A Shadow's Love

"Thank you?"

Is that what I'm supposed to say? Really right now? 

"For what?"  

He sounded  really confused, I never planned on seeing him today, not like this at least, he was simply sitting on a bench in the garden I go to alot, I've never seen him there ever before, it was a mere coincidence nothing more.

I walked pass him, he looked up and smiled, he recognised me and smiled back and before he could even breathe, I simply couldn't let it sit inside me anymore 

"Thank you" I said, it was wrong, I know. Normally, people would say Hello or Hi but I guess I was really different 

"For What?"

His expressions changed to a very confused one but I couldn't say anything, not because I didn't want to but because she came breaking the only moment I have ever had with him. She looked gorgeous, a doll, an imaginary princess that found her way out of the cartoon books, he was too beautiful and She was my ultimate answer. I'll never be compared to her, never will be close to him in that way and never I will mean anything to him.

He looked at her, his smile came back, he tried to introduce me who was awkwardly standing in there 

"This is ..." he stopped, yeah of course, he didn't know my name, sure he didn't, I smiled and slowly drifted away, walking away from the two, it surely was awkward and confusing for both of them, I knew I made a mistake but I just had to tell him how thankful I was. Without his knowledge, he made me feel better, he made me dream of all the possible what ifs, he was kind and that's all I needed.

This is sad story and some Triggers are on the way. It was just a scary idea running through my mind. I hope that through this short story, people will learn how important it is to just Care and Ask, take first steps and simply Try because you never know by doing that you might be saving a life.

Chapter 3: Well, I don't know what should I say but Ghad this is really a great story. You all wanted us to focus on the plot not the characters and I really like.

Chapter 1: Hello, Author-nim!
Sorry I was not able to keep up with your story as well as I should. As you know, I was writing my own story which was contained a plot of unrequited love, then I'm actually going through the same situation in my real life, so to read your story on top of all of that now that was more that I could bear emotionally. Now that I'm done with my story, even though the emotions are still pretty raw, I'll have a little more time to read your story. I just hope I can get through it, LOL. I'm sure you will dazzle me with your expert writing skills as always! I'm at work right now, but I will start reading at lunch time. Can't wait to see what happens!
