Fiction: Far away heart

Yei and Dan were in that airport enjoying their last moments together. The night covered the city with its icy blanket, but the warmth of the lovers was stronger. Their embraces filled the spirit with candor and their kisses seemed like uncontainable waterfalls.

The minutes were running out, giving way to the fateful zero hour, which would tear from Dan's soul his only love, his soul mate with whom he had shared a magical week of love and passion, never in his life had he felt so full of life as in those days. Yei had awakened him to a new way of loving.

As the hands of the clock made their endless run, marking the end of a happy moment, the two embracing lovers recalled the moments that had brought them to that point. It all started with a chat conversation and then turned into a burning ember of love around the couple.

Distance was their enemy, but they kept their love alive, with every detail and word. Finally, she dared to fly to where her lover was waiting for her, the long trip was not inconvenient for Yei to be with her great love. The first meeting took place on a December Monday afternoon when the sun rose majestically over the city.

"Love, I'm already at the airport, you can come pick me up." Yei's voice cut off for small moments, trying to catch her breath and courage.

"Love, love, wait for me, I'm coming, I'm leaving like lightning," Dan was telling her, trying to contain the excitement and anxiety that awaited him at that unforgettable moment.

Dan was running to the airport to meet his great love for the first time in a physical way. The steps became clumsy and the distance seemed to be greater with each step. Some red flowers, somewhat wilted by the tremendous heat, were the improvisation of the moment to welcome the owner of his long nights of textual conversation.

Now the screen would not be an impediment to touch the woman who made him feel so alive and happy. After a few minutes, Dan reached the door, took a big breath of air, and felt the excitement take over his entire nervous system.

He reached the waiting room and his eyes darted from side to side, trying to focus on the desired one. For a moment the butterflies that fluttered in his stomach, made him fear for the fate of his beloved, and then his cell phone vibrated intensely as his heart, he answered clumsily taking the telephone device. "Yei, love. Where are you? I can't look at you among so many people."

A mischievous laugh could be heard behind the cell phone. "Love, I'm on the second floor, I'm looking at you, turn to your right." Yei raised his hand and the corner of his lips was showing a smitten smile.

Dan was watching his great love for the first time and was hurrying towards his maiden. He climbed the steps decorated with beautiful colorful tiles and meaningless, but beautiful geometric patterns. In an effort not to fall, he climbed up the steps one by one until he reached his beloved.

As Dan conquered the peak he rested his dark brown eyes on Yei's silhouette. He couldn't believe it, he could finally physically see his beautiful lover. She lay seated on a somewhat worn wooden bench, her red dress matched the blush on her cheeks, a beautiful black leather jacket covered a daring cleavage and veiled stockings hugged her beautiful, shapely legs.

The image of Yei left Dan speechless, who in a vain effort was trying to untangle his tongue to utter a few words. Yei smiled and covered herself with a beautiful white fan with black flower patterns. In an instant, she sketched some words. "Hello, love, what took you so long? Hehe."

After coming out of the emotional shock a big smile came out of Dan's face and he managed to answer, "Love, finally together, many nights I dreamed of this moment." As Dan finished the sentence he stretched out his hand inviting Yei to get up.

In that instant the two lovers melted into a kiss, the kiss they had been waiting for forever. Now they were soul mates forever.

After that beautiful memory that marked Yei and Dan's life, the call of the loudspeaker brought the lovers out of their happiness, giving way to nostalgia and sadness. Dan kept hugging Yei with all his strength, trying to imprison her in his heart, but it was impossible to stop the parting, their hearts would have to separate again.

Dan's glazed eyes gave way to uncontainable tears, each one of them was a memory that escaped in time. The lovers fused and did not want to part, but it had to be done, she had her life in another city, and only a few words came out between wails of sadness. "I promise to come back and take you with me to live in our beautiful little white house, at the foot of a great mountain."

The voice of the speaker announced with an anxious tone the early departure of the flight. The time had come and the lovers between tears, kisses, and promises separated once again, she was lost in that white metal door and he was left shattered with a piece of a lost soul.

I love you with a heart Yei wrote in the plane window condensed by the cold, the photo of the message was sent by Yei to the shattered Dan. Then the plane was lost in the darkness of the sky, never to return.

Dan was left missing that heart that one day changed his life, taught him to love, and showed him that you can be happy despite everything. He would have liked to give a hug and an eternal kiss to the one who one day departed in the darkness of that cold December and who left beautiful memories in his soul with a melancholy that he will carry with him for the rest of his life.
