I have a superhero. I've dreamed about him for many years now. He didn't really recognize me, as I was standing in the crowd. I tried to make myself noticed, yet I failed to catch his attention. When he did finally did notice me, he was a prick. But I never gave up. This superhero was to be mine someday. And so I kept proding and proding until after 2 years, I almost gave up. I decided to take a break. And so I did. I left him alone for 5 months. And during those 5 months, I, myself, was going through some changes. I was growing older, and much more wiser. I had an attitude change and straightened up my priorities. I was going through a semi rough time during those 5 months. I didn't know where I wanted to go to start my Life. I had choices to make and big ones at that. But during that long period, while I was changing, my superhero was changing as well. He was wisening up and thought to himself that maybe being a prick wasn't the way to go anymore. So he grew nicer and more kind. He was a new man. So after those 5 months, I decided to contact this wonderful superhero of mine. However, I approached with the utmost caution, in fear of being trampled on once more. But to my surprize, this superhero of mine, he had changed indeed. He was different. So I gave him 1 last chance to make it right between us. I showed him my real self, and he opened up to me in return. We talked for a month and a half, and I couldnt take it any longer. This superhero of mine needed to know that I felt things for him. And so I told him. I told him what I had wanted to tell him for so long. To my surprize, he took it very well and most likely with a smile. For he had a secret of his own as well. He felt similar for me. He said that since I let him see the real me, he had started to like me. This please me very much. I grew happy inside. And with everyday from then on, my feelings grew for him. I began to love him and he me. It was a wonderful feeling. Where are me and my wonderful superhero? We are talking and taking things nice and slow. A bright future awaits us both, together. And so, this fairytale dream is not much of a dream at all. It is becoming more alive with each day...
