When I open my album after many
years, I recall the emotions I experienced at that time. That was the first feeling I ever had
for someone. I never knew the event would happen with me that day. It was uncertain
and spontaneous. After a few days, I confirmed that I loved someone sincerely. A few months later someone nameless was my right, and we were in love at last.
The start of Romance
The management felt the distributions of girls in sections were not uniform. I was in class 10C. I
never knew who would join and leave my class. Few boys were adjusted to Section D, and few girls joined my class. Finally the class was set with a comparable number of boys and girls.
Class romance is usually a disastrous
idea. I couldn’t control my feelings that time. The moment of her entrance, her short hair beautifully cut, a few books in her hand, and her shy demeanor, captured my heart.
The beam of her beautiful humble face distracts my attention in the class, yet I
wasn’t overwhelmed with the feelings.
Since then it has been an affliction of
my brain. But my priority was only studying, and whenever I got spare time, I thought
of her and enjoyed her moves during social work. Intervals were my best time to
fascinate her and think further. It was tough talking to friends about her. Finally, a good friend helped me learn her name and background.
Her name was K… W… she was from the northern part of Tashigang, yet not far north. At the very end I knew everything
about her.
Finally, it was time for me to let
her know. To propose to a girl face-to-face, carrying loads of feeling, is simply a
thought. Never in real life could I face it. The commonest and best was to write a sweet epistle and send it to a friend covertly.
Finally, I did write a few sentences in a letter. The content I only remember is my remark to reply soon. A week went by waiting for a reply. One fine Saturday night, it was a moment of joy. I got her
reply, and we were united. She loved me, and I loved her. Our hearts were
manacled. She was my first love.
Within a few weeks, it was time for departure. I could not believe it. But I had to face the reality. She was far away
from me; however, she felt so close when I read her committed letters. Reminiscing about her
was my obligation.
Losing one's first love was a painful experience. I was astray by the loss of my love. I am happy that I am a friend to her
and she is the mom of a kid.
Time apprise feelings,
Eternal love shalt prevail.


Ooohhh... so sad la!
ReplyDeleteIt was that time. I am happy with new life~
DeleteWas it long distance that's why it didn't work out despite you loving each other? First love's pain really is difficult to deal with. I hope you got over it well.
ReplyDeleteEverything isn't perfect when imperfect people are players~ I am exactly fine and happy now~
DeleteGlad to hear that. :)
DeleteSo lovely to hear this story. You described the feelings of first love so well. Most people have a story of first love that is tinged with sadness. I heard somewhere recently that the first true love is meant for one reason - to break your heart. Maybe we are meant to realise that there is that eternal, other kind of love. Wishing you all kinds of love.
