A Short Story
My morning starts to shine with teardrops in my eyes… and a heavy heart. My emotions are getting the best of me, so let me make the most out of it.

Here’s something out of that emotion which inspired me to write this short story...



There was this man. He was on top of the world. Successful career, a family that loves and respects him, nice car, and a nice girlfriend. He loves his life. It couldn’t get any better.

One day, I got to talk to this man. He was intelligent, warm, friendly, and had a good sense of humor. He exudes effortless charm and vigor. He told funny and amusing stories with glint in his eyes. Time passes by unnoticed while having such pleasurable conversations with him.

He then started to get serious. Attentively, I listened as he reminisced. I smiled and laughed with him as he recounts the happiest days of his life. And, like any other life that all of us live, he had his saddest days, too.

He tells the story of this girl which, I later realize, was his greatest love. She was the love of his life – all he ever dreamed of. Hers was his mirror image: smart, witty, charming, full of life, and kind-hearted. Days they spent together were the best and the most memorable times of his life. It could’ve had a happy ending. Could’ve been. But then they fell apart. They said their good-byes. This was the saddest and the lowest point of his life.

I saw how he sees her in his eyes; I felt what he feels for her during those times. His eyes said all the things he could not say, the feelings he could not express. All the love, the pain, the sorrow and the anguish he felt… I, too, have felt. Tears almost escaped out of the corner of my eyes as I ponder… emptiness fills his heart after his lost love.

His story ends. I smile. I smiled at him while secretly, my story begins. Silently, I tell myself, “I could never stand up to the one woman he measures everybody else with…”
