Four years ago.
The stiffness of the air was spreading like a virus. Sounds of screams and wails flooded the ears of the innocent. Children rushed inside the worn off red bricked building. The sky fading the sun away quicker than climate change could. The wind blowing the ankle length grass in wild directions as a pair of still feet laid bare flat on the surface. Her hair white like clouds and her skin a dark brown with a tint of blue. Her eyes attaches to another pair that stand a few feet in front of her but his seem to darken sadly every second that passes. "I won't see you for a while.." he states his partly matured voice trailing off towards the end of his sentence. Before the girl could speak the slightly tall boy closed the gap between them using one arm to grasp her shoulder pulling her into a hug. "Enzo promise you won't tell your father" the girl says her voice trembling with fear at mentioning him . The explosions, miles away from her school can be heard in the distance. "Xyla..This may be the last time I see you" Enzo whispers using his other hand to run through his hair while the other is holding Xyla. Enzo stays in that position catching one last glimpse of his first and only love. He cups her chin planting a light kiss on her lips slowly backing away before stopping one last time too look at Xyla's mesmerizing features. "I love you more than anyone will in the future...may we meet again!" Enzo states with certainty in his eyes . He returns to his movements across the now still grass which seems to have lost its color a little. Xyla stands there watching Enzo disappear within the gates and trees and off into the distance. Her body too shooken to move as her hands trail to her face and her fingers run over her tinted blue lips. "I love you" , "may we meet again!". Those words played over continuously in her head and she wondered why Enzo was leaving and how did this destruction come to be. Xyla collapses to the floor , her knees dug into the grass as if she was praying to an unknown spirit. Xyla hoped her friends were okay and that her curiosity on love would be figured out by chance if she ever lays eyes on Enzo someday in the future. She stays in that position her face glaring into the sky while her arms stray beside her.
