OMFG!!! a friend of mine has reminded me of this pretty old story when we were texting a while ago..
here goes...
a girl broke up with her boyfriend but she couldn't deny that she was still madly in love with him. they were estranged for several months but she couldn't suppress the fact that she missed him despite the reason of their break-up.
he cheated on her. he broke her heart..shattered it. she wasn't able to forgive him right away yet, when all the anger eased up, she couldn't bring herself to keep on hating him.
she tried to move on. going out with girlfriends to try to forget the pain she was feeling. she never talked about it, she never cried. she kept on laughing at jokes, smile at intended times. in short, she tried so hard to fool everyone that she was even convinced, herself.
then she and her girlfriends went to the mall. they were just there, planning to stroll and watch a movie, but she was dumbstruck when she saw the last person that she wanted to see who could ruin her day - her ex-boyfriend.
he was on a cafe, seated on the platform, with a guitar in his arms. he was talking. the girl tried to get away but her girlfriends pulled her inside the cafe. the bell rang when they entered and the ex-boyfriend looked up. his face lit up for a fraction of a second, but was replaced by a look of surprise upon recognizing who the newcomer was.
the girl and her friends were ushered on an empty table, "it's an acoustic night," the waitress said.
the girls giggled except for her. she kept her eyes on the table during that entire dilemma. but she wasn't able to hold for long when her ex-boyfriend started to speak.
"me and my special someone discovered this next song while the two of us were browsing random FM frequencies. we recognized the female lead singer's voice and knew that she was one of our favorites.
"we listened to the song, until the end and then, we both decided that it would be included in our short list of favorite songs.
"i'm singing this tonight, because that special someone has never left my heart, even if we're already apart."
then, he looked at her, in time when she also looked up. they both stared into each others' eyes and he smiled. he smiled the irresistible smile that he always reserved for her.
all their memories came flooding onto her brain like a plague. as the music started, her heart began racing faster, until she felt numb.
of course, she remembered that moment when they discovered the song. even before the song played, she already knew what it was.
her ex-boyfriend sang BROKEN by Seether and Amy Lee. the two of them had sang the song many times together and she felt her whole body was shaking as the song continued.
by the middle of the song, the girl caught her strength and stood up. she went out of the cafe without looking back. her girlfriend followed after her. she was walking so fast away from the cafe, away from the music, and away from the suffocating feeling that the environment was giving her.
she still didn't cry although her heart ached like it wouldn't heal again. she wouldn't try to win him back, yet, she knew that although she would be able to forget about him in the future, a tiny part of her heart would still long for him.
why i was reminded of the story? my friend told me that he was watching the BROKEN video on youtube. haha!!
