Remeber - Original



 The truth is I do remember, I remember everything...From her thin, pale lips, to her beautiful green eyes. I remember her pretty smile, her long, brown hair, falling down her back. Everyone thinks I don't, but I do. I wish I didn't, but I do.



She was my best friend, my love, the one I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. I loved her, I still do. I wanted to tell her how I felt, I had it all planned out. But, the day we were supposed to meet, the day I was supposed to tell her, she vanished. No one knows how or why. She just did. She disappeared, leaving nothing. Nothing but a small pendant, it was her favorite, she always used it. I always keep it close to me now. It gives me a small hope. If I have it, she has to come back to claim it. She never told me what was so special about that pendant. She just told me it was very important and that it meant a lot to her. I never dared to ask anything else, afraid she would get mad.



I shake my head, I shouldn't be dwelling in the past. I should move on. I should accept the fact that she's not going to come back, like everyone thinks I have. It all ended five years ago. She's been gone for five years. She is not coming back.



Tears stream down my face. I grab the pendant and, like many times before, try to smash it. Break it into little pieces and throw it away. But, like every time I've tried before, I can't. Just when I'm about to do it I see her face, like always. And then my resolve wavers and I can't do it. I can't. I just hold it tightly in my hands and cry. I miss her so much. I want to see her soon...



The doorbell rings, I stand up and wipe my face with my sleeve, no one can see me like this.



I go downstairs and open the door. Outside stands a police officer, I ask what's going on, he tells me that there has been an accident. I gasp, he tells me to accompany him. We walk. When we stop, we're standing in front of what looks like car crash...But I can't recognize anyone. I tell so to the officer, he looks puzzled, then tells me one of the victims had called for me, I look around, but I still can't see anyone I know. The officer signals me to follow him, which I do, not knowing what else to do. He takes me away from the forming crowd. He says the one that called for me was barely hurt, and that this person is where he is taking me. He stops, I stop. He tells me to walk forward a little more and leaves, saying he has things to do. I walk, looking for anyone I can recognize, but there's no one.



I turn around when I hear someone calling me. There, just a few meters away from me, stands a small boy with bandages wrapped around his thin arms. He doesn't look older than 13 has short, messy blond hair and big, blood red eyes. He's looking directly at me, a small smile on his pale lips. I look at him, he's not someone I know. He shakes his head as if saying "no" to answer my doubts and then walks over to me. All the while I stare, unmoving, as if in some sort of trance. He stops right in front of me and asks in a childlike yet incredibly cold voice "Where is the pendant?" At those words, I jump, puzzled. Did he mean that pendant? The boy nods his head, still smiling. "Tell me, where is the pendant?" I stand again, shocked, unmoving. How does he know about it? How does he know I have it? I shake my head, trying to deny knowing anything about it, but with my expression giving me away. He chuckles and says "You're a bad, bad liar" His smile then disappears and he looks straight at my eyes, coldly. He speaks again "Now...Give it to me" I shake my head. "No, there's no way I'm giving it to you" That's the only thing I have left of her, there was no way I was going to give it to anyone. Especially not a random creepy kid I had just met. He laughs and then talks again "Well then, you can keep it, but keep in mind you would be better off without it" I look at him, puzzled.  He just smiles, turns around and walks away.

First part of a little series I'm working on, hope it was to your liking.
This was written a long time ago, so I'm pretty sure it's not very good, it might have various silly mistakes.
Well, hope it was to your liking.
