2 years later...
As every day passed by. Life continues to move forward. I have become the governor of the EverEase village as promised by the different governors.
I studied very hard about political affairs and managing the village expenses and priorities. And I manage to study that all in just two years.
And after two years, I become the governor of EverEase. People still know my name, about being the hero between the Madden and Sanchez war. So, some people are nice to me and praise me but some who are jealous, want to kill me in their heads.
I know being a governor is a huge responsibility and you must be careful in your reputation because in a wrong move and it will bring me down.
But, for me, it doesn't matter anymore. Because I know who I am now and I have to try things that I haven't done before.
Before, I tried to live by myself because I don't want any interaction with someone I cannot trust. But today, I tried to live like a normal being with my friends, Emma, Rea, and Elli.
I found them really interesting people and I started to try new things that I haven't tried before with them.
Drinking until we got wasted and enjoying the night. Shopping with them in the department store. I never have done it before but I find it amusing today.
They teach me every day and give me something that I will never forget and that is our memories and friendship.
As our lives continue to grow and evolve I realize that we should still try to enjoy our little time. Every time we did something, we always happened to look at it and remember, so, maybe a little enjoyment will do just fine.
In the morning, I wake up in my bed, my head hurts so much because last night, Emma invited us to her bridal shower. She brought us to a bar and told us that she would enjoy it before she tied the knot between her and Ethan.
And by tying the knot means getting married to my Uncle. I really did not expect them to get married after 3 years.
Yesterday- Night: 9:30 p.m
"Oh my god, you really are marrying her uncle aren't you?" Rea said. "I do actually, as you know he is a great man. He treasures me like a queen and after marrying him I will treasure him like a king." The girls clink their glasses and drink. When Elli turns the table around me.
"How about you Alexandra? Have you thought of being in love with someone?" Then they giggle. I drink the wine, smile, and said, "I still haven't think about it because I have to prioritize my mother and the village as it still continues to grow." I explain. But they continue to tease me and said, "okay if you say so but I think you are actually waiting for someone." Rea said. "Ohhh, someone spill it now," Elli added. I just smirk and drink again.
After the girls got waisted, I told my driver to bring the girls to their home safely and I will just walk because my house is nearby. They insisted to bring me home first, but I also insisted that I will go home alone so I could walk in the park. The driver agrees but I still have to bring the guards with me for my protection.
The night was young and bright as the moon is full and white. I sit in the chair in the park and get my phone and headset out of my bag. I listen to one of my favorite song "The End of the World" to calm myself.
Hearing the lyrics, followed by its melody and meaning. I look at the sky thinking if the world does end what will happen to us. Maybe, there is no pain, suffering, sins. But it will also mean losing hope, love, and acceptance.
Then, when it's time to go home now. I saw children playing at the park at night. They look happy and enjoying it.
Looking at them, suddenly made me remember Bryan and Ava. I become emotional a bit and understand now why the future me tell me about it. "Yeah, you are right. They are actually wonderful" I smiled and wipe the tears in my eyes. I also put my phone back in the bag and stand. Then suddenly, I see someone unexpected.
"Nice meeting you again, Ms. Madden," he said smiling. I was surprised seeing him and said, "George... It's you... I..." I cannot think of anything to say so I breathe in and out first and said smiling, "it's nice meeting you as well. Mr. Mane."
George is the lost son of the Mane family from the Mane Village. His father, the governor, thank me for taking care of their son. But... he never visits us in those two years until now.
"Well, George is fine you know Ms. Madden" he replied. I smiled and said, "then you should call me Alexandra as well, George." Then he smiled.
Instead of going home alone, George walk me home and told me everything.
He said that he was gone and never visit 2 years ago because he decided to become a soldier. After years of training with my father, he decides to become a soldier to protect the people and their nation. And now, he is back and got promoted easily because of his talent and great effort. He also becomes a First class sergeant at his age.
"So, that's what happened when you are gone," I said. Then he stops walking and looked into my eyes saying, "I am sorry I never got the time to say goodbye to you or to your mother. But..." He then put my hair behind my ears and said, "but I never forget you even for one moment."
