My Subconscious Dug Up Braulio

Incredibly bizarre: After spending Halloween night watching the first 3 Twilight movies last night, I fell asleep and had a vivid dream about an ex of mine from 7th or 8th grade named Braulio Lopez. The dream was nothing weird — just me getting him to open up and him eventually talking about how much I'd hurt him when we were kids. When I woke up though, I couldn't help but go on his Facebook profile, just to check that he actually looked happy. 

I looked at his profile pic, which I realized I'd seen once months ago when he and I became Facebook friends — likely our first interaction of any kind since our middle school breakup. He and I hadn't been together long or had anything serious. He was a sweet and quiet guy, and I've had many "louder" relationships to occupy mind since, so his and mine is not one I've ever given much thought to (aside from moments where I take a moment to let all the people I may have hurt in my life say their piece to me in my imagination.) It was just a kiddie relationship anyway, and I'm not sure he and I ever exchanged a word after that sad day all those years ago.

Anyway, his picture: It was him in a store with nothing noteworthy in sight other than a turtle backpack AND A TWILIGHT POSTER, which I hadn't previously noticed, slightly blurry and just within the shot. 😮 I'm not reaching here; there's nothing else to the pic, which I haven't seen or thought of beyond that one instance months ago.

I couldn't make this stuff up. I know Twilight was pretty popular but damn... 😂 I blame the mysteries of the human brain for this one.
