INTRODUCTION...
As I fell into the world of dreams, I saw a woman, more beautiful than the flowers in the morning of summer. I saw her eyes beautiful as the moon in the night. I can smell her sweet perfume. Confuse about what I saw, I extended my arms and touch her as if making sure if she's real or not. She smiled at me yet she never spoke a word. I wanted to hold her. She is so near yet so far for me to reach.
Then, I woke up. It was a dream. A beautiful dream in which I wish would never end. I took a ballpen and a paper to draw her face as I remember her but my mind was clouded by the noisy sound of the cars outside, the chirping of the birds on those bushy trees. And so, I just wrote a story for her. A story from my heart where she live amidst the memories of the past...
CHAPTER 1: LOVE should be shown without Pretending...
In this world of uncertainties, we somehow ask questions of what ifs'. They said "Love conquers all", but what if that love is forbidden, can it conquer everything? Can love be enough to answer the doubt I have?
I met you in times when everything falls at exact moment. I was happy with my life back then. Enjoying everything life has to offer. I never doubted the love and plan for my future. I did everything to let the world knows what I will become someday. And yet, here you are trying to bend apart the feelings I have for the profession I hope I could achieve someday, unconsciously.
Forbidden love. Sinful it may sound yet gives angelic feelings.
I told you one time how my feelings grew for you, yet I know that I cannot and should not be with you for there will be consequences of everything.
I drank all those regrets all the way, and the more I wanted to forget you the more I wanted you near. I can't fight these feelings I have for you but fighting against it would mean peace of the present.
Isn't ironic that the more I fight the more I have peace.
But then, craziness starts when one day, in my vast and wild imagination, I asked you... "Can you do me a favor?", "What is it?" you asked.
I know it's crazy but I have to hold all the courage I have. "Can we meet later tonight?" I know you have doubts in your mind. Deep inside me is fear for what will be your answer. A feeling of excitement yet a feeling of betrayal for the one I am chained of.
"I just want to be with you, and maybe spend the night with you". That was my reason. I don't know if this is right but emotions keeps on overtaking the reasons I have in mind.
As time passes by, realizations keep on crashing on my mind. I know it's not right but all was said and time was set. She already agreed and give her yes to my request. Tomorrow was her birthday by the way, and she should be together with her family and not with me.
We are nothing, we don't have label and most especially we were just friends.
At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, I reminded her about the agreement that we had, she smiled at me as if teasing me that she will not be there, but I know she's a woman of her words. She will come, I know it very well.
As evening draws to a close, heartbeat keeps rising. I know I should not be nervous but what can I say, she's the woman I think fell in love with. World will be in rage if they will know, but I will do it against all odds.
I already plan everything ahead of time, the restaurant that I will be taking her, the dinner, the romantic venue, all was planned.
It was around past 7 when I rode my car and fetched her in her house.
