Love is Blind

Cindy Pham

It was a sunny day here in New York City when I first saw him. I had no interest in him. But then something changed, and he became the guy i loved the most.

1st day:
I looked at him with his gorgeous flowing emo hair. His looks are fantastic, but the things inside him was not.
I bumped into him and apologized but he glared at me and said "Watch where your going shrimp." I got very upset and threw him my bookbag. I cursed him out saying Respect ladies. He ignored me and walked away.

2nd day:
Everyone at school was treating me different because I stood up to him. The most popular boy at school. I enjoyed it, but everyone treated him differently. No One talked to him anymore. He sat by himself. I dont know why but i hated seeing him sad.

3rd day:
I went to a party and saw he was sitting outside the yard alone. I went and I sat next to him seeing him crying. I asked him "whats wrong" But i didnt get an answer. I looked at him arms and I saw blood on it. On the other hand i saw a knife. I grabbed it away from him and i screamed at him. "What the hell is wrong with you?!!!" I said. He didnt say anything back. He looked at me with unanswered eyes. Seeing that, i couldnt help but sit down and hug him close while he cries.

4th day:
Didnt show for school

5th day:
didnt show for school

6th day:
didnt show for school

7th day: i was getting worried about him. he didnt show up to school 3 days in a row but there he goes walking down the hall. I ran up to him and asked him why he didnt come. he didnt answer me but he smiled really big at me and he said "Its great seeing you." My heart skiped a beat.

several months passed and we were closer than ever. I looked at him chasing girls while he looks at me picking up guys.
Even though i wanted to be his, he didnt want the same.

three weeks passed and i have the news that he is in the hospital. Hes blind. a car hit him and it dangerously affected him. I was shocked. I couldnt speak. I wanted him to be okay and alive. When he woke up, he couldnt see anything. He was in so much pain. and i was in pain loking at him. I hugged him tightly and told him i was going to be there for him no matter what.
I then kissed him, and he kissed me back. since then we dated.
i was always with him. he didnt want to leave my side. but i left him.
my family was going to move. and i had to go with them. im moving to canada and i have to leave him behind. i didnt tell him though. i just one day left and he didnt know. I called him three weeks after, and explained to him what was going on. he cried through the phone and said he needed me back. i needed him to, but nothing could be done.
i waited until i was 21 and i went back to new york. I found him married to a beautiful girl who took care of him. when i visited him he gave me a great hug. he told me he missed me and he was glad i went to the wedding.
That night i couldnt help but cry.

i know he married someone else, but my heart was married to his. i still have feelings for him. im right now 24, and he divorced with his wife because she had cheated on him. he is in a world of sadness and i wanted to help him. but he thinks im dead and gone...
