As far as I can remember, the sea scared me that day. At that time, I was feeling deep darkness all around. I felt like the endless expanse of water was ready to consume me. I may never see the earth again because I felt like a sea monster was grabbing my legs and dragging me down.
I might as well get tired of rocks and drown at some point. I climbed down the white wooden stairs from my porch to the house. The surfboard was still under my hand. The sun was then throwing heat on my pale face. Repeatedly, the waves rushed to the shore, and the cold wind was blowing past me at that time. That time might have been peaceful for me if I had not been so nervous.
I heard a scream from under the water as if someone was begging for help. I tried hard to get my feet in front of me, but I froze in fear. After a while, that voice was lost. Then I realized how much time had passed, but I was still stuck that day. No, I tried to start all over again.
My reaction reminded me that I still haven't gotten out of the dark days. Already the sun had set, casting a shadow over the beach. I told myself a wave was coming toward me, which was the biggest ever. As soon as it hit me, I broke and turned to sand. My excitement could not keep me calm.
The broad smile on my face was lost. I came here again today on this day of the year. This is where I lost my sweetheart. It was the happiest day of our lives. Five long years later, we had children. After visiting many doctors, my love Toma finally got pregnant. She loved the sea.
When she heard this news, she wanted to share it with the sea. We weren't late, packing our bags from the hospital and getting ready for the night. The next day, the two of us stood in front of the sea together. The sea breeze made us even drunker. She waited a long time for this day, her eyes filled with joy. I kept telling her, darling, don't go too deep.
She laughed and told me I could swim. I didn't want to tarnish that happy moment. She spent time in the sea at her will. Suddenly a wave hid her, I was waiting for her to come up, but she never came back. The happiest day of my life turned out to be the saddest day. I lost my sweetheart. I always wonder why I left her alone.
