The Necklace

Prologue:

15 years earlier-

A tall young man in long flowing black cloak named Keita waited by the bridge for a young girl named Yuri. He stood by the bridge in the cold, windy rain waiting for his loved one's last goodbye. Soon a girl dressed in a green shirt, a long black skirt, and a denim jacket soon arrived. She looked upset, but as soon as Keita approached her she a smile spread across her face.

For many months, Yuri and Keita had been together. They shared some of there dearest moments together, but Yuri was promised to a cold heartless man named Taro. He was the type of man that doesn't care about anybody, but himself. He could careless if she got ran over by a car and sent to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). He and Keita were enemies since they were 12, for Taro's father took Keita's father's life. Taro had told Yuri many times that he wished the same fate upon Keita.

At this moment, all the threats that he made seemed to have no meaning at all. They hugged for a long period of time and they wished that the moment could last forever. This embrace felt so great that it felt so warm that they could no longer feel the rain falling and the cold wind felt like a warm summer breeze. After their heartwarming embrace, Keita asked Yuri " Do you really love Taro?"

Yuri was shocked at this question, but she replied " No, but it is best if I marry him, for if I don't he will do something too horrible too explain in words".

"Like what?" asked Keita.

"I don't want to think about that, please don't mention that anymore," Yuri asked with fright in her voice. She wasn't ready to think about something like that.

"Okay, I promised I won't say that again," replied Keita.

"Thank you" said Yuri.

"I'm going to miss you and since this is the last time I will able to see you I want you to have this ", Keita pulled a small box from his pocket and opened it. Inside was a small necklace with a small emerald charm. "I know it's you r favorite color".

" I love it. It's so beautiful." Yuri said.

" You've just got to promise me one thing…" Keita said.

"What?" Yuri asked with a soft voice.

"You've got to promise me you won't cry over me, always smile, and above all remember you are a great person who deserves great love and to always be happy with your life. A smile is no good, if your not truly happy."

"I promise ", said Yuri with a big smile. "Can I just get one last hug and kiss before I leave?" asked Yuri.

"Of course" said Keita as he soon took her into a warm embrace. This last moment felt so amazing, not even Taro could change the way she felt. She wondered why someone so ….so perfect had to leave from her life completely and never return. She cherished this moment. This was the moment when she truly understood the meaning of love.

They soon let go of each other and realized that it was late and Yuri had to go. "Before you go just let me put the necklace on you." He quickly put the necklace on her.

"I love you," said Yuri as she walked home.

" I love you, too " yelled Keita so she would hear him.

Once she was out of site he felt so lonely and depressed, he said his last words "I love you, Yuri". Then he stood upon the ledge of the bridge and jumped.

Yuri's House

Yuri lay down on her bed and held the pendant close to her heart. Her eyes were puffy because she had been crying since she talked to Keita earlier. 'He really did love me'. This thought echoed in her head. By the end of the next day, she would be married to Taro. She just lay on her bed and let her thoughts devour her. She soon fell asleep.
