Our Promise

Clara

Recap:

"Who is she? Clara Jones I mean."

"I was supposed to protect her. I was supposed to not let her go on her flight today but I failed miserably as you can probably already tell. Clara is my everything. I would do anything just to be around her and hear her laugh at my not so funny but she finds it funny kind of jokes. She's the type of person that always makes me feel good inside and everyday that I see her, she never fails to amaze me. She makes me want to be a better person and all I want to be is her guardian angel so that I could protect her forever and always." A tear escaped my eye as I thought of her all over again. I took a glance at the lady that was sitting beside me and she strangely also had tears in her eyes but never let one fall.

"Why are you upset?" I put a hand on her shoulder to comfort her but instead she brushed it off and stood up from her seat.

"Some day I want to have a love like that." The lady started to walk away from me and into the crowd as I thought about what she said.

Some day I want to have a love like that. Well strange lady, it doesn't matter now because she already went on her flight and now she is gone.

The best thing that ever happened to me is gone and it is all my fault.

Clara POV

My whole body felt like it was going to cave in. My crying turned into painful sobs and my body was shaking harder than an earthquake. This moment is more painful then when I found out that Dominic was leaving me when I was six years old. It's like I am reliving the same pain that I had when his car drove away leaving me there in the middle of the road in tears.

I finally found happiness when I found out that Dominic was my new boss. All the laughs and the good times that I spent with him is over. Now I have to be in an hour of complete pain.

My flight was delayed due to the wether so my flight is now changed to 9:15. Right now it is 9:05 so I guess I should be headed towards the airaplane.

I just felt dissapointment but most of all I felt pain. Pain for the fact that Dominic will never remember who the girl was that he so desspeartley wanted to remember when he was younger. All the wonderful, spectacular moments that Dominic and I shared is now going to be thrown away because he doesn't remember.

My hand felt bare because of the ring that is not there anymore. That is another thing that he does not remember. The promise that he made me when I was younger is a waste because to him that is just another simple ring that means nothing to him but to me the ring symbolizes our promise.

Dominic did not show up at 8:00 when I was supposed to leave so that just tells me that he did not remember a single thing yesterday.

I did not only feel pain for Dominic but I also felt pain for my family. I did leave a note but I did not state where I was heading off to. In the note I just said how I wanted to explore the world and find love elsewhere. I knew that my family would be in tears once they wake up and find my room empty but hopefully they will understand why I am going. It hurts to know that your family is going to be hurting in just a couple of hours once they get up and I wish that I did not have to go away from everything but going away is going to make me forget. Forget about him. Well for a little while.

Flight to Fredricksburg, Texas is going to take off in five minutes.

I guess this is my cue to start heading to my flight.

I missed Texas. Fredricksburg is not that known of and it's sad because it's such a great town to live in. It's pretty small with the population being just over ten thousand people last time I checked but I liked small towns because everyone knew eachother. It was pretty hot especially during the Summer but I know the first place that I am going to look for is my secret spot that Dominic and I spent time at when we were younger.
