Puppy love

I was eating out with my family just now. Suddenly, I saw a friend, an old friend. She was eating with her siblings. I never thought to see her again after all these years. We knew each other since we were in primary school. Her name is Suraya and I had a crush on her since then.

She was never my girlfriend but I paraded around the school as if she was. It's just that I was head over heels about her that I told everyone that she's my girlfriend though she never said anything about it. How stupid could I be at that time?Hehe. I was quite possesive too. I was one of the prefects at the school and not a very nice one too. I would bash people and hit them if they ever went against the rule at school. I was never afraid to use my power then. So one day, when I was in Standard 5, I heard that a boy from Standard 4 gave her a love letter. I took the letter from her and I searched for that boy. When I found him, I hit him and we fought. Maybe I thought I was the saviour though I'm not very sure what is there to protect about.Hehe. So eventually, we were sent to the headmistress' room by a teacher. Luckily, as I was a prefect and I made it look like I was doing my job, I was off the hook and that boy got his punishment. I couldnt get any corrupted than that.Hehe.

This crush went on till I was in high school. So one day, I was offered to continue my high school at a residential school. I was happy but I was afraid of not seeing her again. I accepted the offer and on the day that I was supposed to register I was so sad with the thought of leaving her. On the way to the school, I looked outside of the window car and I cried. I cried not because of leaving home but because of her. Few months after that, I got to know that she already had a boyfriend and that boy is my friend. I was so devastated because I thought she betrayed me though I knew she was never my girlfriend.

After high school, she continued her study at England in an engineering course. Just few months ago, I got to know that she was already married to his boyfriend. Which boyfriend, I dont know, but I wish her all the best in her life and that she's happy with her husband.

Maybe some love story is never meant to be pursued.

p/s : Back in the days of mIRC, the craze of that day was having these cool nicknames. Mine was cache237. The number was her birthday number, 23rd July. So I guess maybe I can wish her an early happy birthday. So, happy birthday, Su.
