Just a Plain Love Story

Just call me Gia. It was just a plain love story, when I fell in love with my best friend, Miko. We were friends since we were 5 years old. We share secrets and stories to each other, we laugh and cry, we speak and live together. Until one day, I just felt an infatuation, kinda like that. Because whenever I talk to him, something’s bothering me, that I am afraid, or confused.

I kept it for a year until one day, I found out that he will study in the US. I was so blue, that I could swallow a donut wholly. I love him, we’re one. There’s nothing could be done.

Then the day came. I told him that I love him, more than a friend. But unfortunately…

He said that he only love me as a friend, like his sister.

And I was like torn into pieces. I can’t fix myself again.

I asked him why.

He didn’t say a thing. Nor sighed.

Then I found out that he’s suffering from leukemia.

I got it. He wanted to go abroad because he is sick. He told me that he only love me as a friend, because if he leaves, it may hurt my feelings.

He loved me, I knew it. Why?

Because the day before he died, he wrote a letter to me saying “Gia, i love you, but I have to set you free, because I have to go. Thank you for the years. Thank you for the memories. What I said the other day was fake. All fake. I love you, Gia. Sorry. Goodbye.

A year has passed he’s still in my heart. I know, that wherever he is now. He is just there, right beside me. Like an angel…
