I remembered you asked me if i knew what would be your last wish if you had to leave the world early.

"My last wish was to be in love." was the answer to your own question.

Startled by your 'was' i asked, "Why not now?"

"You made me feel loved. I won't gonna die now. I found my oxygen. I found you."

A soft peck on my forehead, eyes closed in bliss, lips lingering there for a brief moment then each eyes, nose and cheek, you tenderly kissed.

If it was a dream; if love was a dream, i never wanted to wake up.

To go back to the chaotic world, where it was all but a game of illusion.

I really didn't.

You pointed to the fascinating deep sky, the alluring moon radiating its silver dye.

The gumusservi looked oh so enchanting!

I wondered how does it feel to touch high.

"The moon today is looking so beautiful," I whispered, never expecting for your ears to hear.

"Yes. But you don't look like the moon one bit." my eyes snapped up to see you smirking down at me.

Huffing angrily i hit your chest playfully, as your head fell backward in constant howling.

I turned to leave just for you to catch my wrist gently, stopping me as i struggled to break free. Only to find you lean towards my ear, hitching my breath in the process.

"Do you really think i'll let the dozens of stars gawking at my moon?"

The red hue confirmed how special i felt back then. Not only your possessiveness but the caring protectiveness enveloped me.

I mattered to someone.
