Merged: Short stories.

There was once a guy who suffered from cancer... a cancer that can't be treated. He was 18 years old and he could die anytime. All his life, he was stuck in his house being taken cared by his mother. He never went outside but he was sick of staying home and wanted to go out for once. So he asked his mother and she gave him permission.

He walked down his block and found a lot of stores. He passed a CD store and looked through the front door for a second as he walked. He stopped and went back to look into the store. He saw a young girl about his age and he knew it was love at first sight.

He opened the door and walked in, not looking at anything else but her. He walked closer and closer until he was finally at the front desk where she sat.

She looked up and asked, "Can I help you?" She smiled and he thought it was the most beautiful smile he has ever seen before and wanted to kiss her right there.

He said, "Uh... Yeah... Umm... I would like to buy a CD."

He picked one out and gave her money for it. "Would you like me to wrap it for you?" she asked, smiling her cute smile again. He nodded and she went to the back. She came back with the wrapped CD and gave it to him.

He took it and walked out of the store. He went home and from then on, he went to that store everyday and bought a CD, and she wrapped it for him. He took the CD home and put it in his closet.

He was still too shy to ask her out and he really wanted to but he couldn't. His mother found out about this and told him to just ask her.

So the next day, he took all his courage and went to the store. He bought a CD like he did everyday and once again she went to the back of the store and came back with it wrapped. He took it and when she wasn't looking, he left his phone number on the desk and ran out...

!!!RRRRRING!!!

The mother picked up the phone and said, "Hello?"

It was the girl!!! She asked for the boy and the mother started to cry and said, "You don't know? He passed away yesterday..." The line was quiet except for the cries of the boy's mother.

Later in the day. The mother went into the boy's room because she wanted to remember him. She thought she would start by looking at his clothes. So she opened the closet.

She was face to face with piles and piles and piles of unopened CDs. She was surprised to find all those CDs and she picked one up and sat down on the bed and she started to open one.

Inside, there was a CD and as she took it out of the wrapper, out fell a piece of paper. The mother picked it up and started to read it.

It said: Hi... I think U R really cute. Do u wanna go out with me? Love, Jacelyn

The mother opened another CD... Again there was a piece of paper. It said: Hi... I think U R really cute. Do u wanna go out with me? Love, Jacelyn

Love is... when you've had a huge fight but then decide to put aside your egos, hold hands and say, "I Love You".

hahay gugma jed.......

its been 4 months since i saw him and talagang namimiss ko na siya...
pero
what can i do? it seems that i have loved the wrong person.... but still
the pain keeps on hurting me and kung walang magbibigay ng gamot para
dito
sa nararamdaman ko.... baka mamatay na ako....

to give you a background about my life, everthing seems to be fine
except
dun sa time na dumating na sa buhay ko yung hinayupak na lalake na
yon.... hehehehe.... kung curious kayo about dun sa guy... bestfriend ko
po yon kaso lang iba na ang nangyari as time passes by.....

classmate ko sya nung highschool. pards pa nga ang tawagan namen.... o
db
ang sweet? di na ako iba sa kanya and ganon na ren sya sa aken.... kung
di
nga lang ako naging babae baka naiuwi na ako nun sa bahay nila and baka
lahat ng gawaing pang brusko eh ipagawa na nun sa ken eh..... pero cyempre
mukha pa ren naman akong babae noh!!
highskul cyempre may pr om.... wala cyang date, wla ren ako.... i know
that he wanted to invite me to be his date pero ang ogag nga kasi nun
kaya
the last minute tsaka lang sya nag-ask. he went to our house...
nakamotor
po sya and medyo pawisan pero infairness.... mabango pa ren....

he ask my permission to see my dress for the prom.... cyempre para
maloka
sya sa aken at may konting surprise... i refuse.... o sige, medyo na
frustrate sya pero hindi yon naging hadlang para invite nya ko.... sa
ganda ko na to..... cyempre ang dami munang pa-echeng.... hanggang sa
tanungin nya ako kung may date na ba me.... e kung di ba naman siya
abnormal eh.... papayag ba akong makipagdate sa iba eh sya lang ang
gusto
ko.... lam mo yon... sarap sampalin.... so in short, papilit pa ba ako?
syempre.....

the night of my life came, i was so pretty sabi ng nang-uuto kong
nanay...
pero naniwala lang ako nang sya na ang nagsabi.... blush ako ever....
kahit alam kong maganda ako since birth(hehehehe) iba pa ren yung sa
kanya
galing diba?

we enjoyed that night and lalo ko lang napatunayan sa sarili ko na mahal ko na pala ang hinayupak na bestfrend ko......

syempre ano pa ba ang sunod na event sa prom kundi ang graduation na db?
the night before the graduation, we talked on the phone na para bang it
would be the last time na maririnig namen ang boses ng isat-isa..... ive
waited for the moment na mabanggit nya na may feelings din sya and hindi
naman ako nagkamali.... tinanong nya akokung may possibilty daw na
maging
kame.... i know na maiinis kayo sa ken dahil alam nyo ba ang sagot ko?
ah,
eh.... hindi pwede kase bestfrends tayo eh.... yung mga anak na lang
naten
yung ipag-partner naten.... sa isip-isip ko.... ang tanga! pano ko
nasabi
ang ganong words? pero wala na akong magagawa..... alam namang bawiin ko
pa eh di nahuli naman ako db? pe ro ang tanga ko talga....

cyempre college na.... im so proud to say na napunta naman ako sa
magandang school and take note... pareho kame ng skul..... ano to?
kailangan bang ituloy ang naudlot na pagmamahalan namen?.... hehehe....

nagkaboyfriend ako for a year and a half....

minahal ko sya pero there are these conflicts and problems na di na
kayang ayusin.... in short.... nagbreak kame.....

i guess god meant that to happen kasi yon din yung time na nagkita kame
ng
bestfrend ko..... sa sobrang miss namen ang isa't-isa.... sabay na
kameng
umuwi, kumain, pumasok..... im happy pero parang lalo ko lang
pinahirapan
ang sarili ko dahil my feelings for that guy grows each and everytime
that
we are together... buti na lang magaling akong magtago at magpigil....
hehehe....bilib kayo noh?.....
one morning, im so busy preparing my project that would be pass on that
same day.... alam kong dumati ng na sya at nasa likuran ko na ang mokong
pero dahil sobrang pressure sa project.... gusto ko man syang
dambahan...
cyempre mamayang gabi na lang di ba? hehehe.... di ko sya masyadong
napansin.....

may inabot syang sulat sa aken and he asked if i could join him sa
lunch.... i said yes.... then, alis na cya.... alam naman kc nyang im
busy.....

when i was about to enter the room, somebody bumped me and my precious
project fell... gusto ko mang magalet... what can i do db? instead i ask
my prof to give me another chance to do my project.... naalala ko si
mokong.... the lunch date.... kinuha ko ang cell ko to text him that i
cant come to our meeting.... e kaso.... pag tinamaan k nga naman ng
malas.... check operator service daw.... i tried to look for friends or
other kakilala pero malas that day talaga....and so i took my lunch all
by
my self.... naalala ko yung letter.... hinanap ko sa bag... WALA !!!!
bumalik me sa corridor praying na andon pa yung sulat.... wala ren....
god! why? minsan lang magbigay ng sulat yon.... nawala pa.... dont know
how to tell him about the letter....

and so days and weeks passed, pag nagkikita kame... di nya ako
pinapansin... ako, i tried to talk to him pero alam kong may kasalanan
ako
pero ganon ba kalaki ang nagawa kong di pagpunta at ganon na lang ang
iwas
nya?... sige... hinayaan ko na lang....

months na ang binilang... i heard that he was dating a girl from the
same
school that we are in... masakit.... na sa iba ko pa narinig na sila
na.... mas masakit na wala na akong halaga sa kanya.....

basta... ilang araw din yon na ganon ang nararamdaman ko.... weeks....
months.... gagraduate na po ako.... i wonder what's instore for me in my
last day in school.... and so i thought na puntahan yung favorite hang
out
namen.... when i was about to get near the place.... i saw him... with
the
girl.... umiiyak ang bruha but i cant hear what they are talking
about....
so ive decided to get out of that place before my tears burst out....
and
then a common frend ang sumalubong sa aken.... saying na buntis ang
girl.... syempre.... durog na durog ang puso ko.... kung kaya nyo lang
ma-imagine yung naramdaman ko.....

the night of that same day.... naloka ang lola nyo.... nagparamdam ang
mokong pagkaraan ng pagkatagal-tagal na panahon... i thought it was
something good for me... for us.... pero i was wrong.... so wrong.....
he
gave me a wedding invitation and isa ako sa bridesmaids..... the girl...
she was waiting in the car.... o db? dati motor lang ngaun... car na....

and so the wedding came.... maganda po ako nun.... sabi ng nanay ko pero
wala ng nagsecond the motion eh.... so naniwala na lang ako sa nanay
ko.... then, there was this professor who came to see me.... he handed
over a letter with my name carefully printed on the enveloped.... he
said
that he looked for the owner of that letter kaso lang po malaki po ang
skul namin kaya mahirap magkahanapan db? and so nung nakita nya ang name
ko sa invitation, he decided to bring the letter thinking that it could
save souls... daw....

and so i was about to open the letter when the priest ask kung sino daw
ang tututol... dedma ako.... alam namang manggulo pa ko noh....

binasa ko na ang letter..... nakakatouch po talaga.... he opened up his
feelings for me.... hoping na meron din daw akong feelings for him....
he
ask that if i will show up to our hang- out the next day after he gave
his
letter, then it means that i also have feelings for him and that he
would
love me for the rest of our lives.... but if i wont.... then he will
never
open that topic again.... he pleaded to me na sana pumunta ako... ...

if only i have that letter.... if only i knew about it.... kung di lang
ako clumsy and careless to keep that letter... things would be
diffrent.... if only.....

and so i heard the priest announced the couple as husband and wife....
ang
sakit......

picture taking..... gusto mang sumabog ng nararamdaman ko.... as you
know.... magaling akong magpigil.... pero masakit po talaga....
sobra......

after the picture taking...... niyakap ako ng bestfrend ko.... ang
higpit.... and teary eyed nyang cnabi na....

i still love you.......

hahay saunz!
