The cold wind... The silent night...
Hunts me again with my past.
My life was way back then perfect.
A perfect family...
Perfect friends...
But in a blink of an eye, everything was gone. Everything that I valued the most was gone.
They were all gone.
Yes, you've read that right.
THEY.
My family died. My mom. My dad. And my only brother.
They were everything to me.
The only memory I have from my family was the cupcake book.
A special book that only our family owns that were passed from generation to generation.
But how will I keep this if the ones whom I've shared these cupcakes were gone?
× Flashback ×
"We're going on a trip in our favorite rocket ship~"
"What time is it, Mom?"
"It's 9:30 pm, sweetheart."
"Sis, *yawns*, I'm so sleepy. Will you sing for me? Will you, please?"
"I'm tired, Grae."
"Chloe, just do it. We would love to hear you sing, you know?"
"Ugh. Okay, Dad."
I started playing the guitar.
Loving can hurt
Loving can hurt sometimes
But it's the only thing that I know
And when it gets hard
You know it can get hard sometimes
It is the only thing that makes us feel alive
We keep this love in a photograph
We made these memories for ourselves
As I'm singing, I'm watching them, how happy they are. Their precious smile, brightens my world so much.
Where our eyes are never closing
Hearts are never broken
Time's forever frozen still
× End of Flashback ×
I hope that time will be forever frozen still just like the song has mentioned.
That song...
Since that incident, I despised it too much. It lets me remember them and how they were gone in a blink of an eye.
My dad, my savior left me.
My mom, the light of my life left me.
My only younger brother, my little prince also left me.
Yes, indeed, too much love hurts.
But love was the only thing that mend us together.
Will love also mend me? To who I really am?
Everything was gone. Everything has changed.
And so do I...
I have changed...
You won't ever be alone...
Wait for me to come home...
