"Everybody falls in love, but some people pursue it, while others never find it. I am one of those who never got the person I loved. This love started back in school when I was in grade 1. We used to tease each other, and everyone around us could see it. We both had feelings for each other, but we were too young to understand what love was.
Then, a time came when I had to leave and we were separated for five years. I never forgot him, though. I tried finding him on Facebook, but I couldn't. It was in 2021, when I was in grade 9, that I saw him again. I was watching a football match at school, and suddenly, there he was—the boy I had been waiting for for five years. I was so happy, but we didn’t speak to each other. I couldn’t approach him to ask how he was, but I kept looking for him wherever I went.
One day, I was heading home with my friends, and I saw him sitting near the road to my house. I didn’t talk to him. That day, if I had just spoken to him, maybe things would have been different, but how could I talk to him when he wasn’t speaking to me? So, I just walked past and went home. My love for him grew stronger day by day. How could I control my feelings for him? So, I decided to approach him during the vacation.
However, life was always unfair to me. I soon found out that he had a girlfriend. My heart shattered when I heard that news. I spent my whole grade 10 just watching him, even though he was with her. Sometimes, I would see him with her, and it hurt. How could he do that to me?
One morning, as I was walking from home to school, I saw him with her again, just as I was about to reach the steps of my class. I had to walk by them, and it was so embarrassing for me. Time passed, and I received my grade 10 results. It was good enough to go to high school, so I had to change schools. I started enjoying my time in high school, but I missed him a lot.
One day, I decided to approach him on Facebook. I went online in the ICT lab at school and sent him a message telling him how I felt. But he just responded with a dot. It was such an awkward moment for me.
Now, I can’t forget him, and I still love him deeply. I will wait for him until he understands my feelings, and I’ll love him until my last breath❤️.
Thank you 🥰.
