MY MEMORY

by Hugo Ramirez

The day was October 27, 2006. It was one of my best, the day my ex-lady Diana and I went to a beautiful forest.

As hen you walk deeper into the forest, there are big trees, flowers that are amazing and fresh looking grass like you have never seen before.  Then, there is a beautiful lake with a nice view.  At that time, Diana was a just a friend. She had a light complexion with straight black hair. She had Chinese eyes and her hands were smooth and soft.

We walked side by side, talking, laughing, and smiling at each like we had been going out for the longest time. We both knew we felt happy, but very nervous.  We felt that every thing was right at that moment.  She liked me, I liked her.  But we never said anything to each other about how we felt until that night.

After a long walk and talking a lot, one thing let to another and out of no where, we just started kicking it. It was very romantic that day.  It was just a perfect memory. I don’t know how I could have done it better to get this girl.

After all that we just stopped and looked at the sunset. The sunset was beautiful cool, it looked yellow, orange, and reflected on the water, it made the water glow.

The water looked so nice that we decided to put our feet in it. When she took her shoe off, I stared at her, it was slow motion.  I knew I had made a good choice.

She told me she felt safe and wonderful with me and to never let her go. I felt great, I told her the same thing and that I was going to be with her a long time.  It felt like we had already been together for a long time and we had a long road ahead of us.

Still, I knew it was just going to end sooner or later.
