Love story that failed

It was raining when I saw her first. I got stuck on my way home. I rushed to take shelter under a nearby tree. There came she, completely drenched. Her brown cascade of hair all wet and water dripping from them , her big sparkling eyes were so full of expressions . She was so pretty and so cute. I fell for her at that very moment. She was shivering a bit. Her eyes showed she was worried. May be it was due to the rain and it was getting dark.

Something came to my mind, I went ahead and “hi, I am Johny”.

She hesitated a bit, but then she replied “Hey, I am Lucy”.

 “Do you stay nearby?”.

“Yes, in that big pink house at the end of street”.

 “Are you worried?”.

 “I have never been alone this late. I am so worried, how will I go home”.

 “Don’t worry, I’ll take you home”.

That was just the starting, I saw her often. I fell in love with her. Each morning I woke up in the hope of meeting her. Sometimes I used to roam around her house in the hope of catching a glimpse of that beauty. I got to see her sometimes but I never got to speak to her again. All she did on seeing me was smiling back. I was getting desperate day by day. I wanted her in my life. I decided to propose her. It was so tough for me to spend my days without her.

Finally one day I saw her alone, I gathered all my guts and went up to her. I asked her if she is alone and I can accompany her to her house. She agreed. On the way, under that tree, I stopped, I kneeled down and spoke my heart out. To my astonishment, she smiled, kissed on my cheeks and said “You are my hero”.

“Phewwwwwwww………there I go”,I was on cloud nine.

We started meeting everyday. Sometimes we would go for a walk in the park, while sometimes I waited for her outside her home while she used to silently run away from her house. Days passed like years and I was so happy.

Suddenly, something happened. She told me she was leaving the town. She had tears in her big black eyes. “What?Why?No……you can’t go”, but she had to because her family was leaving. “What if she stayed back with me, she smiled but said it was not possible” I cried like a baby, all hell broke loose ….she left me.

Here I am , Johny the Alsatian ,still waiting for her while Lucy my love ,the golden retriever went away with her owner.
