a tree, a leaf, and THE WIND

WIND

... because I like a gal called leaf. She's so dependent on tree I feel I have to be a gust wind -- the wind that will blow her away. When I first met her, it was a month after I transferred to the new school. I saw a petite lady looking at my seniors & I playing soccer. During ECA time, she would always be sitting there, be it alone or with her friends, looking at him. When he talks with other girls there's jealousy in her eyes. When he looks at her, her eyes sparkle. Looking at her became my habit. Just like she likes to look at him.

One day, she wasn't there. I felt something wrong. I can't explain the feeling except that it felt uneasy. The senior was also not there as well. I went to their classroom, stayed outside and saw my seniors scolding her. Tears were in her eyes while he left. The next day, I saw her at her usual place, again looking at him. I walked over, smiled at her, took out a note & gave it to her. She was surprised. She looked at me, smiled, accepted the note and left.

Leaf's heart is too heavy and wind couldn't blow her away. It's not that leaf's heart is too heavy. It's because leaf never wanted to leave tree. She replied to my note and slowly she started to talk to me accept my presents & phone calls. I know that the person she loves is not me. But I believe that one day I will make her like me.

Within 4 months, I have declared my love for her no less than 20 times. Every time, she will change the topic. But I never give up. I have decided that I need her to be mine, and I will definitely use all means to win her over. I can't remember how many times I have declared my love to her. Although I know she will try to divert but I still bear a small ray of hope, and always I try.

One day hoping that she will agree, I asked her to be my girlfriend. I didn't hear any reply from her over the phone so I asked:

"What are you doing? How come you didn't answer?"

She said: "I'm nodding my head".

"Ah?" I couldn't believe my ears.

"I'm nodding my head" She replied loudly.

I put the phone down and quickly changed. I then took a taxi and rushed to her place & rang the bell. The moment when she opened the door, I hugged her tightly.

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