I read a love story sent from my friend through friendster. It is in chinese so I took the time to translate it. The story goes:
There was a guy and a gal and they both love each other very much. The guy folded one thousand cranes and put them in inside the gal's room and told her he will love her forever. The gal was so touched and drop her tears, the guy though she was so touched that why she cried and never ask her is there any problem. The very next day the gal told him that she has changed her heart for someone else , a very rich guy who owns a benz, a bungalow and is the owner of a very big and famous company. This company is known as the Lim company which deals in electronics. The fine young man appear infront of the guy and tell him not to bother the gal anymore because the things he cannot provide for her, He can. This guy who the gal's lover was devesated to hear a news from her new lover and not from her. He knows he is poor and cannot provide her with anything and therefore he back out and left. No one knows of his whereabouts, and the gal was known that she went to paris with the rich guy and was living a happy life. 3 years later the poor guy appeared and this time he is wearing a suit, looks like a very successful businessman. It was known that during the 3 years the poor guy whose name is Jaki was actually trying to invent something out. His father was the famous well known scientist and he himself possess a very intelligent mind. There was a breakthough he manage to finish a theory which his father never managed to complete. He was suddenly famous and now he is of almost equal status as the rich guy before. Jaki even though was away for 3 years he never forget about her at all. All the 3 years are torture to him , what kept him going was the though of maybe showing what he can do to her and letting her know it her loss who don want him. He came back and tried to look for her but he failed. Just now when he was about to give up, he suddenly thouh of a favourite place which they hang out at last time. He went there and he was quite shocked because the tree which they alway hang out at was hanging with the 1000 cranes he folded for her. He was puzzled and decide to find out what has really happened. While he was looking, came along a little boy who carry with him a gardening tools appears to be taking care of the tree. He decide to ask the little boy about the cranes as in do he know where the cranes come from. The little boy said to him that the cranes come from a pretty gal 3 years ago. The pretty gal give the boy instructions to put the crane and also paid him money to take care of the tree. Jaki began to ask where is that gal now the boy say he don't know ever since 3 years ago that was the only time he met her. After saying this and do what he is instructed to do he left the tree left Jaki pondering. Jaki is not stupid he begin to link back why is the tree decorated with the cranes and why is she crying at the time when he give her the cranes. He began to doubt of the story that rich man has came up with and also the tales that they live happily at paris. He made a trip to paris to find the rich guy. The rich guy seen Jake become so successful was also happy for him. He began to tell him what really happened. The rich guy bring Jaki to a place, the cementry. He was stun and puzzled why did he bring him there. And to his horror he saw her name on the tomb and on the tomb lies a crane. As he recalled he counted the cranes on the trees there was only 999 left one. So he finally linked everything together and see the one lying on tombstone. The rich guy said the tree is you and her favourite place, even though how much I would like to be with her but then I can tell she has only you in her heart. I didn't force her to be with me, and we never did get together. I got to know her in the hospital. She got an uncurable cancer at that time, I pity her wanted to her with all I could but she refused me. You know she request one thing of from me that is to get someone to look after the tree. The small boy you saw is actually I paid him to do all those things. Right after you disappear she fell into a deep coma and before she died she was calling out to your name. Now you know the truth, I am happy you finally become someone but sad at the same time because she is dead. Jaki after hearing this news was stoned to the ground, dumbfolded and very sad. So sad that no word is there in the dictonary can decribe his feelings at that point of time. It began to rain, those rain are like blood he is shedding. The pain of loss he began to knee down infront of her tombstone and cried.
Well this story is not exactly the version I read, as I took the liberty to change some parts of the story lol. Anyway it really is quite sad to know that someone you love actully love you too but because of some reason cannot be together. She don want to be a burden to him decided to spend the rest of her life alone. Imgaine the pain and suffering both has gone through. I sometimes wonder is it really that hard to have a simple relationship? Is it really really that hard and complicated? Remember my pervious post, as I mention a dark storm has gone? I think perhaps it a mirage the dark storm was never gone or in fact it is alway present. Is there really a need to fold out and not even a friend anymore? Hai I guess there are some things can't be helped, I wanted to help however it alway doesn't seem to follow my script or will go according to what I think it will be. Are we man really that hard to understand woman ? Even more she is the one who you loved, is it even harder ? Perhaps I think the understanding is not enough for both parties. Perhaps there are other issues which never surfaced before. Whatever it is what matters isn't it the fact that you love each other very much ? Sorry I am so emotional again well perhaps it an experience I have learnt so far. From these two friends I seen, I finally knew something. It was never easy to be in a relationship, needless to say maintaining it. For one I can say he has never put in efforts in trying to maintaining the relationship. He must be thinking since there are people helping him, he surey can make it. Then I have to say this, if you don try to put in any effort don expect any flower to bloom. A very simple logic, how much care you put into taking care the flower seed will show when the flower bloom. Alway expecting others to help you take care of the flower seed you can see the flower will bloom but at the efforts of others what is there to be proud of. Please if you are not serious in a rls then don start it in the first place. When a party has devoted all her time in just to get a such attutide I don think it is really fair. For the other hai I think perhaps it a misunderstanding. I know you two love each other very much, perhaps the guy has fault I agree but then not to the extend of sentencing him to death right. I mean I undersatnd trust is very important here however it is not like he did something really really bad and try to keep from you. I know I know whatever he has done has done can't be any excuse to help furthermore it happen more than once. I can understand your feelings perhaps if possible all I ask is of giving one more and one last chance. Think about the memories you two had, think about whatever you two has done. I think it is worth it to give another shot don't you think so too ?
Lastly I hereby really wish to see this dark cloud scattered away and hopefully the two friends can really attain what they really wanted to have.

Oh well I guess the stormy weather is out of the way already for them even though there is still some small quarrels here and there but then I think should be alright now. Bascially someone ask me about this question well how your school ? And did you manage to find someone you like ? Eh with regards to that question I guess pretty obvious isn't it ? I guess my fate is not here yet even though have someone in mind won't necessary drive me to action anything. I basically have lost it I guess the will to find someone I like. Perhaps can say my heart is dead, some may say why give up so easily. Some may suggest only now for the time being only don worry she will appear some day.
Ya some day don know how many people have been telling me that haha guess I am being skeptical but I believe it is the truth. Anyway enough talking about me, just glad my friend's problem is solved and hopefully it will stay the way she wanted it to be.
Tag replies:
Candy: No worries man I will surely tag your board lol
evilgui: Fianlly you wanted to explain something better clear it up before it become even worse.

Well recently there has been some things happening, let start by first explaining why I decide to lock up this blog. I have invited only a few friends to read this blog. First of all I really don wish some people to read my blog so I made this decision. Some may ask who are they oh well let just say some people who I don wish to say. Secondly a friend of mine started her relationship some time in January however this guy doesn't seem to be able to meet her expectations. You all might be wondering is she a demanding girl ? Or is he really that insensetive ? Seriously both parties I got talk to I can't say the girl is really demanding afterall what a girl wants from a guy is just attention, affection. The problem is he just don't get his priorities right, he been placing friend first compare to her gf. Erm I do try to tell him on this before but he doesn't seem to get through. Maybe he is really simple minded and because of his actions she get so hurt. I standing at the side I see it very clearly I know what is happening but when I try to help it doesn't seem to be able to do anything. I know what she wants and she is just asking for the basic a bf should be doing. However the bf of hers I really have no idea what is he thinking for once you might think he is really serious for her but suddenly he can just suprise you with another stupid action of his.
I think at first maybe he is serious for her but then he just don know how to express himself or financially he cannot be supportive in this. Money do play an important role however if he cannot be supportive in this area there are many other things he could do to improve. However he alway don like to put any effort in this from what I see I begining to think he is trying to find reasons to push her off. Some things he could have done but he just don want to do it. I don know why or is this just his way of dealing in a relationship. From her point of view it looks like he is not serious for her at all and that is really hurtful to her. I chatted with her and to hear to crying on this issue not once , not twice but many times. I feel so sad and sorry for her too however if it is so painful then you all must be thinking why not just let go. There might be better guys out there for her that is the best solution for her isn't it ? Why bother to teach a dog a new tricks when you can buy one which has learnt it. Ok not very good expression here but the theory is correct. A bf who needs to be taught how to be a bf then that guy is really not suitable for her. In my point of view I really wish to stand on her side and stop defending him, but if I do that I scare I am like destroying a relationship. She ask me this why do you care so much ? I really have no idea on how to explain this, I really care as a friend.
Take another friend for an example, this friend of mine is one of my closest friend in singapore. He likes a girl but he tends to do wrong things and hurt her in the process. I know they both like each other so I would alway stand and defend him hoping they won't fall out because of some small issues which can be solved easily. In this case I see some similaries here even though not totally the same I would still hope they won't break up because of an issue which can be solved easily. However a fish without water will still die, I can save the fish once, or twice can't expect me to be guarding at the bank to save the fist forever. I don wish to be the one killing the fish but if the fish is meant to be killed then I rather it be killed naturally instead of man made. I standing at the side I would rather save something then killing it. Hope this would somehow explain my actions and hope this would be clearer to you if you are reading my blog.
Lastly I would wish that you don think too much about this, and hopefully it has been resolved. There are still many things to look out for and there are still many wonderful thingss just waiting to be happened. After a heavy storm what would one expect to see ? The answer is vey simple 7 beautiful colours will alway show up in the sky aka rainbow. Therefore the darkest period is only a transaction after that will follow up with something good and nice. Hope after reading this post might make you feel better. Remember to keep a smile on your face, life itself is already very hard and tough with so many work , homework, assignments. I would rather smile and take on the day rather than gloomy and dull whole day. A beautiful view exist as long as one is in good mood. When one is in bad mood, seeing a beautiful sun set can also be an ugly one. You get the idea so smile is the key and move on your life.
