"i'll never leave you..."
his words filled her ears.
the girl's heart thumped and started beating faster.
she looked at him.
with his eyes staring back at hers telling her to trust him with his words.
with their hands held together,
there's nothing in this world that the girl could've asked for.
except for one guy.
only for one guy.
that certain guy.
she bowed her head down.
and gripped tighter on his hand.
at that moment.
that very moment.
she can tell.
with him by her side,
there's nothing in this world that
she cannot do.
nothing would be impossible.
she felt the wind caressing her face.
as buses and cars pass by them.
at that moment,
the place where they were sitting does not matter.
just the feeling of having each other side by side makes it more perfect than staying in a high-class, five-star venue.
the coldness of the night.
the dimness of the sky.
the stars shedding lights on them.
just perfect.
perfect night.
from that time on, she started believing.
"we'll eventually get through this.
get through this: together."
she held on to his promise
that he'll never leave her no matter what.
but this world always has its twist on fate.
days passed.
things started going crazy.
with so much unpredictable mood swings and misunderstandings,
they have to take a halt.
put a stop at everything.
they haven't seen each other for a while.
for days.
for weeks.
they just let those hours pass them by.
nobody cared.
except for the girl who still believes in her guy's promise.
wait.
he was never hers.
he just promised her he'll stay.
despite the distance and the time.
the girl decided to wait for the guy's return.
the promise.
the one the girl holds on to.
the only thing that makes this girl strong.
started to fade.
like a perfectly built sandcastle which the waves started to little by little destroy.
she tried to revive things back.
but it never happened.
the hope.
the possibility of them ending up together.
the only chance that she's been asking for can't now be granted by the guy.
for he then started drifting away.
fading in the lights.
and nowhere else to be found..
as all of these were happening,
her world fell down.
with no comfort from her existence
her dreams started to rip off in front of her face.
she couldn't believe what she's going through.
how could it happen to a person with so much love to give?
so much attention to share?
so much care to impart?
how could it happen to someone
who can truly love somebody?
who can give her full loyalty and trust?
there's nothing else that she can do.
than to move on.
she started to
go back to her usual days.
go back to her usual activities.
go back to her usual life.
what she had undergone is indescribable.
without enough words to term the pain that she had to take in
and the pain that she had to forget.
she started to open her eyes again.
looking directly at the most inimical non-living object that God ever made: the world.
the world that was once cruel.
the world that was once had been deleterious and detrimental to an innocent life.
her journey with that first ever love that she was able to really feel did not last.
but the feelings she has for the guy still remained.
she never dreamed of being with somebody else other than that special guy.
she'd included him in her prayers.
in the hope of being with him forever.
though stepping on forward would never be easy for her with all the love that she's ready to give
she has to face it.
looking ahead.
inch by inch.
she has to move on
with the prospect of achieving lifetime happiness.
this time
with somebody else.
