Short story by @mercy1
I saw him today."That's Tomi" i said to myself.I walked up to him "Hi" i said.He turned to me and flashed those well arranged teeth that could make someone die and raise from dead.
"Hi Ashley,how are you?"
"I'm fine,how have you been?"
"I've been Okay,as you can see" He said almost Turning Around---as in,for me to see.
"I have to get going,take care Ashley" He walked away without looking back.
I walked to the other side of the road thinking about Tomi.Tomi is my childhood friend.His Mum was my Mum's Bestfriend and only friend.Because of this,i visit them often.And Sometimes when my Mum travels,i stay with them till her arrival.
Tomi is 4 years older than i am,and we were very close.
When i was 8 years old,Tomi asked me out.Funny? Yea,really funny.He told me he really liked me and wanted us to be extra-close.Of course,he wouldn't have mentioned `Date',its too straight-foward.i Was Confused and i asked "How?"
he moved closer to me and kissed me on the lips "This way." He replied.
The feeling was so Perfect and i agreed immediately.
i grew up having the feelings i don't understand with him.When i was age 15,i knew about love,i knew what it was all about.Then i realized i never loved Tomi,it was Lust all the way.Since then,i avoided him like Plague.
I Later decided to tell him.When i got to his house,he was obviously happy to see me.I held him
"Tomi let's break up."
"What? Ashley,Why?" he was shocked
i Explained to him that i have no feeling for him.He was Shattered,Sad and Scared.
To Him,i broke his heart.To me,i did what was Right,i don't want to give him false Hope.
Seeing him today,i noticed he tried really hard to get over me but i'm happy he finally got over me.
I know i did something bad,breaking someone's heart and deceiving him for years. So i patiently await my Karma. I hope it won't be too hard on Me.
The End
Its a short piece and I DEDICATE IT TO ALL WHOSE HEART HAVE BEEN BROKEN
Thanks for reading.
