Chapter 4
"WHAT!" shouted Keely in fear, "Phil, tell me right now Is that possible!" she asked, she was hoping that the answer would be no, but unfortunately …
"I'm sorry Keel I think it is possible." He felt like all the happiness he felt drained away, it felt impossible that from only 10 seconds he was the happiest man on earth.
"How could that possibly happen?" She asked her eyes looking directly at Phil.
"Well Keely don't forget that we're playing with time and that's very dangerous." He looked at Keely his eyes full of tears and surprisingly he found hers too full of tears, "I'm sorry Keely, I guess our only hope is gone."
"No" said Keely with a straight face, "It's not"
"What do you mean "It's not"?" he said turning around facing Keely. She looked him straight in the eye and told him with all her courage.
"Do it"
"What? Keely, are you insane? Didn't you hear what is the risk?"
"I did and I'm willing to take it, Look suppose it worked then we'll be together."
"Well what if it doesn't"
"At least I will be freed from all the pain that I feel everyday, you don't know what it's like…"
"What? I have been living in a nightmare without you, every morning was just the beginning of a new pain…"
"Phil! I meant for a girl"
"Oh yeah" he felt a little awkward but he was thankful that he didn't get to the part were he cried.
"Look Phil I'm ready to do it"
"What if.."
"We'll never know unless we try" she looked at him.
"she's right you know" Will said they had forgotten all about him.
"Ok, are you ready?" asked Phil breathing hardly
"Yes"
Phil's hand shakily went to his wizard. When
"wait" said Keely
"Having second thoughts?" asked Phil
"No I just want you to know Phil that I really do love from the bottom of my heart, when you were away every thing in me called your name, and if it didn't work I'll still love you." They both looked at each other and they were both about to cry, Phil took Keely's hand and put it on his wizard.
"Put your other hand in mine" said Phil, she obeyed and he squeezed her hand.
"One…two… three" He clicked on his wizard and once he did there was a big colorful typhoon surrounding Phil and Keely they saw a lot of faces in it, he saw his father and mother's faces and Keely's parents too. The typhoon started carrying them slowly and then suddenly it started turning them around so fast. After what felt like hours Phil saw two jars of salt and pepper together and the typhoon threw Phil and keely back on the floor, but not at school, no it was at the park where Phil has met Will earlier. Phil saw Will he was waiting for them, he came running to Phil and Keely.
"Are you guys ok?" asked Will worried, but Phil didn't answer he was worried about Keely, will she remember him?
"Keely do you know who I am?" his heart pumping. Keely looked at Phil for a second as though she was trying to remember. She kept staring at his face, Phil couldn't take it anymore it was torture he knew that she has forgotten him. That was it. He got to his feet and started walking away, that was it there was no more Keely…
"You were never patient, Salt" Phil stopped he knew that it was Keely's voice, he turned around and found that she was standing there looking at him with one eyebrow raised, smiling at him.
"Keely" he was so happy, before he could do anything Keely came running to him and she hugged him.
"We're finally together" they both said. Phil looked at his friend and whistled to him, once Will heard this whistle he threw Phil a box, obviously that was something they planned. Phil caught the box and for Keely's amazement she found Phil leaning on one knee holding her right hand and he opened the box with his other hand, there were two rings in it.
"Keely, Will you marry may?" said Phil hardly getting the words out of his mouth. Keely started to cry in happiness, whenever she opened her mouth to talk nothing came out.
"Yes" she finally said, "A thousand times yes"
Phil hugged Keely and carried her, he started turning her round and round and round. They were both happy. This was a day that neither one of them will ever forget.
