Just Like Old Days (Graylu Story)

She Died;They Lied

Listen to any sad songs while reading this... thanks... 

*Lucy Povs*

Hearing those words coming from his mouth quickly penetrated my heart. It hurts when the person you love, does not remember anything. I started to think it's my entire fault, why did I push him away in my life back then? Why did I do that?

Dr. Eucliffe suddenly comes and said, "Lucy, may you please go out in his room first, he might panicked or something, I'll just check something." I looked down while stepping outside of Gray's room. I don't want him to ask me why am I tearing up in this type of unreasolvable situation, I hope I can handle this. I just hope...so...

I stared at the happy couple sitting on the vintage-style bench at the park. I got jealous, but sad at the same time. They reminds me of myself and Gray when we were young lovers back then.

"Hey!" A voice behind me suddenly came. I turn my back and sighed, "Oh, it's you, Erza, what are you doing here?" asked I. She raised her left eyebrow and bites her lip while pinching my cheeks, "Are you alright?!" she asked loudly.

I nodded my head as the answer to her question. "Oh, really? Then why are you staring at that jelly couple over there?" she teased. "No, I'm not." I denied. She finally stopped pinching my cheeks when she saw two birds standing in front of us.

It looks like they're lovers in my eyes. "What are you thinking?" Erza asked all of the sudden. I just laughed and continued pondering. The bright sky started to turn gloomy; I looked up to wonder why.

"I think it's going to rain, let's go." Erza said as she pulled my arms. I told her no, but she convinced me to go. I want to think so deep about the things that's happening in this world right now, but I guess the sky doesn't want me to think too much. A month later, I always visit Gray even though I am still studying. He became my inspiration to work hard even though I know it will take years or decades for him to remember our beautiful memories including me. There was one time when he asked tons of questions about me, he even questioned if I have a boyfriend. I can't stay by his side for just a day because Dr. Eucliffe told me his mind is still sensitive. I can only visit and talk to him for three hours, if I passed the limit, he might panicked or something.

"Hey, I bought you a red apple," said I, handing it on his hands. He smiled, but all of the sudden looked down. "What's wrong?" asked I, his voice was kind of shaky while he was answering my question.

"I-I-I really don't remember you, I-I-I am so sorry..." he said. "You don't have to," said I. The way he said it with his voice wants me to burst into tears which I don't want to happen. Lucy, you need to be strong for him. Do this for him.

I abruptly changed the topic because I don't want him to stress himself just to remember me. "Gray, I got the highest score in the quiz this morning!" he finally looked up and faced to me when I said that.

I miss you... I hope I can say that to you... 

*Third Povs*

Lucy endured the pain she felt every time she visits him. She does not want to give up on him because she loves Gray so much more than her own life. When Gray finally remembered everything after a two years, Lucy died in a train accident when Erza was about to call her.

Since Erza and the others cared for him, they hide Lucy's death for his own good condition. It might sound selfish and stupid, but he needs it to continue for his future. Gray graduated with degree in Magnolia University because of Lucy. He dedicated everything for Lucy because Erza told him after he finished college, Lucy will come back to him. Gray's family knows the bad incident that happened to Lucy; they agreed to hide it for Gray's condition.

- Graduation-

Everyone claps when the officers from the district called my name. Before going up to the stage, I looked where my family and friends seated to see if Lucy's there. Too bad, I didn't see her, I guess she's just surprising me. I wonder what she doing right now.

I shaked hands with the officers and bowed in front of everyone. When I was about to give a speech, a butterfly suddenly comes on my hand. Of course I didn't do anything; I watched flipping its own wings with a smile on my face.

"Hey, Gray, do your speech..." one of the officers muttered. I blinked my eyes for a couple of times and took a deep breath, "Before anything else, I would like to thank my parents and true friends for everything they did to make me happy, four years without the person I loved is too difficult, but I know it's all worth it because I might see her after the graduation....."

Everyone claps and looks like some of them were tearing up, my speech isn't that sad, what's wrong. "GRAY!!" someone exclaimed. A familiar voice, it sounds like Lucy, I quickly turned around to see if it's her.

"Oh, Juvia..." muttered I. I faked smile and hugged her, "I wished you'll understand what will happen after this." She said.

I'm crying folks...It's so sad...wait for the next part...
