"I will love you till the day I die Winifred foster!" Jesse yelled as the wagon tumbled down the path into the distance.

Winnie ran into the woods, she dodged past the evergreens surrounding her… hair dripped of rain. She raced to the springs where she would feel safe, where all the memories flowed back to her mind. Winnie kneeled by the water, and in it, her reflection appeared.

" this is what I choose" she whispered

Winnie cupped the water in her hands, and with a deep huffing breath, sipped the water till nothing bared.

"I will wait for the day you return my dear Jesse Tuck" explained Winnie

Winnie shuffled across the forest floor into the darkest parts of the woods, never to be seen again.


I stared at Winnie's grave. Tears streaming down my flawless face. There was no doubt about it…she was dead.

I'm sorry Winnie… I shouldn't have left you here…

I couldn't bare to look at Winifred Forster's grave any longer, but her name engraved on the stone captivated me. I was sealed in a stare. I turned my face away, the pain still crawling through my veins.

I strided towards my motorbike, and hopping on it, my eyes caught glimpse of a young lady across the street. She reminded me of my beautiful Winnie.

There's no one in the world that could replace you Winifred…

One last look and I turned on my bike and rode through traffic. Cars honked and people yelled through their windows as I sped through the metal wagons.

Wagons…when I left Winnie I rode off in our wagon. My sight went blurry, the tears built in my eye. My palm sweat and stared to slip off my handle grips.

I looked at my gas tank

"almost empty…I guess I better stop and refill it…" I wept.

I slowed into a gas station near by.

Am I seeing things? Wasn't that lady just…

I saw her again…the girl who reminded me of Winnie

She was different in many ways though. Her hair was a deep violates red. Her eyes, a sky blue. She appeared to be moving towards me. My legs went numb and my hands started to shake

What is she coming here for?

Her smile warmed me, her teeth as white as pearls. She was extremely graceful on her feet. Closer and closer she came, this time jogging.

"jesse?" she yelped?

..I stood there unmoving.

Who was this strange women? And how does she…

My eyes widened and my heart skipped beats.

"JESSE TUCK!" she jumped into my arms squeezing me tightly. I knew right there…but it couldn't be…my Winnie? Alive? But how?

"W…Winifred Foster?" I asked confused but happily.

IT WAS HER!

My heart now beating uncontrollably. I couldn't find the breath to ask her what I was thinking.

"Winnie?! How are you…but your… you're suppose to be dead by now!" I shrieked

She pulled away from my hug and stared at me.

"well I'm sorry to disappoint you…" she joked.

Her eyes glistened through the sunlight. In my heart was no longer empty but filled with love… love I felt for Winnie. Her hair blew in the breezing wind.

"you said you'd love me till the day you die…" she looked away "so I decided that… I will love you till the day I die to…and so on"
