I heard a faint cracking of branches and suddenly I was swirled around by the wind and leaves. In front of me an animal was running for its life, it looked like a deer but was a bit too stocky for that. Behind him a person hooted, only at second glance did I recognize the person .. it was the man I had met in my dreams. Graceful yet lightning speed he moved on the dry, fern-covered forest floor, always with the goal in mind. My thoughts revolved around one single question: what is he doing and why? Lost in thought, I got up suddenly. Then he stopped, looked at me and came closer. "Leila, dear, what are you doing here alone in the forest?" He asked me, confused. "Never call me dear again - understand? I thought I only dreamed of you and now you are real. How do you know my name? Who are you? What did you want to do to the animal? Why are .." "Too many questions dear . " I was shocked, apparently he had overheard me when I said that he should never call me love again. That very word made me even more furious. "You are probably out of your mind ..." He put his hand on my cheek, then looked into my eyes. "Do you actually know how beautiful you are, Leila?" "W-how please?" It wasn't the first time that I heard such a simple pick-up line from a boy or man, but it was different with him. "If only I only knew who you are .." "Ivan, my name is Ivan." Ivan, Ivan .. what a beautiful name, it sounded in my head like daydreams flooded with music. "So your name is Ivan, but how do you know my name?" "Leila, I see you every day, normally you have to notice something like that. For months I have been watching them regularly when you explore the forest." "What do you mean? Why are you doing this?" "It's just too amazing how much you are in harmony with nature. You see it with completely different eyes than all the inconsiderate people." It took me a little moment to digest all that had just happened. From one moment to the next I felt a sting in my throat and passed out.
