Too Short But It Was Gold

A Story by Dem

It is basically my true story

It was begun when I was installing the f*****g yellow chatting app. In the blue evening, I received a text from someone and he looked so discreet.

“Hey! Where are you?”, he began the conversation.

“Hi!” I replied and know him where was I.

Since, he did not attach his profile picture, I asked him to send his picture. Then, he sent me his picture. “Thanks, you look very nice”, I tried to give him a compliment. I also sent mine to him and he said “You are nice too, anyway how old are you?” he tried to explore me further. In short, he was surprised that we were coeval. Moreover, he tried to keep the conversation well organized by asking me “Are you a university student?” and I answered yes.

“Which university are you in?”, he seemed like I needed to answer it in details. In short, it was surprisingly to know that our university was quite closed, it was just opposite from my university.

Next in importance, he gave me his Whatsapp number, in case to know me in depth. Finally, we moved the conversation and started to talk other things. Since he was very busy with his an architect-project, he was active to chat me in the midnight; he was like a night owl. One night, he texted me again and he asked me to meet with him.

“I do not have any spare time to hang out, if you want to meet me, you may go to college together with me”, I replied his text.

“Okay, I will be on the shelter bus near shopping mall at 7 a.m.”, he really wanted to meet me.

On the shelter bus, I stopped riding my bike and I saw him smiled at me. He looked so manly, since he wore his architect uniform.

“Hey, good morning Dem!”, He was greeting me so kindly.

“Hey, morning! Nic, I will be in a rush because the class will be begun early”, I was so happy to see his oriental face.

After we arrived at his college, he said something to me, “let me know if you have finished the class, take care!” Then he went to his class from the university’s gate.

We both started our class then…………………………………………………………….

“Nic, I just finished my class”, I conveyed him after the class.

“Me too, have you had lunch?”, he asked me.

“Hem not yet, how about you?”, I replied him.

“Okay, go to my campus, then we go to shopping mall to find a food”, he asked me to have lunch together.

Then, I went to his college to pick up him. In shorts, after we arrived at the shopping mall, he asked my past; he was very curious about me. He asked my ex, my family and my friends too. Remember that, as he fell in love with me; I tried to emphasize our relationship. He stated that he wanted to be my boyfriend and started a journey with me. I was so glad at that time like being offered a thousand sweets. Then we enjoyed our spicy chicken wings. After having lunch, we went home.

As he was very busy with his mock-up project, he did not have a time to hang out with me. Obviously, I was fine, since he texted me regularly. Almost one month we survived though virtual chatting, it was just fine for me.

Suddenly, he blocked my number and stopped to chat with me. I did not know what happened to him. As my Instagram account was not blocked yet, I tried to receive the reason he did it to me.

“My mom reads our conversation on my phone when I fall asleep” he finally clarified it.

“I do not understand it can occur” I could not hold my tears.

“I’m sorry we cannot continue our relationship, I prefer to stop here” he apparently hurt my heart.

“We may stop our relationship but you do not need to do this; blocking my number, you seem hiding from me, it is just f*****g way”, I was upset.

“I am getting panic, therefore, I stop to chat you and block your number”, he looked like a child.

“I’m sorry for this, you may say that I’m f*****g a*s hole boy and you need to know we cannot be together and thank-you for everything”, he justified his decision.

“Okay I’m fine if you want to be like this, but you need to know your reason cannot be processed in my brain; it does not make sense”. I ended the conversation.

“I’m sorry Dem”, he really closed the conversation.

Several months later

In the very early morning, while I was working on my internship report-paper, I got notification from him. He sent me direct message through Instagram.

“Hey Dem! How are you? Why do you stay up late?” he asked me.

“I’m fine, I need to finish my paper because I need to submit this morning,” I answered.

“I’m sorry for what I have done for you! I realize that this is my fault”, he tried to create good atmosphere.

“I prefer not to see you again”, I was crying.

“Okay my black, but I want to tell you I still love you”, he called my name as black, since I had a dark skin.

“I want to tell you something, I want to let you go, maybe watch a movie?” he seemed offer me a chance.

“I cannot on the weekdays, hem maybe on Sunday”, I confirmed him.

“Really? Okay I’ll be there at 4 p.m. see you there!” he asked me to go to the shopping near our house.

On Sunday, I was waiting him in front of the coffee shop. Then, he touched my back and called my name. I saw he was very happy to meet me. He suddenly embraced while we went to the cinema. After buying a movie ticket, we had a dinner in the Japanese restaurant. Suddenly, he got a phone-call; it looked so urgent and I guessed he got a phone-call from his mom. Sadly, he needed to go home soon, since he had a problem in his house.

“I’m sorry Dem, I need to go home soon because I have a problem. I know it makes you be hurt for several times but I really must go home”, he was very sad.

“What? We have booked the movie ticket already! Well, okay you go home now!” To be honest, I did not want him to go home.

Then, we left that place and went home. When I just arrived at home, I got a phone-call from him.

“Dem, I’m sorry, I do not have any intention to leave you but it is urgent” he was regretful.

“Okay, I’m fine!” I ended the calling.

At that time, I tried to forget him even I did not want to reply his text again. It is obvious to say; I cannot forget him until now. Even, he is rare to text me again. He sometimes asked me to meet with him but I still consider it.

As he still follows my Instagram, every times he looks my Snapgram, it makes me not to be able to forget him. However, he was complex in my sight, it was just too short relationship, he always becomes my privileged person. I just want to tell you that I still love you. I’m still waiting for you….
