I couldn't sleep that night as usual.Everything just doesn't make sense.Why is she avoiding me
like I'm some sort of insect?Does she hate me?I'm not quiet sure myself.I don't get it at all.She's
hiding something that she doesn't want me to know.But what is it?I don't know.Why can't she
just tell me and get over with it?Is it that hard?Ist it something really important?.I know we just
met,but doesn't she understand the kind of guy I am?I would never do anything to hurt her.If she
doesn't know that,I have to prove it to her.I get anxious when I can't see her and seeing the
situation,I don't think I'm gonna have the chance to talk to her anytime soon.This .
The next day,I tried finding her during recess but she was nowhere to be found.Where could she
be?I asked one of her classmates and turns out,she didn't even came to school today.They said
she's not coming to school for at least a week.But what was the reason?They don't know either.I
don't care,but I need to find out what was her big secret.I have to know.After school, I decided to
go to the one place she knew.The orphanage.When I reached there,I couldn't believe my
eyes.There was a sign saying that the place was for sale.I quickly went inside and peeked into
the window.No one was around.What happened to the kids and miss seungyun?.No way.Why did
Lizzy nver told me about this?or maybe she doesn't know a thing about this?But how?.And there
I was.Confused and shocked.I hate to be in this state.It not only ,but really hurts.As I
walked and have no idea where I'm heading,I stopped when I saw a familiar girl sitting on a swing
set at a kids playground.I quickly checked and no doubt.It was Lizzy.I ran to her."Hi" I said not
knowing if thats what I should have said."Mir.....what are you doing here" she said while getting
up from the swing.I can see from her red eyes that she had been crying."Are you okay?
Please..let me help you!" I told her finally."I don't need help!" she said while taking a step back
from me."Why are you avoiding me?!" I said in anger and took a step forward.I knew everyone
was looking.But it didn't bothered me."Leave me alone!" she shouted and ran away.I chased
after her and finally grabbed her right arm and spun her around."I know we haven't know each
other that well and maybe your having a hard time trusting people.But please,I will never hurt
you.The truth is...I don't know what the truth is! Everything is out of place!Your keeping secrets
from me!Avoiding me!Why?Did I ever do you wrong?!Please tell me what's wrong!Don't leave
me like this!" I said in a heart crushing tone.She started crying.I let go of her arm."This has
nothing to do with you mir.."she forced herself to say while holding back tears."Of course it
does!We're friends and that means I'm in your life!I'm involved now so I have the right to ask you
what's wrong!" I shouted trying to control my emotion."This is a mistake" she said while wiping
her tears with her sleeve."Mistake?your saying it was a mistake that I'm friends with you in the
first place?Why?why is it a mistake?why is it a mistake Lizzy?!!TELL ME WHYYY!!"I shouted in a
pathetic voice and the next thing I know,I was crying like there was no tomorrow."I'm sorry to
have made you a part of my life.This is why I didn't want close friends"she said with a voice so
soft,you can barely hear."Just tell me what is it that your hiding." I said still wanting an
answer."It's not as easy as you think,Mir.I love you and I don't want you to be hurt like that." she
said in an angelic voice."Your so stubborn,Lizzy." I said while looking at her."You want to know
soo badly right?okay I'll tell you." she said in a much more confident voice which I can tell is
fake.I waited for her answer."I'm dying,Mir" she said in a weak voice."No your not" I answered
too quickly.I was soo afraid of what she is going to say next."Come closer" she said.I did as she
told and she took my right hand and place it under her shirt.What was she doing?I thought.And
that's where my life took the most emotional turn.She didn't have anything at all.I could feel extra
cloths under her shirt to make her seem like any normal girl in highschool.She didn't need to tell
me what's next.She had cancer.I quickly pulled my hand away from her shirt and I couldn't
bear to see her face."Now you know why!" she shouted in fear."I'm ugly am I?I'm abnormal and
no boy would ever want to be with a girl like me!You are one of them!It's okay,I'm expecting this
anyway.I'm ugly!!" she shouted while crying and still trying to catch her breath.I was still so
shocked that I froze there.But somehow,I took her in my arms and let her cry on my chest.My
beautiful Lizzy is dying and theres nothing I could do about it.yea I had seen people around me
die like my grandparents.But I barely even knew them and I was practically under 5 when it happened.But someone who I cared for so much and I already fell madly in love with is gonna
leave me anytime soon?Thats too much too handle for a guy like me.Suddenly,my future
seemed sooo fuzzy and unclear,like a television with bad reception.That night was the first night
I ever prayed to God while crying in a scared manner."Dear God,I love her too much,please don't
take her away from me.If You do,take me with her too!" I shouted while fighting back tears that
couldn't be fought.When your about to lose the one you love,you don't matter anymore.That
person matters to you much more than yourself.
