A Silent Love


From the very beginning, the girl's family objected
strongly on her dating this guy. Saying that it has
got to do with family background & that the girl
will have to suffer for the rest of her life if she
were to be with him.
Due to family's pressure, the couple quarrel very
often. Though the girl love the guy deeply, but
she always ask him: "How deep is your love for
me?"
As the guy is not good with his words, this often
causes the girl to be very upset. With that & the
family's pressure, the girl often vents her anger
on him. As for him, he only endures it in silence.
After a couple of years, the guy finally graduated
& decided to further his studies in overseas.
Before leaving, he proposed to the girl: "I'm not
very good with words. But all I know is that I love
you. If you allow me, I will take care of you for the
rest of my life. As for your family, I'll try my best
to talk them round. Will you marry me?"
The girl agreed, & with the guy's determination,
the family finally gave in & agreed to let them get
married. So before he leaves, they got engaged.
The girl went out to the working society, whereas
the guy was overseas, continuing his studies.
They sent their love through emails & phone calls.
Though it's hard, but both never thought of giving
up.
One day, while the girl was on her way to work,
she was knocked down by a car that lost control.
When she woke up, she saw her parents beside
her bed. She realized that she was badly injured.
Seeing her mum crying, she wanted to comfort
her. But she realized that all that could come out
of her mouth was just a sigh. She has lost her
voice......
The doctor says that the impact on her brain has
caused her to lose her voice. Listening to her
parents' comfort, but with nothing coming out
from her, she broke down.
During the stay in hospital, besides silence
cry,.....it's still just silence cry that companied
her. Upon reaching home, everything seems to be
the same. Except for the ringing tone of the
phone. Which pierced into her heart every time it
rang. She does not wish to let the guy know. &
not wanting to be a burden to him, she wrote a
letter to him saying that she does not wish to
wait any longer.
With that, she sent the ring back to him. In
return, the guy sent millions & millions of reply,
and countless of phone calls,.. all the girl could
do, besides crying, is still crying....
The parents decided to move away, hoping that
she could eventually forget everything & be
happy.
With a new environment, the girl learnt sign
language & started a new life. Telling herself
everyday that she must forget the guy. One day,
her friend came & told her that he's back. She
asked her friend not to let him know what
happened to her. Since then, there wasn't
anymore news of him.
A year has passed & her friend came with an
envelope, containing an invitation card for the
guy's wedding. The girl was shattered. When she
opened the letter, she saw her name in it instead.
When she was about to ask her friend what's
going on, she saw the guy standing in front of
her. He used sign language telling her "I've spent
a year's time to learn sign language. Just to let
you know that I've not forgotten our promise. Let
me have the chance to be your voice. I Love You.
With that, he slipped the ring back into her finger.
The girl finally smiled.
