There was once this guy who is very much in love
with his girl. This romantic guy folded 1,000 pieces
of paper cranes as a gift to his girl. 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 nevercome 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
hardwork 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 walk ing 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 any more; he had his
own company, car, condo, etc. He made it! What
he saw next confused him, the couple was walking
towards a cemetery, and so he got out ofhis 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 wa nt 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.
