It was him, it would always be him, in the past or now, or maybe in her dark and uncertain future…
Zuri didn't know what made her feel this way, but she wanted him and that was what she went for…
She stood up immediately and looked around her. She took everything in. The world had turned into something that she didn't recognize at all. She saw how the fire had burned everything in its wake and the crack on the ground, which had now swallowed every little thing under the gloomy sky.
This world had been ruined beyond recognition, but in the distance, she could see someone that she knew, the only man that she wanted to be close to, though it was hard for her and she realized she didn't want to be touched by him.
Zuri wanted to laugh. Was this the feeling that a moth would have when it flew closer to the light? That small creature knew the heat would kill it, yet it couldn't resist it.
