Sinong lalaki?”
Nacucurious tuloy si Ashley. Hindi ko pa kasi nakukuwento sa kanya. OH-OH.
Mich! Wag ka nga maingay!”
Tinakpan ko ‘yung bibig niya. Ito talagang babaeng ‘to ang daldal.
Sabi niya nakilala niya ‘yung boy ‘noon sa ospital ‘noong bata pa siya.”
Shortcut ang kwento ni MICH! Pero tama siya hindi nga lang kumpleto.
Oo nga . . . naalala ko na. Mayroon nga pala transfer student sa second year. Gwapo daw.”
Nakita ko na din siya. Ang gwapo talaga . . . CRUSH ko na siya.”
Ano kayang pangalan niya?”
Aba't nag-usap mag-isa. HMP! Haha ito talagang mga kaibigan ko.
The days were passing and Ashley was getting used to the university and other activities. The boys
totally ignored her by not talking with her. She thought that, I don’t need boys. It’s their wish. After few
months she fell in love with a boy Alexander. Alexander was her classmate, and he hated her more
than any girls in his life. She started to talk with him, even though he tried to avoid her. One day
Alexander asked Ashley, “What’s your problem? Stop bugging me. I’m not interested in talking with
you.”
“What mistake did I make? I just like to be friend with you. That’s it. Is there anything wrong with that?”
Ashley responded.
“Look Ashley! I’ve work to do, and leave me alone. And try not to talk to me ever again.” Alexander
responded harshly.
“Okay! Fine! I won’t disturb you. But tell me the reason for your anger?” Ashley posed a question.
“Why are asking me? What happen to all this month’s when you were not at all talking to any boys?
And all of a sudden you came and started to talk as if you don’t know anything.” Alexander continued,
“Try to analyze yourself and then get back to me, if you really want to know the true reason.”
“I never did any mistake in my life. I don’t have to analyze without doing any mistake.” Ashley
continued, “You must’ve mistaken with me. When you find out you will come and talk to me on that
day.”
“Ha Ha Ha. That’s really funny. Okay we’ll see.” Alexander said and walked out of the room.
After Alexander went outside Ashley bowed her head down and slowly from her eyes tears was rolling
out and it went on for a while and then she stopped. She was so upset and after reaching home her
mother asked, “What happened honey, your face is not charming at all.”
“Nothing mom, just not feeling well.” Ashley responded and went to her room upstairs.
In deep down inside her thoughts, her subconscious mind started to tell, “What went wrong, analyze
yourself.”
“Now even you started to give me an advice. Great.” Ashley spoke to herself
“It’s better to solve the issue than make it worse. Think of it. It’s up to you.” Ashley’s subconscious
mind responded and kept quit.
Ashley started to analyze herself but unfortunately she was becoming mad to find out the reason and
got nothing but headache. On the next day she went directly to Alexander and stood in front of him.
He was just staring at her and she was waiting weather he would talk first. He saw her for few seconds
and started to walk away. She was astonished and shouted, “Alexander!” He stopped and turned
around. Ashley went near to Alexander’s face and asked, “What you can see in my eyes.”
“Why you’re asking me? How would I know?” Alexander continued, “May be due to dust.”
“Don’t act funny. It’s because of you my eyes is filled with water.” Ashley said.
“I didn’t poke in your eyes; neither put a sand or dust. You can’t blame me girl.” Alexander responded
with a serious look.
“I was thinking about the thing you said yesterday and entire night I couldn’t sleep.” Ashley continued,
“I came to you to say, ‘I LOVE YOU’ but you don’t have a heart to accept my love.”
“Wow! That’s good to hear from you.” Alexander stared at her and continued, “Do you know that ‘I
LOVED YOU’ as the day I first saw you, but you don’t deserve it at all.”
“What! Are you joking?” Ashley said and asked, “Then why you’re hurting me like this. I’ve never seen
a person to hurt whom they love.”
“I said, ‘I LOVED YOU’ Did I mention now I’m in love with you.” Alexander continued, “Do you know
what your problem is?”
“I was searching for your problem with me, never thought other way around.” Ashley continued, “I
would appreciate if you can tell me what I did wrong with you in the past.”
“On the first day when I was coming behind you to propose you, you suddenly said to you colleagues
and friends that, ‘Boy are not cool in this university.’ By listing to those words I saw the evil side of you
towards boys” Alexander continued, “May be after that if you had spoken to other boys it would’ve
been better, but you always ignored everyone, and now you came to me because you love me.
Otherwise! You would’ve not even spoken with me now also.”
“It was not like that. On that day everyone started to comment on the boys in that manner, and I also
said in that way. Beside I’m bit scared to talk with boys apart from that, why I would’ve kept so distance
with everyone.”
“Look! If everyone likes to die and go to hell, will you follow them blindly are you will use your brain?”
Alexander exclaimed, “If you want to prove your love, try to make the things better in our campus. Be
friendly with everyone and gain their friendship. Then I’ll consider your proposal.”
Kelly was in shock with that long conversation with Alexander. She was puzzled, because she doesn’t
know from where to start to bring back the things to normal. She started to talk with boys by asking for
pen, book, assignment, Xerox copy and many more. The boys in the class were not spoken to her
properly. She was intelligent, so she started to use her knowledge to explain to the average
intelligence level boys and made friends with them. Other boys also started to like her attitude and all
of a sudden everything changed according to the she wanted. Alexander was pleased with her style
and went near her. Kelly suddenly turned and saw that Alexander was in front of her. She said,
“Thanks for everything.”
“No need. What you learn out of this?” Alexander aroused a question.
“Well! First of all, I learn that life would be great with plenty of friends around us. Secondly, all boys
are not bad, there are even good guys in an around us.” Ashley responded with a cute smile.
“That’s really good to hear from you Kelly.” Alexander continued, “I want to say to something and I
want to give you one thing.”
“Not now. Evening before living the campus, meet me I’ll tell you.” Alexander said and went back to his
desk and sat down.
Ashley was so excited and she waited till evening. She felt that the time suddenly started to tic slowly.
At last in evening she went near to Alexander and asked, “You were telling something in the morning.
What is it?”
“I never thought that this day would come. First let me give you the thing which belongs to you.”
Alexander continued, “Close your eyes. Please!”
Alexander was tensed but acted bravely and kissed her. She was shocked, surprised and happy. After
kissing her, he said, “I LOVE YOU.” Continued, “Will you marry me?”
“Yes! I will.” Ashley responded and from that time onwards they had a great life. After completion of
their graduation they got married and made their life enjoyable.
The moral of the story is that, in life everyone has to have friends. There will be good and a bad person
in our society and surroundings, but it doesn’t mean that all are bad. Even if a person have rotten
attitude, if you speak with them in a positive manner you can still have a chance to change them.
Changes of the surrounding starts with the way you start to think and do, not in the way of seeing and
hearing.
