Eva moaned awake.  Intense pain in her abdomen rippled through her. She gasped for breath, and from the smell, she recalled, she was in the hospital. A tumor had formed around one of her ovaries, it had been removed. Within the same realization, she had dreamt about her fantasy lover, ET, again. Just thinking about him, her pain eased to a dull ache.  She smiled, and was glad that he was with her. She could always count on him. You rely on him too much

     She cuddled the extra pillow. Her dreams about ET first started as friendship the day she started her monthly.  Somehow her soul sought his, or it was he who sought hers. Since then, ET had introduced her to hot, fiery passion, the kind that demanded mind, body, and their souls to bond. She sighed. In some of her dreams it felt so real. In others, it was only fantasy. She had no clue what it felt like to have sex. She was still a virgin.

     I'm in love with a man who doesn't exist. I'm crazy, I must be.
