Ten

So.. to continue the 10 year topic on a Valentine's Day, it was exactly this day 10 years ago that I met her.

Well, it was really a "met". I was merely looking for some random person to go to the valentine's dance with me. And somehow I asked her out while I know nothing about her except her name.

Funny that I can still clearly remember the moment that changed my life.. forever.

It was a bright cloudy afternoon, the lights were shining through the window as she sat beside the edge of it. It was an ESL classroom that I've never been to. She was moving her legs in the air back and forth as if she's really bored.

So I walked up and asked if she wants to go to the dance with me. She said yes. And I left.

I didn't even look her into the eyes. Well, not like she's going to look back anyways. We barely even know each other.


And it all started from something so random.

10 years later, she's in Taiwan, probably with someone else. I'm sitting here in office waiting for my next assignment to arrive.

What's going to happen in the next 10 years? I can't help to wonder.

I know, it's not going to help. I know, she's not my girl anymore. I know, this is probably not going to happen. I know, I can't change a thing sitting 30000 km away from her.

I know.

At least I think I do.
