his name was dallas.

we met on accident.

pure coincidence.

that night my doctor told me i would have to stay in the hospital so they could monitor me.

of course i protested and tried to negotiate, but i failed.

and i was stuck there.

it was 10:45 at night and i was beginning to feel reckless.

the eerie feel of the hospital and my empty stomach made it impossible to drift asleep.

so i decided to go for a walk.

10:50pm

i passed the children's hall.

10:51pm

i walked past the reception desk.

10:55pm

i bought a pack of skittles from the vending machine.

10:56pm

i climbed up a flight of stairs coming across unknown territory.

10:57pm

i kept climbing till i saw the last flight of stairs, the end. and where there's an end, there's always a new door to be open.

10:59pm

so i opened the door and was greeted by a gust of wind.

11:00pm

"who are you?"

then and there i meet dallas on the 11th day of the 11th month of the 11th hour.
