Carlos is sleeping very soundly beside me. His face looks like an angel when he’s asleep. Aw! Cute.
I want to capture this moment! I will use this to blackmail him.
I decided to stop the car, it's already dark and we are almost there to our destination.
I stepped on the brakes…
I woke up because Celine is shaking me.
I look around.
It’s almost evening, but why are we still on the road and not at our destination.
“Where are---” I tried to ask but she cut me off.
“ Yue? Will you do anything for me?” she randomly asked.
I nodded as a response.
“Anything, My mon amour. Just ask.”
She smiles with a teary eye.
What happened?
I was about to go to his side, but she stopped me.
“Carlos, thank you for loving me and taking care of me. I know this might be too sudden, but, I want you to know that I LOVE YOU VERY MUCH, I WHOLEHEARTEDLY LOVES YOU SIR BEKS.
How I wish that I’ve met you earlier, so we can spend our time together for a little longer. Haha. You think I’m crazy, right?
Sorry, but this woman you love has a lot of crazy sides.
Always take care of yourself, alright?”
What is she saying?
What is happening, right now?
Her eyes are turning red.
“The break isn’t working, Yue.” She said with a calm tone.
Fuck. Shit! “WHAT? Since, when?!”
“Before I woke you up.”
Shit. Earlier the car is still in a good condition.
I am now so worried, negative thoughts are rushing to my mind.
This can’t happen to us.
I will not let anything bad happen to Celine.
I can’t live without her.
I try to hide the worry that I am feeling right now. I took a deep breath.
“Let’s jump,” I said, firmly.
I hold her one hand to assure her that it’s going to be alright.
We will be okay since the speed of the car is not that fast.
I silently thank God.
I look around if there are cars on the road,
I’m so thankful that there are no cars.
First, I open the door on my side, then I open the door on her side.
“Let’s do this, My mon amour. We can do it.
This is too risky but we have to do this. we will survive. Trust me.”
She just nodded. I am worried about Celine; I can’t protect her enough.
“Are you with me, My mon amour?”
“I’m always with you, Yue.” She said.
“At the count of three, we’ll jump, okay?
One
Two
Three.”
For the last time, I looked at her.
She closes her eyes and smiled brightly at me.
“Farewell...Yue.”
I just heard the car bumps into a giant tree.
I got bruises and wounds, but I didn’t mind all of this.
I need to find Celine.
I looked at the other side of the road where Celine might jump.
My heart starts to beat fast.
I can’t find her.
“Celine! W-where are you?! Are you okay?” I shouted hiding the worries’ that I am feeling right now.
My eyes started to be watery.
I can’t find her.
“Farewell... Yue.”
Those last words of her echoed in my mind. I run as fast as I could to the crash car.
No!
Please, God.
No!
D-don’t.
When I am near the car, I look at the driver’s seat.
And that made my heart broke into a million pieces.
“Shit!” I shouted.
I took off the door of the car, I don’t know how I did that. Maybe, because of the adrenaline that is now invading my system.
All I could think is saving the love of my life. Fuck those wounds.
I check her wrist, shit! I can barely hear her heartbeat.
“Pl-lease hold on, b-baby.”
She is almost soaking in her blood. I saw a big chunk of glass that almost deeply cut into her arm.
That sight.. almost.. killed me.
I can’t stop the tears running down my cheeks.
I sniffed.
Fuck. That smells, gasoline.
My body moves on its own. I took Celine out of the car carefully. Any minute the car will explode.
I panicked.
God, I know, I don’t deserve your mercy. I committed a lot of sins. I violated our moral laws.
But...
Please, God, please save-e her.
P-please. I’m-m begging Y-you.
I saw that the front part of the car is on fire.
I carry Celine immediately and took her to the nearest hospital.
Please, hang in there.
I can’t see any vehicles that pass by. Hit. I need help.
My cellphone is broken, that’s why it is of no use at all.
I look at Celine.
Sh-he’s so-o pale.
“H-help!.. H-help us! Pl-please!” I scream while running in the middle of the road while screaming for help.
This is all my fault.
My vision is getting blurry.
No. please not now.
I staggered.
I am feeling dizzy.
And the last image I saw, was alight beaming at Celine’s blood-bathed face.
I am witnessing the sweetest smile that I have ever seen. The smile from the lips of the girl that I love the most.
She’s playing with two little boys.
It’s nice seeing them like this.
I tried to go near with them.
But, as soon as I got there, slowly their fading right in front of my eyes.
“Noooo!” I screamed as I catch my breath.
It was just a dream, thank God!
I look around me.
White ceiling. White bed and pillows. I have an IV injected into me.
Am I in a hospital?
Why am I here?
I try to stand, but I can’t do it.
My body hurts like hell.
I suddenly remember what just happen.
Fuck!
My mon amour Celine.
I didn’t mind the pain that I am feeling right now. I walk outside the room, then I ask the nurse that passes by.
