Hero
I walked into the cemetery with a bouquet of flowers. I remembered the details as if it were a few days nakaraan even though it had been a year.
My ex boyfriend had been driving to tedeschis to get some sandwiches before picking me up to go to the park for a picnic. A driver driving an SUV had been drinking, swerved off the side of the road and hit him. He was rescued sa pamamagitan ng paramedics only to arrive at the hospital and be announced officially dead. I remembered the tearful phone call from Jill who was our friend. I remembered the wake, the funeral and the burial. But most importantly I remember promising myself never to pag-ibig again.
I laid the bulaklak on his grave. Today would have been our 2 taon anniversary. I Nawawala it right there and began bawling my eyes out. Suddenly I felt arms balutin around me from behind and someone's chin on my shoulder. This person smelled of Marlboro lights and aftershave which smelled kinda nice.
I stopped crying and turned around expecting it to be a crazy person. My eyes widened at who it was. In the flesh it was me and my boyfriends idol, David Bowie. He was wearing a white button up shirt, green khakis and black shoes. His hair hung in his eyes but I could see his mismatched eyes looking at me with sympathy, sadness and.....love?
"Y/N, I'm so sorry...."
"wait how do you know my name?"
"I was there I was the man in the dark suit with sunglasses at the funeral,"
I thought for a minute.
"that was you?"
"yes I knew your boyfriends father. He was a roadie for the serious moonlight tour before he retired. He's told me about him/her and I'm very sorry he passed away,"
"how'd you know I was with him?"
" I could guess," David gave me a sad smile.
"thank you for being there."
"no problem Y/N," and reached out to stroke my cheek.
A weird sensation started. My puso was fluttering, my stomach felt like it was full of mga paru-paro and I didn't want him to stop.
I leaned into his touch a few minutos before he pulled away.
"Y/N, sumali me for lunch, love?" asked David Bowie looking like he was desperately waiting for me to say yes.
"yeah I would, thank you," I sinabi smiling a bit madami now.
we made our way out of the cemetery, his arm around me giving me the will power to move.
We went into a cafe like place that was not too fancy but not too cheap looking. I had ordered a ham and Swiss sanwits while David ordered an antipasto salad. We talked about our interests, our lives, his music....everything. I was getting madami and madami intrigued sa pamamagitan ng this attractive handsome rockstar. He was aging but still very handsome and age is only a number. After we ate, I started to say thank you and head tahanan but David stopped me.
"wait Y/N do you want my number so maybe we can....talk?" He asked looking shy.
"I'd pag-ibig that, thank you very much," I sinabi smiling I made a new contact and typed his number into my iPhone and he did the same with my number.
"See you around," I sinabi blushing.
"see you around y/n love," sinabi David blushing a bit too.
I went back tahanan feeling a little weightless but a little guilty that I was starting to fall in pag-ibig with David Bowie.
the susunod araw david and me were walking in the park and just chatting about stuff in general.
"Ever since my boyfriend died I stopped believing in a life after death. Since there's no scientific proof that god and satan exist why should we believe what a book not even written in Jesus' time says. If there were an afterlife the dead would have come back to us to visit. They would have told what it's like to die,"
"I agree y/n, I believe in the same idea,"
David looked at me as if I were the only person at the park.
"what?" I started to feel the fluttering in my chest again.
"nothing love, you're just so beautiful, so young and despite you being so young I feel as if we were made for each other," whispered David.
"I feel the same way too, David," I whispered back.
David leaned in and kissed me passionately. I had promised never to pag-ibig again but that promise became broken as I let his tongue enter my mouth. I kissed back and he held me closer to him and put his arms around my waist.
We broke the halik panting slightly.
"I pag-ibig you, y/n. Please be mine forever," sinabi David's voice filled with pag-ibig and desire.
"I pag-ibig you too David," I sinabi feeling the heavy weight that had formed when my ex boyfriend died fall to the ground as I sinabi those words.
David pulled me into a loving embrace. He was the pag-ibig of my life now and most importantly my hero.
