Mysteries, Memories, Pain

Life. It is such a tangible and intangible thing all at the same time, and it is very beautiful. If one were to compactly answer the question that many cannot: What is the meaning of life?, then would you be able to enjoy it more? 

Become joyous. Be joyful. A petal and a bullet are two sides of the same coin.

EPISODE 3

"Move.."

My heart pounds in my chest, hard. Once. Twice. Then it stops. Then it hits a third time, and I stumble backwards. What the hell?, I mutter as I gather myself and take in the surroundings. They are familiar..and yet, distorted? I rub my eyes and the darkness subsides. I take a deep breath, just like she taught me, and take one again. I start walking to the school which was now less than a minute away and yet here I was, more than 15 minutes late. I start running again, then jogging, as to not repeat what just happened. I really am a loser. I can't even save myself.

"Finally.", she says, exhaling, relieved. "What took you so long??".

I stare at her, not being able to look away. Per usual. Her hair was a mix of the most beautiful colour palette of peach, her lips coated with perfect red lipstick. Her face, from her jawline to her forehead, all look stunning. Her face also has red spots on both cheeks, which weren't there before when I came in..

"Why are you looking at me like that?", Lisa says, her face getting redder and redder. She pouts, her lips forming a perfect O. "I'm asking you why you're so late, not to stare at me like I'm a green goblin."

I blush too, and look away, not realising that I had been staring. 'S-sorry.", I say, looking down and shuffling my feet nervously and embarrassedly, rubbing the back of my neck with my right hand.

She makes a tsk noise before coming closer until our bodies almost touch. She gently holds my chin and forces my to look at her. Into her gorgeous pink and blue eyes. For which I'm not complaining, of course.

"No, it's okay.", she breathes, so genuinely that my heart does a 360 cartwheel. "I..It's not like I mind. If anything, I.."

"I like you, Hiacho."
