Always Greener
PART I
———————————————-
The sky is blue
The air is fresh
The grass is green, always green…
but
Is the sky on the other side bluer?
Is the air on the other side fresher?
Is the grass on the other sider greener? Always Greener?
<In this life, we are always unsatisfied with the life we are living, there will always be someone else living a life of our dreams. Next time you see that, ask yourself, do you really want that?>
“Hehe, yes I do”
Saying such statement without a thought. He, Will, always wanted to be a super star, always wanted to be the middle of the attention. To get such attention, he loves going against the grain, not saying he’d break laws, but he never follow trends.
Lying on the green grass on the deserted oval, admiring the clouds that passes by, one of he’s usual doings on a Sunday afternoon.
Lying next to him, a beautiful girl. Abigail.
“You serious? Why don’t you like your life? Am I not good enough? You know there’s a a line for me right? so you should just 好自为知”
“No no, your perfect, I love you. But don’t you think there’s a better life out there?”
“I’m sure life’s has it’s own possibilities, and that possibility is endless, but what do you mean?”
“Ok, let me ask you something, and make sure you answer me honestly, and don’t be pissed ok?”
“er..ok then, what is it”
“Do you miss being single? Do you miss the whole having a crush on someone and like, flirt with them, try to get them to like you back, you know? the whole thrill, the whole…yea”
*looks blankly*
“Are you pissed? i told you not to pissed lah, i’m not trying to dump you, i’m just..just..making conversation”
“No hun, i was just thinking about it. You know what, yea I do miss it, but what makes me not to miss is your smile”
“HAHA~~! Com’n~~! That’s so corny~~! haha, send shivers down my spine~~!”
“Just coz you don’t know how to be romantic…”
“you were serious? haha, I can be romantic~~! …..um… *puppy eyes* I LOVE YOU HONEY~~!!!”
“er..yea, wateva”
“Anyways. Think about it right? Our first relationship, and we’ve already gone out with each other for so long….everyone else is breaking up and re-falling in love…how come we haven’t even had a fight yet?”
“Coz we are deeply in love?”
“Seriously, i can’t take this corny crap>.<”
“Hmp”
“Do you think we will get married?”
“Er…i haven’t really thought that far yet…”
“Yea, neither have I, but if this goes on, i reckon we have a good chance….Do you believe we will get married?”
“YES =)”
“See, this is what i mean, don’t you think we are missing out on all the heartbreaks and the re-crushing?”
“No..not really”
“Com’n, think about it, if we know we will love each other forever… Then why not use our youth to enjoy what young people suppose to enjoy..”
“What? Guilt free sex?”
“Haha, just the whole thing i said before”
“Where are you going with this?”
“I reckon, we should separate for a while…Live life as singletons again, and see what fate brings us. Enjoy life now, and after a period of time, after all the ups and downs, we can come back together and treasure what we have now…like they said, no pain no gain right?”
“I don’t know, that’s a really stupid idea you know?”
“Don’t trust me? Haha, I guess you have the rights not to trust me, with all these girls eyeing me everyday..”
“In your dreams~~! I’m just scared you’d cry your eyes out when you see me with another guy”
“I promise i won’t~~! I trust you honey~~! *shivers, no more honey*”
“This is a really big decision you know…what you just going to go enjoy/experiment life at other people’s expenses? What if another girl falls in love with you? You just going to break her heart?”
“Well, that’s the genius of the plan…I’m not ‘breaking her heart’, i’m letting her enjoy life!”
“This is really a big decision, I will have to think about it…”
“Glad you are just not shooting it down~~! I know you trust me, and you know that I trust you too”
. . .
They spent the whole afternoon just lying there, discussing which cloud looks like each other.
That’s their Sunday Afternoon, every week, without fail.
But this could be the last of it, for a long time…
