Secretly Hurting

        I've always loved you since we were young, and you also loved me, but only as your bestfriend. We swore to each other that we will always support one another in every decisions we'll make. And I'll always keep that promise even if it means hurting secretly.

       We were so close, to the point that everyone who see us together thought that we're in a relationship (how I wish), but I know deep inside that we're nothing more than friends.

        And one moment changed it all. When a reunion of our batch happened, I was shocked because you suddenly admitted to me that you have a girlfriend and that girl is the girl behind you. But what shocked me the most is when I saw the lucky girl you were talking about, the girl is my cousin, a close cousin of mine, almost my sister. You told me how you met each other and how it made you happy and how lucky you are that you met a girl like her. My cousin also told me that that's the first time she experienced falling in love that deep.

        After that day, she started to hang out with us. I felt like I'm always the thirdwheel and I felt like I shouldn't be there. The both of you were always so sweet that it hurts my eyes. I thought nothing can compare to the pain I felt when you admitted that you have a girlfriend, but there is. You told me a plan of yours that broke my heart even more. And i supported you, I even helped you with your plan, because you said that it would make you happy and that you'd remember it for the rest of your life.
     
        And the day came, the gazebo you rented for that special night was ready. The bouquet of roses and the candle-lit dinner were also ready. And you were ready, wearing your favorite white polo, you looked so handsome. And the ring inside the box in your pocket was also ready. And then she came, dressed in a white sweetheart neckline dress. She went to you and asked what is happening. You kneeled in front of her and got the ring out of your pocket, then you asked the question that you have been longing to say, the "Will you marry me? " question. She said yes, and you both cried out of joy, you sealed the moment with a kiss you both shared.

        And I was there at the corner, crying silently because of pain and not joy,  watching your lovestory unfold with my cousin hurts but I'll always be there for the both of you. But I couldn't take it anymore, I walked away silently. And as I was walking, the rain poured heavily as if it can hear the agony of my heart. I thought to myself, "I promised, didn't I? That I would always support you in every decision you make, even if it means hurting myself."
