I pull on my cloak and best shoes as I get ready to leave.

The count has promised me to take me to the nearest town.

It's been a day since that dream. It's hard to believe.

That we knew each other. I think about questioning him.

We get into the carriage. And the ride begins. Down the bumpy road.

I turn to him.

"Did we know each other as children? Did we play together?" I ask.

He looks at me.

A sad expression floats through his eyes then disappears.

Making me wonder if I even saw it at all.

"Yes," was his reply. "We would play hide and seek in the street next to your house."

I sit in shock.

How could something like happen and I don't even remember?
