"I hope you find me soon… just like you found me all those years ago."
Adeline inhaled sharply and sat up straight on her bed. She was breathing very heavily and her eyes were all wet.
She had a defeated expression on her face. "Ugh! Not again!" she shouted in irritation because she knew what was about to come next.
She tried her best not to cry but tears started to roll down her cheeks uncontrollably. Adeline wiped her tears a few times while complaining about her tears, "Why do these tears always betray me? Don't fall, dammit! What's wrong with you?"
After a while, she gave up trying to control her tears and she ended up burying her face in her palms and crying for some more time.
For some reason, she would always feel miserable whenever she saw this particular dream where a man with a beaten-up face would look at her with teary eyes and would ask her to find him.
