There was this guy who believed very much in true love
and decided to take his time to wait for his right girl
to appear. He believed that there would definitely be
someone special out there for him, but none came.
Every year at Christmas, his ex-girlfriend would return
from Vancouver to look him up. He was aware that she still
held some hope of re-kindling the past romance with him.
He did not wish to mislead her in any way. Hence, he would
always get one of his girl friends to pose as his girlfriend
whenever she came back. That went on for several years
and every year, the guy would get a different girl to
pose as his romantic interest. Therefore, whenever the
ex-girlfriend came to visit him, she would be led into
believing that it was all over between her and the guy.
The girl took all these rather well. She often tries
to casually tease him about his different girlfriends,
or so, as it seemed! In fact, the girl often weeps secretly
whenever she sees him with another girl but she was too
proud to admit it. Still, she returned every Christmas,
hoping to re-kindle some form of romance. But each time,
she returned to Vancouver feeling disappointed.
She finally decided that she could not play this game
any longer. Therefore, she confronted him and professed
that after all these years, he was still the only man
that she had ever loved. Although the guy knew of her
feelings for him, he was still taken aback and never expected
her to react this way. He always thought that she would
slowly forget about him over time and come to terms that
it was all over between them. Although he was touched
by her undying love for him and wanted so much to accept
her again, he remembered why he rejected her in the first
place - she was not the one he wanted. As a result, he
hardened his heart and turned her down cruelly. Since
then, the girl did not return from Vancouver for three
years. They did not even write to each other. The guy
went on with his life as he continues his search for his
one true love. However somehow deep inside him, he knew
that he misses the girl.
During the Christmas of 1995, he went to his friend's
party alone.
"Hey, how come you are all alone this year? Where
are all your girlfriends? What happened to that Vancouver
babe who joins you every Christmas?", asked one of
his friends.
He felt warm and comforted by his friend's queries about
her but still he simply surged on. Then, he came upon
one of his many girlfriends whom he once requested to
pose as his girlfriend. He wanted so much to ignore her.
It wasn’t because he was impolite but because at
that moment, he just didn't feel comfortable with those
girlfriends anymore. He felt that it was almost as if
he was being judged by them. The girl saw him and shouted
across the floor for him. Unable to avoid her, he went
up to acknowledge her.
"Hi. How are you? Enjoying the party?" the
girl asked.
"Sure. Yeah!", he replied.
She was slightly tipsy from the whiskey in her hand.
She continued, "Why? Don't you need someone to pose
as your girlfriend this year?"
Then he answered, "No, there is no need for that
anymore..."
