Meeting ...
The man of her dreams
by Wendy G
Maria claimed her dreams always came true.
Her friends laughed, teasing her about "Mr Right".
She'd had no success. Yet.
That Saturday evening, a handsome, charming man danced with her at a party; conversation and drinks flowed. He invited her home.
Maria excused herself. Bathroom visit first.
Fifteen minutes later, police entered and arrested him. Possession of date-rape drugs, duct tape, and a double-edged dagger.
She'd dreamed this exact scenario, recognised him, and phoned police.
