"So this is it huh, our last sunset?"
Advik asked Ruksana as they both saw the dark horizon and rapid waves coming at them.
"Will you say someth..."
"Shush", she replied, "listen"
He looked around, panicked, there was no one. All Advik could hear was the sound of the waves.
"What?" He asked.
"Isn't it beautiful?" Ruksana asked him without even looking at him
"... It was beautiful yesterday and a day before that... It's all dark now"
They shared a moment of silence, Ruksana closed her eyes, trying to feel the cool in the air as she sighed.
"I am gonna miss you" he said.
Ruksana didn't reply.
"Will... You...?" He asked ag*in trying to make eye contact with her.
After another long moment of silence, Advik gave up.
He looked around as Ruksana sat there like a statue.
"I think you should head back, it's getting late now"
Advik tries to get up but is immediately pulled back down.
"Why can't you just shut up for a moment?" She exclaimed
"What?" Advik was confused
"Just sit here and for God's sake don't say anything"
Still confused, he did what he was asked to do. But he was looking around frantically.
Ruksana looked at him and suddenly he calmed down.
They kept looking into each other's eyes, absolute silence, even the roar of the waves faded after a while, the city skyline lit up and the wind became cooler and cooler as the time passed.
Ruksana smiled, "now do you get it?"
Advik smiled back, "It is beautiful..."
And they both leaned in at the same time, locking their lips for what seemed like an eternity, none of them wanted to stop, knowing that it was the last time they will be seeing each other in the city of dreams and since they knew that this dream was about to fade away from their lives forever, both Ruksana and Advik wanted to live it to the fullest.
