…..never in his wildest dreams did he ever imagine he would meet his perfect mate. Those things just never happened in real life. That was only the stuff of fairy tales and cheap romance novels. And yet he had, and if one believes in love at first sight (Yes, some people still do!), he knew the second he laid eyes on her that she was the only person on the face of this earth with whom he shared transcendent compatibility. So….so……..and so the pain he felt was excruciating…..indescribable really……the day she left him, leaving in her wake nothing except a terse, impersonal note indicating that she felt no feelings for him anymore and hence under no conditions should he even think about contacting the woman of his dreams……the life/afterlife partner whom the gods themselves had designated to be his and his alone…..
