Prologue

15 of April, 2009

I stood helpless, as I read the note she left for me. I couldn’t believe I wouldn’t be able to see her smile, her eyes meeting mine... all those irreplaceable moments, and they all went away in a single second. I started crying and I sat in my bed. I wanted to seek solace, an arm to hold on to for the time being. But I could but only lay in my bed staring at the ceiling, wondering why this had to happen to me. The only things that ran through my head are the many things that I wanted to do with her that I can’t now. She left, and there was nothing I could do about it…

My phone rang and I grabbed it in a hurry, it was Richard so I answered. -… Hello?- I said, expecting a reply from my best friend. –I read your text… man… I’m so sorry.- I cleaned my tears from my eyes while trying to stop crying. I only offered silence, no reply came from my lips. –Hey… we could get you a ticket to come to America with me for some time… you don’t have to answer now, but I don’t think being alone is what you need right now.- -Alright… it’s pretty late here, I’m gonna try to go to bed.- Richard didn’t seem too convinced, but he understood nevertheless. –Try to sleep and think about what I said… it pains me seeing you like this.-

I put the blanket on me and I closed my eyes. Who knows, maybe tomorrow could be a better day.
