Chereads / Knight's Rollback / Chapter 7 - Chapter 6 : Perfect Melancholy

Chapter 7 - Chapter 6 : Perfect Melancholy

"Honestly, I love Knight..."

"...but this damaged timeframe makes me feel that loving him was wrong..."

"...or it only means that we are not destined to love each other until we die because our fate or destiny was changed."

"Maybe because the time invested between us was not enough and Aren was right."

"It was lacking and needs more years for foundation."

My phone was ringing and I answered it.

"Ah, Bright is calling." I said so I immediately answered my holographic phone.

I saw her running.

"Lyrids, John's dead body was sent at the Ameron.

I was shocked, so I hurriedly go to the area while running.

Ameron was the place where they releases the dead body, they covered by wax, found or sent by another time traveler from different time.

While running I cried, I'd never thought that it would happen to him. Truly, our timeframe was changed, he must not die but he died too young.

I saw everyone inside the room. They were crying.

"John..." I said with tears falling and I'm wiping it.

Bright, hugged me with sadness. She cried hardly.

John's body was covered by a wax. His parents and all of us has no idea about his death. It was confidential, in order for us not to go back in time to save him. The authority believe that it was his time and it should not be change because if someone made a minimal change, more people will die soon.

It was after 3 days when they buried John.

I am alone looking at the beach while sitting to the bench. I am very sad and can't believe that his life ends so fast. He was only 23 year-old too like me.

Knight came for me.

"He unexpectedly died, though in the fast, a time traveler of him at the age of 28 visited you on planet Earth." Knight silently said that makes me a little mad.

"It was because of you."

"...because you make minimal change in our time frame!"

"John won't die if you didn't ask me to marry so early!" I blame him.

"You already know it?" Knight asked.

"Yes! This is enough! I tried to accept everything about it! I tried to adjust for you but this death makes sense!" I shouted on him.

"Okay, let's cancel our wedding this coming month." Knight said on a serious face.

"Leave me alone Knight! I don't want to see you anymore!" I shouted and became angrier about what I heard.

Knight walks away and after that I cried hardly while looking to the beach. I think it was the right thing to do. I should not marry Knight and let's be separated now.

Knight went back on planet Earth and sadly talked to Teddy.

"Lyrids and I fight for the first time and break."

"She knows that I damaged our time dimension that caused John to die at the age of 23." Knight explained to Teddy.

"I apologized Knight. I told her everything. It was my fault." Teddy confessed his sin to him.

After 1 week, I decides to apologize to Knight. I looked for him but he was gone at his two house. Iwas trying to track him down but he was hidden and he moved to unknown place.

While walking,I saw the lists of robots to be demolish, I was shocked to see Teddy as one of them. I bougth the time robot at the shop and realized that it was truly Teddy. I turned the power ON but unfortunately, his memory card was removed and his function as time machine was not programmed.

"Knight destroyed him." I said while holding him tightly.

I hugged teddy and little bit cried.

After one month of searching to him while looking for job, I finally give up.

"It's my fault... I lost John and also Knight..."

I closed my palm and softly punched my aching heart.

"Knight was the first guy that I loved the most but he was also the first guy who hurt me hardly.

I cried hardly and went into my room. I lay my body to my black pillow and started to pray.

"Dear Jesus Christ, please light up my road and help me get out of this darkness to see the good things that lies ahead for me."

"Hmmm...Hmmm... It hurts ... I want to disappear ... I can't take this anymore..." I said.
