Although, at that time he was just a small fry in his
company, his future didn't seem too bright, they were very happy together.
Until one day, his girl told him she was going to Paris and will never come
back. She also told him that she cannot visualize any future for the both of
them, so they went their own ways there and then.
Heartbroken, the guy agreed. But when he regained his
confidence, he worked hard day and night, slogging his body and mind just to
make something out of himself. Finally with all the hard work and the help of
friends, this guy had set up his own company. You never fail until you stop
trying.
One rainy day, while this guy was driving, he saw an
elderly couple sharing an umbrella in the rain walking to some destination.
Even with the umbrella, they were still drenched. It didn't take him long to
realize they were his girl's parents. With a heart in getting back at them, he
drove slowly beside the couple, wanting them to spot him in his luxury sedan.
He wanted them to know that he wasn't the same anymore; he had his own company,
car, condo, etc. He had made it!
What he saw next confused him, the couple was walking
towards a cemetery, and so he got out of his car and followed...and he saw his
girl, a photograph of her smiling sweetly as ever at him from her tombstone and
he saw his paper cranes right beside her... Her parents saw him.
He asked them why this had happened. They explained, she
did not leave for France at all. She was ill with cancer. She had believed that
he will make it someday, but she did not want to be his obstacle... therefore
she had chosen to leave him.
Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want
them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have. She had wanted
her parents to put his paper cranes beside her, because, if the day comes when
fate brings him to her again...he can take some of those back with him... Once
you have loved, you will always love. For what's in your mind may escape but
what's in your heart will remain forever.
The guy just wept. The worst way to miss someone is to be
sitting right beside her knowing you can't have her, see her or be with her
ever again. Hope you understand. Find time to realize that there is one person
who means so much to you; for you might wake up one morning losing that person
who you thought meant nothing to you.
