THE BLACK DIAMOND

MATE 2011

“How lucky she is.” i whispered at myself

Seeing them dancing, being happy with each other's arms. I am glad to see him like this, definitely. like how blissful they are but—

I blinked when something came on mind

It’s like there’s a knife, piercing into my heart. Watching them, of how much they love each other. the ...

I breathed and closed my eyes, trying not to let the tear’s from falling.

I could still felt the pain. “You’ll get through with this.” i assured myself, i...i hope. I hope so

AFTER A YEAR./pov: TAME

“I AM GOING TO FRANCE! After... all... these!” She swayed her hands “new chapter right? Starting a new in life, and journey.”

I nodded slowly, I didn’t expect. That fast? She’s leaving, right away.

“Uh... really” I lost words to say. “G—Great! when? when was your flight” i curiously asked

she raised her chin, smiling widely, it seems like she felt happiness so much. she looked down, and thinks about something. Then again, she looked up at me

“I think tomorrow? yah! i’ll book a flight for tomorrow”

I’m surprised, but I didn’t show that much from my expression. It’s tomorrow... Why so soon? why—i mean I shook my head slowly

“Tomorrow? Are you sure”

“Yeah... I’m sure. I’m here honestly because, wanting to say good bye, personally. I don’t wanna say through phone.”

she keeps smiling, but why is that? I could feel she’s not totally happy, there’s something.

“To say, Be careful, take care of yourself, don’t get too tired through work hmm?”

I gave her a sad smile, I don’t understand what i feel. I felt like, i will gonna lose something.

“What kind of that words... you’re still coming back, aren’t you? This is not the last time we would see each other. If it’s just good bye don’t say it, there’s no need, you know I don’t want goodbye’s.”

I fix my ring, she gave this to me last christmas as her friendship gift, i looked at my ring then next to her, and our eyes met.

We were silent at one snap. there’s a... speechless moment, atmosphere. Just looking through each other’s eyes, and our eye’s are saying something. Seems like we were talking

She smiled back at me, there’s sadness. I could see in her eyes, that she wanted to say something. When we stopped staring each other, she came closer towards me and hugged me.

“I want you to be the happiest person in the world. I know Janin will always take care of you.” she pulled away herself then looked into my eyes, i nodded, saying yes. “Take care Tame.”

“Nope. You must. I’m not there to protect you, being your body guard” I chuckled slightly. she laughed for a second

She tapped my shoulder, then she turned her way to the door, leaving, and i’ll followed to led her at the gate. but instead

I stared at her from behind for a moment

“ENES!” I called

She immediately turned her gaze at me, i walked towards her. I was a few inches away from her, I noticed the tears forming at the corner of her eyes, she wiped it quickly but i wiped it on the other side, using my fingers
