You,

It's been three days now since I first met him. Also, three days since I last visited the sea. It's been three days since I last had real peace of mind. It's been three days since I had someone by my side. After that day, I went back to reality that I am alone. No friends, no family. Just me.

Today is Sunday. To many, today is a family day when they go to mall, beach, and church to create memories. But here I am watching every car, person, dog, bird, and cat that passes by our house. Standing at my balcony, holding a glass of my favorite red wine while envying every creature that's wearing their annoying smile. They look so happy and in love. Looking at them, hurts me like crazy. I want to feel it too. I want to feel being loved. The real love. I want to be loved by someone who isn't loving me because it's their obligation to do so. I want to be loved with no other reason besides love.

Love,
Why can't you give me love like her?

Dad,
Why can't you give me love like mom?

At the middle of my musing, the serene sound of waves called me. So, I let myself be pulled by it and let my heart go where it truly belongs. But as I was locking the gate, someone came out the gate of the house beside ours. A tall young man with chinito eyes, fluffy cheeks and moon-like bright smile standing in front of me. He looks so composed and gorgeous like an angel sent by the heaven to heal wounded hearts and save dying souls.

"Off?" I said with small voice with a bit of a shocked tone. He too was shocked when he saw me.
"Do you live here?" he asked me using his soft voice and I nodded as reply.
"Now, I know where to find you. Where have you been? I was looking for you. I always go at your usual place to see you but I didn't see any shadow of you." he continuously said without stopping. I smiled at him to hide my annoyance towards him, then looked away from him as I completely ignored his existence. Afterwards, I finally locked the gate and placed the keys in my pocket when I heard his heavy sigh.

"Where are you going?" he said after releasing the air he just breathe in.

"To where my heart belongs" I said to him.

Love,
Gun
