L.O.V.E
I always thought that you are my role model. A role model of true love. A role model of a Happy Family. A role model that I wish to have. But today I realised that everything is just a dream. Everything is not as true as it seems.
If there is a weighing scale to measure how heavy your love is, How heavy would it weigh?
If there is a ruler to measure how deep your love is, How deep would it be?
If there is a price attached to your love, how much would it worth?
After 23 years of watching, learning and dreaming, I found out that your love is worth less than $20.
U were panic, U were worried, U were anxious. But not about her. Rather u were panic when it is going to be 7am soon. At 5.30am, you started calling me. At 5.45am, u called again. At 6.13am when u saw her the first time, u did not ask how she was, u did not look at her properly, u did not ask what happened. All u asked was to go home straight away. My heart sank. It broke. Home is so near. Home is only 5 minutes away. U could have left at 6.45am but u chose to leave at 6.14am. What is the hurry? Why the rush?
Yet she spoke for u, yet she said it's ok, yet she said it was not ur fault, yet u chased me home.
I chose to stay. I am not being childish, I am not trying to fight back with him. I only wanted u to get settled before I can leave peacefully. Only after hearing what Dr Kevin said, I was relieved.
I switched off the lights, returned the pen and walked out at 6.43am.
I walked home carrying the jacket that was stained with your blood, walked down the long slope. Thinking.
I was hungry and I felt my body fighting back. Perhaps it was a way of punishing me. I couldn't walk straight. But I held the jacket closer and walked home.
I reached the market and got your favorite food.
I reached home at 7.16am.
U were asleep. U heard me returning home. But u did not ask abt her...
I asked myself, how much is love worth?
Now, I realised it is worth less than the $20. Less than a car coupon.
I promised I will make up for her.
I promised I will love her more than u do.
I begin to hate u.
PS: How much is ur love worth?
