Her hands on his shoulders while his hands on her waist as they danced together with the graceful music. It was dark, but the moonlight was there lighting them up.
The scenario was like one of the scenarios in the Cinderella story.
Cinderella was dancing with the Prince at the bridge in the middle of the night. But just like Cinderella’s story the clock rings and everything ended. But unlike the Cinderella Fairy Tale, their fairy tale ends because she's already awake. She was already in reality. The reality that made her remember everything painful, the reality that made her felt alone, the reality that made her feel unsafe, unloved. And the reality that keeps bringing her back to her wretched fate. Every time that she is awake all she did is to sit and cry on the four corners of her dull and lonely room. But started the day that she dreamed about the guy that danced with her in the middle of the night her day started to change.
She was now so desperate to sleep. She wanted to do nothing but to sleep. At least every time she slept all the pain were gone the heartbreak and the loneliness. The man in her dreams made her feel everything that she missed for the long time of her lonely and dull life, which started when her man left her with no justice. She loved him so much with all her heart, but he left her and until now she cannot accept the fact that he is gone. But what is important to her is that at least in an hour of the day she was still able to be with him even in her dreams.
She's already awake with the thought of her dream last night the dream world seems to be the whole world for her, she wanted to live there forever and not to wake up anymore. While thinking about those past events in her dreams a man appeared in front of her. He is tall and armored, his devilish smile still plastered on his face. His gun was still placed on his left pocket. Her heartbeat stopped, she wanted to shout for justice, but she can't. She was so desperate to give her man the justice that he deserved but how? She is frozen, she cannot speak, she was so afraid, and she looks so pale. “Do not ever try to speak or you would end up like him”. The armed guys whispered in her ear that makes her cry and cringed in horror.
The man left and the past events started to flashed again in front of her. She together with her man in the middle of the aisle reciting their wedding vows while giving the wedding ring to each other that moment was so memorable for her because it’s their wedding day. The wedding ceremony ends. They are in the middle of the hall her hands on his shoulders while his hands on her waist as they danced together with the graceful music. It was like the Cinderella fairy tale where she and her prince were dancing in the middle of the night wearing her most beautiful gown. But just like Cinderella’s fairy tale everything ended not with the ring of the clock, but with the sound of the gun.
The sound of the gun ended their fairy tale and put her into the suffering of losing her man and losing her life.
The sound of the gun that made her almost deaf.
And the shot of the gun that takes away her man in front of her eyes.
The sound of the gun that makes her mute and traumatized.
The sound that made her wear the same white gown every day.
And the sound that puts her in prison inside the dull and white room suffering alone.
