My life, wasted, just a blink of an eye and its gone. I wish I could just go back and make things right.
Back when I was a graduating student in highschool, I was once a popular and wealthy student. Having a car, a hot cheerleader girlfriend made me very famous in school, its like I can do whatever I wanted because my father is a well-known Lawyer.
But everything changed after I graduated Highschool. My father died on an airplane crash and lost everything my family had.
The only thing my Father left behind for me was a 4 years worth of study in college. I had a hard time in College, the subjects are difficult and the teachers have high standards.
Month passed by and I noticed a girl in my class. She had some bruises on her arms. It didn't bothered me at first, but after a few weeks, new bruises kept appearing. I just knew that I had to do something.
But despite being a popular student in Highschool, I don't know how to approach girls, because I am always used to girls approaching me first.
I tried calling my mom and asked for an advice on how to talk to girls.
She simply said "Try asking her the easy way by telling her, Can we be friends?"
Later that day, I asked my friend what her name was
He said "Are you trying to hit on her? She is poor bro. Anyway, her name is Jane. I have to go, I'm in a hurry!"
I was a little offended by what he said about jane not knowing what her life was.
As our class ended, I followed Jane, 5 minutes had passed, I shouted "Hi Jane! Can we be friends?"
She glared at me for a second and walked away. I felt like a total idiot at that time. The words just slipped out of my mouth.
The next day, at the classroom, I directly told her "I am really sorry for what happened yesterday, let me ask you again, Can we be friends?"
She replied "Friend? What for? Will a friend/YOU be willing to kill someone just for my sake?".
I couldn't find any words to reply to her. She walked away.
"Girls like her are pain in the ass to deal with" I whispered to myself.
Yet I have this feeling that something bad will happen to her if I don't do anything.
The very next day, I talked to her again and said "I might not be able to kill someone, but I am willing to do anything to protect you".
I can sense her antsy feeling while being silent, so I grabbed her hand and said "Come! I have something important to show you." So I dragged her at the rooftop of our school.
It was almost 6PM and the sun was about to set. What a beautiful sight to see.
While looking at the sun setting down, I calmly spoke to her "One day, I will be free and travel the world, even if it cost me anything".
In silence I looked at her. She was crying and said "It seems like we have the same dream but unlike me, everything is just a Fantasy. I am just like a bird in a cage, where freedom doesn't exist".
