There was a guy who believed very much in true love and decided to take his
time tow wait for his right girl to appear. He believed that there would
definitely be someone special out there for him, but none come.
Every year at Christmas, his ex-girlfriend would return from Vancouver to
look him up. He was aware that she still held some hope of re-kindling the past
romance with him. He did not wish to mislead her in any way. So he would always
get one of his girl friends to pose as his steady whenever she came back. That
went on for several years and each year, the guy would get a different girl to
pose as his romantic interest. So whenever the ex-girlfriend came to visit him,
she would be led into believing that it was all over between her and the guy.
The girl took all those rather well, often trying to casually tease him about
his different girlfriends, or so, as it seemed! In fact, the girl often wept in
secret whenever she saw him with anther girl, but she was too proud to admit it.
Still, every Christmas, she returned, hoping to re-kindle some form of romance.
But each time, she returned to Vancouver feeling disappointed.
Finally she decided that she could not play that game any longer. Therefore,
she confronted him and professed that after all those years, he was still
the only man that she had ever loved. Although the guy knew of her feelings for
him, he was still taken back and have never expected her to react that way. He
always thought that she would slowly forget about him over time and come to
terms that it was all over between them. Although he was touched by her undying
love for him and wanted so much to accept her again, he remembered why he
rejected her in the first place-she was not the one he wanted. So he hardened
his heart and turned her down cruelly. Since then, three years have passed and
the girl never return anymore. They never even wrote to each other. The guy went
on his life... still searching for the one but somehow deep inside him, he
missed the girl.
On the Christmas of 1995, he went to his friend's party alone. "Hey, how come
all alone this year? where are all your girlfriends? what happened to that
Vancouver babe who joins you every Christmas?", asked one of his friend. He felt
warm and comforted by his friend's queries about her, still he just surged on.
Then, he came upon one of his many girlfriends whom he once requested to pose as
his steady. He wanted so much to ignore her... not that he was impolite, but
because at that moment, he just didn't feel comfortable with those girlfriends
anymore. It was almost like he was being judged by them. The girl saw him and
shouted across the floor for him. Unable to avoid her, he went up to acknowledge
her.
"Hi... how are you? Enjoying the party?" the girl asked
"Sure... yeah!". he replied.She was slightly tipsy... must be
from the whiskey on her hand. she continued, "Why...? Don't you need someone to
pose as your girlfriend this year?" Then he answered, "No, there is no need for
that anymore..."Before he can continue, he was interrupted, "Oh yes!
Must have found a girlfriend! You haven't been searching for one for the past
years, right?" The man looked up, as if he has struck gold, his face beamed and
looked directly at the drunken girl. He replied, "Yes... you are right! I
haven't been looking for anyone for the past years." With that, the man darted
across the floor and out the door, leaving the lady in much bewilderment. He
finally realized that he has already found his dream girl, and she was... the
Vancouver girl all along! The drunken lady has said something that awoken him.
All along he has found his girl. That was why he did not bother to look
further when he realized she was not coming back. It was not any specific girl
he was seeking! It was perfection that he wanted, and yes... perfection!!
Relationship is something both parties should work on. Realizing that he had let
away someone so important in his life, he decided to all her immediately. His
whole mind was flooded with fear. He was afraid that she might have found
someone new or no longer had the same feelings anymore... For once, he felt the
fear of losing someone.
As it was Christmas eve, the lone was quite hard to get through, especially
an overseas call. He tried again and again, never giving up. Finally, he got
through... precisely at 12:00 midnight. He confessed his love for her and the
girl was moved to tears. It seemed that she never got over him! Even after so
long, she was still waiting for him, never giving up.
He was so excited to meet her and to begin his new chapter of their lives. He
decided to fly to Vancouver to join her. It was the happiest time of their
lives! But their happy time was short-live. Two days before he was supposed to
fly to Vancouver, he received a call from her father. She had a head-on car
collision with a drunken driver. She passed away after 6 hour in a coma.The
guy was devastated, as it was a complete loss. Why did fate played such cruel
games with him? He cursed the heaven for taking her away from him, denying even
one last look at her! How cruel he cursed! How he damned the Gods...!! How he
hated himself... for taking so long to realize his mistake!!
The End...
