I was walking down the street under the faint light of the street lamps. There was a small lake alongside the road. I stopped walking and sat down on a nearby bench watching the beautiful scenery. The lake reflected the beautiful sky. The moon. The stars. I looked up and watched the few stars that were brightly shining in the sky. It's funny, right? It's funny how it only shows you a few stars. Only a few bright and beautiful stars. It's just like a human being. Only showing you what it wants you to see. Hiding all the ugly things just to appear bright. To appear beautiful.
My eyes wandered back to the water.
I remembered the old days.
I remembered the days he was still alive.
I remembered the days he tried to teach me how to swim.
And I remembered all the beautiful moments I had with him.
Quietly a tear rolled down my cheek. Soon many followed. I didn't move nor did I say anything. I was just sitting there expressionlessly while single tears were leaving my eyes. My head was full of thoughts.
Did that guy tell me the truth?
Was my love really just a bluff?
Was he really a killer?
No. That can't be.
It was ridiculous. Impossible.
It couldn't be true.
I didn't want it to be true.
I stood up and went towards the lake.
It wasn't true.
I hoped so.
I wasn't sure.
What I knew for sure was... I loved him. Truly. Being by his side again was the only thing on my mind. Everything else was meaningless.
Family. Friends. None of that mattered to me. Only he did. But he was gone. Forever.
I couldn't bear the thought of never seeing him again. I took a step. A step that brought me closer to him. Another step. Leaving everything behind me, blinded by seemingly endless love, I took another step. A last one. My last one.
