dream.
She: How come?
He: I donÕt know, but it was
great!
She: Oh myÉ
He: What? Are you okay?

She: Stop! Nothing will happen
between us just because of a littleÉa little shared delusion!
He: Oh, right! We had the same
dream, at the same time, in the same night and it happens everyday to everyone!
She: I donÕt know about
everyone, but anyway thereÕs nothing going on between us! Forget about it!
He: It was not just a dream and
you know thatÉit was special.
She: Nah! just a dream.
He: DonÕt say thatÉ
She: Whatever!
He: How long do we know
eachother?
She: IÕve never met you.
He: Tell me: how long do we
know eachother?
She: We donÕt. You have never
told me your name.
He: You never asked.
She: Cause it doesnÕt matter. I
like who you are for me, not who you are for the rest of the world. And if you
are not who people say you are, I donÕt give a shit! YouÕll always be the guy I
know.
He: What if IÕm ugly, fat and
dumb?
She: YouÕre lovely, kind, brilliant
and the sweetest guy, even if you are the fat plumber!
He: See? It is special.
She: Anyway, weÕve never met,
we donÕt know who we REALLY are. I donÕt want to ruin with a couple of hours of
presence what is kind of true in my mind for so long.
He: You make no sense! If I can
even be a plumber, how would we ruin anything?
She: IÕm not talking about
looks!
He: ListenÉif you be the way
youÕve always been, and the same with me, thereÕs no way weÕll ruin it
anything. And trust me, I am who I am.
She: RightÉbut no champagne, or
shirt, or showerÉnothing!
He: ItÕs done. See you
tomorrow.
She: No! Wait.
He: ItÕs not an option, Missy. IÕll
call you. Sleep tightÉdream of me.
She: I am dreaming.
He: I knowÉ
