A TREE, a leaf and the wind

TREE

People call me "Tree".

I had dated 5 gals when I was in Pre-U. There's one gal who I love a lot but never dared to go after. She didn't have a pretty face, or good figure, nor outstanding charm. She was just a very ordinary gal. I liked her. I really liked her. I liked her innocence, her frankness, her intelligence and her fragility. My Reason for not going after her was because I felt somebody so ordinary like her was not a good match for me. I was also afraid that after we were together all the feelings would vanish. I was also afraid other's gossip would hurt her.

I felt that if she were my gal, she'd be mine ultimately & I didn't have to give up everything just for her. The last reason, made her accompany me for 3 years. She watched me chase other gals, and I have made her heart cry for 3 years.

She was a good actress and me a demanding director. When I kissed my 2nd girlfriend, she bumped into us. She was embarrassed but smiled & said, "Go on!" before running off. The next day, her eyes were swollen like a walnut. I didn't want to know what caused her to cry. Later that day, I returned from soccer training to get something & watched her cry in the classroom for an hour or so. My 4th girlfriend didn't like her. There was once when both of them quarreled. I know that based on her character she's not the type that will start off the quarrel. But I still sided with my girlfriend. I shouted at her & ignored her feelings and walked off with my girlfriend. The next day, she was laughing & joking with me like nothing happened. I know she was hurt but she didn't know deep down inside I was hurt too.

When I broke up with my 5th girlfriend, I asked her out. Later that day, I told her I had something to tell her. I told her about my break up. Coincidentally, she has something to tell me too, about her getting together. I knew who the guy was. His pursuit for her had been the talk of the School. I didn't show her my heartache, just smiles & best wishes. Once I reached home, I couldn't breathe. Tears rolled & I broke down. How many times have I seen her cry for the man who didn't acknowledge her presence?

During graduation, I read the sms in my hp. It said:

"Leaf's departure is because of Wind's pursuit.
Or because Tree didn't ask her to stay".
