"Hey, here take this."

She handed me a necklace that shined under the moonlight as we stood on the terrace viewing the night sky.

I gave her a questioning look.

"Isn't that necklace very important to you?" I took it from her hands making sure it is handled with care.

She looked at the view again as I look at her side profile. It was mesmerizing.

She chuckled.

"Yeah, give it back to me when we see each other again. " she said still focused on the night sky.

It was silent for a second.

I held the necklace where the moonlight shined right on it. A beautiful crystal with the color of an ocean, never mind, more eye catching the ocean itself.

I looked at it then at her.

I thought about it.

I paused for a second.

"But don't we see each other everyday at school and we are literally 24\7 next to each other ?"

I looked at her questioned looking for answers.

She started laughing in an elegant making me feel butterflies.

"I mean like if something random happens or I don't know just after a few months." She looked at me and smiled. It was said in a rather jokeful tone, so i played along.

I nodded.

"Sure." I laughed and she started laughing as well looking back at the view.

I looked at her laughing, what an angelic sight it was.

She looked like a dazzling fragment, she was a shining star.. 

...a star that shines brighter than anyone else.

My best friend she was, best friend since elementary school all the way to high school . She always felt way more special than only a best friend.

'Maybe one day I could tell you face to face , 

..isn't the moon beautiful? 

You shine so bright, it made my heart unable to handle how much love I have for you. Next time I will tell you, to tell you that,

...I love you.'

I gave a soft smile wondering the scene when I finally confess my love.

Oh how beautiful it will be.

It will truly be a once in a life time.

...

" Sorry, we couldn't save her. She overdosed on way too many pills."

Wait..

..what..?

.. what happened..

No...

... why?

... didn't you want me to return the necklace?


" .. what.. doctor it can't be true..! I- I just saw her yesterday.. I- no no... doctor plea-!"


... didn't you want me to return it to you face to face?

How am I supposed to do it now?


" since her family isn't here how about you sign the forms for her confirmation of death, she will be prepared for a burial."

I chuckled softly.


"..psst didn't his best friend just killed herself?"

" woah yeah. What a pity, she was really pretty and nice.

" quite popular as well. Wow I feel bad for him, at least I have a chance with him now! He is really hot!"

" oi! Hey! Be quiet he will hear you, but yes he is good looking.."



...You left me.




I held the neck lace in the palm of my hands, I suddenly have a flashback of her in my head, there she was smiling holding her hands out to me like when she was still here, maybe it's a sign.

I held a handful of pills.


" .. maybe I get to see how she felt in her last moments.."
