AFTER 6 MONTHS
Nials' Point of View
"Masteeeeeeeeeeer!"
I turned to her as she ran towards me.
"Hoooooo! Sometimes you really make me tired," she complained as she finally got closer to me. Her cheeks were red from the heat and running.
"Why did you run?" I asked her with a laugh.
"Because you'll leave me." She pout. She's cute, she's like a ripe tomato.
"I won't leave you, you're the one who left me, eh."
"Didn't I tell you I won't leave you? I'll always be by your side to watch over you, right?"
I just smiled at her. Her forehead is starting to wrinkle again and that's cute. Maybe I can really take her home forever.
"Come here, I missed you."
I hugged her too tightly. I just closed my eyes when I felt her reciprocate my hug.
"Master?" she called while still hugging.
"Oh?"
"Oh! You're not my master anymore, I forgot."
"Yes, you're a free genie. All right, find your new master." I tease her.
She pinched me lightly on my side.
I hugged her tighter. I miss her so much. I let go of her to look into his eyes.
"Nial ... Why are you crying?"
I touched my face, of course I was crying.
"I miss you so much Cams ... come back please? Is that okay?"
"Nial I'm not leaving." She wiped my tears before speaking again.
"Don't cry anymore, I don't want to see you sad. Aren't you happy that I'm here?"
I love it Cams. If you only knew how much I asked for it.
"Ah! I know we'll just watch the sunset." She said loudly then pulled my hand and went somewhere.
That's what we did. I want to make the most of every moment I have with her.
"Will you be with me again?"
I held his hand as we watched the sunset together.
"You can always be with me, Nial, how many times can I repeat it?"
I no longer answered. We just stared at the sun slowly setting.
"You know, life is like sunset." She look at me and smile.
"Because there's no reason for you to be sad when the sun goes down because whatever happens, it will rise and it will still rise in the morning." She tightened the grip on my hand.
"It's like human life. Even if she disappears when she dies, no matter what happens she's still there beside you. Watching and loving you," she continued.
Upon looking at her eyes, I realize how much happy she is now. She is free, free from her pain. She will no longer suffer, she will no longer cry and she will no longer be hurt.
"I'm taking care of your mom, she misses you so much Cams."
"Thank you Nial, please tell her I love her so much." Her eyes lit up when he heard that.
I pinched her cheek.
"Look! I'm wearing something beautiful, isn't it?"
She suddenly turned in front of me while showing off her white dress. She was shining in the extra light, her former body was back as well as her energy. Suddenly, my loneliness and sadness were replaced by joy because I saw her happiness now.
"Yeah very beautiful" I whispered but enough for her to hear.
She took my hands again and approached me.
"Are you still sad?"
As long as I know you’re by my side, I’ll be happy.
"Thank you for fulfilling my request."
I kiss her forehead.
"I love you Camerron"
Then I kiss her lips.
"I love you too Nial."
The sun kept setting, the surroundings became dark and everything disappeared.
Thanks for visiting my dream.
-
This is the love story that hasn't started yet but has ended. The fairytale that hasn't done "once upon a time" but has done "the end". This is our story, it started with a vague dream until it came true, but it didn't take long.
First vague, until she showed me how beautiful life and the world are. But no matter how beautiful the world is, there are people who still hate to see it. No matter how much you want to be with that person, the fact that you just met her but you can't be with her can't be changed.
I'm asking myself why it's so fast, I hope I didn't meet you in a dream for the first time, I hope it's true right away, I hope I've been with you for a while.
Even if I want to hold your hands and feel your hugs, I can't. Even if I want to repeat the word "I love you" to you again and again while I see the smiles on your lips, it's gone, it's not because you don't have it anymore.
I look back again and again since the first time I saw you in my dream. That was the first time my world stopped and the first time I saw how beautiful the world was.
I don't know when my pain and longing for her will go away, or if it will really go away.
I slowly walked towards her grave. It's been 1 year since she died but until now we are all still mourning who she left behind. It's like only yesterday, it's like only yesterday I could still see her smiling but now she's gone.
She has not appeared in my dream since the last time I dreamed of her. It hurts that even in a dream I can no longer be with her but I still believe what she said she was always by my side and watching me from afar.
I laid the flower I was holding on her grave, white roses, her favorite flower.
"It's been a year, but it still hurts."
I wipe my tears that are starting to drip.
"I'm missing you so much."
I remember what she told me that I shouldn't be sad, but I can't.
"But still thank you, thank you because you have been a part of my life. Thank you for teaching me how to love. Thank you Cams ..."
I smile even though my tears keep falling. Sometimes I wish that one day when I wake up she will be here again.
I want you back but I know I can't. But I know eventually I will accept it. Not now but soon.
But now, let me be sad first.
"Thank you for letting me love you… while I was sleeping."
I turned my back on her grave and walked away carrying all our worries.
THE END.
