The Mysterious Woman (Original story)

in story •  7 years ago 

Life has become complicated, obstacles are always present, reminding me of where I come from and where I want to go. I come from a family of scarce resources, where there were days that we went without eating, where there was no bed, our only companion were the ground floors and our only roof pieces of cardboard, That half helped us, but in times of rain, it was inevitable that we soak and consequently our ground floor became mud. 

Yes, it was a really difficult life, which taught me to be stronger and to have determination for everything I wanted to achieve. I've never really been a man who falls in love, has no feelings for anyone, well, just my parents! They preferred to stop eating and dressing, to give me everything I needed, I definitely have a lot to thank them for making me a better person.

But all at some point change, while working in a big company were really the deal was wonderful, I loved working there. On a normal day, my gaze went for a moment, I passed a beautiful woman and quite elegant with a beautiful white dress, a little older, even though it was noticeable that she cared very well. Now, I didn't know who I was, curiosity would kill me to know who that woman was. Every night I remembered her, desiring to see her again for a little while, that had become one of my desires most yearned for, but surely, I am aware that that moment could never happen again. Yes, I know what you think, I fell in love at first sight, but I keep hoping that someday I look and become part of me. 

So, I decided to find out who was that mysterious woman, who has me in love and that really makes me inevitable not to think about her every moment. To my surprise, that the mysterious woman was nothing more and nothing less, that the owner of the company, when I heard that, I realized that possibly that love was impossible, because, your husband is my boss direct in the company and really did not feel like creating a problem unnecessary, so I decided to forget about it and go on with my life, because I won't deny that I like it too much, but I can't run out of work.

The days were passing and nothing appeared, but I was certain that at some point I would see her again. So they turned my days, long and hopeful to see her again, until I spent so much time that I lost hope of seeing her again. But from one moment to another, while serving me a cup of coffee, I found out that the owner was very ill, as she had a cancer that was doing her a lot of damage. Without doubt this news, I felt like a glass of cold water, did not know that thing or do. 

Immediately I had to go to the bathroom, because I could not contain my tears, first time I had wept for someone, that the truth, I do not even know, I only saw it once, but for me it meant much more than you imagine. So, find a way to go to visit her wherever she was, it does seem like a crazy idea! But I want to see her again. One of the co-workers, told me where I was, so don't hesitate to go, I'm aware that she won't know who I am, but no matter, I want to show her my support, I'm willing to risk it. 

So, I stopped quite early, not to go to work, but to go to visit, I was very anxious, I did not know what could happen or how she would react. I even bought her some flowers and wrote her a letter telling her everything she felt and what she meant to me. But apparently it was too late, she had lost the battle to cancer. My face changed immediately, I had come in hopes of seeing her, but I ended up taking a surprise.

From that moment, so sad, and I would not be the same, my desire to know her vanished. Yes, it's true, I never met her directly, but it was inevitable not to have feelings for her. That was the only woman I fall in love without really knowing it, it sounds pretty crazy the truth, but is that in the heart is not sent. The only thing I have left, is the letter written to her, reminds me of what I can come to happen, but that since things of life was not given, if I am sure, is that I will never forget that woman in the white dress.
