There was a couple walking on a highway called Life. The first miles of their love journey were full of happiness. They were enjoying the trip ‘cause it looked safe. Although there were narrow paths named Differences, they successfully went through them. They also passed beyond the Dark Tunnel of the Past and prevailed to get out. The love journey was almost perfect until they reached the middle part of the highway which was Route Trial. It was the hardest part of their voyage. They stumbled upon storm of hardships. They pushed through Tollgates of Problems. And they crossed on a 100 kilometer Anger Bridge. The struggles they experienced from those ways made them weak and weary. They started to quarrel. They were not looking on the highway anymore that they missed the Understanding Station. Exhausted, they faced a stop sign. Straight ahead were left and right direction. The girl decided to take the left turn where she had read a sign, Better Road. Sad, the boy took a right turn going to Melancholy Road.
The girl was wondering around. She didn’t know that she was deceived by the sign. That path was no better but full of regret and frustration. She discovered it but she was too late. She decided to go back but she was already lost. That road was cruel. She was alone. She felt sorry of leaving her partner behind. If only she could bring back time, she would make things right. She gathered her remaining strength and started to find the boy; her true love. She ran fast as she could. As she was running, she saw a billboard saying, “Love Prevails”. She had a right turn to Hope Street up to Faith Corner. She believed that if she followed that direction she would find the boy again. Out of the sudden, she saw someone on the horizon. She waved her hand; tears falling from her eyes.
The boy was so wasted while walking on the Melancholy Road. That place was so gloomy. He looked for alight but all he could see was darkness. The rain fell. He was alone. But he must go on, he continued walking; walking without direction. He was going nowhere until he noticed someone on the horizon. Someone was waving her hands to him. On his side, there was a road sign saying, “Forgiveness, straight ahead”. Tears fell from his eyes as he stepped forward.” I will not lose you again”, he thought.
