I disconnected from life after that, I guess many years passed... I lost track of time, I no longer knew if months or years had passed, I stopped talking to everyone I knew, including Eric, the times we exchanged words ,It was when he brought some food to my room, Eric really tried, but I didn't want to do it. Whenever I listen to him and look at him, his expression always reflected things that I didn't want to remember, my mind didn't want to know anything about it, I didn't want to see or talk to anyone.

At some point I forgot the reasons that kept me alive, the idea of ​​going with my family became stronger and stronger in my head. Before my mind gave up and I finished giving up, I saw a half-full bottle of liquor that Eric had left there a long time ago. I took it and drank it all at once, I needed... just a moment... I just needed to think clearly for a moment...

Why am I still alive? While I was trying to think, I walked over to my window, grabbed a slightly worn chair and looked at the sky through my window, I wanted to find the reason why I'm here...what's stopping me?

In the starry sky I saw what looked like a comet passing by, I didn't know if it was real, but at one point something crossed my mind when I saw it.

a memory... Ah... how could I have forgotten... if I saw this sky with you... Erika.


(Flashback)

A woman was about to reach a small hill when she slipped and screamed. When she was about to fall on her back, someone grabbed her to prevent her from falling.

Robert: You have to be careful love, the baby doesn't like it when you do strange maneuvers.

Erika: Our little one will understand what these involuntary movements are.

Saying this she sighed with relief that nothing bad had happened.

I took advantage of that moment, pulled her a little and carried her in my arms.

Erika: Hey!... Be careful Robert, we're on a hill and I'm too heavy...

Robert: i love you with your flaws.

Erika: idiot...(whisper)

Roberto: Did you say something?

Erika blushed and responded.

Erika: Nothing!

After carrying it while climbing the hill we finally made it to the top.

It was night and the sky looked very beautiful. I carefully placed her on the floor and then sat next to her.

Erika: Wow, it really is a very beautiful sky, look how romantic you are for bringing me here hahaha.

With some embarrassment I responded.

Robert: Don't underestimate my feelings.

After a while looking at the sky, Erika changed her expression a little and spoke to me.

Erika: There is something I have wanted to tell you for a long time.

I looked at her carefully.

Erika: I know it doesn't make sense to say this now. But I'm sorry for ruining your career as an athlete... I know...

Before she finished speaking I hugged her.

Robert: I've told you several times that it's not your fault, things just happened.

Erika: But if only I had eaten the pasta that day I...

Robert: Shh... don't worry, don't think about it anymore, I love you and our son.
