Tree
=====
The reason I'm called Tree is because I'm good at painting
trees. Over time, I started to use a tree on the right
hand corner as a trademark for all my watercolor paintings.
I dated five girls when I was in Pre-University. There's
one girl whom I really love a lot. However, I never dared
to woo her. She doesn't have a pretty face, a good figure
or outstanding charm. She is just a very ordinary girl.
I like her. I really like her. I like her innocence.
I like her frankness. I like her cuteness. I like her
intelligence and her fragility. The reason why I did not
woo her is because I felt somebody so ordinary like her
is not a good match for me. I'm afraid that all the good
feelings I have for her will vanish after we get together.
I'm also afraid that the gossips that follow after we
get together will hurt her. I felt that if she's meant
to be my girl, she will be mine ultimately and I don't
have to give up everything just for her. The last reason
made her accompany me for three years. She watched me
go after different girls as I made her heart cry for three
years.
She bumped into us when I was kissing my second girlfriend.
She was embarrassed but managed to smile and urged us
to continue before running off. Her eyes were swollen
like walnuts the next day. I pretended not to know what
caused her tears but laughed at her for her swollen eyes
for the whole day. She cried alone in the classroom after
everyone left for home. She didn't notice me returning
from soccer training to get something from the classroom.
I watched her cry for an hour or so.
My fourth girlfriend didn't like her. They once got into
a quarrel. Based on her character, I know she's not the
type that will start the quarrel. However, I still sided
with my girlfriend. I shouted at her and her eyes were
filled with shock. I didn't care about her feelings and
walked off with my girlfriend. In spite of the incident,
she still continued laughing and joking with me like nothing
has ever happened the next day. I know that she's very
hurt but she didn't know that my heartache is as bad as
hers.
I asked her out when I broke up with my fifth girlfriend.
After going out for a day, I told her that I have something
to tell her. Coincidentally, she told me that she has
something to tell me too. I told her about my break up
and she told me about her new boyfriend. I know her new
boyfriend. He has been pursing her for a while. He is
a very cute guy full of energy, lively and interesting.
His pursuit has been the talk of the school.
I can't show her how much my heart aches but can only
smile and congratulate her. When I reached home, the heartache
was so strong that I couldn't tolerate it. It's like a
heavy rock on my chest. I couldn't breathe. I wanted to
shout but I couldn't. Tears rolled down my cheeks and
I broke down and cried. At that point of time, I thought
about the number of times I had seen her cry for the man
that didn't acknowledge her presence.
During graduation, I read a sms in my hand phone. It
was sent ten days ago when I broke down and cried. I haven't
read it since then.
It says, "Leaf’s departure is because of Wind
pursuit. Or because Tree didn't ask her to stay."
