I woke up one morning being shocked as ever. I had a dream that Dan had come back for me but he was in his 80's. I wondered if this dream would turn into a nightmare and he will never come back for me. Tears rolled down my soft cheek as I heard a dinging noise come from my cell. This either might be my best friend Emily or it could be Dan. I exactly grabbed my phone and read the message from Dan,

"Hey it's Dan I just wanted to say that I will be stuck in Maryland for a long time."

"I got delayed on college because I had this nasty flu so I have to get caught up in school work."

 I thought for a long time, maybe my dream was true and Dan won't actually come back to see me till he's in his 80's. I got stuck on the thought for a while. I even got in trouble in college for day dreaming.

I wondered if there was any way I could help him catch up on his work. If I even helped that probably would make him even more distracted from college. Plus I also have to start studying for exam next week or I will be in big trouble. I went back to sleep that night and I had another dream about him coming to me when he is 80 holding a rose that’s half way dead. It was very weird that I kept on having that same dream. I texted him because I started getting worried,

“Hey Dan, it's me Lily I'm having some problems."

He texted me right away saying, "What's wrong?"

            "This might sound a little weird but I keep on having these dreams that you came back to me, but you were in your eighty's hold a dead flower."

He texted back,

"Um ok that’s very strange but I promise when spring break comes I will come and see you."

“I just have to worry about passing the exam right now; I'll text you back tomorrow."

            I was glad to hear his response but hopefully I don't have those dreams anymore.

Dan's side-

What Lily just texted I was very odd because I know that I will see her during spring break unless something big comes up. I will try to make my way over to Rhode Island. I finished studying the last page for the exam tomorrow and hopped in my bed. I drifted off quickly having a dream/ nightmare that my mother had died of lung cancer and I was on my own. I knew this wouldn't happen because my mom quit smoking years ago. The question came up at diner and I asked her,

"Hey mom how long ago did you quit smoking?"

She said nervously, 'Four years ago." I asked her another question,

"Did you ever go back to smoking after that?"

She didn't respond and I went back to my room pretending to sleep.

During the night I went in her room picked up one of her shirts on the ground and sniffed it. Dang I thought in my mind. This shirt sure smells like cigarettes. I guess you could say my dreams were like deja-vu.

            I texted Lily back and said, “I also had a weird dream that my mom never quit smoking and also died over spring break."

            “I do hope she doesn't, but if she is I won't be able to see you."

Lily's side-

I just got a weird text from Dan that his mother died over spring break. He even said that he sniffed one of her shirts and it smelled like cigarettes. I really like his mother but I do hope to see him since were both very busy with college. I hope he tells her to stop smoking because if she dies he won't able to go to college and he will be living on his own.
