The Red Light Brought Us Together... Did It?

Part 1


Once upon a time,

As I was jogging on my way down a common road, as usual. Headphones plugged into my ears, as usual. My favorite music from the MP3, as usual. And I get stopped by the fateful red light, as usual. As I stood there, I saw this beautiful girl, with shoulder-length hair, a little short for my usual taste, but still cute. She got my attention, and she knew it. I found her charming at first sight.

She was walking towards me but from a different direction, then, out of the blue, she turns and joins me. Surprising! She introduces her self, we exchanged names and all that. She says she’s from the same school as I am. I being all silly, said something like; "well how come I’ve never seen u before? I mean it’s hard to miss a girl with such a beautiful face like yours." she smiled. My heart raced. And yes, it was a pretty poor try. But I tried… And yes, the traffic light was STILL red. Oh wait, NOW they turn green, so I'm forced to say goodbye. I told her I'll meet her in school the next day and ran ahead. Wanting to look back the whole time…

It was Tuesday morning, and to my surprise, same girl that I met at that fateful red light was approaching me from behind, she was smiling. I smiled back. She came and sat beside me. We talked and talked until the school bell rang. YES, we were in school. And that ladies and gentleman, was the day that I enjoyed going to school. The next day comes, and we talked some more, only this time I asked for her number. She gives a positive response by biting her bottom lip while taking out a piece of paper from her pocket with her name and number already written on it. She must have known I was going to ask. Damn it! Was it that obvious?

Well anyway, when I got back, the first thing I looked for was my hand phone. No, no messages. So I begin writing one. It went like, "Hey! It's me Khal. You back from school yet? I was wondering if i could buy you a drink, you know, have a chat, get to know each other a lil bit better... what do you say?" another poor try, but hell, give Casanova a chance.

She replied, "Oh, Hey Khal. Yeah, just got back, really tired, school finished late. Anyway, a drink, I'd love to, but, I don't know, how about a walk together instead?"

Then I said, "Ah, yeah sure, that'll be great! Say around 5.30? I'll be waiting. :)"

And she said, "Yup, see you soon!"

Ahh bliss~ Heaven can wait, I’m meeting an angel.

She was a little late, but I didn't mind waiting. Anyway, it went well, very well to the point she held my hand while crossing the busy road of that fateful red light. It was different, it was peaceful and it felt comfortable. After crossing the road, I wondered why our hands were still attached. That's right, we just couldn't let go… I smiled as I realized this.

Three days later...

I asked her “THE” question. I think it went something like, "hey, I was wondering, would y... you...." I was nervous, my heart was pounding, I stammered a little, but I continued. "you know, would you like to be... my... girlfriend?"

Awkward silence…

...... No reply.......


And all I could utter was, "Just think about it okay, let me know."


When I arrived home, there on my phone, it said 'One New Message'. She gives me a “Yes.” So that's it. This is it. This is my story about the beautiful girl I met at the red light, the girl that I can now call as my girlfriend. I love her with all my heart, and I hope you, the reader, feel’s the same about you're other half. I would love to finish this story but the tale has only begun. So for now, thanks for reading, and please, be kind and comment, and to my girl, I love you so much! As I said, this story has just begun… only time will tell of its ending… So stay tuned, eat well, and be healthy… I will continue this story, but I am going to go and live it first. See you around!






Part 2


Dear loyal friends that are kind enough to read the second half of my short story "The Red Light Brought Us Together". I'd like to state first that the second half is a bit more sad than the first part. A couple of tissues might be necessary :P


Well, I'll start off by saying me and my 'girlfriend' lived a reasonably happy life together. How unfortunate that the relationship did not work out very well and i was forced to put an end to it. Allow me to explain...

After a few weeks into the relationship, i realized that the way she was acting around me was quite different to how my previous girlfriends were. At first i told myself it was just her, you know, she's just like that, but my heart said something and my mind said another.


I'd like to consider myself a rather good judge of people. I can read people pretty well and i have a story to prove it. This story.

So as i was saying, i had second thoughts about how i felt about her, simply because of the way she was acting. Let me tell what this 'feeling' is. A horrible thought deep inside my little brain said that this beautiful girl, my beautiful girl, was not only mine...

So instead of asking her or anything like a guy with a slightly bigger brain and smaller ego than i would do, i thought i would be a smart ass and do it my own way. The SLIGHTLY riskier way.

The message wrote.. "hey, i have to be completely honest with you now. I can't go on playing this game. I love you so so much, but, i have to put an end to this relationship. As hard as it is to say goodbye to my gorgeous little baby, i just have to do it. I am so so sorry. I really am". And i assure you, every word in that message was from my heart.

Wait a minute now, i know you want to exit this window because your thinking "what a total jerk! he doesn't even know she was cheating on him!" well i dint say i was done either now did i?? :P :D

So a week or two pass and i still dint say a word about the true reason why i left her. It's just not really my style going up to the girl and asking her "ummm, did you cheat on me??" I wait until she can't take it anymore and says to me, "ummm, i cheated on you." Here's what the message wrote...

"Khal, i just can't go on like this. I have to tell you something. I feel so guilty knowing that you don't know about something..."

Yeah, i had NO CLUE! anyway, my reply "Oh. About what?"

"During the whole time i was with you... I was with another guy too. I had another boyfriend." and some more shit that's not very important. I can't remember exactly what she said so yeah... And to prove my point about me judging people well and stuff.. yeah, there's not much more to say is there?

So it was a heart breaking time for the both of us. But the worst is yet to come... ;)
Ladies n Gentlemen, Chicks and Dudes, if you don't know, I'm not a very 'forgiving' person when it comes to 'unforgiving' matters. We all aren't. Some of you guys would find the other boyfriend that she had and lie him down nicely in hospital in the "ICU" section, some of you might cry like a wimp. But where does that get you? what good does it do to anyone? It never has anything to do with the one that was in the wrong! the girl!

So what i did was, send a nice and understanding message saying something like; "Oh, that's okay dear, i forgive you. I understand why you did it. It's ok." make some bullshit up, you know, make her feel your okay and that your not mad at her for doing something UNFORGIVABLE. *devil smile*

And once she is convinced you too are fine and good friends now, YOU make her fall for YOU! That's right, go a step ahead. Pretend that you actually still love her. And if she responds to your sweet messages, you play hard to get and let her chase after you. And wait until she wants you so badly. . . that's when you get your revenge. the part that makes you smile from ear to ear. (at least it does for me) :D

You basically have her heart in you hands. It's up to you if you are a desperate bastard ask her out and wait till she cheats on you again, but if you have a small yet creative and kinda smart brain like me, you nicely place her heart at the end of your shoe, position it properly, and you shove it up her ass! (not literally)

You CRUSH it! You say the worst things possible until you are satisfied, and hey, i got my satisfaction. What goes around comes around does it not?? So i was just helping Karma a little. So it has one less thing to worry about. *wink*

So yeah, i know you want an encore rite now, you want another of these very 'sweet' stories of mine, so call some playgirl bitch to come mess with my heart. :D i don't mind! haha. I'm kidding. I'd just like to say that, i do not choose to be this person, and i am not this person (a heart breaker) i have had 9 girlfriends so far and i am good friends with ALL 9 of them. :) but the tenth one... the ONLY one that cheated on me... i think she'll pass.

So PLEASE people!! PLEASE DON'T CHEAT!!! Stay faithful to one person! that's all i ask of you. The reader, that's reading this, think to yourself.. did you ever cheat? if you did, please realize that this might happen to you, or maybe not, but do YOU feel happy? would you feel happy if your partner cheated on you? just think about it.

Anyway, i am going to prepare myself for some rather interesting comments, so please do comment! Take care! Thank you very much for reading! comment!! but most importantly, DON'T CHEAT!
