The Touch

She thinks through the whole process. It won't work. It just won't work. Sigh......

"Why is it so difficult to get a present for him?"

She hated the current situation bogging her down, unable to find a private space to do what she had desired to do. She kind of envied her friends, who had the financial ability and also the time to buy their loved ones presents; but her, she's monetarily able, but not the time. Of all occasions, she had to be deceived by time now.

She relented, throwing her frustrations aside, and picked up her lecture notes, sigh......there she goes again, thinking of the inability to perform her role, sighing over what will be coming soon. Then, she sees him, over the internet. He had just finished his exam. It's her turn tomorrow. Then he mentioned about their meeting. She gulped, not knowing what to answer.

She hates it, she didn't like to be the one not capable of giving him a promising day. He had done it several times. She's always flattered, touched, his little actions never fail to lighten her day when she's facing her darkest moments. She always had to go through pain, and he's always there.

She was saved by his touch, that very touch that turn her stone cold heart to warm up for more possibilities. She thought that she'll always be a friend, a good family member, and no else. She had given up hopes that she'll ever be anyone's lover, because she don't even know how to love. She didn't want to go through the pain, the pain of being rejected, put behind, getting sick of it. She had a few flames that were put out very quickly. But one flame remained burning, deeply inside her.

"Hey, wassup?"

"Hey, errr...."

"?"

"I'm sorry....I couldn't get u a present...."

"Its ok...we'll still have fun tml"

He's always like that. He doesn't mind the little things. But she knows, its always the little things that he keeps it deep in his heart. She too, remembers his every little moments. It was his touch that first brought them to where they stand now.

They had a very good birthday celebration. She was delighted to see his happiness. She has had experience. Now she anticipates for more to come, hoping for another adventure for them.
