She
was not beautiful.
Nothing about her was extraordinary.
Nothing
about her made her stand out in a crowd.
She grew up in
a family of six. The eldest, she learnt responsibility at n early age.As she grew stronger, and brighter, she instilled
a sort of light cheer to whomever she met. She was not beautiful.
But she made others feel beautiful about themselves.
She meets a rebel
boy who thinks he's all man. Befriending him, she teaches him how to read, a little boost the man needed to go to college.
They became friends fast and she fell,fast in love with her rugged, handsome student.
The "man" then
finds himself in a dilemma. He soon found himself in love with a girl. A girl so beautiful, she turned even the grouchiest
men's head. Her hair was a halo of light around her, Her eyes the bluest blue of ocean.
Like
an angel he tells his tutor.....Like a beautiful angel.
The girl swallows a lump at her throat. She was not beautiful.
She
did not possess the heart of the one she loved
But she did not care. As long as he was happy,
She would be or so she
tried to.
She
helped him write the most beautiful letter to his angel
All the time envisioning that it was she herself receiving those
very letters. And so the girl helped him choose the right words,buy the right gifts for his angel...His angel brought him
much joy
And much pain to the girl who cried behind her smiles.
But that never stopped her from giving more than she
will ever receive.
Then
one day, all hell broke loose. The angel he loved left him for another man, A richer, more successful man. The boy was stunned.
He was so hurt he did not speak for days. The girl went to him. He cried on her shoulder and she cried with him. He hurt and
so did she.
Time
went by. And so the wounds heal.
The boy realizes something about his friend/tutor he never realized before. How her
laughter sounded heavenly Or how her smiles brightened up the darkest days. Or simply how beautiful, yes beautiful she looked
to him!
Beautiful.
This
plain, simple girl was beautiful to him. And he began to fall.
Fall so in love with this beautiful girl. On one day, he
picked up all his courage to see her. He walked to her house, nervous and fidgeting. Running his thoughts over and over in
his head. He was going to tell her how beautiful she was to him. He was going to tell her how wonderfully
in love he was with her.
He knocked.
No one was home.
The
next day he found out, The beautiful girl he fell in love with had a brain aneurysm that put her into a coma. The doctors
were grim and the family decided to let her go. One final time he got to see her.
He held her hand.
He
stroked her hair,
And he cried for this beautiful girl.
He cried for he will never see her smile or hear her speak
his name.
He
cried.
But it was too late.
Look
around you.
Aren't there a lot of plain faces?
Take a good look ......A real good look or you might miss out
On that
beautiful person.
