*****GRED'S P.O.V.*****
The box was lighter than always, everytime it used to be so heavy that at times I used to think that did she bought a oven for me or not. But these, it was not only light but the tiniest gift box I ever received from her in my entire life! I was thinking that maybe she is so angry with me that she didn't wanted to gift me anything. I opened it still hoping for something that would amaze me than all the times before. It was a bundle of written papers witten by Lily. I arranged everyone of them and started reading. As I started reading, I realized that my eyes were becoming blurry and I was actually crying. But why was I crying? Maybe because of all the chilhood photos of ours were collaged into a single frame that reminded me about all the happy times I had with her which will be turned into just a memory by the day after tomorrow. Her words were like angelic effects all over the feelings. She narrated all her memories of us from back then till now. But she ended it by saying the words that I just knew I will be doing to her soon, the words that that once I only named it to be a nightmare. She said that
"P.s.- Even if the world ends , please never ever leave and honestly today was the worst day of my life cause I had to stay away from you the whole damn day!! And promise me to take me to the pizza shop this Sunday. Ok I take that as a promise, bye. XOXO. I love you lots."
Holding back my tears , I took all the photos and letters and packed it well to dug it into the piles of luggages I had in my room. Then I thanked God that we didn't packed the living room stuffs or else Daniel would have known that we are leaving and at last Lily will get to know about it. Thank God! Then I saw that the other packet Daniel brought with the gift. It was the diary from the school library with a sticky note on top of it, reading:
Deal with it! Don't you dare to get this thing back to me until you solve the mystery.BEWARE!
I also put that into my travel bag to read it while on plane. I slept well because I get better sleep when I am sad. But now I need to rush to pick Lily she said that day, I remember. I raced there in the same clothes I was wearing on bed to pick Lily and reach on time. And fortunately I did. I saw Lily sitting at the corner seat of the stadium and eating all the foods that I bought for her a couple of minutes ago. Only 5 minutes were left after changing into jerseys and having a little team talk with the coach. I sneaked back at the stadium to have a glimpse of Lily but didn't know that I would end up laughing watching her talking to all her food. And finally it was time, we reached the ground and it actually started. When I first saw the ball coming towards me I was getting nervous but I also saw that we can gain a score if I hit it straight. So after a couple seconds, I looked up at Lily and she give a go-you-can-do-it look and then I hit the ball all the way into the goal post leading us to gain score. Then gradually gained score which looked way higher than the opponent and thus WE WON!! We were really happy. These meant a lot to all the other people and the whole school to reach the level , we are now. But no doubt that Lily was way too happy and proud for me than myself.
I still didn't tell to all the other friends or say to anyone that tomorrow I'll be leaving except the coach. I just told him the day after I got to know about it. I hugged all of them even Lily , they thought I was hugging them because of the victory but who knew that this guy who was hugging them now will be gone by tomorrow to another place where there won't be any one of them. I thanked the teachers and principals for tolerating me and even they didn't understood . I thought to take Lily out to pizza shop today but she had to go to a family party so she left with Daniel.I was alone in the whole stadium and then I thought to take photos of this place in order to remember all of my memories with them when I'll be far away.
After a while, I logged in to all of my social media accounts I normally log in to and where I am connected to Lily. Then I deleted all those. Because I knew these is going to be really hard for her but she needs to deal with it. I suddenly texted her : I am sorry.
Before I could delete it she called me and I was freezed. I wasnt able to think about anything then at last I picked up her phone and tried to be normal. She asked her bundles of questions of why did I messaged sorry? But no excuse or reason could calm her down as if she wants to know that I will be leaving at last I got her convinced when I blackmailed her that today's my victory and not to ruin it. Then suddenly she asked why can't she tag me in her photo and I said that sometimes it happens for a while but eventually it will get better.I kept talking with her until I realized I just dropped my phone and I was at my room eating snacks that mom kept to take there. And then we both ended up laughing as we both realized that it have been 5 hours we were talking and we didn't realize. Though she was still at the wedding. We talked for the whole time of starting to get ready to almost to the end of the wedding then I asked her that can I come to that place and pick her up and go somewhere just to glance the sky full of stars tonight?
She replied with the most beautiful voice that can make anyone fall asleep at once "Okay , but only if you can convince mom!"
I said as it was the most easiest task in the whole universe " Oh I can handle her and so now do you want to go out on a starry drive?" I was feeling as if I was proposing her for marriage but it felt a little weird somewhere.
She murmured "I do!"
Why did it felt so different when she said that?
