I will always remember the time spent with her forever. One month before Valentine's Day "Hey, who's your Valentine's Day date?" » Adam, my best friend asked me on the way home from college. I laughed at myself when I gave him a don't ask face. “You better buy one soon man or you’ll miss out on all the fun next month.” "Maybe." after that only the sound of cars could be heard. Three weeks before Valentine's Day, I was walking down a small alley outside of the metropolitan city where I grew up and live. Only the trees accompanied me. I felt like a lone ranger. By myself when all my friends were out and going to get tuxedos for prom on Valentine's Day. “Oh my God, please send me an angel to be my date.” I screamed out loud. I knew it was impossible. I should die first and meet one in heaven. Out of the blue, I felt someone hug me from behind. “I want you to be my boyfriend.” a female voice whispered behind me. His warm breath on my back made my heart pound. Fast, too fast I think. My face turned red. Am I blushing? I turn around and there, standing in front of me, was a little girl with brown hair resting just above his shoulder. She wore a worn red cap, a sleeveless t-shirt. -a pair of shirts with knee-length shorts and battered sneakers. Her face would stun any man who laid eyes on her, hypnotized by her beauty. I almost thought God really sent me an angel if not for what she said. "Hi, my name is Eressa Kohl and no, I'm not an angel sent by God. She said trying to hold back her laughter. "Um... hi, my name is Kayn..... Kayn Tyremelon." she burst out laughing and the rest is history... middle of paper... far after that. I frantically grab the empty space trying to get her back. "Eressa! I love you... I really love you. I shouted my feelings for her hoping she would hear me. A month after Valentine's Day, I missed prom that night. I stood in front of a tombstone engraved with Eressa's name. I found his bones on the oak tree. I was still confused by the 'she' that Eressa spoke of. “She’s a great person, isn’t she?” a girl with long brown hair asked me. She is wearing a plain cream dress with a white summer hat. When she turned to me, I think my heart stopped beating. “Eressa?” I hugged her while she told him how much I really missed her. "I'm sorry sir, but I'm Maressa Kohl. Eressa's twin sister." Her face reddened and she slowly pushed me away. I gave him an embarrassed smile. Don't worry Eressa, I will take care of her.
