Loved You Too Much

Sweet Love

We walked and walked until we reached a park nearby. We sat down on a bench and I turned around to face him. I looked at him and waited for him to tell me the story. He noticed that I was was waiting.

  "I was in a serious relationship 2 years back" he said looking me in the eye.

"Her name was Nithya and she was 1 year younger than me."

I asked him "What do you mean by was?"

There was pin drop silence for a moment. He looked down and his eyes began to tear. I honestly couldn't see him like that. I felt so bad and guilty! I said

"P.. p.. please don't cry. I'm sorry!"

"It's not your fault" he said looking at me.

And then he continued "she died in an accident..  She died in my arms..  It.. it  was all my fault!" He said while wiping his eyes.

My eyes widened. I couldn't find words to express how sorry I was.

"I.. I.. I'm so sorry! I nev.." 

"It's ok" he said immediately.

"It's her fate. What can I do? It's not your fault anyway."

Silence once again surrounded us.

"But if we were to fall in love, I'm not gonna lose you again! I can't take it anymore!" He said. 

I thought practically and said

"Even if we fall in love, it's gonna be really hard! I'll be going back in two weeks time. How? I really do like you but.." 

"But?" He asked "It's in our hands. The more obstacles, the stronger our relationship will be"

he said while touching my hand. I smiled
On our way back home, we held hands. I never felt like letting go.

By the time we reached home it was already 6p.m. plus. The moment I stepped in the house, all my cousins we're like

"Did he propose to you? Where's the ring? Did you kiss? Did you hug?" And blah blah blah.

"You gotta be kidding me!" I said while both my hands on my hips and smiling.(I'm describing a lot cause I want you to imagine. Lol) The funny part was, all my cousins knew that he liked me, but I had  no idea at all! That night after having my shower and all, we were all sitting in the hall watching TV after dinner. It was a tiring day for the adults so they went to sleep a bit early. Only teenage cousins were left alone. It was quite boring actually. No one speaked a single word. You know I hate silence! So I just wanted to say something and Kelvin cut me through and said

"You know what?! Let's play a game!" I was giggling over thinking that we had the same idea. So we all (15-20 ppl) sat in a huge circle and we played truth or dare. It was funny, like really funny! We were all laughing our ass off! We all took turns. The cute part is, Kelvin was sitting exactly opposite so we could see each other's reaction. It was like, every time there's a funny dare, I would laugh like hell. And every time I laugh, he will look at me. Just to see me laugh. It was my turn and I chose dare!
