Holly`s first night in the new house hadn`t been quite as good as she had expected it to be. She fell asleep only when the sun was already raising and woke up soon after that.

After having breakfast she fell asleep on the couch, the tv on and some random tv shows filling the room with sound. Her sleep was uneasy and she dreamed about a man.

He stood in the rain, dark coulds above his head. His head was low and his hands were in his pockets. She couldn`t see his face. It looked as if he was crying, but she couldn`t quite manage to see clearly as the rain was blurring her vision.
Suddenly the man moved and his long coat swayed along with the man`s moves. He sighed heavily and for a brief moment rised his eyes to meet Holly`s. Still the shadows were playing on his face, and the only thing Holly was able to form were his eyes. Solid brown eyes. So familiar.

But then she woke up as if someone had pinched her sides. She blinked rapidly and caught herself breathing heavily. A little sweatdrop ran down her forehead and dripped on her nose. She brushed it away and closed her eyes to regain calmness.

Why had this harmless dream upset her that much? It was weird. She had a strange feeling that she knew that man in the dream. Knew him very well. But she couldn`t quite put her finger on it.

She stood up, determined to find some aspirin for her forming headache. She knew her problems with her head, and she had to take some medicine now, otherwise it won`t end good. But after searching all the cupboards in the kitchen and the bedside table in her bedroom, she understood that she had no aspirin.

"Damn, how could I have been so stupid and forgotten to buy some pills!?" she cursed at herself. She didn`t have her car brought up here still, so she couldn`t go down to the drug store, but she needed the medicine now.
Her only hope was that maybe someone would be home at the house opposite the street.

Holly trew a look in the mirror and rushed out the door, leaving her keys on the coffee table.
