The Truth

So, here's a story I wrote in secondary school. Hahahaha... please bear with my bad grammar and sentences. Cause my Beta is on afk. Tch. The story might be kindaaaaa really lame.. so yeaaaa. Enjoy.?

genre : Friendship and romance

            It started a few months back, when everything was perfectly fine and happiness surrounds me. It was just after the SPM examination, everyone felt so relieved and happy that the exam had finally been over. Most of us went to do a part time job to make use of our time or to increase the income of the family household. For me, it was more to experience what it feels like to be working. I got a job in a restaurant in a shopping mall nearby my house. My best friend, Sarah, she wanted to work with me as well but her parents did not allow her to do so. However, we would often meet each other in the shopping mall whenever I was taking a break.

            Sarah was a caring and nice friend, that was probably why she came to accompany me most of the time even though I was working. One day, there was a guy, a handsome and charming looking guy, who came to the restaurant. He had dark brown short hair which matched with his features, a pair of dark brown coloured eyes which seemed so mysterious. He had a very good body figures too, with the muscles on both of his arms that seemed he could protect his precious person and wide shoulders that seemed it could always be there for you to lean on. I was immediately attracted to him.

            He met my gaze and smiled innocently towards me. I could feel my face getting warmer as I knew I was definitely blushing really hard. I went to take his order and served him as swiftly and careful as I could because I absolutely do not want to be clumsy in front of him. The feeling of wanting to show him how good I was had taken over me. He seemed to be impressed by the way I handled the fully-packed restaurant without any mistakes. I glanced over and saw that his eyes were filled with amusement. After he finished his meal, he just stared at me for quite some time and only went pay for his meal. Unfortunately, Sarah wasn’t around for me to chat about him with her as she went on a vacation.

            That guy seemed to be around 20 years old or so. After that day, he came by to the restaurant most of the time. We often ended up chatting happily and we got closer to each other day by day. Each day passed as I hoped that I could be more than just his friend, each time I would wished that maybe we could be a couple and have a happy ending. I stopped my part time job for only one reason, I want to spend more time with him and not just during when I was having breaks. On the next day, I did not wear my working uniform but my outing clothes and went to the restaurant to look for him.

            At first, he looked really surprised and then he burst into laughters and said :”Your are really one interesting girl I’ve ever met.” I blushed and he seemed to notice that. We eventually became closer than before. Before this, we only talked about some minor stuff, his name is Jason and he is 21 years old. He gave me his phone number and I gave him mine willingly. He said that we should hang out more often and of course, I nodded my head, more than necessary as I was over the moon.

            Days went by like a drop of a hat, I started college with Sarah. Sarah knew what happened about our relationship but she became more worried as each day passed by. She would constantly remind me to be careful and never to let my guard down. She knew Jason became my boyfriend a few weeks back. One day, Jason asked me to meet up with his so called “friends”. They were actually a bunch of gangsters, I was shocked but he said he wanted to be honest with me and I believed him. Once Sarah knew about it, she scolded me, she told me not to hang out with him anymore and that I should break up with him as soon as possible. 

            However, I did not want to as I really like Jason, Sarah scolded me for being so idiotic. I really wanted things to work out, so I met Jason and asked him to quit the gangsters’ group and if his gang leader was to agree with it. He said that they were not bad and that they were actually a group of nice people. Sarah told me that they did bad things, her father who is a cop got multiple records of him. She said that Jason was going to use me to sell the drugs they had. I did not want to believe it, I wanted to trust Jason, he was the love of my life, I did not want to let him go. 

            One night, I told Sarah O was going to find Jason and his so-called “friends” to talk things out. Sarah wanted to stop me but I deliberately ignored her. I went to their gathering place and I caught them holding a bunch of packets filled with white powders which I suspected was heroine. I quickly snatched the packets that Jason was holding onto and threw them to the ground, begging him to leave the group. But everyone ended up chuckling or laughing out loud, including Jason. He said that since I saw everything, there was no need to hide anymore, he told me that he was the leader of those gangsters.  I could feel sudden chills went down my spine while my mind went blank. All I could think of was to run, I burst out the door trying to get as far away as possible. 

            Suddenly, I ran into Sarah around the corner and she took me by the hand and we ran. She said she knew I was too stubborn to listen and that she had called her dad with some policemen as a back-up located just outside. The boys were chasing up, just as we were reaching upfront with the policemen, Sarah pushed me away. I turned and saw Jason holding a knife stabbing Sarah on her chest. I was too shocked to react, I stayed very still and tears started to roll down my eyes. 

            It was supposed to be a happy ending, the policemen caught the gangsters and found the drugs but Sarah did not manage to survive the attack and she died all because of me. I had lost the love of my life and my best friend in the world. To tell the truth, somewhere in my heart I always knew that Jason wasn’t just a normal guy but I did not want to believe it and so I lost my best friend as a consequence. Tears rolled down my cheeks as I realized every word she said was true.

The End

          There’s a boy, who thinks that love beat them all. Whatever future he might choose and whatever things that might bring him down, he had always believe if his lover will be there, he’ll make it through despite what it is. He was always showing his love for others with no restriction at all.

          But after both of them got hurt countless times, when each cut is deeper than ever. Somehow they had learn to build up walls around their precious hearts. No longer baring their hearts out to their love ones, they started to shut themselves down. But somewhere deep down, they held on to the tiniest hope of light, hoping someday it’ll be okay. That they’ll find the right ones, even when their hope have been shattered far too many times.

Will we ever say the words we're feeling
Reach down underneath and tear down all the walls
Will we ever have our happy ending?
Or will we forever only be pretending?
Will we always, always, always be pretending

          Fate led them to meet each other, both of them knew instantly what they’ve been through when they stared into each other’s eyes. Even though they got close to each other and fell in love, but somehow it still seems far away. There was a time when they gave up hoping and started to pretend. Even when they have feelings for each other, they pretended to not feel a thing. 

Will we ever say the words we're feeling
Reach down underneath and tear down all the walls
Will we ever have our happy ending?
Or will we forever only be pretending?
Will we always, always, always be

They knew they were afraid of falling again, they’re afraid to be hurt once again, they’re afraid they won’t be able to find themselves back whole again. So they’ll always be pretending. Neither did they know both of them were wondering if they even get to find their happiness or will they have to keep pretending. To pretend that they way they were now was fine and that they’re happy about it, that they’re consent with everything going around.

“Will you hold me close.”

“Will you bring my pieces back together.”

“Or are you going to break them further apart.”

“Do we have to continue pretending.”

“To pretend we have no feelings for each other.”

“To pretend we don’t feel a thing.”

“To pretend we don’t want that embrace and that warmth.”

“Will we keep out secrets with us and keep pretending.”

“Or will we find our happy ending.”

Keeping secrets safe
Every move we make
Seems like no ones letting go
And it's such a shame
Cause if you feel the same
How am I supposed to know?

They’re hearts wondered the same thing and each day they questioned themselves. They wondered if they really did find the right person, because they were afraid if they get hurt once more they will fall apart. Both were afraid to take the first step. Without the first step, they will know nothing about what will happen.

Will we ever say the words we're feeling
Reach down underneath and tear down all the walls
Will we ever have our happy ending?
Or will we forever only be pretending?
