Still can't say, 'I Love You'. (oneshot)
The three difficult words......

The three difficult words......

It’s the best feeling you can have, you know what?!!!! To fall in love and to be able to say the most beautiful words in the world, “I LOVE YOU”, to someone who you care about and truly love!!...the best feeling, indeed!!!

....sighs.....

“I wish I could tell that to you, I wish I was stronger. I wish I could say those words at the top of my voice so that, ....so that everyone in this world could hear and feel how much I love you and how much I care for you and what I feel about you, I wish you were by my side, close to me.. next to me.”

“ It may sound like excuses but if you, actually were beside me, I think I could have said it because it’s a fact that, I love the you, who is this special to me, who I love this much, the only one for me, my love and my life, my exclusive-god-send-angel!!!”

“I could brag, about my love for you, to the whole world!!...if only, you were beside me”

...sighs....

“That day when you saved me from that gang of retards....and protected the maiden within me...I learnt for the first time, what this thing called ‘love’ was!!”

“ I decided that, I’ll be yours and will only love you, for the rest of my life”.

“....yo-you too, love me right?...”, the girl said in her small trembling voice, stuttering...but her face, it felt like it had something else to say, she had this enigmatic stare, as if, into nothingness...with eyes of a dead fish, she gestured, as if, asking to the photo she held. It felt like, to her, the man in the photo she held was actually sitting beside her.

Her innocent smile gave a sinister feeling...the air around her was definitely not that of a girl in her teens....she was just 16...still her forehead held dark clouds........but still, the way she asked, not including the look on her face, was that of a teenager who was experiencing the first ‘spring’ of her life!!

She was seriously asking the photo and waited for a dozen of breath, just like a child, waiting for it to answer.......

But, alas!!, the answer didn’t come. How can a photo, possibly talk?!....

But, she still waited and waited..... time flew and the dark night changed to a sunny day and by now, the lack of response was, I think, too much for her to handle.

She feverishly took the photo close to her heart and continued, “....why aren’t you saying something?...please, please say something!!”

“.............”, but still, there was no response.

“....are you angry at me?......hey.....I promise I’ll never betray you, I will make sure that you are never sad...I won’t even ask you to answer me...so please, I am begging you, come back, come back to me. Don’t leave me alone in this scary place.....I am scared, scared of living in this place all alone, without you...please don’t go.....pl-please...”, she started to sob.

She was at her wits' end........unable to take this silence, more than she already had, she jumped off the building,....her last thoughts, “I’ll love you even after I die, you will get lonely there, right?!! I won’t make you wait, more than you already have....just a bit, I am coming to you, my love”, she had a devilish face and an evil smile on it.

...........................

At the same time, in a graveyard nearby, a funeral was held.

It was the funeral of the man on the photo, the girl had.

“I heard that it was a suicide.”, X said.

“Yes, I heard that too.”, Y said.

“It seems like he was being stalked by a lunatic.”, Z affirmed.

“The pranks were getting darker by the day, blank calls and life threatening notes to his family, it seems he was cornered and pressurised to death”, the police stated.

“Unable to take it, he committed suicide. A normal civilian, age 46, no criminal records, passionate about his work and the type to dote on family.....RIP.”....that’s what the newspaper said.

“What will happen to his children and wife? He was such a good man too...poor soul”, X mourned....
