Beneath the cold glare of the desolate dark night, and the uncountable shimmering light of the stars, Mikhail stood on the soft yet firm grains of sand. Looking at the shining crescent that reflected on the black inked ocean, while his hair softly flew by the shivery wind.
He tilted his head, perceiving my presence as he turned back and warmly gazed at me.
My heart fell to my stomach. I took few steps closer, unaware of my surroundings.
"Is that really you?" I asked him, receiving a pleasant smile from him but a really painful look in his eyes.
"Yeah." he chocked out, clearing his throat as his smile instantly disappeared.
I wanted to hug him. I wanted to hug him really bad. But my legs were barely able to move from how shaking It was.
"Where were you all this time?" I cried, shaking my head at him in heartbreak.
"It doesn't matter." he exhaled, frustratingly. "I just came here to tell you-"
"I've been searching for you since forever." I cut him off, tears running down my cheek.
He calmly sighed, as though my words to him didn't mean anything.
It was strange seeing him that way. He looked guilty and quite regretful being here with me.
He then reached to me with a frown. "Do not search for me, ever again." he commanded, in an aggressive yet protective way.
I took a step back, looking at him with disbelief. "What?"
"It's better that way." he stuttered, almost falling apart. "It's better for us to be distant."
"Mikhail, what are you talking about?!" I shouted through sobs as I reached for his arms and held it tight. "You know I can't live without you!"
"Yes, you can."
"Is this all because the way you do things with work? We talked about it many times and you're still not convinced that it's not that big of a deal as long as we love each other!"
"No, it's not what you're thinking."
"So you're just gonna leave me?!"
He put his hands on my shoulder and glared with stress, "I'm trying to protect you."
"That isn't protection. That's abandonment!" I cried out as I wandered through his eyes, only finding them to be cold and wicked looking at me. Only for me to realize one thing.
"You're not real, are you?"
He let go of me with another frown. "What?!"
"This isn't happening." I turned my back to him as I ran my fingers through my hair, trembling a bit. "This can't be real. I must be dreaming or hallucinating!"
