【We】
I've yelled,begged and cried a thousand times before, asking please stop and not to follow me around anymore. Yet still wherever i look and go the tormenting presence is always there. I kept on running and running wanting to be freed. But why is that as if every nook and cranny of my own thoughts is like an open book. I indeed admit we get along so well and was very close in the past, in fact too close that even our parents can't separate us. We were happy as long as we were together, always together just us two. We sleep, eat, play and even take a bath together, until finally a day came that had separated me. As for my memory on how it happened i can only testify it very vivid. Our parents were talking to me while i was crying, strangely that no one is beside me. Maybe what they told me was too unbearing, that my own memory have somewhat locked it up. Now that we've grown up, I've made so many friends that I feel our bond was on its edge. Til a point now were i was the one being confronted with a smile "You're fine now". Walking away slowly vanishing from my sight, I didn't even think its my time to follow. Even with it being so sudden I wasn't sad, in fact I felt glad that a great lift of burden was gone from my heart. I went straight home and saw some picture frames on the top of our table. Never did I really paid attention to those pictures but for some reasons i have the urge to look at them. It made me curious of how odd seeing all the pictures containing our parents and what supposed to be us didn't even contain me. It sure made me upset even though there were a lot of my photos hanging on our wall. I left the living room feeling disappointed and went straight to the wash room and wash my face. After drying my face, i saw myself in the mirror and tear drops begin to fall. I just now realized that we look alike, in fact so much alike that it was as if we we're identical twins. My locked up memory began to overflow, I remember everything now. I can't help but laugh at how pathetic i was remembering it just now. I slowly touched our reflected image on the mirror while we smile "Of course we look alike... I even forgot I was an only child... no wonder you know me too well... after all... we share the soul, body and mind"
