Ollie's POV:
After I've been save from the corrupted building of the underground, I was searching for her or at least her body but I can't because she already buried deep down there. It's very hard to get her back and now she's gone already. Completely gone from this world.
I was frustrated and feeling so useless because I can't do anything to help her. This is all my fault that she's gone and I shouldn't have left her but I did. I left her like a coward and she all alone deep down there. It was a mistake to leave her like that. A very big mistake but yet I left her.
I was sobbing terribly, kneeling there in all of the collapsing building, Grieving of her death. She doesn't deserve to die like this. She doesn't need to be alone like this. I should just kill myself instead just to be with her.
A few of people came by, police and firefighter came and ask me 'What happen?', 'Are you okay?', 'Is there someone else in there?' but I was in utterly shock, unable to speak any words or their questions.
Then they take me to the hospital to treat me for I know that I must be look horrible. Bruises and cuts everywhere on my body and my cloth full with dust and dirt along with a torn cloth. They take me to the hospital or so they try because I refuse to leave her.
They force me but I fight back. Some of them say they will search for her but thought they assume she must be dead already because of how terrible the building collasped in there.
At the hospital, they already wrapped my cuts with bandage and gave me medicine, my parent came. Looking so worried and they hug me in a sudden. I hug them back but then I saw Max and Lily, Luna's parent came to us.
"Ollie? Happen to her? Where's my daughter?" Ask Max.
"Where's my baby Ollie. Is she's alright? Why isn't she here with you?" This time Lily's ask. My parent stand beside us to give space for some talk with them. I clear my throat but at the same time, I try so hard to hold my tears.
"Luna, she- "
I hold it for a second because I don't know how to tell them that their daughter was dead because of me.
"She's what Ollie!?" Max feeling unpatient and worried struck on his face while Lily was in tear try to hold from sobbing.
"She's gone." I whisper but clear enough for them to hear me.
"She's what?" Lily shrieked but then she feel on her knees and sobbing terribly. Max help her up and my mother help her to calm her down. I can't hold my tears anymore and just let it slide on my cheeks.
"I'm so sorry. I have tried. I try to save her but she sacrife herself to save me. I'm so sorry. This is all my fault."
Max came to me and put his hand on my shoulder. He sight heavily and look at me.
"It's not tour fault son. Whatever happen to you two, it's not your fault."
"But I left her. I let her die alone." I was sobbing. It's hard for a man to cry but to cry for someone you loved has gone forever in your life, it was something.
Max was there with me. We grieve and cry together for our lost one.
On the next day, we make a burial ceremony without her body because we can't find her body under that corrupted building, nobody found it. Max and Lily was very sad of their lost because she the only daughter that they have. My parent was here too and they were very sad and sorry for them because they already consider Luna as their daughter too.
As for me, I was standing in front of her frame picture. Looking at her beautiful grey hair and her beautiful blue greyish eyes. She so beautiful in her baby blue dress and so happy.
I love her laughter, her smile, her clumsiness and everything about her. No matter what happen in my life, I will always love her and no one else. She the only person in my heart. After the ceremony's end, I headed to the meadow where we usually play.
The meadow was still the same beautiful as ever with the wild flowers and the fireflies flying through the grass. The grass was blown by the windy cold breeze air at night and make it looked like a wave while the stars shine perfectly like a diamonds on the pitch black sky. I was lying on the grass while looking at the sky and remembering about her. I remember when we were younger.

*Flashback
"Ollie if I die, what would you do wihout me?"
"Why do you ask that kind of question?"
"I don't know. I'm just curious, I guess." She just shrugged but still waiting for my answer.
"I never imagine myself to live a life without you Lulu because you've been with me for all my life. You're my best friend Lulu. Without you, I might be lost."
She just smile of my answer and look at the night sky fill with stars. A calm breeze of wind flew on her face and her hair makes her look so calm and younger. There is no stress line on her face at all.
"Ollie if I die, can you live your life without me and be happy?"
I stay quiet for awhile, unable to answer her question but the look in her eyes say that she really hopefully to answer my question.
"I will but whatever happen to us, I don't want you to leave me Lulu. I don't want that."
"I'm still here with you. Always." We hold hands and look at the sky for awhile.
*End of flashback
That's one of my memory that I always remember of her because of that question. She said that it was going to be okay. She wants me to live my life to carry on without her but she promised me that after we're saved, we are going to live together, forever.
But that was all pointless and it had become an empty word now. My life won't be perfect without her and what if I can't live anymore?
But I remember her words clearly that she wanted me to live because of her. Even though she wasn't here for me but at least I live a life I want just for her. Do it for her. I don't know how but I will try my best. For her.
Beside she would be always among with those stars on the sky. Shine brightly on the midnight sky so that I would never be lost.
