Do You Still Remember?

I'm damn tired now, but, if there's a time to blog, it's now. i don't know why. inspiration. a simple and totally fictitious story which has simple random things i wanna do but have never (or mayb i have) done before. Don't give a shit about the story, it's completely random and it's purely made up as a closet for all my lil ideas. :)


She stared at him, the coldest stare he has ever received. He knew immediately, that she was all shattered inside. He did not know what to say, but after being on the receiving end of her stare for a few seconds, snapped his gaze away to the puddle of muddy water beside where she stood. "Do you still remember, the times when we sat under the rainbow and rubbed our feet into the sand? Do you still remember, the times when we crushed those aluminum cans under our feet and laughed so innocently at the sound they made?" She said in a shaky voice that belonged to someone in despair. Her voice started to become calmer as she continued, "I bet you've forgotten all these after being with her, right?" "Do you two do these stuff together too? Huh, HUH??"

"No." He replied. "I have not forg-otten. I have not forgotten al-so, the times we created our own songs, and, and sang te-rribly off-tuned to them." He struggled to finish his sentences as he was choked with emotions. "I also remem-ber, the times, the times when I was really down, when I felt the, the world stopped turning, you told me, to be strong, with a really de-termined look in your eyes." He tried to bring himself together, and strung the following together in more fluent English, "You brought me to the highest point in this country, and told me your sufferings, and i remember we told ourselves to be strong together."

The girl, mascara tracing the track of her tears, saw the loving feeling in his eyes again. She added, "yes, and we wished under the stars at night, and gazed into each other's eyes as we told each other our wishes in our minds, do you remember?"

"I remember." The boy forced a smile. "I also remember that time when you stole my bag but told me that another guy stole it and you got it back for me, and when i opened my bag to check if everything was inside, I found a post-it note on a cd. i even remember what was written on it, "this is your medicine for the rainy and melancholic days, or when you feel alone or down. Love, you-know-who. :) ""

"Haha. Yea I remember that. You even thought that was from a secret admirer, you bastard." She replied. "Yea..." Remembering the reason for their meeting, she went back to attack mode, "then tell me, why is your heart not with me anymore?"

"I..." He got taken aback for awhile. "The girl I'm with now, she's a sweetheart. There was once, she appeared outside my house after I casually told her I was bored. I remember once you told me that you could not sleep so I cycled to your house to accompany you. But you just told me to go home as your family was asleep and you did not want to wake anyone up." He gave a fake smile and continued, "did I look so free to you at that time?"

"So this is why you're leaving me?"

"Yes."

"No, I don't believe it's this simple. After TWO years, this ONE SHIT changed your heart?!"

"So what answer do you want?"

"I want the one that's from your heart."

"Fine. Do you still remember when you told me you love me?"

"Yes."

"What were we doing then?"

"We were at this lake. the water was crystal clear and it was sparkling under the majestic sun, and, and the sky felt so, so transparent, and we told each other we believed unicorns existed in that place because of how magical it looked."

"But what were we doing?"

"We were resting beneath this oak tree if I'm not wrong. We were there, doing nothing but taking in the cool breeze that floated onto our faces."

"Do you remember I asked you if I became blind, will you still want me?"

"Yes, and I said yes!"

"Well, I asked you that because a close friend of mine had got into a car accident a few days back from that day, and she lost her sight. Somehow after she was discharged she bumped into you on the road but she recognised your voice instantly. She wanted to say hi but instead of helping her up you told her, "well, blind people have a license to bump into others, huh?" Right?"

"What makes her so sure it was me?"

"Her mum was beside her. Remember Chloe?"

Her jaw dropped upon hearing that. "Well...Well.."

"Well? Well, you've got your answer."
