Hi guys, this is a story I wrote because of my friends asked me to. It's written over an evening I had in May where I realized the truth about the death of my best friend, who was like my soulmate. I had a hard time losing him, he really was my mate. And I miss him, of course I do. So, please read with a certain respect. I'm not asking you to understand, just to believe. You may comment whatever you like to this story.

She sat and stared into nothing. The rain was pouring down. Cleansing the world. Just not her. Her tears slid slowly down her cheeks. There was nothing. She was nothing. Heard nothing. Sat there and let the tears fall down her cheeks. Why now? Why would it happen now? In the midst of May. In the midst of the examinations? No, not now. She wasn't even ready to collapse. They didn't has to know now, did they? The song replayed again and she shrank. Why her? Why him? Why them? Why did everything happen to them? Why did everything happen to her? It wasn't fair. Nothing was fair. And then. She deleted the last thought. It wasn't fair! Nothing could ever say else. He was 21. She was 18. She didn't deserve having this faith to carry this sorrow. Not even close to. He didn't deserve death either. But if she had to pick between death and sorrow she would have chosen death for sure. But not even die was she allowed to. The tears now fell quicker and the silent sobs was seen on her breath. It was evening. They stayed away from her at this time. Not because she wanted them to enter. They knew she hadn't recovered yet, but it hurt so to open her mouth. It hurt so to tell why she cried. It hurt so to think about it. And now she sat thinking. 4 years. Was it everything they had together? The two of them. Poor 4 years. She removed the tear from the cheek and let it slid from her finger to the table. It shined in the bright moonlight. Yukiru. Tim. Her thoughts screamed his named. Where was he when she needed him? Dead. The word cut its way through her thoughts and tears came back in her eyes. He was dead. That summer in 2006 had done everything. It had saved her life. He had saved her life. Only him. Even though he was German and she Danish. Even though there was an age difference at 3 years between them. Even though men were bastards. He was her angel. Her heart shrink and she cried. Cried big tears. Big heavy tears and she could no longer keep it inside. She sank crying to the floor and crawled under the table. In here, she was safe from everything. Everything except one thing. The pain. It overtook her like always. Even when she didn't care. How could she has been acted like the way she did? How had she ever could be that cold and cynical? She could no longer forgive herself. Also even though he already had forgiven her. She took her hand and held her shirt tightly. Right over her heart. She had been questioning so often. Why? She closed her eyes and saw his face. Whispering she said his name. Reached out to touch him. Feel him. She wished to see him again. For everything. If he would come back to her. Hold her in his arms and smile. Tell her everything would be okay, the way he used to. Talk German with her. Tease her. She would give up her life form him. Even if it could bring him back. But it couldn't. The facts beated her. She knocked and slid into her brain. Talked, mesmerizing the little things. Destroying her dreams. Bringing back her pain and her sorrow. Bringing back what she had been longing for. And the memories. Forced them to come out. She desperately opened her eyes and reached out for him when the picture faded away. Once again she sat crying. Never in her life she would have thought she felt like this. So left alone. It couldn't be described in another way. It was nothing against leaving her family or losing a friend. It was just so.... left alone. Nothing else. She was all alone. No matter how much they told her that they loved her. No matter how much they said they would help her. They couldn't do anything. Only he could help and now he had gone. Gone with the wind. She felt how the sorrow turned to anger. On him, the phantom rider and the world. She released her shirt from her hand and stared into the back of the table. Why had he left her? Did he really wanted to let go of her? Did he wish to die? Only so he didn't has to see her. Her hands became fits and she forced the power to hit something to stay down. If he wanted her to leave it had been possible! He could have told. She would never visit him again. She would have forgotten all his friends. Never have been visiting Germany again. Once again the anger turned to sorrow. The song was on replay. On top of the table. Why that song? It had released everything. All those memories she sat left alone with. Everything. She started to cry again. She could have been asking why forever. There was so much left behind. They never tried walking on the beach at night. They never travelled together. How could she possibly do that now? Without him. World would be crashing. Now when she had finally realized his death. Now when... Now when she was left alone. Her thought left and she fell asleep with the silver-coloured tears down her cheeks under the table. Tortured by sweet nightmares.
