Yesterday one of my friend(Aspiring Director) asked
Me, Tell me some good love story ………..
After a long brainstorming discussion , We failed to
identify the love stories that are good indeed…………
In most of the stories we could see dumping girls, tragedy
ends, Artificial beginnings , cruel vilans……………..
I was wondering as if a good love story will
become a mission impossible to find…………………
Somehow, I remembered a story that is Nice ……………………….I
thought of sharing that story with You All…………..
He
met her at a party. She was so outstanding, many guys chasing after her, while
he was so normal, nobody paid attention to him.
At
the end of the party, he invited her to have coffee with him, she was surprised
but due to being polite, she promised. They sat in a nice coffee shop, he was
too nervous to say anything, she felt uncomfortable, and she thought to herself,
"Please, let me go home..."
Suddenly he asked the waiter, "Would
you please give me some salt? I'd like to put it in my coffee." Everybody stared
at him, so strange! His face turned red but still, he put the salt in his coffee
and drank it. She asked him curiously, "Why you have this hobby?" He replied,
"When I was a little boy, I lived near the sea, I liked playing in the sea, I
could feel the taste of the sea, just like the taste of the salty coffee. Now
every time I have the salty coffee, I always think of my childhood, think of my
hometown, I miss my hometown so much, I miss my parents who are still living
there." While saying that tears filled his eyes. She was deeply touched. That's
his true feeling, from the bottom of his heart. A man who can tell out his
homesickness, he must be a man who loves home, cares about home, has
responsibility of home... Then she also started to speak, spoke about her
faraway hometown, her childhood, her family.
That was a really nice talk, also a
beautiful beginning of their story. They continued to date. She found that
actually he was a man who meets all her demands; he had tolerance, was kind
hearted, warm, careful. He was such a good person but she almost missed him!
Thanks to his salty coffee! Then the story was just like every beautiful love
story, the princess married to the prince, and then they were living the happy
life... And, every time she made coffee for him, she put some salt in the
coffee, as she knew that's the way he liked it.
After 40 years, he passed away, left
her a letter which said, "My dearest, please forgive me, forgive my whole life's
lie. This was the only lie I said to you---the salty coffee. Remember the first
time we dated? I was so nervous at that time, actually I wanted some sugar, but
I said salt. It was hard for me to change so I just went ahead. I never thought
that could be the start of our communication! I tried to tell you the truth many
times in my life, but I was too afraid to do that, as I have promised not to lie
to you for anything... Now I'm dying, I afraid of nothing so I tell you the
truth, I don't like the salty coffee, what a strange bad taste... But I have had
the salty coffee for my whole life! Since I knew you, I never feel sorry for
anything I do for you. Having you with me is my biggest happiness for my whole
life. If I can live for the second time, still want to know you and have you for
my whole life, even though I have to drink the salty coffee
again."
Her
tears made the letter totally wet. Someday, someone asked her, "What's the taste
of salty coffee?" She replied, "It's sweet."
Hoping you to like the salt story as
well………..:-)
