Romantic Guy

                             Once upon a time, there was once a guy who was very much in love with this girl. The romantic guy folded 1.000 pieces of papercranes as a gift to his girl. Although, at the time he was just a small executive in his company, his future doesn't seem too bright, they were very happy together. Until one day, his girl told him she was going to Paris and will never come back. She also told him that she cannot visualize any future for the both of them, so let's  go their own ways there and then heartbroken, the guy agreed.
                            When he regained his confidence, he worked hard day and night, just to make something out of himself. Finally with all these hard work and with the help of friend, this guy had set up his own company. " You never fail until you stop trying ." he always told himself. " I must make it in life!". One rainy day, while this guy was driving, he saw an elderly couple sharing an umbrella in the rain walking to some destination. Even with the umbrella, they were still drenched. It didn't take him long to realize those were his ex-girlfriend's parents. With a heart in getting back at them, he drove slowly beside the couple, wanting them to spot him in his luxury saloon. He wanted them to know that he wasn't the same anymore, he had his own company, car, company, etc. He had made it in life!

                             Before the guy can realize, the couple was walking towards a cemetery, and he got out of his car and followed them and he saw his ex-girlfriend, a photograph of her smiling sweetly as ever at him from her tombstone and he saw his precious papercranes in a bottle placed beside her tomb. Her parents saw him. He walked over and asked them why this had happened. They explained that she did not leave for France at all. She was stricken ill with cancer. In her heart, she had believed that he will make it someday, but she did not want her illness to be his obstacle therefore she had chosen to leave him.
                              She had wanted her parents to put his papercranes beside her, because if the day comes when fate brings him to her again he can take some of those back with him. The guy just wept.
