Ambition

I can hear clearly their screams and cheering; complements of admiring my beautiful performance. So high, so high, I'm going to break the sky. Everything in my eyes looks like tiny flies. Oh my, oh my, no one can vie this amazing guy. Finally, I can't deny the thrill of these cries, coming from my cutie pies; cheering the spectacular Dai.

Suddenly these screams tuned to my main competitor and made me stop my skateboarding forcefully; he always takes my pretty fans. I held my board under my arm as I thought "These screaming noises... when I hear them I want to puke!!" Why do these girls love this four eyed womanizer?! He's got nothing special except his looks. I'm going to tie and fry that guy, and then throw him in the pigsty! Looks like all my training in gaining these skills to show off in front of them went a waste.

I wanted to break that skateboard, but a smooth voice stopped me "Excuse me..." I turned around and saw two beautiful wide green eyes looking at me; I've never seen such an adorable girl. My soul floated, my heart melted, my cheeks went red and my mind fled. Her body, her style, her hair, her smile, everything was perfect, except one thing that shivered my whole body... she was on a wheel chair.

I replied with a pitying smile "How can I help you?"

"Can you do that again?"

"What?"

"Can you perform for me, please?"

I gave her a smile and accepted her request. I put my board under my feet and started a new journey toward the sky. I went so high again, surfing on the wind, and diving in the air. Everything got upside down. I gave all I have for the first time. Finally, someone turned his interest on me so I wanted to entertain her. Suddenly I saw something sparkling from far; it was her tear. That shocked me; why would she cry? I though. I stopped and ran toward her with my board in my palm.

"What happened?"

She answered while wiping her tears "Nothing... your performing... is so amazing..."

"So amazing that would touch your heart and shed a tear?"

"It's not like that... I just... remembered my old self..."

I'm so stupid! It looks like I was showing off! Oh my God, that was so cruel! I stopped for seconds reviewing my motives; why did I learn free styling from the beginning? I can't remember I had any interest in this field. How can I throw my dreams and drag myself in something just for others sake? I felt like I took something that doesn't belong to me... something not for me at all.

"I'm sorry..."

"You don't have to be sorry. It was just something from the past."

"Take this as a gift." And I shove the skateboard to her.

"What? But, I can never..."

"I'm sure you will... one day..."

Her eyes watered as I continued "This thing suits you more than me... just take it and use it someday."

"And you? What suits you?"

"I think I'm more into poems"

"You're kidding me!"

"Well want a proof?"

I took out a corrector from my bag and wrote on the board [I will never shed a tear... coz my hope is right in here - Dai] Then I said "Here is a signature from a famous future poet to a famous future skater. She held it tight as she thanked me with pouring eyes "Thank you... Thank you so much... Dai."

I patted her head as I said "Never forget the name... and never give up on your dreams."

I left her without asking for her name, because I'm sure we will meet again.
