Prologue

*Why? Why did it have to end?

Instant thoughts came rushing in my head as soon as I opened my eyes and saw that I was back at the library of our university. I looked down and saw that I was holding the book that started it all.

Everything was just perfect.

Everything that happened, everything so perfectly crafted by the universe.

Now, I wouldn't even be able to lay my eyes on her. She painted colors onto my dull life ever since we met. But as she fades away in the picture, my life will slowly turn back to gray. I don't really want to believe that it's over. Now, I'm missing bits and pieces from the pages that she was in. Even if it all ended on a happy note, I think that there are still so many chapters that could have been. I can't help but feel my heart emptied out vastly without her.

To be honest, I wouldn't have imagined myself turning into someone beyond my expectations and being with someone who I think is totally out of my league. I never thought I would end up in such an extraordinary escapade in my entire existence. All thanks to my cranky biology teacher, Ms. Sanchez, who ousted me out of our classroom this one gloomy afternoon.

Well, first off, let me introduce myself. I am Finley Scott Davis, an eighteen-year-old student here at Silver Oak University. I am just an ordinary student, an ordinary human, who was somehow amusingly chosen by the universe for whatever reason to indulge in an out-of-this-world venture by just a flip of a book. I know it probably sounds crazy, but I wouldn't trade it for anything in this world. Because I have met the most beautiful and strong woman who has made my heart flutter a thousand times by just the sight and thought of her.

I am actually glad that we had a happy ending, but I just wished for it to really have no ending at all.

I got home, held a pen, and turned a blank page on one of my empty notebooks. Then I wrote about how I wish she'd stayed by my side and how we could start a whole new book with an endless story. I wrote all the things that I never got to say to her, and maybe when it's done, I will feel okay.

But I guess not.

What was supposed to be a happy ending for us turns out to be a dreadful one for me as it will leave me in the dark for the rest of my life. I hate this. I hate that I will never see her again.

I have been discerning for very long if everything that happened was real, and now that something assured me I wasn't dreaming comes the time it all ended like a dream. Now, I wish it was really just a very long dream. I'd prefer that rather than knowing it all actually happened and suddenly ended, leaving me in a dreadful nightmare I will ever have.
