I open my eyes and look at the window. Yes, today is his 25th birthday. I don't have to make any surprise or even create a sweet atmosphere to leave him a good memories. I believe it was 3 years ago, I prepared lots of balloons and a chocolate cake at the cafe where we met for the first time. I waited there then I saw his shadow was walking through the wall. I looked at the door and he was already looking at me. That was one of the happiest moments in my life, seeing the one I loved looked at me before I did. I sang him Happy Birthday song and in the middle of singing it, he kissed me.
"Thank you Grace, you are the most unexpected person I've ever met. You're full of surprises and love. You know me better than I do but I can't love you better than you do," he said.
"Seeing you smile is enough for me. Because your smile tells me better than your words do," I smiled.
He was the 3rd man that I loved. The 1st one was a big guy with a red car. I remembered when I said I hated him then I splashed my apple juice to his red car. I slapped him and he tried to make me stay but I refused him. It was the first time I slapped a guy. The 2nd guy was a 'beautiful' guy. His face looked like a Korean actor. I didn't know exactly why I loved him but the strongest reason that I had was he was an expert in playing piano. Too bad, he decided to continue his study in London so we decided to break up at that time. We did love each other but that day, I thought about his important future. It was a rainy day at the pavement, and I forgot to bring my umbrella. He picked me up when I was incredibly wet. I entered his car and he looked into my eyes melancholicly.
"Grace, I know we love each other and you know my dream right? I've decided to continue my study in London next month"
"If you have to chase your dream, chase it. True love waits and I know that you have to fight for your dream. I'm happy if you can reach it"
Since then, I always order a cup of coffee at the cafe near the pavement. It reminded me of that 2nd guy. I wondered if he had succedeed in reaching his dream. Everyday would be like that until one day, the 3rd guy stood beside me and asked, "I see you around here these days. I wonder if I can join you".
It was the most wonderful 'hello' I'd ever had. Happy birthday, you're still in my heart.
