Countless Times

Prologue

Christopher

The sun is up at the sky shining brightly that Christopher never mind it. He was looking at Eve. Seeing her makes Christopher have the hope to encourage himself to love and tell her how much he felt about her, but that will make him sad and lonely. He's afraid she's gonna hate him, disliked him as he is. That will hurt Christopher more. Just like a stab in the heart, but Christopher knows everything about Eve. From the very beginning up until now. 

There he see her under the tree reading a book. A new book. Whenever Eve gets a new book she will cover it up in a plastic cover to protect it and read it under her favorite tree. That's how Christopher knows Eve. Christopher quietly look at her while he is sitting in a bench a few metres away from Eve reading a book she recently finished.

Eve has a brown hair, brown eyes, rosy cheeks and fair skin. She doesn't like to get in the sun that much, because she thought that ain't be healthy. She's a very smart girl always in top of her classes, and always, always laugh whenever she feels sad and lonely, but cry at her bedroom to burst out those feelings that she don't want the people to see her cry, but only her parents, friends, especially Christopher only saw her cry.

In every new page Eve turns so does Christopher, but he notice a guy quietly surprised Eve. That guy make Christopher angry and envious at the same time. Her friend Nigel. He has blond-brown hair, green eyes, and just like any dream guys girls mostly like to have. He's dreamy and sweet as Eve describe him, and there's another one behind Nigel. Olivia. Olivia has a strawberry blond hair, blue eyes and a skin just like Eve, but a little different from her. Olivia runs as fast as she can catching up with Nigel as he sits down with Eve beside her. Christopher heard them having a little conversation about this activity in their school. All of them are in a preparation committee.

Seeing that Eve cannot read anymore, she puts her favorite bookmark (which Christopher have also) and close her book and so did Christopher. Eve stand up as well as Nigel and walks away from the tree as Olivia keeps smiling at them. She make them come first and she looks up at Christopher that made him surprised. Seeing Olivia as she smiles at him that's almost like a smirk, and slowly moves her lips as if telling him something and with that she walks out and join Eve and Nigel.

While Christopher is thinking of Olivia's words he heard. "I will never forgive you!" Then again, he remembered something...no....not something....but....someone. Christopher closes his eyes as he regain that memory when he was just an ordinary guy....

   The full moon shines through as I was walking along a path. I felt that people who passed by were looking at me or maybe even glaring. It’s maybe because I have never been to this place. I’ve always loved to explore from countries to the most hidden places. I’m a kind of a lonely guy. I’ve always wanted to find the right girl who would make my heart skip a beat, the one whose smile is the first thing I’d see in the morning and the last thing before I sleep, but I haven’t found her yet.

   Then I met Sylvia. She had long, blonde, and curly hair, piercing green eyes, fair skin, rosy cheeks and finally her smile. I loved the way her eyes wrinkle and when her dimple appears when she smiles. I found it hard to approach Sylvia at first because every gentleman wanted her heart. Luckily we’re together now and we love each other dearly.

           ***************************************************************************

“Beware, Christopher.” whispered a brunette lady. She looked thin as if her sadness had consumed her beauty and she looked depressed and anxious. Her eyes were really dark. “Something very bad is going to happen. I’m warning you Christopher.” I was puzzled by what this strange lady spoke to me. Suddenly, the lady disappeared in thin air. I was searching around for her and when I turned my head I saw her standing in front of me and let out a deafening screech that made me fall backwards.

I woke up in the middle of the night sweating and my heart was beating rapidly. It was just a dream, but I felt that this dream had to mean something. Something bad.

           ***************************************************************************

Christopher opened up his eyes as if searching for that meaning behind his dream. Puzzled like a young lad determining how to be a strong man, but then again he is a strong man for he lived....a thousand years.
