Unlocking The Vault

About 11 years ago, there was a kid named Adam. He lived in a suburban. It was not exactly a suburban, but close. He was in love with a girl that he called his Eve. You might wonder what a 12-years-old boy and 8-years-old girl know about love. Oh but they did, as they were ardently in love. They were playmates and living in a community where everyone knew everyone, they practically spent their most of their times together. Adam lived less than a mile from his Eve and he visited her every noon. They even walked to school together, along with their friends. Adam called his Eve pet names, but Apple was evidently his favorite because he called her that very often. This was ironic, his name was Adam, he called her Eve and apple was the reason why Adam was kicked out of heaven. Eve asked him this once, and he said,

“Adam was far from stupid; it was his affection to Eve that he allowed himself to succumb to her persuasion to consume that apple. He knew very well of the consequences, but he couldn’t bear the thoughts of him being the root of Eve’s sadness. Adam did not blame Eve for his punishment, and the apple was a proof of how he felt towards Eve. He did not have to actually be in heaven to feel like heaven. Being with Eve was sufficed to let him feel that. See, I have never loved this way before, and should I ever love anyone in the future, it will not be as intense as the way I do with you. I have been in my haven for 12 years and it was you, my Apple, my Eve, who tempted me out of it. For that, I thank you and forever will be grateful to you for showing me love. Besides, you’re chubby. Your cheeks always glowed red when I talk to you like this. See?”

Adam poked her cheeks playfully. Don’t mind where Adam learned to speak like that. He just knew the words and how to speak around Eve. He was a whiz kid, he always thinks ahead of his age. It was after all his intelligence that enticed Eve to him. Those were the good times. They did not want to be apart from each other. Other kids at their age would never understand what lies waiting in front of them, what the world has for them. Unlike them, Adam and his Eve already vowed to each other that whatever happens, they will get through it together.

Alas, what is life without trouble? A year later, Eve’s parents decided to move out from the community where they lived. Eve brought the painful news to Adam, and said that they only have one year left. It distraught Adam terribly but he never showed it to Eve. He struggled to be strong for her for the reason that Eve was sad too. Sad was tremendously an understatement, she was distressed. Her low-spirited state had clouded her judgment. She thought Adam did not care about her leaving. Really, what could Adam do, take her away? Adam was powerless. Regrettably, Eve did not talk about this with Adam, she simply avoided him for she assumed Adam no longer love her.

Meanwhile, Odyne saw this as an opportunity to be close to Adam. She had always loved Adam but Adam did not return the sentiment as he saw her merely as best friend. Odyne talked to Adam and constantly be at his side to “console” him. The dismayed Adam had failed to contemplate Odyne’s plots. Eve saw this proximity and again, assumed that Adam had chosen Odyne.

Each day, Adam became familiar with Odyne’s closeness, but his Apple never left his mind. Her absence created a deep hole in his heart. He craved to walk home with her as she longed to talk to him. Odyne knew his ache as she saw the way he looked at Eve but she just won’t give up. She kept him to her whenever Adam told her his plan to talk to Eve. Oh no, Odyne could not let him do that. She might lose him. Odyne and Adam were Eve’s seniors and both were the school’s best students. In Odyne’s eyes, Eve was not fit for Adam. Adam deserved the best, and the person was she, Odyne. She was the best plotter, she came up with different excuses to make Adam and his Eve away from each other, be it by giving tasks to Eve or by making redundant meetings to keep Adam after hours.

At the very last day, Eve left Adam a farewell letter and asked her friend, their friend to give him. She left without acknowledging them where she would be residing. No address, no information, nothing. She wished to perish from his life, as he cut her deeply.
