His Reason ( Greenday)

August 19, 2021

Here comes the rain again, falling from the stars. Drenched in my pain again becoming who we are

These are the Words I Might Have Ate when I saw her. She's A Rebel in her own world I sometimes call her Riot Girl or my alien. A week at school will consist of her At The Library being glued on a book, a Brat who always skips classes, doing paper lanterns on breaks. Having a Basket Case of stories she can tell on her friends while walking on their way home. The Best thing in town is having guards put up on every corner of the streets to ensure the safety of the students passing by.

Maria, a very pretty girl back then and now. When we were together, I will always have a smile plastered on my face, just thinking about her. For me, she's an Extradorniray Girl who can do everything, I can be at her command always even though I am much younger than her. We're always Hitchin a ride when we go on our dates. All the time that I am with her I felt completely myself. I love her so much that I want to marry her even though we are not at the right age.

We plan to meet at their house for her to introduce me to her family and the next I plan to introduce her to my family as well. During that night, something came up at home. My sister ran away because my father doesn't want her to build a relationship with a married man. So I went out to find her all by myself. I kept n finding on places she might have been and I was losing hope and went to the only remaining place she might be, the married man's house.

My generation always has these abrupt actions between teenagers so I understand her at some point. Are we the waiting people on the list to be married at an early age? I can't tell at that moment because most teenagers are Bored for Life, and they can't stay in only one place, the minority of us are those innocent ones who don't want to leave the confines of our homes.

I knock on the door a few times before someone answers and it's my sister. I ask her to talk outside. I was there to persuade her to come home and but she shouts at me like she's coming clean on all of her flaws.

And realizing her fault she cried and hug me and apologized. Even though I am in rage I still kept calm and told her to come home with me. Walking home it rained and we ran like we were some castaways being chased by some mafia group. Good Riddance we came home safely but soaked with rainwater

After my family settled, I changed clothes and walk my way to Maria's home. But when I went there, her mother was the one who faced me at the gate. Her mother told me that Maria came home drenched from the rain and her eyes are swelling and looked like she cried a lot.

I am a jackass for having no knowledge of what was happening to her. I, her parents, her friends, No one knows what happened to her that night

I walk these empty streets on the Boulevard of Broken Dreams, Maria never dare talk to me after that time, I keep on chasing her but she keeps ignoring me. She keeps her space from me, I want to shout out into the world that she's the one I want. I just want her to be stuck with me forever.

Days, weeks, months passed I became gloomy and brokenhearted. In the end, I became a disappearing boy, I feel like I was burnout, I have so many questions inside my head about what had happened to us.

Then on this holiday, I saw you sitting n a bench checking something on your phone.
Then reality hit me that what broke you before and scattered your heart into pieces was a plain misunderstanding. I want to run and follow you but I was just dumbfounded.

"That was my sister". how does she forget my sister's face in a span of days and accused me of something I would never ever do. This Homecoming is a mess, I don't want to fall in love anymore. Walking alone, I told myself this might be the end of us. Home I told my sister " Wake me up when September ends", I want to sleep and never wake up anymore.

Fin.
