If asked what thing I can consider the most romantic a guy can give to a girl, I would say it would be a thoughtfully handwritten letter. The words need not to be so overly romantic for I don’t like cheesiness in any way. I just like the idea that someone thinks of you, and so he writes because the feelings that overwhelm his being are too much to bear and so he needs to have it expressed through words with a pen and a paper. I like love letters, poems, essays… everything written by a heart. I am writing this because I just remembered one random criminology student who chased me in school when I was a sophomore in college. I don’t know him actually, but he wrote me a letter expressing his affection towards me and was just handed to me by his classmate. I got scared instead of flattered, and the flowers I received ended up as an offering in the chapel because I don’t want to be seen bringing those around the school. I was freakingly plain and weird at seventeen, and I have this huge crush on an engineering student who plays a guitar. If the letter came from my university crush, I could have fainted, or ran screaming around the football field, or just cried because of too much joy (laughs). Oh well, love is such a game we just have to play. If it’s meant for you, then you will win it in the end no matter how many loses you’ve been into. I wish I can be the better player…better than you, him, and the rest of the men who would try to hit on me and ruin my world. I used to pretend that I don’t feel anything, that there was no such thing as love ever felt, or even just a little bit of pain and regrets ever laid in my heart… To hide from life’s cruel reality, I ran away. And when I run, nobody was brave enough to run after me. But no, I don’t need a hero. I don’t need someone to chase me and pull me back with him in the real word. I needed a person who would run…with me. And we will build a world of our own. Damn, this is too sweet… O_o
