Sets eyes on a real beauty (written by a dear friend)
After graduating elementary, I transferred in another school and i had so many friends because i was "new face" in the campus. A lot were sending me letters and wanted to disclose themselves. One day i was hospitalized and had an operation. At the age of 13, I had to go through six sessions of chemotheraphy wherein the aftereffect of the medication is shedding of hair. Instead of thinking my impending death, i continued my studies. As my outer shell gradually change, the person who used to admire me had lost his affection. In despair, I always come in school in braids to hide the balding part, But there was one person who become my no 1 fan no matter how i unattractive I was. We go to the library together and while we research, the electric fan in front of us blows my braid and would hit his face countless times an i will never forget the way he expressed his irritation. Then after, i had to transfer in to another school then we lost our communication. 5 years after, this time we are already in college, and my painful medications were over and have surmounted cancer, have grown longer hair and developed into a stronger person. I met him once again. We were accidentally in a same bus. There were 5 boys who just came in and the 4 who happened to be his friends were seated in front. Since there was no vacant seats that last guy opted to sit at the back where i parked myself. He did not know it was me. He almost did not recognize me with my long hair down and not in braids this time when i tapped his shoulder. I can't remember what happened next all I remember how wonderfully good it felt to be with him once again and seeing me as a total different person. The man who loved me and set eyes on beauty in all my imperfections. Then we shared the joys of our first visit in star city (because I had to wait for my operation to be healed so it took time) This time, he would love to feel my hair as it hits his face in the "the viking-away ride." i can no longer see his irritated face but the smile of love to embrace. the one i hold dearly all these years. =)
