Wrong timing

Imagine jogging on a simple path, with nothing on each side of the road. Everyday, it was the same thing. This guy just jogs past you at this particular moment. He may not be the cutest guy or the most attractive person, but there was something about him that you just can't quite noticing.


Looking at him jog past you was a horrible hobby. Slowly, a feeling was developped. At first it was just a simple admiration, and then it grew to adoration; further on, it grew into a crush. Just like a stalker, you kept noticing his every moves and learnt more about him through his actions. The way he runs, the way his hair flicks over his eyes from time to time. Even the slightest detail you savour upon it, like what shoes he would wear on which day, and the clothes he would match with it.


Nothing escapes your eye.


One day, it just so happens, you tripped and he happened to past by. It was an embarassing mistake but then it just happened. In a blink of an eye, you just fell flat on your face. Wishing that the ground would swallow you up, you just stayed flat on the ground waiting for him to just pass by. BUT what do you know, he actually stopped to help you back on your feet.


It was just a small gesture, but it swept you off the ground. Ever since that day, you would say hi to each other. Soon the both of you became friends. It was just that moment and it created a friendship that you never expected. However, just when everything falls in place, you realised that he has a girlfriend. Everything just crashed back down at you.


Why? Just why must he have a girlfriend?


He was perfect. Everything about him was ideal just like in those movies. He was a perfect gentlemen. Everything he did gave tiny hints and increased your expectation. It was cruel, fate was cruel! All this feeling you had grew as time past, but now you had to throw it all away and go back to square one.


Your heart ached in that tiny chest cavity of yours. Everday was a torment to your heart. Voice of irrational feelings just kept making you think of numerous "What If". What if he actually liked you? What if he had a slight feeling for you? What if...

Was it right for you to keep waiting and hoping? Is this the right thing for you to do?
