I never got to say what i felt and everyday since graduation I felt like there was an empty space inside of me. I moved to the states and went to college there. 

I met new girls but no one compared to Ina, well that's life for me

8 years passed and i decided to go back to home to the Phillippines for a quick vacation. The day after my arrival I decided to eat in a cafe, and as i enter I saw her. It's like she never changed. Her eyes were still shining and her smile was still perfect. I sat down without her knowing at the the table right next to her's. I stared, I know it was awkwardto do so but I couldn't help myself. And then she got up and saw me. My heart was beating fast, i could feel it or was it just in my head. She went closer and closer and closer and then said my name................ I wanted to run away but at the same time I  wanted to shout with joy. She asked me if she could seat beside me and i nodded back. Time flew when i was talking to her. I wanted to tell her what i felt but then she handed me an envelope and left hurridly after she saw the time.  

Inside the envelope was something unexpected. 

It broke my heart. It said that she was to be married in two days

Two days passed and now I sit in the pews of the church... A church that she is getting married in now... I watched her say "I do" an drive off to her new life... Married to another man... I wanted her to be mine... But she didn't see me like that... And I knew it... But before she drove away... She came to me and said "You came!... Thanks!"... And she kissed me on the cheek... I wanted to tell her... I wantd her to know that I didn't want to be "just friends"... I love her but I'm just too shy... And I don't know why...
