Her Valentines Day Bo
She has been dreaming of the day when her Bo will come home and stay, her Bo has been out at sea since the “thirteen century”, he fought on the pirate’s boat and gorge out the enemy's throat, he captured a hundred and fifty ships and throw the enemies off the cliff, many men feared him but the heavens adore him, "will you find my Bo for me so that we can start our family?" She said as she stares through the window and watches the birds fly from tree to tree.
They have been living apart for seven years and have not seen each other for more than five years, they talk on the phone when the weather is fine and he woo her with dialogue that are made up wine, every time he is in a drunken state he tumbles towards his gate and leans over the rail and lament over his distant girl.
The great big ocean is keeping them apart, the great big ocean is blocking his heart; he has made several attempts to swim it out, but mercy drains the water from his throat.
He tries to swim a million miles to get to her, but the sharks at sea had planned it out, they could smell the blood from afar and brought their "aunts and uncle "to dine but he was rescued right on time. His love has gone mad, and it really made him feel sad.
She hates to see him looking so sad his obsession makes him look mad. His passion is going through the roof, and she is afraid of what he could do. All he wants is to be with her, but the ocean stood firm between his girl and his dream.
Love can touch you in any place, love appears in different faces, it can give you a smiling face and it can make you destroy the human race, the hardcore expressions is bursting his vein, he clenches his fist and held on to the rail and scream and the big ship came to a standstill.
His girl stood on the balcony and reminisce her Bo’s career journey, the last time they were together, they were on the beach saying goodbye as he embarked on that long journey, the life of a navy is bitter sweet you are stationed in the middle of nowhere throughout the year he carries a sentiment that is so deep and she kept looking for her Bo to complete this segment of the show.
“Will you call my Bo for me so that we can complete our destiny?” She whispers in a faint voice, “will you call my Bo so that we can complete this willful sacrifice”, she said as tear streamed from her eyes, what should I do if he should die, would I revenge the all-seeing sky? She said as she speaks her thoughts aloud. My Bo has made me feel proud, “she utters.”
The nights get darker and all she could see from her window was the moon and the stars gliding next to each other and sun resting in the west keeping her feet warm.
She thought she heard a knocking and walked towards the window, but it was the hands of the old clock that has just struck midnight, and before she could turn around, he crept up from behind and held her mouth, “don’t scream,” he said, “it's me, will you be my valentine?” He said, they stare at each other for a while and kept smiling and walk slowly hand in hands towards the window and looked at the stars and the moon gliding in the sky and she said, "will you be my valentines?" And they embraced each other.
