, staying there motionlessly.

"Oh, my God! Bruce, is that you? Am I dreaming?" Mandy asked tentatively, feeling relieved.

The fog had not yet dispersed, and Mandy couldn't see who was behind her. But she believed that this voice, sounding like an angel, belonged to Bruce.

"It's me. Don't be afraid. I'm here!" Bruce gently patted her on the shoulder and tried to comfort her in a flat tone.

Nathan stared daggers at Mandy, who was lying on the bed. Although he looked calm as usual, there was already a surge swirling deep in his heart.
