"Baby, dinner" Sam heard her mom saying.
"Coming!" she said.
Sam was talking with the boy she felt in love six months ago: Thomas. The only thing she knew well, was that she would never accept her feelings and obviously, she would never confess those feelings to him or to someone else. She was living an unilateral love and for her, that was fine.
She never thought that decision could come from another source. She thought she controlled her destiny, as everybody does, but things weren't lke that. There are forces that we can't see, but feel. They control our behavior through our thinking, feelings and what is around us, with the aim of creating a whole life that we think we create completely.
Sam was in her room; on her bed, on the computer, talking with him.
"Come on, Sammy!" Thomas said. "It's dinner time!"
"Ok, ok. See you tomorrow!"
"Of course, bye...I love you."
Sam didn't hear that. "Thanks God!" thought Thomas. Even when he had said the same to her too many times, now he felt different. This time, he pronounced those three words knowing that was true.
