"Where are you going?"

Mom said as I tied the laces of my white sneakers. "Mom, it's our 6th anniversary and I can't be late!"

I kissed her and ran out through the door. I checked the time and it says 6:45. "Ah I can't be late and keep him from waiting."

I ring a taxi and told him my destination.
I'm so nervous right now. I told myself while holding the silver box. I hope he likes my gift. Inside is a book i made. It contains all about him, how i fell for him, how he makes the butterflies in my stomach go crazy and so much more.

I looked outside the window and just stared at the twinkling stars. We loved gazing up the stars. We gaze at them if we feel or want to open up something. Sometimes we just... want to see them shine upon us. And it's the most beautiful thing we always do.

The taxi suddenly stopped, also bringing me back at my senses. "We're here miss"
Oh goody! I thanked him and went outside. I waited for the taxi to be out of my sight.

I stared at the entrance of the park. This park was our favorite. It's also where we star gaze, have picnics, and do what we love. So i went inside and searched for him.

I kept searching here and there while I hold the small silver box in my hands. It is a bit dark but the street lights guided me. "Where is he? Is he hiding from me?" I don't want to think that he forgot about our anniversary.

What if he did? No Sky don't think of that. He isn't the kind of guy to forget a special occasion. I kept searching the park. It was chilly and I was just wearing a this strapped dress.

"Where the heck is he?" I was loosing hope.
Until, "ehrm" EEK! Someone was behind me! Is it a ghost?
I looked behind me slowly and...
It was him, Jhustin. He was dressed casual which I loved. Those beautiful ocean blue eyes just kept staring at me... blankly. "Oh hi Jhus-" he suddenly backed away from me. What's wrong? Is he not okay? "What's wrong Jhustin? Are you okay? Is something wrong?" I kept telling him but he just lowered his head, looking at the grass. I was about to give him another hug, but...

"Jhustin! There you are!" A blondie was running in heels towards... us? Who is she?

When she reached us, I can't believe what she just said to me. "Who are you? His sister?" What did she called me??? His sister?! "Excuse me but I should be the one who is asking you that question. Who are you and why are you calling him earlier like a maniac?" I think i just made her mad because I called her a maniac. It is true, she kept calling my boyfriend while running in heels. "Uhm? He's my boyfriend. Now did that answer your question? Now answer mine!"

Her answer almost made my knees lose balance. I looked at Jhustin who was still not making any eye contact to blondie and me. "Jhustin? Really? In our 6th anniversary?! Why? Am i not enough? Should I color my hair too?"

"Sky.. i-it's a-"

"DON'T TALK TO ME! WHAT WE'RE YOU DOING?! I LOVED YOU THAN I EVER LOVED MYSELF! I THOUGHT WE HAD SOMETHING SPECIAL? NOW YOU'RE DATING BLONDIES, KISSING THE-"

"Sky calm dow-"

"No! I am not obeying to some jerk who just cheated on me!" I threw the gift box at him. The contents went out. I can't take it anymore. I ran away as fast as I could, just to get away from them. "Sky!"

I was being deaf at the moment. I can only feel my heart being shattered to pieces. Why? Am I really not enough? Am I not worth fighting for? My knees can't take it anymore. I just kneeled at the grass while my tears became waterfalls, making my sight blurry. I just kneeled and sat there for a minute.

After 1 hour, which was like forever to me, I stood up and tried to walk myself out the park.

While i was walking, memories of us flashed through my head. Times when we ate ice cream there, played like stupid kids, had picnics, and stare gazing. All the thoughts gave me a headache. I tried erasing them off but I can't. It was just too special for me. Maybe not for him. "Miaw~"

I was knocked back at my sense when a cat called me. I stared at it and so did he. "What do you want?" My tone maybe gave the cat the scares, and ran away.

I wish I was just a cat. Not even knowing a single thing in the universe, not knowing why I even was living in this dang earth where people hurt and play with you.

I walked out of the park.
I kept walking until I noticed I was with busy people. I studied them. They all are waiting for the red light to turn green. One was having a call from his boss, One was with her daughter, One was holding groceries, and one hurt my eyes. It was a cute couple holding hands. My phone started ringing. It was mom. I just looked at the screen, not answering it. She might be worried about me. "I'm sorry mom. I can't take it anymore. Always remember that i love both of you and dad." The ringing stopped and the screen said "missed call from: ♡Mom♡"

The crowd of busy people started walking. The red light turned green. Cars we're stopping. I decided to walk with them. But my knees felt weak. Suddenly..
I can't move. My feet was nailed in the road. Cars we're beeping like crazy. But i was deaf at the moment of realizing, I can't live anymore. He was the reason I lived. He was the reason I loved myself. Without him. I can't live. At the screaming crowd that was already at the other side, one caught my eye. It was an old lady. She was far but I didn't know why I was hearing her whisper.

"Don't worry my child. I'll make your wish come true, but make sure you won't regret it."

"Sky!" I turned my back and saw him. I saw his face, worried and sad. But it was just a glimpse of it. Then... it was gone..

                                I was gone
