Full Moon no Mahou
Prelude: Wish Upon The Moonlight…
It was a beautiful night. I remember lying on my bed, looking up at my skylight and admiring how big and so so near the moon looked. The sky was inky black and stars were littered all around, bathing in it's blue glow – it was a truly heavenly view.
I remember how the tears suddenly came, blurring my vision. I remember how everything came back to me in a rush. I remember how broken, how lost and hopeless I felt. I remember how cold my whole body became when he broke the news to me. I remember how hard I tried to stop myself from breaking down in front of everyone. I remember feeling as if the words weren't coming from my mouth but another's, my voice so tense and strangled as I congratulated him on his engagement. I remembered excusing myself from the table as he looked down into his cup, not willing to look at me.
All the memories of him came back to me at that instant. Of the first time we met. Of the first time he kissed me. Of how we got together. Of the many times I spent with him. His smell. His very presence. How he laughed, how he smiled.
I remember how I was sobbing so hard that my whole body shook. I remember the pleas that came out of my mouth for something, someone, any one out there to just take me away. Anywhere but there. And how, suddenly, a melody wafted into my room, so beautiful and ghostly. I was so startled that I immediately sat up, and my sobbing ceased almost immediately. I remember how suddenly, the glow of the moon became so bright, I was blinded by it. I remember how a searing pain suddenly filled my whole body, so painful I couldn't even bring myself to scream. And at last I remember no more but the soft rustle of feathers from somewhere as I lost consciousness…
