I love him. I want to be with him forever. But how come we’re destined to meet each other, to know each other and to love each other if we’re not destined to be together, forever.

I’m Elizabeth Monterial. I’m 83 years old who lives in 21st century. And 60 years ago, I loved a guy who lives in 19th century. A guy who born in a year 1864 and I meet him in the year of 1889, but how could be me, who lives in the present, met a guy in the past? If the girl like me is born in a year of 1997.

Now, I’m here in my room. Using my gadgets, I always use my facebook, instagram and even twitter specially if I don’t have any chances to go out in this house. Grrr. I can’t take it too long. I can’t go out with my friends. Grounded for a week is like a hell, I swear. How I going to convince myself to take this kind of life for a week? Grrr. I can’t take this.

In the middle of a silent moment here in my room, a text messages pop up in my phone. Text message came from my Gay best friend, Oliver aka Olivia. Tsk. He’s asking me out. As always, he just want to have a boy hunt series in some of the night clubs out there and that’s the only thing I don’t want about him. I don’t want him being a gay who’s always craving for handsome guys. But then I hope there’s no more than that because I swear I’m going to kick him.

“Where?” I replied to him.

“same place, girl”

“Okay wait me, pick me on the same place within an hour. “ yes, I’ve been grounded for a week starting this day but I want to go out in this quiet and boring house. And yes, my dad is going to be mad at me but I don’t care and no one can stop me. I just need to think how I’m going to go out in this house and I think that’s so easy for me. I consider myself as an expert on it.

I prepared myself. I change my clothes and fix my hair and put some make ups in my face. I actually don’t need any make ups because even without those I’ve been pretty in any angle and situation.

But then, enough with this drama, I really need to find a way before my dad caught me.

Now , here I am in front of my phone Texting Oliver just to pick me here in where I am right now. Gosh, I hate this. I don’t want to be caught by my father and I really hate when I’m waiting too long.

And there, after my waiting Oliver is already here. But gross, I need to go in the other side of the street. My Ghad, Oliver. You’re getting into my nerves. He wave at me before I started to walk among them but the stupidly inside me is awaken so I didn’t notice a car who is fast driven towards to me.

I almost hit by that car. And suddenly I fell down on the street because of that and my arms are covering my face. After a few minutes, I didn’t feel something hit me and suddenly, I feel someone who approached me but then I expected that Oliver is the one who will approach me or go towards to me.
