Sad Love Stories
Papercranes
There was a guy who was very much in love with
this girl. The 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 and his future doesn't seemed too bright,
they were very happy together. However one day,
his girl told him she is going to Paris and will
never come back. She also told him that she cannot
visualize any future for the both of them, so she
wanted to go separate ways there and then... The
guy was heartbroken but he agreed.
When he regained his confidence, he worked hard
day and night, slogging his mind and body just to
make a name for himself. Finally with plenty of
hardwork and the help of friends, he managed to
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 the 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.
He delibrately drove slowly beside the couple,hoping
they spot him in his luxury sedan. He wanted them
to know that he wasn't the same anymore. He had
his own company, car, condominium, etc. He had made
it in life!
Before he realized it, the couple was entering
a cemetary. He got out of his car and followed them.
There, he saw his ex-girlfriend. A photograph of
her smiling sweetly as ever at him from her tombstone.
He saw his precious paper cranes placed in a bottle
beside her tomb. Her parents saw him. He walked
over and asked them how did this happen. They explained
that she did not leave for France after all. She
was ill stricken with cancer. In her heart, she
believed that he will make it in life someday. However.
she did not want her illness to be his obstacle.
Therefore she chose 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 them back
with him. The guy wept miserably. 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.
The End.
A tragic story that perhaps happens only in the
movies. At the end of the day, money is money but
love is divine. In our quest for our material wealth,
take time to make time for our loved ones. There
will be a time when we have only memories to cling
to.
Take this weekend to show our "love"
to all that are close to us.
