A Love Story

There was once a girl who loved a guy so much. Painful break-ups, funny encounters, name every event and the girl was there for him. The guy appreciated the girl's effort and tried to reciprocate the girl's feelings. But there was a huge problem, even if they have special relationship with each other, they can't be together, for the guy loved somebody else... Greater than what he felt for the girl who was always there. But the girl didn't mind, for as long as they talked and bonded, she sticked around, even if it killed her inside.

Years passed and they kept in touch until one day, the girl just stopped talking to the guy. She changed her number and moved out of her house. The guy was confused and looked for the girl. But nobody knew where she was. Her parents refused to talk to him and her friends didn't know her where-abouts.

A month had passed and the guy gave up in searching for the girl. He moved on from the loss and lived his life back again.

Days, weeks, and months had gone by and it was nearing christmas day.

The guy received a card from the girl. He read it and here's what the girl said to him:

"By the time you reach this card, I'm probably gone now. I'm sorry I didn't fight for my feelings for you. I was always there waiting for you but you never came. I hope you'll be happy with her because that's what I always wanted. Your hapiness..."

Thinking that it was just a cruel trick played on him, he went to the girl's house to demand for an explanation. But instead of finding the girl there, her lifeless body lying on a casket was all he found. Her parents explained to him that the girl suffered from leukemia. Her parents gave the guy all the letters the girl wrote for him when she was in the hospital.

He read them all and tears fell because he made a mistake. He didn't realize how much the girl loved him. He blamed himself for being a jerk. The girl never complained for every pain that the guy caused him. She was always there, waiting.

If only tears can bring her back... If only....
