81 Miguel M

Years of being with Miguel were like a dream, a wonderful dream you didn't want to wake up from. You thought nothing could ever happen to hurt you or separate you, because your relationship was healthy, full of gifts and constant affection. Days before, you had felt a strange sensation, something that unsettled you as time went on, but when Miguel arrived, everything around him turned white and it seemed as if only the two of you existed.

“You’ve been acting strange, darling. Is something bothering you, or are you just like this for no reason? You are strange, but not that strange.” Miguel ’s words made you giggle a little , and you shook your head as you hugged him. “Everything is always perfect with you, Miguel… never leave.” Those words ended up costing you your happiness, or at least that ’s how it felt. The next day, the news was reporting something strange in space, and that only increased your worry. You got up to grab your phone, but a strong tremor shook everything around you. You lost your balance and fell to the ground, unconscious. When you woke up, some police officers had found you. All you could hear was an unbearable screech, and your body was covered in dirt. Little by little , you began to understand what they were saying. *

• A serious earthquake had occurred… and there was a possibility of another. But you could barely think of anything else. You just kept repeating one name…Miguel.
