somewhere in the forest.

Sometime long long ago, formed, a pine cone, on a branch of a pine tree of course, time went by, it grew and grew, but it did dot fell... That is until today. when it was so heavy that it detached and fell from the tree. When it(pine cone) was falling a kid ran by and saw how the pine cone falls surely the pine cone fell really slow the boy rushed, took a deep breath, and jumped, and caught that pine cone. In his both hands.he knew it was a very special pine cone.
For it was very dramatic scene. oh whats this it seems. As he jumped, he scraped his knee.he went home , holding the pine cone very gently, and observed with amazement, and wondered, what kind of pine cone is that, for he never saw a pine cone like that. the sun was going away it was getting late he heads home. Sometime later..., the boy walks in his room.

He is tired, the pinecone is getting heavy the boy puts it on the bed. And says "don't you go anywhere.
You hear me?" something strange happened in that moment.
It felt that the pine cone understood him and conveyed somehow, that he understood.
The boy went to his mom to treat his wound, from the dramatic jump do you remember that?.
"all done there you go next time be more careful my little boy", the boy nods to his mom.
then He went back to his room. He felt really sleepy it's strange, he figured he was so tired from the hike, . So he went straight to bed, he fell asleep the moment his head touched the pillow...

As he fell a sleep a thought lingered in his mind, about the pine cone. Everything was black around the boy, out of nowhere came fear the scene shifted the boy he was falling from high altitude he was scared that he will crash.
He was terrified. That he would die.
Yet he was sleeping "the last thing I did was lay down my head on the pillow" and then he realized he was dreaming a dream he never experienced this before, so vivid, so real.

He could feel every wind gust, he could feel everything.
As he was falling he saw a small pine cone underneath, he was falling very fast and still he was scared of death. Pine cone appeared bigger and bigger by the seconds. So he was falling that fast. He didn't know what to do.
He closed his eyes for a moment and opened them again. He was still falling but something had changed in the formation of pine cone structure...
He saw something that made him smile. For he recognized the pine cone, and the way it was transformed, like a downward spiral sliding board so he fell straight down and started to slide, round and round ,it was so much fun, turning round and round...he saw the vast view of his dream world, it was very pretty and breathtaking, but he had no time to take it all in. As he was going down and down ever so fast. Until he was at the end.

Swoosh he landed in a green soft tall grass.
That's when he first met her. A girl never seen before. He walked up to her, and asked her, something, but there was no answer, he thought that's strange. But he knew she understands him. So they played in the dream, all kind of wonderful games, for example play catch in a big grass , hide and seek, rolling in the grass, counting many layers of the pine cone and much much more.
It felt like hundred years passed by while they were playing.
They felt something shook in the dreamworld, then he said to her "its time. I hope we'll meet again. Then he woke up.
With disbelief, but still wondering. Amazing experience indeed, never felt anything like it before.

As he woke up it was time to go to school.but he took the long path along the lake and he took the pine cone with him to show it to classmates. When he got to the school, he was eager to tell them the dream. He was misunderstood. They did not believe a thing he said, they snatched the pine cone , and tossed it in the pine cone pile, for they knew that he will never find it there. They were right he could not find it.
He searched till it was late. And then he would go home empty handed for he could not find it... Saddness filled his heart. But he didn't give up. He asked the janitor when will they move the pine cone pile? The janitor said that "in a week the pile will be thrown in furnace to heat school water and heating system. " the boy was sad, and he went home for it was late that day. As the janitor locked the doors of the school garden shed, he caught something with his peripheral vision a light from the pine cone pile. He went closer to the pile but then, a street light before him started flickering, he thought that that was the culprit and went home.

For 5 days the boy searched for the pine cone till dark. And could not find it.
Then one day at school. A surprise. A new classmate, moved to town, and this is the new kids first day at school. The children's voices filled the class. The boy was with his back to the chalkboard talking with the boys who threw away his pine cone."where did that pine cone landed?" the blockhead answered "oh c'mon its been a week and you still are looking for that stupid pine cone?" the boy was so eager to know and didn't pay any attention to the new classmate, then the teacher said, attention. As he was turning around. He saw her, yeah it was her, no doubt in his mind, she is the girl from his dream.
Their eyes met, and the girls expression, was the same as his, they could not believe their eyes they recognized each other.The teacher said to the girl ,you can sit wherever you want.
So she was looking for a place...there were many free spots in the back of the class, and one free spot with the boy, cos his constant questions about the pine cone made him lost his friend that he sat with. A hard choice it was, but she was brave, and made up her mind to sit next to the boy, from her dream.

The classes felt like ages to them for they were eager to talk about the dream, and the cartoons.
After school they talked. The boy told her everything about that pine cone.
And she was amazed. She thought to herself, "i bet the dream happened cos of the pine cone".
He walked her home. Said good bye. And then he went home. With a happy feeling.
As he was gone. It was not very late. So the girl sneaked out of her house, to go back to school.to find that pine cone, the town was totally unfamiliar to her, but she knew her way to school and back she found herway around the school garden area saw the big pine cone pile...."now where is it...?" she was digging in that pile with so much enthusiasm. Aha! Lo and behold, she must not had searched not a minute.
For the pine cone was totally obvious, it was glowing with a dim light, it stood out from the rest.
So she went home happy, laid in her bed. And fell asleep.
She was experiencing the falling dream just like the boy.
She was afraid to fall to her death, but as soon she saw the sliding board, the fear went away.
She felt really happy.

At the same time, the boy woke up in the tender field of grass. Near the slide as the girl was propelled down, she had the most fun.

Going around and around down then tossed out in the tender grass, she saw him but, but he could not hear her...
So she took his hand.and gave him the pine cone. At that moment the pine cone pulsated with gold shimmering light , they both woke up. Time to school.
They both new something happened and that nothing will be the same ever again.
They knew that they were meant for each other, and the years went by, well they made a wedding rings from that pine cone, what can I say it was a love story, they were inseparable for all their lives. The fear went away the moment their eyes met.
They were not afraid to die cos they knew they cannot ever lose each other and that there will always be a connection that binds them which is love.
