Unspoken Truth

It's Always You.

Becky's point of view.

It's almost sunset. It's a marvelous view to see the sun's light disappear, yet you know it will be replaced by the serene light of the moon.

Becky can't help but go back in time, reminiscing about the good old days.

(Flashback)
"There you are. I know I will find you here. What are you thinking?" Becky asked. She made herself comfortable, lying in the same manner as the person on her right.

"Nothing; I just love staying here". The person exclaimed

Becky snickered and put her hands behind her head. "Yes, I also love it here. I believe normal people really love climbing their rooftop, laying a blanket, and looking straight up to the moon for every fu****". Becky can't continue her words because they were mumbled by a hand. And being a naughty Becky, she just did what she was supposed to do. Lick the other person's hand.

Becky can't help but chuckle. It still brings a smile to her face. "I wish I could turn back time. Wow, you look beautiful tonight, Moon Goddess." Becky raised both of her hands to the moon and gestured a heart sign. "Can you bring me back to the time when I wasn't alone? Becky sighs and drops her head. It will be a long night for her.

Becky was about to call it a night when someone knocks on her door. She knows it's either her brother or Auntie Mhee. "Beck are you still awake?" Richie called. Becky open her door. "Hi Bro, do you need something? It's not about your tennis racket,  right. I won the bet. You can't take it back”. Becky back away with a No sign gesture and sat on her bed.

Richie laughs. "Silly you, it's not about that. Can you let me in for a while, it's hard standing up here while you're all comfy sitting on your bed".

"Of course,  come in. Make yourself comfortable in the floor. I mean in the chair". Becky tease.

"You and your love of teasing makes me wonder if your head were bumped when you were a baby”. Richie fires back. "Anyway, in serious tone,  I just want to ask if you'll be okay tomorrow.".

Becky shrug her shoulder. "Why wouldn't I be okay. I am actually excited. I can't wait for tomorrow".

"Yeah right. So why do you seems you just seen a ghost. Your whiter than a white raddish". Richie laughs and clutching his stomach.

"Cut me some slack,  will you. It's been a long time since..." Becky cut herself out and push Richie out of her room. "I need to sleep early".

"Okay,  okay, I'll go now". Richie raise his hands. He's few steps away from Becky's door when he turn around and look straight to her sister. "If you need anything, you know you can rely on me. Don't you ever forget that".

Becky nods her head and smile. "I know and I expect no less. We only have each other in this family, well in addition to Auntie Mhee. Don't worry Richie. I'll be fine. I promise. Thank you and good night. I don't want to see your ugly crying face". Becky walk to his brother and hug him. Richie hugged back and pats Becky's shoulder before he said good night back.

"Finally, I can rest now. It will be a long day tomorrow." Becky laid down with her arms bent above her head like she was modeling for Vogue magazine.

"Becky, are you okay? Do you want to talk". Becky's mom called. She touched Becky's hair and caressed it. "I miss your sparkling happy eyes. It's been ages since I saw them. Will you be okay?"

Becky can't believe what she's seeing. Her mouth was agape, and she was too shocked to utter a sound. Finally, a whimper broke through. "Mommy, I missed you so much. Where are we? Is it the place where I lost my care bear? Is it the place where I first saw...?" Becky quickly looked around, trying to find that someone who found her care bear and stole her heart at the same time. How ironic does that sound?

Becky's mom touched her shoulder. "Becky, my lovely daughter, you don't have to suffer anymore. You have to let go. You have to start anew to be happy". They hugged each other.

No matter what the circumstance, a mother's hug can bring you peace. A peace that Becky barely grasps now. She feels like a kid again. She loves to give love, but receiving love will be her favorite thing.

"It's so funny; I just had a bear hug from Richie, and now it's you. I wish my father was here. Where is he, by the way?"

Her mom laughs. "He's out there teaching Richie how to do business properly".

Becky suddenly awoke when she heard the alarm sound. "That's a weird dream, that's for sure." Becky stretched her body, emitting a cracking sound. She went to her bathroom, then stopped in front of the mirror. "I saw you in my dream!"
