Prologue
This is the fact that you didn't know. This is about Aerith and me.
This is about the beginning
Reno
Chapter one : The dragonfly
That girl, Aerith Gainsborough.
I was falling in love with her
Guiding by her beauty, finally I found the real suffer of world
The beautiful suffer.
But, unfortunately
Before the code of human fakeness cracked
She had died
Left this sorta mystery for us
With all her innocence?
Or not?
The past:
"Reno, " she called my name
I turned my face. "What is it?" I asked her
"I remember what the prognosis said. I 'm scared." She spluttered softly
"Really? It's just a bunch of words. What do you afraid of that?"
"Tifa"
"What?"
"Tifa. Tifa Lockheart,"
"Who is that girl?"
"You don't know her? The black-haired girl. I've been watching for her recently,"
"For what?"
"A woman's intuition,"
"What?"
"I have a feeling that she would replace my place someday,"
For a while, it was silence…
"So, she will replace your place….I see…But what kind of place?"
"As Cloud's girlfriend. As his partner giving him spirits to the battle area. As the passive- hero behind Cloud. You know…"
For a moment, I felt my self was mastered by the jealosy.
I did really like her, but that time, hadn't told her.
Henceforth, I thought she would know it levelly as the time running
"You know Tifa Lockheart?
"Oh yes. I do. I really want to know what kind of right girl for Cloud,"
I wasn't sure that I really wanted to say this.
"You are the right girl for him," I said slowly.
I saw a little blush on her cheeks. But it was so fast, like a flash light.
I hate seeing her blushing for another guy except me.
But I knew that I'm not worth enough to get her blushed face.
"I do really want to be what you've said. But, as I know, my time won't be so long with him,"
"What?"
"The prognosis. I'm really sure that it will happen. And I know it needs some sacrifices," she muttered.
"Aerith. There won't be anything wrong happening to you. It's just in your mind," tried to calm her.
She wrinkled her eyes
"Boys….never fill their brain with philosophy and history,"
"Because knowing what has passed isn't very important," I responded
"But we learn from the past,"
"And we live for the future,"
Aerith stopped for few seconds.
I stole a glimpse at her. Did I say anything wrong?"
"May be…may be you don't believe it…..But I do believe that…." Her voice trembled.
I started to worry because of her serious-sad face.
"That the future just replays the past.
It always happens in this world.
Most of people don't know that because they don't pay enough attention to the running future, and the sleeping past.
But I know certainly that somehow the sleeping past will awake and take the future's place
So, the past will lead front, and control what will happen. This is the time we call future.
And the running future becomes so sleepy and it will take a rest. It will sleep, replace the past empty chair.
So, the future is the resurgence of the past, and the past is the metamorphism from the future
It will always be like that,"
I was surprised for hearing her words.
Since when she became that poetry?
She smiled and glanced at me.
"Still don't get it?"
Actually, I was starting to feel weird that time. I shook my head
She smiled warmly
"The battle of Holy and Jenova," she whispered.
I was shocked for a second.
"The battle of Holy and Jenova? That will happen again?"
She nodded surely.
"Yes. The tragedy killing my ethnic couples years ago. That's the sleeping past that now in the process to be the leading future,"
"It won't be happen,"
"Why are you that sure?"
"Why are you that confident to say that Holy and Jenova will meet again?"
"You don't believe me…"
"What I mean is…oh come on….It's just an old fact. It will be noted in the historical encyclopedia and BUSH! The book will be closed and buried by comics or um….playboy magazines…or yeah , other books. So will the fate of that moment be,"
"You're so thick headed, Reno,"
"Everyone will forget that,"
"Don't be that sure enough,"
Silence…
"Okay, so about Tifa Lockheart," she continued
"About that girl again?"
"I've checked her data. She was a childhood's friend of Cloud. She is beautiful enough, I didn't ignore that. And she gets a beautiful destiny too. Uh…I envy her…" she smiled
"Uh… Aerith, may I ask you something?"
"No, you may not,"
"Aerith…."
"Of course you may. I have answered your silly questions since many years ago," she suppressed.
"If Holy and Jenova meet, it means that will be a war. What I haven't got is….what will happen in that war?"
She is silent…
"Well, you know…a part will be the winner, on the other one will be destroyed. Don't you know that kind of fight motto?"
I shook my head, although I knew it.
She smiled again.
OH SHIT! I love her smiles
"And the winner will be?" I still asked her
"Don't know…,"
Oh, GODAMMIT. I was so stupid. So STUPID
I supposed to know the meaning of "don't know" that time
So may be I could prevent her death.
GODAMMIT ! This is what I regret in m next life.
"Well, as long as the past hasn't really opened its eyes, we can be relaxed right?"
She nodded spiritedly. "Yes, we can,"
"Reno…." She called me again
"I would like to ask for your help,"
"Just tell me what is it, old fellow,"
"Can you investigate Tifa more? I got many things to do lately,"
"Yes, of course. It would be easy for me,"
"Good…."
Silence….
Then, I saw her again
She looked beautiful
She looked innocent
She looked kind
She looked charming
She looked soft
I had to fight for keeping from this desire.
Oh my, she was so beautiful.
"Aerith…." This time I called her name.
She looked at me with her beautiful-innocent-wondering eyes
"I…I…." I was anxious
"What is it?"
She came over me and stood in front of me.
I couldn't hold it anymore.
It was totally great and I couldn't help
Then, sarcastically took her arm, clutched it.
My other hand reached her back, pressed her to me
And I burst my lips to her.
For a while, I could see she was shocked.
She tried to fight a little, it's not worth much
I kept giving her the butterfly kiss
Finally, she stopped fighting me and responded my kiss
I liked that moment.
We broke….
"I love you Aerith. Even that I know you will never respond my love,"
She was blushing
"What makes you so sure?"
This time, my turn to be shocked.
"Aerith…?"
