Drabble Three: Don't Forget.
"Today of all days",with a sigh,Rey Za Burrel took out his album,he skimmed through it before finding one paticular picture that caught his eye.It had him and his subordinate,Sam Berniger,flashing smiles and the peace sign,as she put it,in their uniforms.He smiled at the memory before tucking it safely in a small frame he had on his desk. He closed the album and put it back under his desk,grabbing the frame and along with it,an array of flowers.Today the red zaft uniform was not needed,Today was special.Even if he had to wear all black because of it.
He walked out of the ship and onto the grassy planes of Earth.The air was unusually sweet smelling as he made his way to a grave sight.He smiled to himself,green eyes filled with tears that begged to be let out,but he refused,for the dignity and life of him,them to escape.He knelt down smiling gently.
"Hello suboridanate Berniger...",He murmured to himself as he placed the flowers at her grave sight.And the photo in the frame as well,replacing the one that was already there.The photo of her,caught off guard,as one of the other soilders ordered her to turn around,as she flushed lightly,trying to salute,but the photo had been taken much too soon.And made it look like she was merely blocking the sun from her eyes.
The elite chuckled to himself. "I admit,Miss Berniger,I was taken aback when I first heard what had happened to you...I admit,I wanted to believe it was all a lie.Now that I'm here..I...I guess I have to accept it..You're..",He sighed to himself slowly,he just couldn't say it.It was then a flash of memory interrupted his train of thought.
"Roger sir...,But...you have to promise you won't forget
me either!",She smiled bravely to him,fighting back
tears,the mere thought of his death,apparently,scared her
to a great extent,She placed her remaining hand over his
and smiled as a tear dripped onto it.And he smiled back at
her with concern.Before wiping her eyes fear of tears
begging to be set free.
He sighed to himself again,and got up from his spot. "That day we promised we'd never forget the other if they should receive an early death.I just didn't see hers coming before my own...",he nodded to himself thoughtfully and hummed her favorite tune.He rocked back and forth uneasily,He smiled at the memory of her sweet voice singing the song.It just became a habit of his to hum the tune whenever she wasn't around at his side.
"I will remember you..Will you remember me?Don't let your life pass you by,weep not for the memories",He whispered the chorus to himself,brushing back golden locks and turning to take his leave before the wind broke out against him,he shuddered.It was a large blast of it.And he could swear he started hearing things.
of course I remember you...but I was more afraid to lose,clinging to a path that doesn't let me choose.
He blinked slowly and turned around,half expecting someone to be there,and...the other half knowing there wasn't.His eyes fell on a barely visable figure sitting along his subordinates grave,smiling sweetly,with eyes half closed,and glowing white lines running down its cheeks.The elite stood in shock at it,shaking a bit.His eyes slowly filled with water again,as he saw it rocking back and forth much like a child,singing in his subordinates pretty voice,no doubt in his mind that it was hers,the same song he was humming before.
"S-Sa--",that was all he could manage before the wind broke her image,and let himself fall to the grassy earth,heartbroken as tears fell from his emerald eyes.
Weep not for the memories.
He turned his head to the sky,and sighed to himself as he got back up and walked to his ship.And with a smile as he looked out the window once more,to see the same figure as before,dance before the grave,spinning,twirling and,as far as he could make out.Singing.And with that he sighed greatfully to himself,and waved to the grave as a single tear made its way down his cheek.
Don't let your life pass you by.For we are known for our memories.
Idk what to say honestly,I thought I was totally gonna blow it,and i dk if this is as sad as the other one was.Even though with the right music,a person can break down.lol Hope you enjoy it
