"Wait til I raise you on the trunk first!" I blasts away. He is just right behind me running. He grabbed my waist and lift me up high. "That's so unfair you wacky head! Let me go you punk!" We're happily playing even though he broke the rules. The day time turns out to be pretty fast. I come to a conclusion that I'm going to stay a bit long, and he would love it too. It turns out I never starve, nor any symptoms. "Come on... Let's go home." I told him. He was pleased. The bike is in our side unexpectedly. The seats are made for two. Emman had an idea from the song last night. "Daisy, you'll look sweet upon and seat of a bicycle made for two... Care to join?" He now calls me Daisy, but that's alright. I respectfully sat down on the back seat considering of my dress. He paddles the bike forward. It was such a fun moment grabbing his back and cherishing the sunrise. "Daisy, thank you that you give me strength to go on the reality. I was so scared. You saved me."
"No problemo senior." I welcomed him. We went back to where I've started. I stepped down on the soft ground. He hand me the gem. I took a few steps before I step on the right spot. "This is it!" I whispered with excitement. I raise the gem with all of my heart. A strong wind began to face me. The light from the gateway is starting to open.On the flip side, I didn't manifested Emman. He is in a sudden agony. He is breathing heavily and began thinking all of what the people has done to him. He retorted his mind to not continue. He dropped the bike violently and grabbed the gem. He tosses it through the ground, and the gem is shattered into smaller pieces. The gateway is vanished. There is one life remaining. One of us must go. I am disappointed, I didn't see that coming. "ARE YOU MENTALLY ILL?! HOW COULD YOU DO THIS? YOU ARE WAISTING LIVES!" I roared at his dimwitted idea.
"Hey listen to me Alexa, you don't need to leave. There's no work to solve problems. Every happiness that you've been missing on is just right here. You are destined to be here. You are destined to be in a granted place with me, and be in the weird and different world with me. You don't need to go!" He holds my wrist. He is suffering. "I can make you happy. This is what you wanted right? You said that you just willingly want to get away with these monsters trying to pull you away from happiness? You want to be in peace for life. Unfortunately, you don't have a person who makes you the joyous you. That is me Alexa. I also need someone. I extremely need someone who can spend the rest of my life with in a happy place, and that is you."
I never told him something like that before... How did he guessed that? Did he spy on me? He was surprised when we met. I said those words when I'm at the dorm. He must be pretending that he doesn't have any idea. "Hold on a sec. How did you know that? You... Lied." I let my wrist go off him powerfully. It was made in exasperation. He is in tears. "Look, I'm so sorry. I've been watching you from the other side at this whole time. Once you said those words I... I planned everything for you to be here. I'm the one who made you pass that gateway. Just please stay, we can be together without any more struggles in life." This is the hardest decision I've ever been thinking. It's worse than people taking advantage on me. I would love to be with him, but I am not playing games. Thus, he actually gave me a meaning to my life.
"Emman... I must say no. I have a family to feed. This isn't my home. I discerned something that even if you are in a peaceful place or in a monstrous place. The only thing that I can adjust is myself." I sighed for a moment. "I'm the one who's going to make my own path no matter what. Even if I'm in the most negative surroundings. I'm the only one who can turn it into a beautiful garden. I like you so much, but I do care myself more. So I must really pass the gate and you should respect my privacy. I can't force you to come if you don't want to, because it's your choice." I politely talk to him. I bent down and grab the last piece of living gem through the gateway. I raise it up high. A very brawny wind hitting us, but we're still stable. He embrace me from the back while waiting to open the gate. I stick my head into his cheeks. The gate finally opens. I looked back at him. I hugged him tightly for one last time.
"I guess this is a goodbye Daisy, look for someone who will protect you for the rest of your life on your own world. I wouldn't allow my beautiful girl to marry a stupid man who doesn't dance you on the moonlight, or in a sunset. Especially, I wouldn't allow my baby girl to stay with a man that doesn't make you... Happy." We sob for the last time. I look right into his splendid eyes and wiped it out with my thumbs. I walk slowly through the gateway. It is remarkably so bright that hurts my eyes. The light starts to fade away. Here I am. I'm at the tunnel. Which means I'm back at my world. I'm back at holding my bag and wearing my night shift uniform. I check on the time, it's still the same time as before.
Few months goes by, I decided to not let people take advantage of me. Karma always comes on the right moment. "For God sake Alexa just please do my homework! Daniel just broke up with me and I have no energy to make these." Martha was pleased. "I'm sorry Martha I've been doing for a millionth time and that's enough. Do it on your own. That'll help you get over with Daniel." I wink. "Gosh! You are so annoying!" Martha irritates, and I stay irrelevant. I denied the rest of the students who are also taking advantage of me, not just Martha. I can finally visit my parents without any left out problems.
"Congratulations darling for getting that diploma! We are so proud of you!" My mom is full of joy in her face. Having a diploma is great, but being with my own family is even better. I sit down on the porch waiting for my mom and dad to roast the steak as a celebration. I began to meditate my brain. I look at my wrist. It's Emman's bracelet. I'm wearing it. I'm questioning myself of what is he doing right now on the Granted world? Whatever he's doing right now, I hope it's okay. I hope his decision for not being able to join here is right for him. I can feel him by the fresh wind. Emman will always be in my mind. Even our world goes in separate ways, my feelings for him will stay the same. After all these years for not denying anyone's commands. I can finally do it by the help of him. Not all people comes to you are automatically destined for you, but some people just gives you a purpose to become a better person. That person is just like him.
