The Mic and The Act (A Short Story)

The Future of Us

What was love supposed to be?

Is it how a person makes you feel?

Is it supposed to be you two happy together?

Is it about spending time with each other?

Is it about comforting each other?

Is it about knowing each one's secret?

Is it about trusting each other?

They were all at once true

and somehow there is no exact procedure or instruction for the perfect love of a person,

I learned that kiddo between the troubles with Matilda.

She makes me feel happy, complete and secure.

She is the rock that holding me on my dreams and passion,

she is my world too as she dreams of one day becoming a famous actress.

I'd support her no matter what, you would do that to kiddo for the person that you love.

My complete mistake?

I'm going to spill it to you now, I loved her with all my heart that I became blinded and only looked forward into the future; the future consisting of me starting a family with Matilda and her supporting me with my singing as she takes care of our children.

I forgot about her dreams and plans too.

After that fight with Matilda at the bar we manage to patch up and forgive each other.

Still a wound cannot heal if you keep on touching it and scratching it off, only time would tell between us if it is about to burst out again.

We enjoyed each other's company every day and each date is memorable for the two of us, my fondest memories of her is the one where we spent the day at the beach.

I picked her up early morning at her home, I spent almost the entire night at her place preparing our food and just enjoying the company with her as I have to go home and pick up some of my stuff.

As I parked the car in front of her house waiting for her to go out I couldn't help but notice a shoe outside her door, well it looks like one she would wear when she cross dress as a male for some of her acting roles.

I honked my horns after a few minutes my beautiful darling went outside and damn she was wearing a colorful floral dress and I bet she looks stunning in her swimsuit underneath that dress.

I still remember how perfect she looked that day with the roof of my car folded just the two of us with music playing and the wind running through our hair, I wish I could kiss her but I would have crashed the car if I did that. We were singing along to the music and she was so happy and carefree like as if there is not tomorrow for us.

The whole day I can remember not wanting to let go of her hands as if was going to lose her. We talked how well our careers were going, how we are close to reaching our dreams as she told me she is having an audition for one of the biggest movie to be filmed.

My heart is sincerely happy on Matilda getting near the role for a hit movie. Spending the day at the beach walking along the hot sands and clear blue water will always be my favorite thing to do at the beach.

Being with Matilda at the beach is one of the bonuses on how the universe is with me.

I'll never forget kissing her as the sun sets, it's a magical moment in where I felt that I want to spend the rest of my life with her.
