Let me start with the day when everything was fine, when everything was perfect. It was like a dream come true, to find a man who was almost perfect. You might be wondering why I used "was", yes what you saw was right. "He was just so perfect", where every girl might scream and shout his name, where every man might be jealous of who he is. He is an intelligent man, making him the valedictorian in their batch. He is a sporty man, making him one of the best in the varsity players. Everything seems nice yet in each and every side there will always be loopholes that you might accidentally see or maybe, meant to see.
It was summer, and everyone were busy with their entrance exams for their college life. We were enjoying our times together. We roamed around the beautiful tourist spots of the town. Each and every second was filled with happiness and joyous moments in our life. We shared each moment like there was no tomorrow. Again, EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT.
But as I walk through the road of my life, I suddenly realized that "perfect" has no room in my heart. I suddenly thought that I am always at my fantasy world, like I was dreaming that someday this MAN won't leave, that someday this MAN will never break his promises. I tried to break the glass dividing this doubts that I had. I opened my heart to REALITY. By then, i finally thought of those guys around me. He was just like the same with the others, and then somehow someone whispered me these words, " If you're in love, you're just busy looking at someone without even turning your back to someone who might be better, MUCH BETTER."
During that time that I heard those words from somewhere else, I thought of breaking the PERFECT glass that we made. I broke it into pieces. But the time that I did that, one of my trusted friends called me. I thought he knew about what I did. I was puzzled because it was just a minute that have passed when I did that and I didn't tell anyone about it.
My trusted friend's words surprised me A LOT. He told me about unfaithfulness, disloyalty, infidelity, and all the words that can describe what this PERFECT MAN did.
During those times that I was in his fantasy world, a witch had already captured his heart. This witch got my PERFECT MAN from me, without me knowing about all of what SHE did. He poisoned my PERFECT MAN'S heart bringing me to a person who doesn't know anything. They were together just a minute after I broke the glass that my PERFECT MAN and I did.
It was so painful... VERY PAINFUL. I thought I was the winner from the battle between HIS FANTASY and MY REALITY, but the truth hurts,I was defeated by his gratifying words and promises.
HE BROKE MY HEART.
HE WAS THIS PERFECT MAN THAT THIS POOR LITTLE GIRL HAS EVER IMAGINED, BUT NOW HE IS JUST A FLAWED PATHETIC MAN...
-this is just a short story that i made based from my experience...
- i hope that this would at least remind my friends (GIRLS/BOYS) that there is no room for perfect relationships. Sometimes you need to open your eyes and see how painful the real world is. Sometimes we just have to enlighten our hearts and minds so that no one will be hurt to the things that we are going to do...
