pisces

✨ twenty one ✨

It was raining heavily and didn't even bother to take out and use my umbrella as I already got wet. Everyone who came for the funeral left. Except me of course. I stood in front of pisces's grave. I don't if it just me but the grave smells a lot like her.

It was 6 am when the doctors announced pisces's death. Some of the teenage girls and elderly woman cried. I didn't and so did Mary. She looked at me immediately.

"for all the years pisces had suffer, she finally reached peace. It finally gave me peace too. I'm happy she found happiness in you. Thank you leo"

She told me and I simply nodded. Then the doors open and there was pisces. They covered her body but not her face.

She looked like pisces but she didn't feel like it. She looked pale but if someone took a magnifying glass and look at her lips, one could tell that she died smiling.

I leaned and pecked her cold and pale lips. A part of me wished for her to kiss back but she didn't. They took her body away and Mary instantly hugged me.

"Leo, son it's time to go"

I looked up at my dad and nodded. I squated and kissed her grave stone. I could hear pisces laughing at me and teasing me for being so emotional. I simply smiled at the thought and walked towards my dad's car.

I sat on the roof, drinking a bottle of coke while listening to not about angels by birdy. The neighborhood was quite, as usual. It was 11pm. Everyone was probably sleeping.

I'm returning back to school tomorrow as I skipped 3 weeks of school. The punishment was detention and social services. Nothing I can't handle.

I looked up and stared at the stars. They were beautiful as usual. But two specific stars that stole my attention. They were right beside each other. One was big and it glow dimmer that the one beside it.

"And remember. I'm among the stars. Maybe I'll hang out with your mom and we can't rant about you"

I remember pisces saying that. I grinned.

Before meeting pisces, minus this twenty one days, I would probably be hanging out with Joe, a random homeless man eating mcdonalds pancakes as dinner. I would probably be a wreak.

But of course pisces changed that. She changed me. And I'm eternally grateful.

This twenty one days with pisces east was worth it and I'll remember it till the end of time.

"Thanks pi."

I whispered and lay down. I closed my eyes and for the first time in months, I genuinely smiled.
