Warm. Warm is a one word that I can described about myself. I was seven years old girl playing around with my beloved sister, Aurora.

We were in the meadow, laughing, running and playing together. I chased my sister along with laughter and screaming of happiness with bare feet touching the soft grass.

"Catch me if you can!" She cried out loud and giggling with happiness.

"I'm going to catch you Peaches."

I chased her and quickly catch her small petite body into my arms. We were both laughing happily. We had done so many things together in the meadow.

We made a wreath of flowers together and sometimes we will play by the pond to watch a little fish swimming in there. And when its time for lunch, we will headed back to our parent and eat together on a summer day.

One day when me and Aurora, exploring the meadow together, our parent is watching us from their porch house while having some tea together. I collected some wild flowers and put it in my tiny basket until Aurora call me.

"Lulu come over here!"

She called me and I went I came closer to her, she threw a mud on her hands to me and laugh harder. I was startled but then I laugh with her.

I take the mud with full of my both hands and throw it to her. We were chasing each other and play mud war to each other until suddenly the earth on my bare feet started to shattered.

The earth started to shattered like an earthquake and I started to feel panicked. I run to the house but before I could reach it, the earth split further away for me to reach to the house.

Once the earth split, I can see the depth of the earth very dark and empty like a black hole in between the cracked earth. I look at the house and saw my parent. They are worried, terrified and panicked at the same time.

Too many emotions mix together on their face. My father tried to reach me but then the house sink and destroyed by the earthquake. The earth swallowed the house along with my parent and I only can hear screaming.

I try to scream their names and cried but I found myself that I can't barely hear my voice until I hear my sister's screaming.

She was so terrified and try to hold herself from sinking into the depth of the earth. I quickly try to reach her small hand and call her name.

"Aurora hold my hand!" I screamed panicked and terrified at the same time.

"LULU!!!"

She started to cry harder very hard and it shattered my heart.

"AURORA!!!"

Before I could reach her, I was falling down, down and down into the depth of oblivion. Aurora's worried face was becoming more small and small until I lost her crying face, calling my name.

I was falling and darkness surrounded me until I reach the surface. It was hard and I can feel the pain in my body once I was falling. The earth that I was lying on a hard, dark, glasslike volcanic rock with a pattern of flowing like lava, bright red light like a hell. It must be the obsidian where the lava had been formed by the rapid solidification of lava without crystallization.

I can still feel the heat underneath it and there's nothing but darkness only. Everything went quiet like my ears had stop functioning. Nobody is here, not even a single soul not even my parent or my sister.

I was terrified, confuse and nervous at the same time. So many emotions mixing together and it made me feel crazy. But I try to call them, anyone that I know, somebody but no one returned my call only an echo.

When I call my sister's name, I only hear an echo of my voice, returning my calling and that's all. Then I hug my knees and sobbing terribly. They were all dead and I was all alone.

Loneliness.

It is a dark place. It's like sitting in an empty place by yourself and feeling like this is eternity. It's like walking on a path without any directions, without any idea when it will end.

Loneliness is a word that can be described about me now. I was alone and nobody will ever come back to me ever. I was all by myself now. No parent and no my sister.

They all dead right in front of me. What have I done to deserved this life? What should I do? Why dont just take me too? Please just let me die because I want to be with my family back. I want them back. I feel like dying from the inside and Im hardly breathing properly.

While I was still sobbing, I saw a light far from me. My vision is so blurred because of my tears. I wipe off my tears on my eyes, try to look at the light clearly. At first the light was just small but the more I look at it, the bigger the light had become. It became big and brighter until I had to cover my eyes from it.

As soon as the light right in front of me, I try to take a peek of what is the mystery light came from. What is it? Where did it come from? Is it an angel? Am I will meet my family back?

But when I had my vision clear, I saw a girl. She looks exactly the same like me but older and she had white silvery hair while I had a darkest midnight hair. She had the light aura around her while I had the dark aura around me. We were complete different but were physically had the same face like a twin.

She lends her hand to me and I look her pure face. She gave me a warm smile to me. I reach her hand and when my small seven years old hand touch hers, I found myself that I was a grown woman, same age as her. She held my hand tightly, protectively while I was looking at myself but then I look at her.

"I have you. You have me. We're in this together and would never be alone."

Her voice was so soft,so watm and so loving and I just follow her to whatever she wanted me to go with her.

Together.
