         She was still trying  to recall those memories.She ought to visit those places where they held hands and kissed under the moonlit night.She caught herself staring at an empty void,wondering why everything ended up so easily that she wished the time stops in those sweet moments together.

A dawdle of time occurred when she was caught by the grip of his almost emerald eyes.She found herself giggled when those fine wrinkles at the corner of his eyes appeared when he started to smile.His stench of scent couldn't let her sleep at night.She was so into him.

It was a gloomy day for Amara,unfinished tasks,queue of unanswered modules and household chores left her bothered.It was the same routine everyday,she barely took a rest.

"Ting", a ring in her phone awakened her being.She wasn't that girl she was a few seconds before,she was now the complete opposite with a strawberry on her face.She was flattered upon reading his text messages saying he was on the way to her house and they'll be having a date,so she danced and leaped in delight.

That face,that very face was the man in her dreams.That eyes who melt her mourning heart.She  still couldn't believe that they ended up together, when he was this amazing lad who was dreamed by everyone,a rare gold indeed.Her life was almost perfect, a life that anyone could wish for.

But a twist in time ended her almost fantasy love story, for there was another she in his life.Then all of a sudden, she then saw herself out of the highlight.This made Amara's heart shattered into pieces.

All she can do is to get herself up and carved herself in the memory  his voice that whispered as swift as the wind blows,those pictures that they took while they were enjoying themselves beneath the canopy of blue sky haunt her so bad,she then opened her cabinet where she hid all the  gifts she received from him.

But what happened next made her wail in so much excruciating pain-they weren't there instead of a book,she knew she wasn't the ideal woman for him,for she was real and he's just a fictional character.
