have you ever cried in your dreams? i know i have.

twice is number of times i shed a tear in my dreams. in both of my dreams, the same 2 people are involved in it. my late grandparents.

the first dream happened 1 or 2 years ago. i remember sleeping at like 4am and by the time i awoke, i was in tears. the dream goes like this. when my grandparents were still around, for their individual birthdays, my relatives would book a restaurant and invite everyone from the family to celebrate their birthdays. so i was dreaming that it was my late grandmother's birthday and we are at the restaurant as usual. my grandfather told me to wish my grandmother happy birthday, so i did. as i was walking to her, i began to remember that they have already past away. before i could walk to her, i awoke from that dream, lying in bed in tears.

the second dream happened just 2 days ago, on my 18th birthday. this dream i remember it very vaguely. i slept at 2am the previous night and like the first dream, i was in tears when i awoke. all i can remember from that dream is that my grandmother was in front of me, talking to me. then, i awoke from that dream and in tears. i lay on my bed, closing my eyes, thanking them and telling them that i've grown up because of their love and care.
