Tryst

 Tryst

*a secret rendezvous (especially between lovers)

Lux: "It’s been 4 years since we married each other- I, I want an annulment…I, I- I don’t know how what is wrong in this marriage… I gave everything, and I left everything behind, my career, my family, and myself just to look after this marriage?… Have you ever thought about this in the first place?"

Nathan: "I’m sorry Lux, I, I-I know what I've done is not forgivable enough but please… You could do what you wants to me but annulment?"

Lux: "Don’t tell me what to do… In the first place, cheating is a choice, not a

mistake!"

Nathan: "I can give you a-anything, just don't do it."

Lux: "I've never expect this to say but, the wound you give is too deep, after all, I

still keep."

She took a deep breath.

Lux: "Let’s just forget everything."

(She gave her ring to Nathan and then she left with her belongings)

3 days later

Lux: "Dear Mom, Dad, how are you today?"

(Talking to her parent’s grave)

Lux: "I don’t know what path I’ll chose from now on."

Lux: "I should be happy now since I am free now, but why I do feel like a lost soul on a sinking boat. I am so done with life now."

Lux: "And, I wonder what might happen if I end my life now. So that, I can finally be in peace. Since today is you’re 8th death anniversary, Sorry, that I choose to be with that person. I’ve been running all this time, I wish there is someone who can bring time, I will definitely act wisely."

Lux: "How cold today is-, Mom and Dad?"

(She stood up and gave her final farewell to her parent’s grave).

11:47 at an abandoned building

Lux: "What a bad day to die."

The weather is not cooperating with Lux. The night sky is completely covered by

heavy clouds that any moment can start to rain. Like what is it like when there

is a storm coming.Plus the loud sound of the thunder.

Lux: "Don’t I look like a poor soul?"

( While looking in the sky)

Lux: "Even the weather is not cooperating… I just want to die peacefully~"

???: "How poor of us."

(She immediately look up to that person)

Lux: "Who are you, Mr?"

???: "Just someone who had the same goal~"

Lux: "You want to die, too?"

???: "Yup, but looking at you, I've changed my mind…. I’ll just gonna watch you…"

Lux: "Even you?!... At least do it in a different place!"

???: "Hmm..."

 Lux: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

 ???: "Nothing… You’re gonna waste the beauty you have."

Lux: "So what?... I lost everything, I cannot do anything now and you're saying

that to a person who wants to die, now?"

???: "What if I say, you still have a chance to change everything."

Lux: ( Smile ) "I already heard that… Even a thousand times I'd changed everything... the

ending I want is not always valid!"

( A tear fell from her left eye and the rain

started to fall out from the sky.)

Lux: "Hey! Mr. -May, I at least know your name?:
