Her heels clicked against the cold pavement.
Running...
Running...
Her heart ceased to beat for a moment.
No...
It was not time yet...
Her knees gave way. She was too weak.
But it was not time yet...
It shouldn’t be...
She rested her weight on the hand that touched the pavement for support. With her free hand, she clutched the gold heart-shaped pendant that clung to the thin chain around her neck.
Crystal tears emitted from the corners of her almond-shaped eyes. As if following an imperceptible course, it streamed with grace, down her oval face and on to the cement floor. Her lips trembled and gradually parted into a slim gap, slowly taking in the crisp air that filled the ambiance.
Her head tilted heavenward, feeling the intangible arms of the sun caress her pale countenance; inspiring fresh life into her weary bones and warming her icy skin.
She smiled in gratitude for the benediction she had received. As her eyes slowly opened, a sweet greeting of cherry blossoms descended upon her, letting itself perch on her shoulders and her lap. She looked around and took in everything that surrounded her.
The cherry blossom tress silently wept, filling the milieu with a soft tint of carnation. The sun hid behind the thick blossoms that adhered to the branches, daring itself to move into the open.
Regaining some of her strength, she progressively positioned herself upright and motioned herself toward her destination.
She needed to hurry...
There was not much time.
She broke into a run. Her hair wipped against her back as she hastened her pace. Somehow, she felt her passage of breathing enclosing. Her mind raced even more...she had to keep running.
A gravestone was materializing as she approached into the horizon. She was near.
A feeling of anticipation surged through her body. This was the only place she wanted to be at that moment...
Beside her beloved.
Her speed diminished as she approached her deceased lover.
Finally...
She knelt in front of the large stone and let her fingers glide through the engraved epitaph. Tears flowed down her cheeks once more. The corners of her lips curved upward. After many scarred years, they were now together...in the face of death.
A warm sensation caressed her back and onto her arms. The warmth materialized into a human form; a most beautiful celestial form.
It was him.
She closed her eyes as she felt herself float away from her lifeless body. Turning around, she met his deep viridian eyes. The eyes that had captivated her heart for so long a time. The eyes that had made her undergo a great sense of belonging.
It was time that hindered her eyes from seeing his viridian ones...
But they were no longer bound by time...
They were bound by oblivion...
Running...
Running...
Her heart ceased to beat for a moment.
No...
It was not time yet...
Her knees gave way. She was too weak.
