I am not what my mom thinks I am, I am not what dad thought I was, I am not what the closest person to me thought I was, I am much more than that, Not much better than that but not worse either and staying away from them for this long has made me realise a lot
sure Toronto is much more far from them...

The sounds of twigs breaking was very familiar now, and I hated that, 'I didn't want to be here in the first place, this woman who thinks she can control me has brought me here'
"Hey Zach," she said catching up to me as we were walking
"What?" My anger and frustration were clearly visible now
"I just wanted to say, I am sorry, I shouldn't have done that" she said with some moisture in her eyes
"No don't be, you have done more harm to yourself than me" I didn't look at her once
"But still, I shouldn't have run with your keys"
"Leave it"
'Isn't she acting strangely for someone like her'
'Who was that old man? I am you? He must be stoned or something'
"Zach, I think I found a way out" she said tapping my shoulder rapidly
"Oh really?!"
She pointed towards the rays coming from the tree canopy, we rushed there as soon as possible.
""Oh"" we said in unison, a disappointment ran up her face, she looked really sad
It was the same place we came to the first time we met
"I am sorry, I really thought that-"
"Phew! Finally, some light, you don't know how hard it was to walk in the dark finally I can see this place again I loved this view last time" I said stretching out my shoulders
"What?" she said perplexed
"Yeah, I have been wanting to see this place so badly since last time"
"Uh-"
"Hey Luna let's sit over there" I said pointing towards a rock
The last time we came here, I didn't appreciate the beauty this place has, but now I was feeling peaceful, the night winds and the moon, the stars all looked so dazzling up here in county side.
But after a while the mosquitoes started to their thing,
"here" she handed me the mosquito repellent as she saw me clapping in the air for no one,
"Oh, thank you"
"So, Mr. Stargazer, enjoying the view?"
"Huh? Oh yeah, the stars are much more visible here" I said looking at the sky
"What about you?" I asked
"Yeah, I find it amazing too" she said rolling up her bracelet
"Did someone give you that bracelet?"
"Oh, this? It used to belong to my sister"
"Used to?"
"Yeah, before she passed away, she gave me this" she smiles a lot but her eyes are sad
"I am sorry. I shouldn't have asked"
"It was a night like this, we were sitting on our house roof gazing the stars, talking about all kind of stuff, she said she liked someone in her class, and I was continuously telling her to not to focus on these kind of stuff"
She was clearly lost in thoughts, I should have gotten her back to the present moment, she would regret telling all this to me later
I chose to listen
"She asked if I liked someone, she asked what about Simon? I said no way, making a disgusted face although I liked him... she gave me this bracelet telling me to wear this whenever I feel like my emotions are hard to accept"
I noticed her bracelet not a while ago, but for a fact I know she has been wearing this since the first time we met, does she struggle in accepting her emotions is it hard for her to? Does she convince herself like I do? I was curious and then a sudden realization, I have become what I hated I didn't want to know about her past because I cared, how could I? I may like her but I don't know her. I wanted to stop her and bring her back from past, but I still wanted to hear all that so I didn't. Perhaps I should have stopped her, perhaps.
"Luna...this is what she used to call me, just wear this and you will fly in the sky just like the moon, I told her to stop saying this and that she was being cringe. She stood up on the roof, giggling and laughing, all I could do was to admire her beauty, my sister was the most beautiful woman in my family, she was the kind of girl any guy would flip over, she had a caring personality, but at that time her care for me was a lot more than any guy" she was smiling remembering her past,
at first I hesitated a little but then I asked
"I am sorry but what happened to her?"
And suddenly the face that was lit up so bright just now disappeared.
