Years Gone By

Today, I should face my fear.

She said the mantra over and over again. Not really ready to do what she was about to do. Too scared to discover the truth. Maybe it was too late, maybe it was not right. Maybe it was a mistake. She did not even know why she agreed to face the truth. She should just stay where she was. Happy with her life, leaving the past.

She sighed. Too tired to think about possibilities.  Maybe it was all now forgotten. Maybe she was the only one that had photographic memory. Or maybe not. She sat on her bed and looked toward the skyline through her hotel room’s window.

She could not help but thought...

They are now under the exact same sky and it is so frightening.

There was this little excitement that he tried to kill. If he recalled, he never had this kind of feeling anymore. It was long time ago, but why did his heart beat like it was never beating before. It made him realize how time passed like a blink of an eye. He tried not to smile to think about possibilities. 

He walked faster so he could arrive earlier. He basically did not know what to expect. Maybe she would not be there. Maybe she forgot. Maybe she had canceled. It would be a lie if those probabilities killed his joy a little.

Nevertheless, he could not help but thought...

They are now in the same city and it is so terrifying.
