A LOVE STORY

Talking about a love story, I have had a couple of stories to tell, so I can say that every love story seems to be sweet until you meet a bitter end, or ends… I remember how focused I was in school until I met this girl that completely swept me off my fit. She had a twin who would always hang around my friends and to be honest I did not even notice her until exams started and she and her sister had to come live with their coursemate who was my neighbour in order to always meet up for exams. I forgot to mention that she stayed off camp so I think it was one of the many reasons I never got to meet her before then.

When exams started and everyone was talking she would prefer to stay alone from the rest which made me wonder why exactly. Turned out she did not really like crowded places unlike her sister who was very jovial and free with everyone. On a particular night she decided to cook for everyone, and when I got home she told me she cooked and if I would like to eat. I have never been known to turn down a food offer so of course I accepted, but when I started eating I immediately regretted why I ever accepted. I have no words to describe what I ate that day but I just had to force myself to eat and when she asked me how it was I just said “You did well” not to make her feel bad.

After I finished I decided to get to know her more in order to know how to tell her she needed to improve on her cooking. Getting to know her, I understood that she was spoilt silly from home and thus never really stayed in the kitchen for any reason, but she really wanted to cook if given the chance. To help her, I told her to watch my neighbour (her coursemate) cook and try to help in order to improve her cooking, but she insisted on trying it with me and that was how we became close. After every exam, she would cook for both of us, since she was the one spending the money I did not really mind, but that was how we became so close after a lot of purging from the nonsense she cooked. The relationship however ended awfully, but thinking about how we started, those were really great moments to relive.
