Always You

"Wait Ika!" Lucas shouted that made her stop running.

"How do you know my name?" She asked.

"It's me Lucas, your best friend and remember your first love who promised you that he'll marry you? Sadly, you forgot about me." He smiled sadly even his eyes say how much he was hurt. She suddenly realized how odd it feels to be with him like This. Then she thought how much she misses this guy. And was even more surprised to realize that Lucas is the one she truly loves! But she just got to ask. "Lucas how did you know it's me, Ika, with this face! It's been what? 18 years since we last saw each other."

But to her surprise, he smiled. You can see the warmth and how genuine his smile is. "Even though your face looks like that now I still and always will know that it's you. My heart will always recognize you. I just know it's you and also I knew you have lost your memory. I am here. willing to help you remember everything and let me love you endlessly." Ika was crying like a baby while smiling.

She said, " Thank you for accepting who am I, for waiting for me. But are you sure you're ready for this? That you'll stay by my side and love me? Lucas, I'm an ug-" Lucas cut her off even before she finishes what she was saying.

"Of course. You are still beautiful in my sight, love. Your scars are your battle scars, it just shows how brave you are. Even though I know it's hard for you. Even though I know it pains you every time you see yourself in the mirror. But that makes me love you even more. Your vulnerability. How you try to fight it, how you keep yourself standing despite and in spite of all the hurtful things that the world has thrown at you. Give me the chance to be here for you this time. Let's start again okay? I love you Ika."
