I sit on top of the hill, watching the sun sets slowly. All of a sudden, flashbacks of all my favorite moments with the love of my life started to roll in my brain like a movie. All the memories that made the most impact in our lives.

"Edward! Stop it" I yelled as he continued to run after me. He had been chasing me around his house for what seems like forever now. I feel so tired from running and laughing.
"You are such a tickle monster" I told him as he caught up with me once again. He continued to tickle me until I can't breathe anymore.
"Twin, stop, I cannot breathe anymore. Time out twin" I told him again.
We were supposed to be doing our homework but not without having fun first.

"Marydale Entrata? Will you be my girlfriend?" Edward asked me.
I felt the tears rolling down my face. "Are you sure?" I asked.
"I'm sorry it took this long before I finally realized that you are the girl I want to say good morning to everyday. The girl I want to text random messages throughout the day. The girl I want to be smiling all the time. The girl who is always there for me. The girl I fell in love with with, slowly but surely. Yes I am sure twin. I am very sure, so I will ask again, will you be my girlfriend?" he asked. His eyes screamed of love and happiness.
"Yes." I answered, my voice shaky.
"I love you Marydale. I love you. I love you" he screamed as he hugged me tightly.
"I love you too Edward. So much" I answered back. I let my body relax in his arms and stayed there.

"Edward! Slow down!" I reminded him as we sped up through the highway with his new convertible car. He looked so happy with the gift that he received from his parents. We immediately took it out for a spin. We drove with the roof down, music blasted, and dancing to the music.
"Okay love, I know you like it slow" he said as he winked at me.
I hit his lap lightly as I smiled.
"Ohh, feisty! Later baby, for now, let me enjoy my new baby" he grabbed my hand and planted a kiss on it.
I smiled back at him.

*beep*
I received a text message from Edward. When I opened it, I realized that it is a picture.
Edward: Babe, look what Laura made me try on. I look so ugly. Will you still love me even if I wear clothes like this baby?
I smiled at his message. He looked so adorable and for sure, Laura just made him try that on for fun. Though I admit he still looks so handsome.
To Edward: You could be wearing a sack and I'd still love you baby.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY LOVE!" Edward screamed in our room. I got up and started to rub my eyes.
"Thank you baby" I told him as he kissed me on my lips.
He was holding a cake on one hand, and balloons on the other. He set them aside on the table as he sat on our bed. I pulled the blanket up and covered my body. I welcomed my birthday in my birthday suit, courtesy of Edward of course.
He started to kiss my neck, my ear, and my lips. I started to respond to his kisses.
"Happy birthday baby" he kissed me again and this time, we both got lost in the heat of the moment once again.

"I can't do this anymore Maymay" he told me as he paced back and forth in front of me.
"That! That is where you are good at, giving up! Jesus Christ Edward!" I yelled back in frustration.
"Giving up?! I have been fighting for this relationship for so long already. Because I want this to work, I want us to work! But I am so fuckin' tired already. I can't do it anymore Maymay. Let's end this now before we start to hate each other" He told me, and if I am not mistaken, a tear started to roll down his face.
"Too late Edward, I already hate you" I told him and and for a moment, it seemed like he wanted to walk towards me. But he left, he just left.

"Ate May, he has a new girlfriend already" Yong informed me, a mutual friend of Edward and I.
"Who?" I asked in denial, though I know who he was referring to. Of course I knew, I stalk Edward's social media on the daily.
"Edward Ate May. Edward has a girlfriend now" he told me and I faked a smile.
"He deserves to be happy" I smiled. "even if it's with someone else" I added in my head.
---
I look to the horizon, watching the sun say it's final goodbye for the day.
"Edward" I whisper his name to the wind.
"Edward" I say a little louder this time.
"EDWARD!!!" I yell as tears start to roll down my cheeks.
"Edward" I sob.
"It hurts, you know? It hurts that you are happy, it hurts that you've moved on. Do you remember me at all? All our memories?" I cry.
"It's like we never happened, was it just a lie? If what we had was real, how could you be fine?" I continue to talk to the wind as I sob.
"Cause Edward, I'm not fine at all" I bawl as I cover my face with my hand and cry all the pain away.
