Can I Kill You? (COMPLETED)

I Wouldn't See It Again

10 days later

The sun spilled over the sky in an outburst, lighting up the sky in one go.

It was a pity, because both - looking up the sky and holding onto the earth, both reminded me of him.

He was both of them.

As my eyes flickered down, a soft pat around my shoulders didn't prove to be enough to calm down the storm of tears forming in my eyes.

I looked down at my mom's lovely face, overshadowed by the hidden clouds.

My fingers fidgeted around the buttons of my long, black coat, staring down at a bouquet of roses - even the scent reminding me of him.

I hated how everything reminded me of him.

The officers stood infront of his tombstone, saluting and sending their prayers.

Officer Rick, the duo Officers, others who were involved in the gunfight - you name it.

I never understood what forgiveness meant back then. I tried to find so many meanings. I thought I had already found it before.

Watt cleared his throat, his eyes snapping out of the daydream.

".... Whenever I see boss practising I stop to watch him. I don't know why. I guess there is just something about him that is so different from others--"

"Like a soldier."

I stood beside him, clutching my notepad. Watt's eyes fell on me.

"He doesn't look cocky or too full of himself. I know."

Watt spoke up, his eyes back on Donnor.

"I think you missed the point, Callie."

I looked at him, my eyebrows falling.

A ray of moonlight passed Watt's face, followed by darkness.

"He appears forgiving. I think that's the scariest thing to feel from a criminal."

I think I knew what Watt meant.

He was too good.

Too good for me.

Don sipped some of the soup, making a weird face because of it being hot. I laughed, making some of cashews fall on the floor. He rolled his eyes like a baby, his cheeks and neck reddening. I took a moment to just look at him, the way his ice blue eyes remained glued on the soup bowl with immense focus, the way he licks his lip and his jaw moves.

It was that same feeling washing all over again, the same feeling I had back home.

He is just too good.

He was so good that I lost him.

Tears formed my eyes. I wiped them away in an exhale.

His sister Ariel, a pretty woman with Auburn hair and round glasses next placed the lilies, her freckles shining through the sun.

"Brother..." She whispered softly, tears running down her soft, plum cheeks.

"I...I will miss you..."

His voice slit through the heavy silence as everyone stood with their heads down.

I was the only one left.

I approached him, kneeling down. My hands clutched the roses as i leaned in, pressing my forehead against his.

"Don..." My voice cracked low and weak, fighting off the universe.

My heart ached, but it was full.

I breathed, witnessing the sun's rays shine up his name, carved in capital letters.

The tears I had so tried so hard to resist, fell on him, twinkling with the sun as it fell off and nurtured the grass.

"I...I will always love you." I whispered in a soft aroma, silence basking in,

"You are with me here. forever. Always remember that."

I sobbed, my cries echoing in the air.

The flowers weren't moving. There was no wind. Everything stood still as the universe held in the moment, a life of someone who did not only save the world, but saved me and my family.

I wiped off my tears, placing the roses as it's petals soaked in the warmth of the sun.

The sun wasn't grinning, but it was bright today.

The brightest I had ever seen.

And I knew I wouldn't see it again.

...
