"Who are you?"-asked the beautiful monster

He did not answer my question instead he smile.

I look at his eyes. Then he offered me his hands. He asked: "Shall we?".
Then we dance. It is just me and him. "Are you happy right now?"-he asked.
"Yes definitely. Im the happiest girl alive."
"I wish this song would never end."-he said.
"Me too. Im glad you are with me. By the way. Who are you?"
"I am..."

"Aula, wake up!"

Huh? It is just a dream?

"Eon, what are you doing here?"-I asked him.
"Remember, today is our anniversary my princess."-He is my boyfriend. And no. He is not the man in my dream. In our world we are destined to be with someone to the rest of our lives. We don't have any choice. At the age of 18 we must be a couple. Then at the age of 25 we are required to get married. At the age of 80 we are supposed to die. That is kind of world we have.

"Oh. Eon, ofcourse I remember."-I need to act and think like them. I need to be a perfect girl again. Or else I'll die. They will kill me once they know that I am no longer like them.

"Ofcourse,you'll never forget. Take a shower."-I saw a glimpse of sadness in his eyes.
Can he feel the same way I feel? Can he also feel something?

We are already at the beach. Just like other people we are talking and eating. It feels like we are just a robot and a doll who are the same just like the others. It is just like a program. It is so boring and dull.

A memory keeps running in my mind.

I went to the old library of our house. It has a secret door and I think even my parents don't know this place. I need an answer to all my questions.

As I was looking around. I saw a diary. It was written during 2015. A thousand of years ago.

"January 1, 2015

New life. New smile. People don't want to get hurt anymore so they put up something in our hypothalamus. So we would never feel any emotions and we will be perfect. But unlike the others I can still think and feel. I don't know why? I overheard their conversation that if ever anyone can feel or not perfect enough they will kill that person. I am so afraid but I need to hide. My emotions and be perfect like them. I need to live."

Suddenly I feel so scared.

I wanna run but I don't know how.
I just feel the tears in my cheeks. I don't know what to do anymore. I can't read this for now but I'll bring this whenever I go. Maybe it has the answers to all my questions.

"Hey Aula? You are idle for awhile"
"I am just thinking."-I said with no emotions but deep inside my heart. I am worried and afraid.
"Maybe we should go back."-he said.

While walking in the seashore. Something happened that I didn't expected.
