THE BEST
206 Words
A boy and a girl were deeply in love. The girl once asked the boy, “Do you think I am pretty?”
The boy answered, “No.”
The girl was disappointed with his answer, but she asked the next question anyway, “Do you want to be with me forever?”
The boy said “No” again.
The girl’s eyes filled up with tears. “Will you be sad if I leave you?” she asked.
The boy said, “No.”
The girl decided to walk away. She had just turned when the boy caught her arm and turned her tear-streaked face towards himself.
He said, “You asked if you were pretty, and I said no because you are not just pretty, but you are the most beautiful woman on this planet. You asked me if I wanted you, and I said no because I don’t want you, but I need you like we need oxygen. You asked me if I would be sad if you left me, and I said no because I will no longer be alive when you leave me.”
When she heard these passionate words, the girl smiled through her tears and hugged the boy tightly.
