Beauty Of Love

I opened my eyes again and looked forward again, searching through the night sky once more. Only one thing kept coming back to my mind. One person. One girl.

"Lianna... why did you have to go?" I sobbed.

Another flash of bright light illuminated the field. Then silence overtook everything once more.

My body felt numb as I stood there. Tears still streamed down my face, and I couldn't even stop them. No matter how many times I try to get rid of my tears, they keep coming back.

Suddenly the sky darkened and a soft mist covered the place. It looked kind of eerie as the fog drifted away leaving nothing but darkness.

I turned around and noticed it was raining. Heavy, wet, heavy drops of water. They felt refreshing against my skin.

It felt like I've never been happier. So I laughed. Actually laughed. I couldn't help myself. My laughter sounded like I'm dying and the world is ending simultaneously at the same time.

It's strange. I don't remember ever feeling this happy. I felt complete again after hearing her voice. She's truly my angel.

I walked over to the bench again and rested against it.

 The air around me felt chilly as the temperature dropped considerably. The air was still humid, but the air itself felt nice.

I decided to close my eyes for a while and enjoy my moment in solitude. I haven't enjoyed this moment for quite awhile. I've always been stuck, alone. Never allowed myself to move on, or feel anything for someone. Even when I dated for a bit, I quickly realized that the relationship never worked out. Even after two years, I never thought of anyone else other than Lianna.

I remembered how we met, in a coffee shop, and how stupid we both were. That's when I realized I might be a little bit in love. At first I thought it was just my infatuation towards her, but after I realized, I was completely smitten. I felt like I can trust Lianna, like she won't hurt me and I was comfortable telling her everything. We talked for hours and hours without stopping and it was great. After we went to our second date I thought that perhaps it will work out between us and we'd become closer.

After that incident, I gave up on trying to meet new girls and I tried not to think about her, but somehow the guilt wouldn't disappear. As time passes, I just became numb and numbly went on. Until the day we broke up.

We weren't dating at the beginning. We met through mutual acquaintances at a coffee shop one day. We were sitting at a table drinking our iced coffees when she suddenly asked me out. I said yes immediately. I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her. After our first date I proposed to her, to marry her and start a family. She accepted my proposal immediately. We married in the church. Our wedding reception was beautiful, it looked absolutely wonderful in my opinion.

And then it all came to a end. We broke up soon after and went our separate ways. I moved away for a while and continued my career as a writer until it ended. I moved back here and started building a company which brought my happiness.

Today was our anniversary. Tomorrow will also be our last day together.
