Part VI: Sweet memories...

I'm a tad late, and I'm not really bringing anything new to the table, but fuck it! :D
------------------------------------------

Recap: I'm fucking dying.

Her blue, almond-shaped eyes morphed into an abyss of memories and thoughts. Now I reckon that the old life-flashing-before-ones-eyes cliché is actually true. I'm going in deeper and deeper, and childhood memories are coming back to me.

I'm 8 years old, and it's quite sunny and warm, even hot, here in Spain. We're on a holiday, my parents and I. My mom and dad are busy doing some cultural stuff at some castle, it's probably boring. For my agegroup, anyways. I decided to stay at the caravan, and my parents even allowed it! The 'next-door' caravan is inhabited by another dutch family, with whom my parents are on the epic castle-trip with. Except for their daughter though, who shared my opinion and decided to stay at the 'camp' as well. As I sit around, playing around with my gameboy, in the corner of my eye I can see her walking towards me. She's also 8, and she makes me feel something I haven't experience before... As I see her skipping towards me, I'm starting to feel anxious. I decide to continue playing, but at one point she's standing behind me. "POKEMON!" she yells frantically, naming the game that I'm playing, and I understand that I can't ignore her anymore. I try and look over my shoulder, and she takes advantage of the situation. She quickly kisses me on the lips, leaving me perplexed, albeit happy.

She's laughing merrily, and skips back to her own caravan. Her long, blonde hair is bouncing with every step, and before entering her 'home' she looks back over to me, smiling like only kids can, and her perfectly sparkling blue eyes make me feel happy inside.

The next day though, the caravan next to ours was gone. I immediately ran to my parents, screaming "WHERE IS SHE?". They simply answered that her parents had left, their vacation was over.

I never saw her again, my first love dissapeared forever...

Now the beautiful woman next to me leans over to me, and her blonde hair brushes my nose, slightly tickling me. She brings her face close to my right ear and whispers...

"Pokemon..."
