I was crying.

But how could I stop my tears? She didn't remember me! Even though I already knew that Gaia would have erased her memories. But I still hoped that she would remember it all... Somehow.

She came near me and placed her warm hands gently over my face while staring in my eyes. Her gaze was so.... heavenly. Even mother does not feel that heavenly to me. She wiping away my tears with her thumb. It was exactly like that day. Her actions carried an echo of the time when met. My angel didn't change at all.

In her beautiful eyes were questions, about me, about my tears. I wanted to tell her everything to make her remember what she had forgotten. I wanted her to remember that night when I fell in love with her.

My mouth opened, wanting to tell her things she didn't know. But those memories flashed in my mind before any word could escape.

The memory of how she saved me from the darkness of my heart. The memory of how she blessed me with a new life by sacrificing something very precious to her. The memory of how I had vowed to give my life for her. I vowed to protect her forever and love her the way no one can until the end of time.

Ten years later, we meet again. And what happens? She protects me again. I couldn't fulfil a single promise. I couldn't even become the angel she d.e.s.i.r.ed me to be. Instead, I followed the darkness inside me.

I couldn't tell her anything. I feared that she'd be disappointed in me. I feared she'd leave me if I told her everything.

I already knew that I was unworthy of even being near this person who possessed the purest of hearts.

Not yet, at least.
