A/N:Here I am, once again, feeling lost but now and then....

Happiness,joy,overwhelmingly strong gushes of adrenaline...
She stared into his soft brown eyes as he kneeled in front of her.All her life's dreams, her hopes of achieving a reputation, of obtaining a gem, so as to make all her haters jealous.
Every single one of her dreams flashed in front of her eyes as she fought to blink back her tears.

**FLASHBACK**
"But Mom, I'm still hungry"she moaned as her mother collected the dinner dishes from in front of her and her dad.Her sick dad...
Her mom gave her a pitiful look,"Darling, there's all there is,"her mother seemed embarassed.

She got up from her seat and headed for the door of their one-bedroom apartment.Life could be so cruel sometimes her still empty stomach grumbled sorrowfully.
She passed the fronts of many designer boutiques, where newly engaged couples were shopping.As she stood in front of the window of one exceptionally grand (and expensive) shop, she saw a girl coming out of the shop arm-in-arm with a handsome guy.

She stared after them for a while.The boy had seemed rich.
In that moment she vowed to improve her own life, even if she had to take the assistance of a male to jump onto that path, to exercise that way of life.
**END OF FLASHBACK**

She blinked,no,he was still there.
Warm waves of satisfaction crashed over her as she realized that he would be there, always be there...
But always is a big word

"Of course I'll marry you."she bended down to his level as she grasped his hand.They both rose, as he drew a black velvet case from the inside of his coat.
She gasped as she stared at the ring sitting there, all her efforts, all her dreams coming true at last.
God, don't take this from me


They walked out of the park hand in hand.
Memories of the past 2 months clouded her mind,She smiled brightly at one exceptionally bright and happy memory.Sub-consciously she squeezed his hand.
He looked a her, his eyes full of love.
They were oblivious to their surroundings.
Too oblivious.

His smile was the last thing she saw before every bone in her body was crushed under a triple-decker bus, that had rushed towards them, had honked it's horn, but they had been ignorant.

Maybe,he died with her.Maybe, they were reunited in Heaven...
Maybe...
