Memento

Everyone's been asking, why is that thing still around your ankle?

I never knew the exact answer to tell them but I thought, it's not yet time to remove it. Simply because I still LOVE him.

It's a gift from him to me, in fact, it's the ONLY gift I've ever received from him. It is that important.

This ankle-band contains many memories, so many that it meant more than just merely a memento. I just couldn't let it go now, perhaps time but I really don't know how long will I take.

I could still remember so clearly the day when he tied the ankle-band on me. I asked if the ankle-band is used to tie me down to him forever.

He answered, 'YES.'

I think I'm just an ignorant fool to him now, a fool that wouldn't accept the changed reality.
