Chapter Seven
I know this is a dream because it has one of those weird dream feels. I am in the woods out behind my Mama’s trailer. It is dusk and the trees have just started to change to the orange and reds of autumn. I’m a little girl, maybe six years old. I am racing through the forest with Bo at my side. This dream feels oddly familiar, like I am reliving a distant memory. I hear a growl and a yelp and I freeze. There is a big black dog, no not a dog it is much bigger than a dog; almost the size of a pony but built like a bear. There is also a man in my dream. I can’t see his face but from the back he has long black hair that falls just below his elbows. He is tall and lean but the way his shirt fit over his arms and back leads me to believe he is well-built. He’s wearing black leather boots up to his knees and dark colored pants stuffed down in them. His shirt is black and long sleeve, but the sleeves are rolled up to his forearms. Over his shirt he is wearing a brown leather chest plate with matching fingerless gloves that go up pass his wrist. I remember this vision from the day I met Rykan, this is the same guy from that memory.
I say something in my child voice and both the long haired guy and the big dog turn towards me. It is then my dream shifts and I am still in the forest but I am my regular self now, and it is daytime instead of night. The trees are bright green and the sun is brighter than usual. I am in a white nightgown with a lacy collar and no shoes. I hear the sound of children laughing and decide to follow it. The sound leads me to a stunning garden. In my early teens I went through a phase in my photography, where I studied photos of beautiful gardens. One of my favorite photos was done by a French photographer of the gardens at the Palace of Versailles in France. This garden was like a smaller replica with its geometric designs and four separate sections. All of the walk-ways were done in sandy marble paving stones. The stones cut geometric shapes through the four sections of hedges and their different color flowers. The main walkway was lined with neatly trimmed hornbeam hedges and cone shaped Corsican pine trees. It was the most captivating thing I had ever seen. In the very middle of the garden was a large six-tier water fountain and sitting on a dark stone bench in front of the waterfall was a woman with two children sitting at her feet. The woman has beautiful sparkling eyes just like my rescuer from the diner. Her hair is white like fresh snow and her face is beautiful. She looks young, maybe mid-twenties, but I can tell by her eyes that she is much older than she appears.
