A Silent Love

I saw this story in my college notice board and I find it touching. So, I thought of sharing it.
From the very Begining, 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 cause the girl to be very upset. With that & the family's pressure, the girl often vent her anger on him. As for him, he only endure 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 leave, 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 realised 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 doctors 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 everytime 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 phonecalls,.. 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 learn 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 open 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.

Women are difficult to please...

A store named "Husband mart" has just opened where a woman may goto choose a husband from among many men. The store has sixfloors, and the men increase in positive attributes as theshopper ascends the flights. There is, however, a catch:As you open the door to any floor you may choose aman from that floor, but if you go up a floor, you cannot goback down except to exit the building.

So a woman goes to the shopping center to find a husband.On the first floor the sign on the door reads:Floor 1 - These men have jobs. The woman reads the sign and says toherself, "Well, that's better than my last boyfriend, but Iwonder what's further up?"

So up she goes.The second floor sign reads: Floor 2 - These menhave jobs and love kids.The woman remarks to herself, "That's great, but I wonderwhat's further up?" And up she goes again.

The third floor sign reads: Floor 3 - These men have jobs, lovekids and are extremely good looking. "Hmmm, better" she says."But I wonder what's upstairs?"

The fourth floor sign reads: Floor 4 - These menhave jobs, love kids, are extremely good looking and help withthe housework. "Wow!" exclaims the woman, "very tempting. BUT,there must be more further up!" And again she heads up anotherflight.

The fifth floor sign reads: Floor 5 - These men have jobs, lovekids, are extremely good looking, help with the housework andhave a strong romantic streak. "Oh, mercy me! But just think...what must be awaiting me further on?"

So up to the sixth floorshe goes.The sixth floor sign reads: Floor 6 - You are visitor number 123,974,389,012,345 to this floor.There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely asproof that women are impossible to please.Thank you for shopping at Husband Mart and have a nice day.
