NEVER AGAIN

THE CRUSH

doing well for himself and having him always spend on her was something she enjoyed, her man is schooling abroad. She told herself she only wanted her ex crush friendship.

Months later, their friendship grew, the crush came on yet again, she felt the strong connection between them but she kept it to herself and promised to end whatever they have going on.

Michael wasted no time, he asked her to be his girlfriend, he confessed he had always loved her, he didn't approach her because she was underaged and it'd be child abuse if he did.

He also told her that he didn't hate her, he only avoided her because he knew she had a crush on him and he didn't want things to blow out of proportion.

A tear dropped from her eyes, her crush had been in love with her all this years, she knew she only suppressed the love she had for him, she didn't truly let him go.

Karen knew deep down she loved him and she still do, she broke up with her boyfriend and concentrated fully on him, he did the same or so she thought.

She gave him everything she has held tight over the years, her love, her soul, her body, remembering the days she bled on his bed, loosing her virginity to him and having no regrets.

She had always wanted a no s*x relationship, he agreed to her request, he told her he'd prove to her that s*x isn't what he wants from her.

He kept his words, she visited countless times and everything ends in smooches and cuddles, he did try a few times to change her mind but she held on to her decisions.

He didn't force her or get angry, he allowed her, she didn't get upset or disappointed either, she understood him, as a man, he has needs, she understands perfectly.

Their relationship blossomed into something beautiful, she handled her studies, work and love life effortlessly.

They spend more time together, it's few weeks to his birthday and she knows just the perfect gift for him, he would definitely love it, she thought smiling.

She arranged a surprise for him from SWEET MOMENTS, they are good at surprises. She did everything to make sure he enjoys his big day.

Her head on his lap, he received a call to come outside, she watched him walk out, she knew the surprise is here. She had earlier told him she doesn't have enough to get him a gift, to her surprise he didn't mind.

He came in smiling and giggling like a little boy, a beautiful sight to behold, she mentally gave herself a slight pat on her back, she knew she has done a good job.

He looked straight into her eyes, he was excited she's his, how much he loves her, he craved
