Top 100, Worlds Apart by Friendly Yen # 60

Story by Anna

My idea of Paradise

The first time on the other side of the world. Australia. 
A new home.
Wooden floors, fly screens in front of the windows and clammy sheets.

The feeling of a gentle dread inside of me.

Just around the corner where I later met the love of my life. 

The most painful time of my life. And the most beautiful.

We had dinner together. I made vegetable bake. 

And Bratapfel for desert. 

The house was empty beside of us two sitting on the floor. 

He played this song to me.

His song.

I was heartbroken before. But it still hurt. It always hurts. 

How often can you break

a heart? Love and pain.

They perform together.

So well. The best time of my life.
