Iyada! (I don't like)
He ran after her when she left without a word after dinner.
“What’s wrong? You’ve been silent all this time. Did my parents say something that upset you?” He asked.
“No, they’re really nice…” she said honestly.
“but…” he lead on.
“But, they’re expecting marriage and stuff like that.” She admitted.
“Oh. I guess it’s just normal since they’ve been trying to get me to an omiai. Letting them meet a girl by myself must be a shock to them. They got carried away. It’s no big deal.”
“No. it is a big deal. I can feel it. I’m not really keen on this marrying stuff. I really like your parents but I don’t think I could give them what they want.”
“You mean…”they went silent for a while, “is that why, not once did I ever hear you say the words “I love you” to me?” he asked.
“No, that’s not it. It’s just that I’ve somewhat long given up on that love ever-after stuff.” then she added to herself, “or so I thought.”
“Then why did you agree to go out with me? How do you really feel about me? I always told myself that actions speak louder than words but those three words, I’ve always wanted to hear that from you.”
“Ano nee, I’ve read this somewhere that Love is a prelude to destruction and despair. I thought it’s just about right. I’ve seen lots of people self-destructed because of what they thought was love. Everyone thinks that their love is different but what’s the guarantee that such love would really last a lifetime? Love makes you think that surely that person is the one you want to spend the rest of your life with. So couples get married then suddenly somewhere along the way the love they once knew vanished into nothing or it slowly diminished without them even noticing as they deal with reality. They end up staying together just for the sake of being married or the obligation to their children. Well, they never thought how their children feels, watching their parents interact with each other like everyday people without any feeling of love whatsoever. Just like my parents. I’d rather see them get divorced than seeing them as if they were just forced by me to stay together, endure each other and in the process hurting each other.” She started to sob quietly.
“You still haven’t answered my question!” he didn’t know where she’s getting at.
“I never thought I would fall seriously for anyone but you’ve made me realized that there’s no helping it. Honestly, I don’t like this feeling. I feel like I’m getting greedy with every moment. I’m starting to dislike myself because I’m turning into the person I vowed never to become.” She choked on her words as tears welled up.
“What do you want to happen now?” he was confused, “Does she love me or not?”
“For now, I don’t know how to deal with it. I need some time to figure this out on my own.” She decided after a while and left.
“I see.”
