Class 10...
As I sat there in English class,I stared at the girl next to me. She was my so called 'best friend'. I stared at her long, silky hair, and wished she was mine. But
she didn't think of me like that, and I knew it. After class, she walked up to me and asked me for the notes she had missed the day before. I handed them to
her. She said 'thanks' and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I want to tell her, I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love her but I'm just too shy,
....I dont know why.
Class 11...
The phone rang. On the other end, it was her. She was in tears, mumbling on and on about how her love had broke her heart. She asked me to come over
because she didn't want to be alone, so I did. As I sat next to her on the sofa, I stared at her soft eyes, wishing she was mine.She looked at me, said 'thanks'
and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I want to tell her, I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love her but I'm just too shy, .... I dont know why.
Second year...
The day before a college dance festival she walked to my locker. "My date is sick" she said, "he's not gonna go" well, I didn't have a date, and in 7th class, we
made a promise that if neither of us had dates, we would go together just as 'best friends'. So we did. That night, after everything was over, I was standing at
her front door step. I stared at her as she smiled at me and stared at me with her crystal eyes. She said- "I had the best time, thanks!" and gave me a kiss on
the cheek. I want to tell her, I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love her but I'm just too shy, ...I dont know why.
A day passed, then a week, then a month ... and more time.
Before I could blink, it was graduation day. I watched as her perfect body floated like an angle upon stage to get her diploma. I wanted her to be mine-but she
didn't notice me like that, and I knew it. Before everyone went home, she came to me in her smock and hat, and cried as I hugged her. Then she lifted her
head from my shoulder and said- 'you're my best friend, thanks' and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I want to tell her, I want her to know that I don't want to be
just friends, I love her but I'm just too shy, ...I dont know why.
Now I sit in the pews of the church. That girl is getting married... the one I have loved all my life is getting married now !!! I watched her say 'I do' and drive off
to her new life, married to another man. I wanted her to be mine, but she didn't see me like that, and knew it. But before she drove away, she came to me and
said 'you came'. She said 'thanks' and kissed me on the cheek. I want to tell her, I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends, I love her but I'm just
too shy, ...I dont know why.
Years passed...
I looked down at the coffin of a girl who used to be my 'best friend'. At the service, they read a diary entry she had wrote in her high school years. This is what
it read: "I stare at him wishing he was mine, but he doesn't notice me like that, and I know it. I want to tell him, I want him to know that I don't want to be just
friends, I love him, I wish he would tell me he loved me. But he's just too shy, ...I dont know why."
'I wish I did too...' I thought to my self, and I cried. Everyone... this is one of those timeless tales which might have happened at anytime... might even be
happening rite now in your life .. maybe !!! So do yourself a favour, tell her/him you love them 'cuz they just won't be there forever.
