Mi Sueño

 

... ... ...

 

“As I open my eyes, blurred lights shallow into my sight that blinds me at first. But as soon as I cope on it, my visions start to light up and soon I see clearly the whole place...”

... ... ...

I’ve been living into the darkness since I lost something so important part of my life. And ever since then, I couldn’t recognize what I truly feel right at that moment that I couldn’t see the places I’m going through. I see nothing but darkness and fear as what I felt when I down her confession back then.

*eyes closes* *breathes deeply*

Now I remember the past...

...

It’s been weeks since she confessed to me and since then I never intend showing up to her even though I want it too. So, I choose to stay at home after school and didn’t go out of the woods where the road that she’s always walking at is only a few far from there. But I never failed looking at my window in the hopes that I could see her from there though it is too impossible seeing her there.

*coughs*

I turned around and see who’s at my room. “Dad?”

“What are you doing?” it asked so calm and cool that is the reason why I couldn’t hide what I truly feels.

“I think... I already found the right girl that would make my heart race like a crazy.” I said and as look at my father his face doesn’t change.

“Then what now?” it asked either that I couldn’t understand.

“What what, Dad?” I asked clueless.

*laughs* *walks closer*

“My son, what I told you before?”

“That if I could find the right woman then the arrange marriage would be–––” *silent* *thinking deeply* “Dad!” I shouted out loud when I realize what was his talking about.

He just laughs and went on my side. “My son, I won’t stop you if you already found the right girl. But, just make sure that you will love and respect her, alright?”

I smiles at him. “Of course, Dad! I won’t just promise it but I will do it...” *sighs heavily* “But I need to talk to Sylvia.”

My Dad smiles at me. “Of course, my son! She has to know.”

...

As I look at her face I never knew that I would only love her as a friend. For that reason, I never want to hurt her but I already met the girl that I love. So, I don’t want to hurt her but still I need to tell her the truth because keeping it would hurt her much.

“Hi!” she greeted with a sweet smile.

*sighs secretly* If only I learned to love her more than just a friend... maybe... just maybe we won’t end like this.

“Hi!” I greeted back and sat down at the chair right next to her.

“So, what was it that you’ve wanted to talk about?” she simply asked and still looks gorgeous and beautiful far from what I saw in Jade. The reason why I fall for her it is because she would never ever going to pretend into someone that she need to show to anyone like what Sylvia always do since she came from a well known family.

Anyway, that is not what I’m here for. *exhale* “I’m... I’m sorry.” I first said that she puzzle out. “I already fall in love for real...” I shyly said.

“Uhm, alright.” It answered so simply and calmly that I surprised of.

“What, are you not mad?” as I knew that you really like since we were a child and you already told me that it is me that you’ve really wanted to marry. And for that I am so sorry, I truly am sorry. *keeps talking to himself as he stares at her*

“Well,” it smiles. “I knew from the very start that you would love me the same way I love you. So, the arrange marriage is already broken.” She simply said that I couldn’t answer right so I look away.

Then I heard her laugh that made me back looking at her.

“No worries! If you were thinking that I am hurt! Oh, well! I’m hurt but eventually it would pass soon. And besides, it was me who made myself to be hurt so there is nothing to worry about, Kyle!”

“But–––”

“No more buts, Kyle!” she cuts me off. “Just do me a favour.” She ended that made me curious.

“What was it?”

She smiles nicely. “Just don’t make her cry.” She seriously said that I couldn’t answer straight since I already made her cry when I rejected her confession. But I have my reasons back then and now that I already cleared myself. I’ll put all my courage to finally faces her and this time I’ll do it right straight at her house where her parents would be there to witness my whole heartedly confession for her.

...

I really don’t know what to do back then but I still managed to face her parents and for the first time of my life! I kneel in front of the girl that I truly like and love. But I am not ashamed of it but I am so proud of it and I will cherish it all through my life!
