But then he opens his eyes to the quiet of his room and the loneliness hits him like a wave. He decides to get some air, to clear his head. And then, out of nowhere, he sees you. Someone he’s never met before, but in his dreams. It’s awkward but he stops the person walking in the opposite direction passing him. He’s desperate to shoot his shot. “Hey! Uhm, gosh do I know you? You look so dang familiar.”
