I had a friend whom I met in Kindergarten. Yes, Kindergarten. When we first moved here from California I met her in the last bit of Kindergarten. We went to school at the same place up to the completion of High School. We went to Germany together twice. We met once while both of us were going to community college, but after that the connection drops off.
The last year at least, I think perhaps longer, I'd have to go back and look, but the last year at the very least she's shown up in my dreams. At first it was somewhat casual, she just happened to be there as many people just happen to be in my dreams, but more and more the last several months I've been trying desperately to get in touch with her. I've had dreams about trying to get her phone number so I could contact her (the old contacts I have for her have since gone out of service). They've pressed more and more and some of them have gotten a bit frantic as I try to write down or get the right number and I can't seem to write down the same thing twice and it keeps on changing on me.
I've searched her name online and in phone books, no luck. Some six months ago her name, just her first name as it was one of those unique names that you don't come across, showed up on a search linked to Facebook, but it dead-ended there. More dreams, more frustrations and wondering where this deep-rooted, urgent need came from as it rattled around in my head, haunting my dreams.
Then today, today. I randomly type her name in. I don't really know why, but I did. And there she was. I was almost beside myself. Months and months of dreams, years even, pressing me to get back in touch with her and then ... suddenly ... there she was.
I sent her a message. We'll see what happens.
I wonder if the dreams will stop...
