“A STRANGE LOVE STORY”

 

One day in a small town in France lived a girl named Marie she was a teenage girl who was volunteering in an orphanage taking care and playing with kids. In there she meets Thomas who was studying to become a doctor and he visits the orphanage every single day to see the kids health, when they meet it was as they say “Love at first sight” or that what they believed it was.

 

When they started to get along, they find out they have a lot in common, one day Thomas fill himself with courage and ask Marie out on a date after finish their duty on the orphanage, Marie accepted the invitation. They went out to the cafeteria of the town; it was a beautiful afternoon, full of laughter and happiness. They talked about every subject they could ever imagined, about animals, their family, adventures they had it was imaginable how much they talked and they were very surprised that they were open that much with each other. It seems like they talk and tell the truth about their lives, like if they know each other from a long time.

 

Thomas felt that day something he haven’t fill with nobody else. The next day when he meet Marie on the orphanage he just froze and continued walking, Marie didn’t know what was happening and Thomas continued with this behavior for several weeks.

One day Marie was walking in the street looking for the dog some kid in the orphanage had lost, she was very upset because she was almost all afternoon looking for “Simba” who was the name of the dog when suddenly she heard a familiar laughter and when she turned around she saw Thomas holding hands with a woman but there was something in his face he seemed unhappy, like if the Thomas she knew or the Thomas who was crying of happiness in the coffee shop was long death. Suddenly she saw a little boy running and hugging Thomas, she froze, she didn’t know what to think and suddenly Thomas turned around and saw Marie.

 

He started running after her but Marie seemed calmed and she was walking a little bit fast, when Thomas grab her arm and say “Marie I’m so sorry I didn’t tell you, but I…” Stop, it’s ok. Marie said “You don’t have to say anything at all”. “No let me explain” Thomas said.

Thomas meet Jessica (the girl in the cafeteria) a long time ago they were neighbors they go out a couple of times, but Thomas didn’t feel anything serious for her when suddenly Jessica found out she was pregnant with Thomas’s child, they didn’t marry but they move out together and raise that little boy named Francis, he told Marie how unhappy he was with her but his boy make him feel like he was alive, like he has something to fight for.

 

They continued talking when suddenly Marie started to cry and said “I really thought we were truth and sincere with each other, that we told everything important form our lives, and the most important thing of your life you didn’t told me about”. I’m so sorry Marie. Thomas said.

Please stop. Marie said. I have something to tell you too. Marie told Thomas that 4 years ago she traveled to Milan with her sister and she had a really good and amazing trip there she wanted to go and lived there and then she met a boy named who got her pregnant and run away the moment he heard she was pregnant, she knew getting pregnant mean to get out of her house being a disgrace for her family, they will no accept her anymore the only solution to have a normal life was to abort the baby, but she didn’t she couldn’t abort the baby so she kept it and named him “Thomas” and the little baby was waiting for her in her house. When Thomas heard the story he studded there looking at Marie with out saying a word when Marie said. “We had the same story and it was funny he connect the way we did but we didn’t talk about the most important thing of our lives.”
