We met each other one summer day.

From within a faceless crowd

someone was smiling back.

that's all I could remember.

~~~

Why waste our time in search of something

Always waiting...

Always wanting...

~~~

Lizzy...

Hm...?

How did we meet?

Oh, c'mon Sharon, you've asked me that a thousand times!

Besides, we didn't just 'meet'

we found each other.

You mean, I found you

Yes... I got lost and you found me

I had no idea where I was"

And it's been 5 years now, haven't it?

Yes

5 long years.

You know, It says here in this book

that you can find your soul mate that way

What?

Asking directions?

No, silly...

It's like...

walking in a crowd and meeting a complete stranger

feeling like you've met before...

It's like 

you've read too many fantasy books

Did you feel that way when I met you?

Don't know...

I was lost remember?

I was too miserable to notice.

Lizzy?

Hm?

You think

we would ever find our soul mates in this lifetime?

Maybe...

Maybe not.

years...

We've been through everything

haven't we, Sharon?

But is this all there is to it?

Lizzy

Hm?

Do you feel it?

Feel  what?

This is it!

I can feel that person is very near

Who?

My soul mate!

that person is very close indeed

as if that person is right beside me...

I just know

today is the day

You always say that

but you never find him anyway

But today is different!

I can feel it!

Yeah, right!

Isn't there anything else in that head of yours

but this soul mate shit?

But...

There are so many things in this world!

so many things I want to do...

there must be more to life than searching for someone

who may not even exist!

But Lizzy...

I'm leaving.

No...

I want to stay here.

Please Lizzy, stay here with me...

No.

~~~

Isn't it funny?

How we seem to drift through life

searching for something

or someone to make us complete

... And time just seems to drift away ...

I find myself in a tavern,

with a child crying by my feet.

He looks so helpless

his face full of filth 

... I want to protect you ...

Why do you cry?

I have lost my way and cannot find mother

And a group of bad men are out chasing me

What do they want from you?

I don't know

But they mean to hurt me

for there is fear when I see them

Come with me, little one

they won't dare touch you if they see me near

Now don't cry

Come.

I will help you look for your mother

Where did you see her last?

I don't know

but it was a high place

where you feel like flying

How does she look like?

She looks a bit like you

and a bit like me

Not much...

but let us see

I know of a high place 

where the strong wind makes you feel like flying

Do you see anyone you know?

Not yet

Keep looking

She would be searching for you as well

There! Right there!

The mother talks to her child

...

I've been looking for you for so long!

Where have you been?

But now we are back together

there is nothing more to worry about

Come now let's go home...

Without a backward glance

they leave me

Such are young children.

Now again I am alone

But wait...

there in the crowd is a familiar face...

Who could it be?

Is it from the past?

Yes

From my past...

my dear sister...

How long has it been since I last saw you?

No reply

Don't you recognize me?

It is I,

 your sister

Yes...

I know it is you...

and I know it's been long

for it's been seven years since you've died

Me?

Dead?

You can't be serious!

It's true.

There had been an accident.

We lost you that day.

There was such a crowd.

No...

It can't be true!

How could it be when I am here now?

Could it be that you are in search of something?

Of someone that would make you complete?

Could it be that you cannot rest until you find it?

Yes.

That is true.

I am searching for something...

all these years I have thought that I was alive

when in reality there was no life within me

But 

What is it that I long for?

Please...

Take me to the one that would make me 

complete.

The place quivers

and seems to vanish.

When it clears, I find myself in the same spot.

In the exact same place.

In front of me

descending a flight of stairs,

is Sharon.

There is sadness in her eyes.

She looks up.

Her face starts to beam.

Lizzy!

You've come back to me!

Sharon...

it was you all along...

Lizzy...

Please don't leave me again...

I'm sorry...

if I only held on

then perhaps

I could have

... stayed ...

The wind blows

everything turns to mist

carrying everything away

leaving nothing behind

Only memories.
