Cheen Wei - school compound

I dream of you again, after a long time.

We were back in school. Back to a place where it all started. You looked the same. Your face, it had the same smile. Maybe I made you look the same in my dream. I kept reminding myself that you have a daughter and you are now a mother, a fact which I had not get used to. It was awkward seeing you after all the years, even in a dream.

The car turned the corner into the school compound. There you were, standing at the corner of the road, as if waiting for someone, waiting for me, you pretended not to see me in the car passed by. I got down from the passengers seat, you look my way from the corner of the road.

Later that day, you offered to send me to school and back. As if you were jealous. As if you wanted to take control of the situation. I was glad. Inside, I was jumping with joy. Getting a ride with you to and fro school, we had never been that close. Oh boy, was I happy.
