..Unexpected..

Yesterday, something happened. I got a call in the morning, from someone who had been close to me for nearly 8 years now. Yes, he was my ex, my first love, and eventhough we the last time we broke up was 2 years ago, we still kept in touch here and then. It was sort of like a love/hate kinda relationship between us. But we had our limits, coz he had a girlfriend, and I knew better than to kacau their relationship, eventhough I deserved to be with him and I was his girlfriend before he two-timed me with that b*tch. Anyway, forget the past. Despite everything that had happened, he still remains as someone I am comfortable with, and who I can share anything with. So anyway....

He called yesterday morning and asked to meet up. The last time we met up with each other was a couple of months ago, and didn't contacted each other after that. So when he suddenly asked to meet up and seemed kinda desperate for me to do so, I was starting to get worried. What happened?

"I feel so tensed right now, and I need someone for me to talk to. And I realized that it was you. Can we meet up anytime? For lunch? Or tonight? I'll pick you up. Tomorrow night, or the night after, I don't mind. As long as I can meet you and talk to you." That was some of the sentences that he said that soften me. But unfortunately I already had a lunch date with a friend of mine, so I told him I would call him in a day or two. When I asked him again, what's up and why did he sounded quite upset, he just simply answered, "Its just that I need you the most now."

After we hang up the phone, I made a decision to meet him this afternoon, after I had lunch with my friend. So I called him up again, and asked to meet me somewhere in town. He sounded relieved and happy. So he must really-really needed to meet me badly. Huhu. So I picked up my friend, and went to Kluang Station at the Spring for lunch. And after a little while, he came from his work place and joined us there, while waiting for us to finish our lunch. Despite his cheery self, I saw that he is in some kind of pain.

So after we sent my friend back, he was being silent at first. Then, suddenly, he said it. The girl left him recently, and they were supposed to get married in the middle of August. I was so dumbstruck by what he said, and I cursed the b!tch in my heart. Damn you. After all these years, why you suddenly left him just weeks before your wedding day???

Suddenly it seemed just like my chick-lit novels that I read. About the bride or groom who decided that he or she doesn't want to get married only days or weeks before the wedding. I shook my head and just stared at him in disbelief. He told me the rest of the story, and I felt really-really mad towards that b*tch. How dare she. She was the one who took him from me, backstabbed me from behind when we already b*tched about him and decided to leave him when we found out that he was two-timing us both. And what she did? She forgave him, she accepted him again, being the ever most loyal and pure-hearted girlfriend, and that left me being the pathetic one, the weak one and the ultimate loser. Since then, I had an utmost hatred towards her. And she was being paranoid all the time. She had the mindset that I would take him from her, whenever he contacted me just to say hi or to ask how I've been. I hate her. She seemed like a goody-goody in front of him, oh how he didn't know her evil side.

So now, everything is finally clear in his eyes. How he thought the girl of his dreams, the one he compared her to me and said that she was way better than me, and she made him being a better person, and that girl was also the one who broke his heart, shattered his dreams to become her husband, and betrayed his trust and loyalty all these years. He cried a bit, apologized to me yesterday, and said again and again that I was the one that he can trust, and the one that he can talked to. My heart went with him, and I nearly cried myself yesterday. Yes, it's true that he was my first love, and I always have a tender spot for him in my heart. But things have changed now. I was over him, and now I considered him as my good friend, and I am protective of him as a dear friend of mine. I gave him advices, as he did to me countless times before this. He was my advisor, and I am his. And oh, I smsed the b*tch yesterday, but she didn't replied. I guess she knew the text was from me, eventhough I didn't introduce myself. Ha!

I hope he is able to get through this challenge of his life. And it also made me realized that exes CAN become good friends. Well, only some of them I think. We hang out some more yesterday, shared more of tales of our lives with each other. Well.. The conclusion of yesterday's event is, Karma may happened. If not sooner, then it would happened later. Now, I finally believed in karma, and witnessed it with my very eyes. To him, be tough, I know you can get through this. Take care of yourself, and I'm always here for you, as your friend and supporter.

Cheers. :)
