When I started seeing her in my dreams, I thought I had to visit her.
Where had my best-friend suddenly disappeared?
Why had she stopped receiving my phone calls and replying to
my emails and messages?
I took the next flight to her city.
I went to her workplace and apartment.
When I showed her photo or asked about her, none recognized
her.
They said- "No such girl ever worked or stayed here!"
I ordered coffee at her favourite coffee shop.

There, I saw her walking towards me!
Wind gushed.
She simply vanished.
My full coffee cup was now empty.

It appears she is living between two parallel dimensions. Which is real, the dream world or the present world?
