where are we going? c’mon ill show you. he jumps in. you forgot your jacket. haha. two blocks away, 5 other bike riders were waiting for them to pass by. they sped past them, and the whole convoy began. their engines pounded the lonely streets of their sleepy town. they rode through the night, under a cloudless sky, in a road smashed by the waves of the pacific. the 10pm sea breeze is freezing his bones, but he didn’t mind it. he was in for the ride of his life. he spread his arms wide, faced the sea, looked up to sky, and screamed at the top of his lungs. he felt great, like god.
take a picture of us. she giggles. i think i look beautiful in these lights. i gladly complied, and pointed the lenses at the smiling faces of the persons i entrust my life with. and as i clicked away, images from the past came flashing in front of me. images of us. of wide-eyed smiles. of tight-fisted cries. of heartbreaks. and of everyday triumphs. i clicked away watching pages of our lives turn. we’re all here tonight. and we’re probably all that we’ve got for the rest of our lives.
what’s the matter? thought you’d like some crepes? uhh.. i changed my mind. i want beer this time. he hastily walks towards the parking lot and out to the street. she follows him, puzzled. huh? so what is it this time? he makes another senseless remark, and resumes their conversation on uma’s latest movie. they lazily followed them outside. hey look, apartments. let’s check it out. 5 minutes later, they forgot about the beer. that’s just the way it is with them. things change, almost instantly. one thing remains, their company.
