Natalie's POV
Memories I always want to forget, they are always the once that I remember. Oh the irony.
My eyes are still closed as my emotions run freely in my mind, flowing in my bloodstream and piercing through my heart. I reminisce everything. Everthing.
Flashback
3 years. 3 happy years with Chase. I've never been so happy like this.
I was 15 and he was 18. He already graduated highschool with flying colors. I've never been so proud of him.
It was summer, 4th of August. When he dropped the bomb that I've been dreading.
"Nat, I am leaving for college." He stared at me with sad eyes.
"That's great!" Sensing his glassy sad eyes, I questioned " Why the sad face?"
"It's in Boston." Oh.
Not wanting to break down, I enthusiastically said "Oh! When are you leaving?"
"I'll be leaving tomorrow, Nat." My eyes started to tear up. He's leaving tomorrow. He didn't even let me prepare.
"I'll be leaving with Jerry. I am so sorry, I didn't tell you earlier. I just don't want you to worry about me leaving. I am sorry." He pulled me in his arms and I relaxed in his touch.
"It's okay. I just wished you told me earlier so I can prepare myself. "
I let go of his arms and we spent the day together as if it is our last day together.

My eyes are still closed as my mind is filled with happy memories of us together that day. We watched movies, skate together, ate a gallon of cookies and cream ice cream and many more.
He also promised that when he come back, we'll do all the things in my bucket list.
I just wished that August 4 of that year didn't end. I wished with all my might and desire that that day didn't end. That 5th of August of that year didn't came. So I won't be stucked in this shit hole.
I opened my eyes but I am still here. I am still miserable. Cuts and bruises still linger in my skin. Physical pain is still present. But the pain from my broken rib, leg and shoulder can't be compared from the pain that I am feeling in my heart.
And soon, dam of tears fall from my eyes.
