The Girl Unknown

CHAPTER 5

"Love is a wonderfully terrible thing."

Yes, Love is the most wonderful feeling in this world. It's so weird when the person you've fallen for is close to you and you just feel so happy.

Soon when your leaving and you look back to get a last glimpse of the person, the feelings....cannot be expressed.

"Lily, Where are you running away?" Quentin came sprinting to me, as I was leaving the college campus.

"No not running away.. just going home." I said.

"Come lets go together anyways we're going to the same place."He said demanding.

"What about your friends?" I asked him, since he was with them a moment ago.

"They aren't as important as you are. How can I let you go all alone like that. It's not safe." He said with concern on his face.

He started walking with me till his friends called out for him.

"Hey Q! Where you going?" Peter screamed from behind.

"At least say goodbye to them." i said.

"Okay." He said, walked a few steps and turned back to me.

I looked at him, surprised.

He came caught my hand and said, "But I'm not leaving alone." and saying that, he pulled me behind him.

Since I was just walking behind him, my hand in his hand, I was felt like I was lost.. in my emotions. I couldn't hear, speak or see anything. What was that feeling?

His friends said hi to me with an awkward face. Quentin told them that he couldn't join them, then looked at me and said, "I have better company and I'm going to be in a better place, where my happiness is."

I looked at him as his words hit me hard.

We walked out the gate, and got ourselves a taxi.

"Lily?"

"Yes?"

"Do you like to be alone?"

"No. Not really but sometimes."

"Can I take this loneliness away please? May I?"he said.

"No one ever did that!" I had tears.

"May I beautiful?" He asked.

I nodded with a smile with tears rolling down my cheeks.

He held me in his arms and said, "I promise you will never be alone again."

I just quietly sobbed.

When we reached, we got down and my face was flushed with tears.

"Don't Cry!" He said.

"I won't."

"Promise?"

"Promise"

"Okay, now smile,"

"Okay" I said with a smile.

"You drive me crazy, Your beautiful smile kills me."

I blushed. He Smiled.

"Bye." I said.

"Bye, Beautiful."

We walked away when I just turned around to see him go, and then I turned back with a smile on my face. When I felt like he had been watching me go, I glanced back and he turned back with a smile.

This was a really short meeting and only a few minutes we spent with each other, but someone had once said that,

"Time is very slow for those who wait,

Very fast for those who are scared,

Very long for those who lament,

Very short for those who celebrate

But for those who love.....

time is Eternal."
