See you in the next life

"It's been a year since you died...my love"

I thought carefully about entering the dark tunnel while remembering the painful events of the past.

I cannot accept her death. We also spent several years together before the day I waited for where we finally entrust to the Lord, our marriage. It hurts to think that in my own wedding, the day she died.

Erica died in a car accident, her car crashed into a big truck as she headed to the church venue. I waited for her in front of the altar but I slowly felt nervous. I thought at first that she might run from me, maybe she wasn't ready, maybe it wasn't time but my world collapsed when the accident was happened. Wearing my wedding clothes, what I did is to cry. It's very painful to lose a loved one especially she is your life. What else came to my mind. Can't eat, sleep, I don't even talk to anyone I isolated myself in my room and hoping that everything is just a dream until I thought of ending the pain and the pain that was wrapping my heart so hard.

I went to the side of a bridge. I think nothing but Erica. This is the only place I can think of. At its depth no one will survive.

"I want to be with you again...Erica"

I was still planning to jump when I saw an old man coming to me.

"Go away...Don't stop me" I still beg to say that.

"I can feel the pain that wraps your heart around it, and I know a place that will help"

My forehead knelt but someone pushed myself to go with the old man. I was not in the mood to go with him and as we walked he explained to me the place where I could see the other world, the rest of my life and the new destiny but I was also the main character.

He called it the parallel universe,

I decided to come in here because nothing would be lost if I tried right? From the dark tunnel I went to a place I knew was familiar. I'm right now at our University and I know exactly where I'm going. I know this was my life before everything around me looks familiar. I stopped to see the reflection in a mirror, I'm a girl? But I know in myself that this was my life maybe this would be my opposite character in entering this world.

"I'm so good"

The old man is right I'm now in the other world. My gender is female and my name is different but my heart and mind knows that I'm a guy.

It's normal every day even though I know there is a slight change. Dream reminds me of my previous world as I had ever dreamed about this world. I know it's kinda confusing.

The day came when I met Bryce and again I felt true love. Even if appearance is different still it feels the same.

I'm very happy when I'm with him. I am excited every day to see him. I was comfortable with him and talked to him always. The feeling when my world stops every time he came to me proving that he's the one. Bryce is Erica's character in the parallel universe. The person I love in every the part of the world.

Happy days happened as if there were no tomorrow. I'm hoping that this now my destiny. Everything's fine and happy again.

In the few years that Bryce and I have been together he proposed to me and we all know that we will end up in marriage.

I got to our wedding and I saw Bryce watching over the altar. I was so happy because I was walking closer to him that didn't happen before I heard of the accident before Erica arrived at our wedding.

I was very close but I noticed that Bryce was not looking at me. Doesn't he see me?

A man whispered next to him and I could see the shock on his face. Gradually his tears flowed. There are people who are panicking and also wondered what's really happening.

It became clear that someone had just passed my body but penetrated it.

I died in a car accident and my soul is here today. I didn't think of myself and was deeply hurt for Bryce. He cried. I could see the sadness and anger on his face. The erosion of his world. I only followed him as he continued to moan of what happened. I could see myself before him.

"Please take me with you.. " Bryce said who made me feel nervous. I was worried that he might be thinking of ending his life

"Please keep on fighting in life my love, you have still more dreams right? Don't waste your life...Bryce "

He couldn't even hear me or see I hugged him and cry with him.

******

I woke up while my eyes still swollen. Did I seem to be back in my old world as if nothing had happened. My tears fell when I saw a picture of us.

"Can I really handle this my love?"

A strong wind passed through the room, my fur rose and I felt like someone was hugging me.

If I were alive I would believe Bryce is also alive in the parallel universe. We just changed fortune. But still I believe that was me.

"I know you're here Erica and also say I should keep going. I'm now okay my love don't worry about me. It's just sad to think that even in the other world our fate is still the same, it still ends on a tragic love story"

End~
