Synopsis
Sora, do you remember the time when we first held hands? It was during a spring festival that our highschool was hosting. The sun was just beginning to set, and the phoenix orange light was trickling in through the leaves of the trees. I remember you grabbing my hand, and off we ran away because you didn't want to help our classmates clean up the rest of the booths. You probably don't know this, but that was the time it felt as if I could breathe for the first time again. As you held my hand softly, anxiously dragging us both into the light patch of trees just behind the school as you were trying not to get caught. You let go, and started giggling, and began speaking about random things about our classmates and about yourself. I only sat quietly beside you, listening to your low voice, and staring at the light that wiggled it's way in through the leaves of the trees. And as I sat there, enjoying the warm heat radiating from you as we sat side by side. And I realized, I really did love you back then. So tell me, Sora, tell me how did things end up like this 10 years later. ------------------------------------------------------------- Enjoy this heart breaking story of a women, 10 years later, who looks back at her life in highschool and analyzes her relationship with her husband as it slowly falls apart.

Chapter 1 - I Loved You (Introduction)

There are many beautiful things in this world. For example the way that the sky's reflection could be seen in your caramel brown eyes, or the way that your smile could glisten like the twinkly light in the sky at night. I also loved the way your chest would rise up and down when you laughed and the way you would tilt your head down just so that your chin could touch the top of my head when we hugged.

When we would walk home together 10 years ago, you would always slide your slim and larger hands into mine, knowing how well we fit into together so perfectly. Just like a puzzle piece. Our little 16 years old minds thought we could rule the world together....oh how stupid were we to think that. Silly you. Silly me.

I remember that in our 10th grade, you had finally confessed your feelings to me. Our innocent love was so pure, you and me, with our 16 year old minds promising for things to stay for eternity. But it does not.

Like all beautiful things in the world, it must come to an end. The glistening lakes will become sheets of ice. Trees so full and grand, will shed their voluminous hair. The flowers that bloom in May, will have no strength against time's scythe. Even the steel gates, something so strong, will rust away it's strength.

Oh how I really did love you. You were my medicine, my addiction, my armor. You were as warm as spring's day and like a breathe of fresh air.....but you were also my poison.

So tell me, Sora, tell me how-.....no, don't. Because 10 years ago we would have never expected this. And like all beautiful things, eventually, something so strong...must end.
