got something good

A Story by kurdapiaful

Lesson I have learned these past days :)

It’s almost 7mos. now since I let this man stay in my life.

. . . we differ in a loooot of things, in a looot of aspects in life " he’s really too old for me, and that means, I am too young for him and he has gone through enough about life. He’s time-bounded, and I am spontaneous. He’s very prim and proper, and I am this happy-go-easy-girl. He’s very witty, and I am just an average type. He’s old, and I am pretty young lady. He’s a traveler, and I am a high-spirited wanderer and delirious adventurer. He sets plans and dates, and I am this just-go-with-the-flow type.

I was never attracted to him until I got to know him. . .

He’s one-of-a-kind, he’s such a wonderful person, and it’s never impossible to like him, to want him. . . er, or to fall for him :’/

The chance that we gave to each other was a choice, and that choice will never be wasted nor be taken for granted. . . We met by fate, that is for sure!

Sometimes, he asked me why did I let him stay. . . I don’t really have enough reasons, but there’s this certain reason I’ve been holding on to. . . That, when I got something good, I gotta have to enjoy and make the most of it. And he’s good enough for me, why would the heck I’ll find someone else. I know, I can’t be with him for the rest of my life, and I value every moment I am with him and I want to make him feel that he’s being appreciated and valued, and well, he really is

Seasons change, people change, that is the thing I have no control over. Time comes we’ll bid our goodbyes, and I will eventually, be hurt. But the hurt would never be unexpected, and I wouldn’t be surprised if I’d be. He’s a piece of me that completes the puzzle of my life, and I know, my life would never be the same without him in my life. And I know, no one like him would ever fill and fit that empty space, but life must always have to go on. . .

He will always remain inside of me, that is I am certain of.

Underneath that nearly sagging skin is a young man who never fails to paint a smile on my face, even to the tiniest effort he’d exert.
