He: You are so perfect for me in every way .I
cannot spend a single waking moment without you or your thoughts crossing my
mind. I want to talk to you, listen to you, feel you, hold you and spend the
rest of my life with you. I love you as much as you love yourself. Do you love
me?
She: “Love” might not be the right word. I live
you……in every breath and every heart beat.
The couple broke off eventually. The boy
moved on in life, found another love and was happy. The girl went on with her
life as if nothing had happened. Years later they met once again:
He: Did you miss me?
She: I am alive, had I missed my breath and my
heart beat I would not have survived till now!
The boy concluded he was never missed and
hence never loved. He walked away one more time from her life. But this time
the survival was easy for that girl as she came to know she was never loved in
the first place. She was just liked and that like changed the moment something
else came his way. He had moved on long back it was she who had to move on now.
P.S: Wish people understood the
difference between like/ love/ live – could avoid so many heartbreaks!
P.P.S: This is an excerpt from my new
story Treasured Ardor on which I am
currently working. Will be back with the full story soon!
