Once upon a time, there was once a guy who was very much
in love with this girl. This romantic guy folded 1,000 pieces
of paper cranes as a gift to his girl. Although, at that
time he was just a small executive in his company, his future
doesn't seemed too bright, they were very happy together.
Until one day, his girl told him she was going to Paris
and will never come back. She also told him that she cannot
visualize any future for the both of them, so let's go their
own ways there and then... heartbroken, the guy agreed.
When he regained his confidence, he worked hard day and
night, slogging his body and mind just to make something
out of himself. Finally with all these hard work and with
the help of friends, this guy had set up his own company...
"You never fail until you stop trying." he always
told himself. "I must make it in life!"
One rainy day, while this guy was driving, he saw an
elderly couple sharing an umbrella in the rain walking
to some destination. Even with the umbrella, they were
still drenched. It didn't take him long to realize those
were his ex-girlfriend's parents. With a heart in getting
back at them, he drove slowly beside the couple, wanting
them to spot him in his luxury sedan. He wanted them to
know that he wasn't the same anymore. He had his own company,
car, condo, etc. He had made it in life!
Before the guy can realize, the couple was walking towards
a cemetery, and he got out of his car and followed them...and
he saw his ex-girlfriend, a photograph of her smiling
sweetly as ever at him from her tombstone... and he saw
his precious paper cranes in a bottle placed beside her
tomb. Her parents saw him. He walked over and asked them
why this had happened. They explained, she did not leave
for France at all. She was stricken ill with cancer. In
her heart, she had believed that he will make it someday,
but she did not want her illness to be his obstacle ...
therefore she had chosen to leave him.
She had wanted her parents to put his paper cranes beside
her, because, if the day comes when fate brings him to
her again he can take some of those back with him. The
guy just wept ...the worst way to miss someone is to be
sitting right beside them but knowing you can't have them
and will never see them again.
