This story, that I'm about to tell you, is a true story, one
that has never took place, not in this reality, and not in
any other plain of existence, but maybe somewhere else.
It all began, a few days before a long time ago. Back then
life seemed easier, I didn't know as many people, and I
didn't have much on my mind. There was nothing much but
school and play. But one day something happened, something
that would shake the lives of all of those I knew, all of
them. I would never be affected by it, and I will never
realize it until years after, so much later, that I am not
supposed to know yet, and in a short while, I won't. so this
is why I'm writing this, so that you'll know that which I
don't know, and so that you'll know why I mustn't ever find
out, as long as I am here.

So there I was, walking back home from some place of no
importance, when all of a sudden.
Wait, this isn't how it went, let me try again.

So there I was, climbing the fence out of school, just to go
to a store and buy some lunch, as I always did. But what I
didn't know is that there will be something on my way, which
will distract me.
Anyway, so there I was, walking to the store, when all of a
sudden I saw a picture lying on the ground, it was blue, and
the sun shined on it in just the right angle that it would
hit my eye. And as it did, I walked to it, I looked at it
for just a moment, and then I picked it up.
What happened next would change my view of the world
forever, but don't concern yourself with it, it isn't what
this story is about.
So there I was, picking that picture. I looked at it, it was
the most elegant... thing I have ever seen, I couldn't tell
what it was, but it was so fantastic, it was in just the
right colors, just the right curves, just the right edges,
it was just right.
I just stood there for a few minutes, and for those few
minutes, nothing else in the world existed. I just stood
there, paralyzed, until the school bell rang and I snapped
back into reality.
I didn't get my lunch yet, and I wouldn't get back to class
in time anyway, so what will I do next? It's obvious enough,
to me at least.
I went to the store, got myself some lunch, and then started
walking in the direction of the school.
I've got to the school, and continued to walk, this wasn't
where I was heading to. I've walked for 20 more minutes,
staring at that picture all the time. Then I've got to some
wall, which was around 5 meters high.
Now, I just stood there, looking up, "what the hell is this
kid doing looking out at that wall that blocks the entrance
to whatever insignificant structure that may lay behind?",
I'm sure that's' what people thought as they saw me standing
there. Then I walked right to a tree that was right to the
left of me. I then climbed it, I already knew exactly where
to put my legs and arms, so it didn't take too long.
Now I was at the top of the wall, seeing everything in the
near vicinity. I jumped down, probably looked like suicide
to people on the other side, but they didn't know what I
knew, and what I knew, was that behind that wall, was a
mattress. Of course I landed on it, and of course nothing
happened to me. I already knew it, I did it tens of time
before.
What was behind that wall was a garden, which looked like it
was neglected for years, which it probably was. There were
fruit carrying trees that had nothing but green fruits on
them at this time of the year.
This is probably the place I loved the most in the world at
that time, and no one knew about it but me, not a soul.

Why don't I love it now? That's a long story, and like any
bad one, it involved a girl, so I won't get into that right
now, besides, it didn't happen yet anyway, I will only meet
her for the first time next week(from the current time of
course, the flashback is completely separated from the
present which I currently see the world from).

So there I was, in the garden, I walked to a bench that was
there, which I had put a few flat pillows on, and I lay down
on it, under the shadow of a tree. Then I look out that
picture, and I looked at it, and I was there, as if I was
frozen, for how long I don't know, but it must have been at
least an hour. I just gazed at it, and nothing more.
It was the most beautiful thing I ever saw, and ever will,
until next week.

But anyway, what took me out of that moment separated from
time? Not my own mind, that's for sure.
It had began raining, of course, what else could spoil
something as magnificent as this? So naturally I put that
picture in my bag, wouldn't you?
I have already set a ladder to help myself out at any given
moment.
And so I did.

You must be wondering where this is going, but don't worry,
this is where this is getting real interesting, and if you
have any remote interest in science fiction, you're going to
love this, or maybe you're not.
Back to the story now.

So there I was, outside the garden, on the floor, and passed
out. Why passed out? Because I fell, wouldn't that make
sense?
Because of the rain, my hand slipped from the wall as I was
going to make my way off it and into the tree from which I
would climb down. But I still had a firm hold on the tree
with my other hand. So why did I fall? Simply due to
reflex.
The hand that slipped had my bag on it, and once it slipped,
the beg fell, lunching a deadly-fast instinct to catch it, a
thing which completely undid my balance and caused me to
lose my grab on the branch I was holding onto.

Now this is where it's getting interesting.

So there I was, waking up, when I see something blue, and
shining. It was the same thing I saw in the picture, but the
only difference, was that it was about one centimeter tall.
Now, I didn't recognize it at first and not at second
either. Actually, I just grabbed my bag and ran. And it
stayed there, floating at mid air.

About two days later, when I was walking to school, I saw it
again, I looked at it, and I realized what it was. I reached
to touch it, and as I did, I collapsed.

The next thing I knew, I was at the hospital, with no memory
of the past week, which was really bad, because I've studied
very hard for a history exam in that week, a thing that got
me very depressed, for about half an hour.
I've never saw that picture or the blue floating thing ever
again, until today.
In fact, it's right here before me. I will still remember
this, and so many other things, things that you could never
imagine, so many secrets and so many facts.
But I will only remember it for 5 minutes, so if you'll
excuse me, I have to save the place I love the most, before
I forget I must do so, by insulting a person which I know I
will fall in love with. And I will do so in the most intense
way I could, something that I doubt will help, but I still
must try.

Good bye.
