Synopsis by Eleanor Mannikka
This story starts out to be about a romantic 16-year-old in love with the stars and flowers and a classmate who seems equally romantic. Eventually, the teenager starts dreaming about events before they actually happen. As it turns out, the object of her love is actually a space alien affected by her own romantic views of life and because of their unified wave length, some of his abilities have found their way into her own mental processes -- and in the end, both are uniquely star-crossed lovers.
