Wake Me Up With Amnesia

Hey, I’m Floren Willow, people usually call me Flo and this is a story that I can't forget. It all started at the end of Middle School, I met this boy called   Maximus Xander. Max has always been my best friend since middle school, he gives homework help, protects me, gives me the best advice, he was everything to me and I would probably be sitting on the couch eating whip cream, watching the lion king over and over again. He cheers me up whenever I remember my dad that got into a car accident and passed away 2 years ago. He was like a diamond shield for me, I loved him with all my heart and from there I changed my behavior whenever he’s around. It seems that I’m a rotten potato whenever he is not around, but whenever he is around I would be the most innocent and beautiful flower that grows in winter. We made so many memories in middle school, we went ding-dong ditching, toilet paper people’s house on Halloween, we had each other’s back. They were all beautiful memories, that I actually want to forget now. I had the biggest crush on Max, but I never know whether he likes me or not, oh and guess what I was sister-zoned! It is literally impossible getting out from that zone (well at least the internet said so) and I was so sad. I didn't give up there, I would find excuses so that I can see him if it's class time, oh yeah we are in different classes so I can't see him as much. I don't know why but I always get away and never get caught with my friends, though my friends realized how my action has changed ever since middle school. Whenever someone spills water on the floor, I would be the one who takes the mop from the restroom to see Max. I was that obsessed with Max just because of the strong bond between me and Max. Until the day came where he FINALLY asked me to be his girlfriend! It was the sweetest thing ever, he brought me to this place at Atlantic Boulevard, Los Angeles County. He gave me a bouquet of roses and he knows that roses are my favorite flowers. It was just a normal dinner until he asked me to be his girlfriend. “ I just want you to know that you are something that is so important to me and you're something that is so precious to me and believes me that I'm saying this with all my heart and honor. Floren Willow, will you be my girlfriend? “ those were the words that came out from his mouth and put me in tears. I said yes, well of course! I have been waiting all these time for him to ask that. We had a very smooth relationship, probably the smoothest relationship someone has ever have in the whole history no joke. Max is a literal boyfriend material, he always finds a way to cheer me up whenever I am having the worse days at school. We had an amazing relationship until the beginning of high school. I noticed something that is unusual from Max and he seemed so guilty and pressured by something. I asked, " Max, what is wrong with you? You have been acting weird lately” . “I'm okay" as he looks at me in the eyes. Of course, I didn't believe him, so I asked her younger sister Vee about Max. Vee told me that he was not able to breathe properly l last week. He was playing soccer and he collapsed because of how difficult it was for him to breathe. He went to the doctors, they found out that Max has a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. It felt like my heart stopped beating for a second after hearing that, I never thought that he would have a lung disease since he looked so healthy and fit. I was sad and confused, why wouldn't Max tell me? Why wasn't he honest with me? I spent so many times with him after hearing that, I was so afraid that one of those days were going to be his last, I was right. After our 4 year anniversary, he was rushed to the ER. I was so worried and I didn’t know what to do. Turns out that he was already gone when we’re still on our way. His last words were “ Sorry Flo, I can’t cheer you up for the rest of the days”. It is so hard to move on from everything, it has been 6 years since Max’s death, we’ve made so many memories. I want someone to wake me up with amnesia.
