Someone was dragging my hair into the abyss of what appears to be a deep pit. My eyes adjusted to adapt with the dim light barely coming from several holes on the wall. My arms are lifted up to jerk out the massive control over my head."Good morning, Alyana!"That voice snatched me back to reality. That dream was intense, beads of sweat are shown on my forehead and nose tip even with the cold huffs coming from the air conditioner."Tarn is here to greet you too" Rave, who's sitting with a wide smile on the edge of my chair, lifted up that furry thing. She even efforted to give it a name huh? Fine, let's call it Tarn. Upon landing it on the blanket, Tarn made it's way to me and rubbed its hairy cheeks to my arm. Rave giggled on the attitude displayed by the cat.

Alyana's POV"The house is burning! Hurry and call for help!"Everyone was stirring like ants in a hot pan, saving every necessary thing that they could still bring out from the growing fire.Thick black smoke started to rise over the trees and condominiums along the highway next to a well-known park.People are moving from one direction to another, doing their best to help put the fire out. Crying and breaking down from despair for lost can bee seen on everyone's faces, may it be young or old. The growth of fire was the same swing of uproar. Almost everyone shows sadness, others are emotionless like blank sheets of useless paper- except for one. In the unlit corner of the street, a gir

Hero's POVIt took me a few more puffs and the cigarette was totally burnt out. I threw that useless thing and stepped on it. I tightened my jaw in an attempt to suppress my unexplained resentment.Alyana can ask anything and I'm willing to do it except for holding my hand. Sometimes I'm cursing this ability that I have. Sometimes, I don't. This potential was something that I discovered in a bitter way when I was a kid: I can wipe out or erase any event in anyone's memory permanently by holding their palm directly. The amount of memory loss was according to the length of time interval I held on anyone's paw. It's been twenty minutes since the ten years old me started wandering out in the forest. I and my dad are on a camping trip. Already at 5:30 pm and its st

It was a fair day, the strike of the clock and its continues swing didn't bother Alyana in combing her hair, she's taking her time in staring at the tired young lady who's gazing back at her in the mirror, light colors of makeup are laid on her porcelain skin. A forest of undeciphered mystery can be seen in her eyes, and in the middle of that forest was her, just her: ALONE. She took few deep breaths before laying her mint green hairbrush into the compartment of her drawer. She was just supposed to put it there but her eyes took her longer in a stare because she caught another glimpse at notebook she left unopened a few days ago, the notebook where she wrote the names. She ran her slim fingers to take the thing up when she suddenly heard someone hit his car horn outside, she was more than sure of who that man was, this day was basically assigned as the

"It's been two months since the last time that we went here and it became so messy already" Hero said in his relaxed voice while looking around.Alyana furtively slipped her hand inside the bag, when she pulled it out, her phone was tightly held in it. She directly clicked on the gallery and ran to view the details of the videos and pictures, yes, it was exactly two months ago.Finally satisfied, she put the gadget back to the bag quietly.The church was almost in the heart of the forest, everything is still, not even the sound of the leaves scratching each other's edges can not be heard, just plain serenity. The fresh and cool ambient was comforting but robes the ability to bring back the memories of a happy couple separated by death and time.Alyana was now staring at the a
