-cherish-

The girl ran around the woods trying to find even a small glimpse of the pond but she admitted she was lost.

(Y/N) sat down on behind a rock and rested for a while, her breath quickens and she was struggling to breathe, her face was tinted red from the run and her legs felt like noodles.
She never ran like that before, it was new.
(Y/N) lifted her hand and touched her cheeks, it was warm and she felt sweat ran down her forehead making a small ticklish sensation ran down her chin.

(Y/N) likes the feeling of running.
It was just like the pleasant feeling Camilo described, her chest pounded that she couldn't manage to calm down even though she ordered herself to.

Wiping off the sweat from her forehead, the girl stood up and managed to gather all her strength to stand back up again. The bright sun was peaking through the gaps of the leaves from the tall trees, it was hot yet the cool breeze made it bearable. (Y/N) looked around the woods and examined all the trees and bushes she passed through.
Finally, something caught her eyes.

It was a beautiful garden full of lively flowers with completely different colors!
The girl admitted that Isabella's purple and pink flowers were getting too boring to look at and what made (Y/N)'s eyes widen was the sight of the beautiful scenery that she couldn't help but walk closer but the plants caught her attention. Coming to a conclusion that some plants were orchids, quickly hyped up, the girl ran towards the orchids and stared.

The girl picked crouch down to look at the pretty white orchid hanging low on a short bush. It was a small heart-shape orchid, white colored petals and yellowish stems. Founding it fascinating, she broke one stem after another. Another plant caught her attention, Ada aurantiaca, an orange orchid with a shape of a bellflower but has long V-shape petals rather than the small round ones. Finding it mysterious, she broke again one stem after another so on so forth.

The girl would often stumble down to the ground because of the bushes that caught her skirt and she often has to touch the dirt to catch her balance but she didn't care, the flowers were too ethereal that she couldn't ignore it, wiping her forehead once in a while to wipe the sweat, oblivious to the smudge dirt she smeared on her-now reddish-face.

"(Y/N)?! (Y/N)!"
A voice called, (Y/N) gasped at the sudden sound only for Camilo to stumble her way.
"(Y/N)?!" Camilo smiled brightly, looking up at the girl. Upon seeing who it was, the girl ignored the curly haired boy and continued to pick flowers.

Disappointed with the non-welcoming impression, Camilo sighed and gritted her teeth "Where have you been?!" Camilo stood up and dusted himself from the fall, his eyebrows were furrowed due to the fact that the girl ran off without giving a proper goodbye which he found very disrespectful.

Wanting to scold the cold-hearted girl more, Camilo walked over to the girl and opened his mouth to speak "Abuela has been looking all ove-" he closed his mouth, to shut up.

(Y/N) turned around, her face was full of dirt smudges and her hair was all over her shoulders and is full of flower petals. (Y/N) was now holding a bouquet of flowers and orchids, carrying a lot more than she was able to carry.
Camilo stared at her with a shocked expression, was this the girl that despise him?

"do you know about this place?" (Y/N) questioned. Camilo shook his head as a response which made (Y/N) nod in relief "these flowers are pretty, we should plant them in the Belonged" the girl suggested which Camilo immediately agreed.

"I'll bring Isabella over-" Camilo was stopped by (Y/N) who was furrowing her brows as an angry look "You can't!" the girl exclaimed.
"why not? it'll be a lot faster" Camilo stated but the girl was upset "then it won't be secret anymore," The confused boy's face heated up "why does it matter?"
"because then..." the girl paused,
"It won't be as special as when only the two of us know, if people know about that place then what makes it special?"

Looking down, the girl was thinking for a moment "If everyone know about that place then it'll be titled as common" she was overthinking, overwhelmed of what might happen if someone finds out about the place "Hey-hey, it's okay! Isabella won't come" Camilo placed his hands on the girl's shoulder, feeling her tense up and squeeze the flowers closer to her chest "we'll plant more flowers if you want, w-we'll get right on that as soon as possible okay?"

(Y/N) looked at Camilo with her (e/c) eyes that was filled with worries, Camilo gave a small smile making the girl calm down a little.
(Y/N) looked around and saw the beautiful scenery again, trees peaked through the gaps of the leaves, the bushes full of flowers and leaves were sitting right in front of them.

"Can you believe it?" (Y/N) said,
"believe what?"
"this," she mentioned to her surrounding,
"all of this is just a small portion of the resources available for making flowers and plants on this planet" Camilo laugh at her antics before sitting down on the grass making the girl look at him in confusion.
"I mean, yeah! do you know how many lands and seas out there with different flowers, fishes, and even animals! who knows what's out there" Camilo sighed, he was happy to think all of these things with the person who rarely holds conversations.

"I want to see it all"
Camilo look at the girl, shocked once again.
It wasn't a order but rather, she hoped and wishes to see it all.

"want to see it with me?" Camilo questioned, the girl was smiling and nodding "Oh, Camilo!"
The girl called dramatically, she hugged the flowers closer and looked beyond the trees and up the sky where clouds swiftly pass them "I must see it all, I must stay awake for this living fantasy!" it's a pretty sight...

Camilo's heart was thumping so fast that he could hear it, the girl was beautiful with her lips curving upward, her eyes were glistening and squinting at the sky, her once pale skin turned more tan and reddish. (Y/N) once was a petite small girl but she gained weight and was alive than ever. The once ugly mistress has changed and turned into a pretty girl.
How fast the time passed, how quick the girl changed yet how old the world was to still keep blooming.

"do you wish to see the stars?" Camilo questioned, the girl thought for a moment "I have seen the stars, but your house kinda blocked the view" Shaking his head, he stated "behind Casita, you'll see the most upmost stars. Casita won't mind us walking on her roof" The girl immediately agreed, she wanted to cherish the moment, she wanted to see it all.

Everyone has their ideal picture of what heaven looks like, (Y/N) had one too.
A place just like the Belong, she needed to have every details to picture of what heaven looks like.

People tend to think heaven is full of nature and ethereal, a place where one can have pleasure and forget all their worries, (Y/N) wanted that so she decided to cherish what she found pleasing and beautiful. (Y/N) decided to cherish what she has on earth and name it her heaven.

If hell exist and earth is were it's held, counting age is our trials then again, she was over that, she wanted to reach this goal of not just surviving but living the most of it.
she needed that.
