Mysterious Journeys

Eyes red from crying, Yasu stared into Gregg''s eyes and said, Dad, no matter what happens, please don''t abandon me. You have my word, as long as there is breath in me, I''ll be by your side, night or day. With that, Gregg kissed his soon to be adopted daughter''s forehead and left. Walking down the road, Gregg paused to feel the cool night air on his face and found himself in Dry Gulch; again. Gregg sat on the edge of the bed, put his head in his hands and muttered, Wow, what a dream that was. His hand then, touched a picture lying beside him. His heart stopped, as he stared at a picture of Yasu in a garden, dressed in a red and yellow Kimono. Tears filled his eyes, as he read the inscription, on the back, To my Dad, Gregg.
