There is a saying, Out of sight, Out of mind?
But how can that be true?
You are not here,
Yet I can't get you Out of my mind.
Xavier Serrano as Ryan Smith
Cyndiana Collins's POV
As soon as I reached home, I closed the door and rushed into my bedroom. I quickly undress myself, took a white towel and entered the shower.
For the first few seconds I let the droplets of water fell onto my face. I can never ever forget that fateful day when I first met Ryan Smith the famous guy at school, the one I hated with all my heart.
It all happened 16 years ago when I was only six years old it was the first time I saw him and my world stand still, there stood the most precious creature I ever laid my eyes on. He was perfect, his cuteness had my heart beating so fast that I thought it might burst into pieces. I looked at him with so much adoration while he merely looked at me as if I was the worst thing he ever saw. For the first time in my six years, I wondered how I looked in someone else's eyes.
Years passed by, he became everyone's favourite boy, the guy who almost every girl liked so I had to put on a facade of not liking him in order to keep my feelings to myself. I couldn't help but fall in love with him with all the small fights that we had. Each time we would cross path, there would be a battle. We were like real enemies.
But it all soon changed when the end of primary school approached, I noticed a slight change in him, he was no more that guy with whom I could ruthlessly fight, but instead he became a very caring person. The last day we talked to each other he was gentle and his eyes secretly looked at me as if looking at me for the last time, telling me something which I could not understand at that time.
Years flew by, the more the days passed by, the more I missed him. At first, I could not understand what was happening to me, why I was acting weird, why I dreamed about him each night while sleeping, think about him day and night like mad. The more questions I asked, the more my heart whispered his name.
At last, I realized it's my heart whispering to me that I loved him and it was love that always drew me back to him, even though he was not near but he calmed all my inner fears.I finally pour out my feelings in a letter and asked a friend to give it to him the day after his birthday. I patiently waited for his reply, seconds turned into minutes, minutes into hours, hours into days, days into months, months into years but he never replied.
Each day I would wait for his reply, each day I felt my hope slowly dying yet each morning I would find a new hope and wait for him. Until on one fine day I found out that he went abroad for higher studies, I was completely broken, he broke me so many times without doing anything but yet I wonder why do I still care and love him.
That day I cried out all the pain which I felt, all those sleepless nights I spent thinking only about him, thinking that he might be missing me in the same way but he proved me that it was merely my misconception. Tears cascaded my eyes each night and soaked my pillow and my heart was not ready to accept the fact that he left without saying a word.
When suddenly someone knocked at the front door and brought me back to reality. I quickly wrapped myself with the towel and went to open the door. It was Nadia Dee. She noticed my reddish eyes and asked me,
"You were crying again, right?""No", I denied.
" Stop lying little one", she said and softly wrapped me with her hands and pulled me in a tight hug, I again broke out into tears . I told her that I saw Ryan after all these years. She was shocked but then to cheer me up, she changed the topic. That night we watched TV for like hours and finally went to sleep.
