That is when I met You...

I was a typical school girl. The world I live in was normal... Like any other teenager, I go to school because, first, I think it's what every human is tasks to do, second, because my parents want to, and third that is, I don't even know. I wanted to break the rules but I just can't. That is when you came, and you changed me or maybe you changed the way I look at the world.

I couldn't remember how we get that close. We were in the same classroom but I did not even feel you were there. I was focus at someone else I know I could not have. One day, you told me that you like me and all I could say is, "for real?" You were bold and straight and I could not help but think that someone, for real, likes me. 

We began hanging out. At night, you would call me and talk to me until midnight. We were call-buddies, remember? We would watch English movies in cinemas and it would always be your treat because you don't like me paying for the tickets, but I end up treating you snacks after the show. You would give me gifts whenever you like but I end up giving you nothing because I couldn't save a penny from my allowance. You were sweet, straightforward and very caring. I started to like you deeper. There were times when I get jealous and you get jealous, times when you get angry at me for not eating, for sleeping late, and times when I get angry at you because you can't hold your patience and become mean to someone. But, one thing I couldn't forget is when you cried over the phone because you felt like you're parents are on the verge of separation but thankfully not. I was touch and I realized how manly you are and how much you love your family...that was the time I know I love you. 

I realized I could break some rules with you. That was the time I decided to go against the waves as long as I'm with you. You changed the monotonous rhythm in my life. It became harmonious and dynamic.

I know we don't have labels as girlfriend-boyfriend, but it was clear that we connect. I thought the label was not important because you even promised to wait until we graduate in college to have a relationship status. I thought all was going well... I really thought it was all fine and smooth.

Graduation came and still we did not have that label As days passed, you're texts became rare and even your calls. I would even message you online but there was no reply. 

Until one day, I was hurting. I felt like I was the only one holding on. I collected some guts to tell you these and ask you if we're still okay like before...you just answered, "I'm sorry." With those words, Tears rolled down. There was something in me that had collapsed and I don't know what it was. After that conversation, we never talked and texted. I felt empty, really empty. I would cry alone at night but during the day, I try to laugh with my friends in school telling that I can move on soon. I even make jokes of how I was dumb of letting you do this to me. I was dumb and I was dump! 

One year has passed, I'm still wondering your reason for not holding on with me. I'm still waiting for the answers for my questions. Did you fall out of love or there was somebody else? Did you get tired of waiting? I know there was no "us" and I still miss you at times but there's no point of telling you. With all my questions, there's one thing I often pray, that I'd be ready if ever I see you with someone else looking with those same eyes that I have seen for the four years we've been together.

I can only assure you one thing, I'm thankful that you came, that I met you.
