The Dream

Scene 1: A girl enters the apartment. She had a spare key. She drops the bags on the bed and gets ready take a shower.

Scene 2: The girl had taken a shower but not inside the apartment. For reasons unknown, she had to shower in another bathroom in the building. She's on her way back to his apartment. Nothing is amiss except that the building is no longer an apartment building but a hotel with a big lobby. She notices this but takes it in stride.

Scene 3: She crosses the lobby to access the elevator that will take her back to his apartment. The elevator door opens, she is now worried. The hallways seemed familiar but does not take her back to his apartment. She tries different hallways, with no success. She keeps backtracking to the lobby, almost certain that the path she tried should lead her there.

Scene 4: She is upset. She is confused and anxious that he should find out she had gone to his apartment. She did not let him know she was coming. Her bags were sitting on his bed. She really did not want him to know.

Interpretation: This girl is me. I could sit here all night contemplating the meaning of my dream as I listen to the soundtrack from Les Miserables. Or I could take it for what it is. A simple sign.
