Remember

The Burden

“Once more into the fray, into the last good fight I will ever know live and die on this day” I heard this quote from a movie and somehow I can relate… 

I am Ruby. I had a friend named Ace, Who I really like. He was my friend for about 5 months, but it feels like years. He is very Mysterious, Sweet and Really Cute (as in HOT!!) I always wanted to tell him how I feel but I can’t find the time… until…

(A person sitting on the ledge of a building rooftop) 

Unknown: I wonder and ponder everyday where will my path take me…  I question if I will ever have a place in this world, but…

(2 hours earlier)

Ruby: Hey guys have you seen Ace? 

Gale: No… why?

Ruby: Cause he has been gone for quite some time

Clem: Don’t worry about him. You know he likes to walk around, for sures his fine.

Ruby: Yeah, but it’s past 2 hours

Gale:  Wow, you’re quite worried about Ace. You like him don’t you?

Ruby: NO!! I am just worried about him.

Clem: Well she does have a point that he has been gone for quite some time

(Ace comes)

Ruby: Ace!! Where have you been??

Ace: I was just walking around

Ruby: Really? And it takes you 2 hours!

Ace: Yeah…

Gale: See I told he’s fine

Clem: Actually I said that...

Gale: Yeah, yeah… whatever… come on let’s do something I am bored

Ruby: Why not we head to the Plaza and do our project there?

Clem: Ok, shall we go?

Ruby: What do you think Ace? (Looks at Ace and finds him gazing at the sky, while he was holding a shell in his hand) Hey… what’s that Ace?

Ace: Nothing… (He kept the shell) What were you asking me again?

Ruby: Do you want to go to the Plaza?

Ace: Yeah… Why not…

While we were heading towards the Plaza, I had time to think about Ace… He was acting strange as in stranger than before as if he was keeping something. I don’t know…

(While at the Plaza) 

Clem: So what will we do?

Gale: We need to make a poster about peace.

Ruby: Ok, Clem and I will handle the cutting

Gale: I will do the design. Want to help Ace?

Ace: Sure

While we were making our project, Clem cut her hand and something weird happened…

Clem: Ouch!!

Ruby: What happened? Are you ok?

Clem: Yeah I am ok. I just pricked my hand that’s all

Ruby: CLEM!! You’re not ok! Look! The cut went across your hand!!!

Clem: I am ok, seriously…

Ruby:  No it’s not ok! GALE!!! GALE!!! Get over here!

Gale: What’s the comotion here?
