Night

It was raining that night. It was not that heavy, that night the rain poured romantically. As if it prepared a scene or a background sound of a beautiful memory. Joshy and Jenny went back to their dorm after a batch party. They supposed to leave with other dorm mates, somehow only them both were staying, Shawn and Mary have family plans made on short notice. Joshy and Jenny ran back at the dorm with linked arms. Because there was only one small umbrella. Little did Jenny knew, how Joshy's heart beat so fast as if it would explode any time soon. Being a gentlemen, obviously, Joshy had his half shoulder all wet, so that the cold rain did not bother Jenny's beautiful dress. Finally when they reached the dorm, Jenny invited Joshy to spend a night at her room. It was a festive weekend so most of the student went back to their hometown, and Joshy knew Jenny could be a scaredy cat sometimes so he agreed, shyly. They both dry themself with towel, Joshy changed into a comfortable t-shirt. And Jenny, she still in her black dress. At that exact time, Jenny was drying her hair and she was standing under the yellowish light, Joshy never felt so awed by a person beauty. "Hey what are you looking at dummy?" She noticed the long stare, and put on a little smile. "Nothing, hey we did not get to take much picture weren't we just now? But we got a nice camera, its unfortunate!" Joshy tried to avoid the question, he almost made a fool of himself. "Talking about picture yes, you were so busy with other people at the party Joshy that's why" Joshy replied with an awkward smile, thinking what did she means by that. Was she jealous? Somewhere somehow Jenny had an idea of taking picture together in the dorm. "It's unfortunate that you changed you party cloth already but it's okay I am still in it will suffice so let's take a couple of selfies". Joshy was actually a committee member for the party and he did felt a bit tired overall, but how can he refused, he liked her too much. Click! Click! Click! Joshy felt like the photoshoot was taking his lifetime, he wasn't sure how a woman could handle that much of bother to take a good picture that wasn't even going to be published. Eventhough it felt a bit uncomfortable, they did took a nice "couple" picture. Joshy giggled. He could not believe he was so blessed that day. That night was the first time he was alone with Jenny, he could not been any more lucky he thought. So after taking shower and everything they both get ready to go to bed. Joshy used Mary's bed to sleep. The lights switched off, they both pulled their blanket, both trying to sleep. In the mist of falling asleep, Joshy did think about how this might be the right time to confess. There were so many hints. Maybe she liked me also, Joshy thought. "She was so beautiful tonight, did I compliment her already? Gosh, I don't want it to be awkward" Joshy murmured half asleep, his voice were to soft to be noticed by Jenny. Although he felt sleepy, he pulled himself up and look at Jenny's bed. "Oh you did not sleep yet, Jenny?" He didn't realized she was sitting on the bed instead of laying. "I could not sleep, so I am listening to my playlist for awhile". "Okay, goodnight then Jenny". Joshy decided maybe he will keep the feelings inside a bit more longer. He had so much fun today and could not ask for more. He wanted to take the baby steps. He felt happy enough to smile like an idiot while closing his eyes. Tired Joshy fell asleep soundly. "Good night dear Joshy", little did Joshy knew that, that night Jenny stared at Joshy's back with her blue teary eyes, while listening to her favourite love songs, until she fell asleep into the dream land. That night both of them dreamed about each other. Maybe only in dreams unspoken words, finally be spoken.

You need to be happy with someone else

“No! You have to get married. You just, have to okay. Don’t say that you’ll might join the will-never-get-married people”, Joshy flashed out, almost sounded angry. The thing was, Jenny joked how she might be single even after 30, and those words really hit Joshy like a bullet. It was not suppose to but it will make sense if you see how he loved her from the very beginning. He could not be together with Jenny and he came to term that she has to be happily married with someone who deserves her. She deserves the world. So when she joked that way, how can Joshy not be panicked? He literally give in the love he wanted the most, for the sake of normality, and for the sake that he is not the one. She has to get married, she has to. If not, what would Joshy do with his heart? She has to be happy with someone, who is capable of loving her the way she always wanted. Jenny was confused with the gesture, but Joshy could not control his action, who would? “You have to get married, no matter wh...

Post Loving You

When it comes to love, your kind of religion would not understand. But my kind of religion would. We share the same religion, why is it our way of life is different? I told you, that I liked you. I told you that I cared about you more than you think I do. You said, I should not lead this kind of life, that I will not be blessed. But you never said that you hate me, for liking you. I did not get the wrong idea, it was not my intention to pursue this feeling in the beginning, I truly understand that what I want, is not what you want. But aren't you being too cruel? Like, cutting ties with me? Somehow, I felt like I judged you wrong. I expected more from you. I thought that, you were gonna be more kind in handling me. I felt like, I have been loving the wrong person this whole time. And then, I realized that I actually loved someone else. They have the same face as you, but it was not you. I suddenly come to terms that, I have been loving the version of you, that I my s...

Past

Hi guys. Growing up and seeing what kind of world I'm living in somewhat keeps me looking back in the past; thinking about who I really was. I gave some thought on What will I do if I were to go back through past while in present's consciousness. And I think... I will want to ask for forgiveness.  I think I was a bad friend, and I guess I'm facing the consequenses now. I remember each and every person that has touched my life and I, who was on terrible state of mind, treated them unfairly. To my good good hearted friends S,A,I,W,N,Z,T,S,Z and S... I am sorry I wasn't in the best state when we were making memories. If I could change the way I acted, I would. -There were times I was making such bad and inappropriate decisions, I'm sorry I let you joined. -There were times I was so in love with the new surrounding, I'm sorry I didn't include you. -There were times I was so confused and felt insecure, I'm sorry I went away just like that. -...
