Confessions...

"If you love someone, tell them ..... Before its too late for hearts are often broken by words left unspoken"

The story begins here.....

There was a girl named Amy and she is 8 years old. She was a girl who likes simple things. She had a very good life and nice parents too. One day, while playing outside in a fine sunny day, there, she met a boy. His name was James and his an 8 year old too. He was a typical boy who likes to tease you that will make you mad and then chase and beat him.

The boy always tease the girl so of course she gets mad and she always chase after him. Well, their argument lasted just in a short time. After that they became friends and classmates, they often meet at the fence whenever there are no classes, and they were always together like brothers and sisters it may seem. Amy found out that James was easy to talk with so she told all of her secrets to him and her dreams and he really listened quietly and always gave special attention to her.

So they went to high school together. They became really good friends, and she realized that she was starting to fall in love with him.

On the graduation night, even though they have different dates to the prom Amy wanted to be with him. That night everybody was so happy seeing themselves beautiful and handsome. Amy went to James' house and she wanted to tell what she really feels about him. That night was a big chance for her but all she did was to sit there with him while watching the stars and talking about their dreams. She looked into his eyes while he was saying his dream. He said he wanted to be rich and successful and how he wanted to get married and settle down. All that she did was to tell her dreams too and cuddle next to him. She went home very happy and very sad as well because she did not tell him how she really felt about him. How she really wanted to confess to him that night. So she let the days pass...

And so they went to college together and still wanted to confess to him but James was always with somebody else. After their graduation they had a new life. She was really happy for him and sad at the same time because she still did not told him her true feelings towards him. So James was leaving for his big job, she was watching him and her tears started to fall into her eyes.

Amy went home broken hearted. Two years had passed, Amy received an invitation,and it was a marriage invitation from James. Her heart broke into pieces for James will be getting married to someone else. Now she realized that she could never be with him and they could only be friends.Then after two months, she attended the wedding. It was a big occasion. There, she met the bride and of course James. She fell in love one more time. But she held it back so she would not spoil the happiest day of James life. She tried to have fun that night but her sadness was killing her inside watching him being happy with his wife.

After the wedding, everybody went home very happy but for Amy it was the saddest day of her life. And she thought that maybe she should try to forget him, she tried and tried to forget but she just cannot do it at all. After a week, she a got a note from James to meet him at the airport. And so while walking towards to the airport James came out of nowhere, hugged her so tight while saying his goodbyes because he needs to live a new life and how he was happy to meet her again. Amy smiled at him while tears coming down from her cheeks. But they promised to themselves to write letters to each other and so it went on for a year talking about the things that was happening to them and how they missed each other so bad. But after a couple of months she never got a letter from him and she got so worried. She was so hopeless to get news from James until she got a note one day that says: " Meet me at the fence where we first met". By then she was very determined to see him so there she went to the place where James and her first met. There, she saw James and they hugged each other so tight that they could not breathe anymore, and so again they talked, telling same old stories to each other. Then James told that he and his wife got divorced. Amy was very surprised to hear that and while listening to him she said to herself: " I'm falling in love again". When James said he was going to leave again, Amy cried but could not do anything and again,was not able to him how she really felt about him. Amy went to see him off and cried and just said:" I hate to see him leave again". After that James promised that he will visit Amy every vacation. She could not wait for him to come again. Every month James was seeing Amy, he always sees to it to spend his vacation with Amy only. They were both happy but still no confessions had been made...

So then one day, James did not show up. Amy received a call from a lawyer. He told that James died in a car accident while heading towards to the airport and she was needed for his last will. Her tears started to fall as she ran and went to James house. There she met James ex- wife again and the lawyer. Of course every thing was given to his family and ex-wife. James ex-wife told her that he was always talking about her since the day they got married, that James divorced her because he was not really in love with her. Then James ex-wife gave something to Amy, it was a diary, and it belongs to James. While Amy was on the plane heading towards home she started reading the diary and her tears starting to flow. The story in the diary begins when they first met, that James fell in love with her already, the very first time he saw her at the fence. And as she goes on turning the pages, more tears were falling down her face and her sadness deepens more and more and on the last page she found herself crying because of hurting too much for it says: " Today I will definitely confess to her, will tell her that I fell in love with you since the first day I saw you". And that was the day when he..... Died..... That's the day Amy was going find out what really James feel about her.....
